"Sometimes couples become too content and end up more friends but still in love it's not uncommon IMO. " I agree with this. Plus if there are children involved it can be tiring if they don't get help from family, so they can get a weekend away or whatever. Could be loads of reasons but they would still love each other | |||

"course they can be. love is more than sex, way more. in fact, if sex is the only thing holding a relationship together i'd say that's a bigger problem." I agree that sex isn't the be all and end all, but, to me it's a massively important part and an essential part of the 'cement' that helps to hold the relationship together.... In my opinion, If they don't desire one-another anymore or want to demonstrate their love/affection or whatever, why bother? | |||

In my opinion, If they don't desire one-another anymore or want to demonstrate their love/affection or whatever, why bother? " to you, and others, maybe for but intimacy and affection come in many other forms without a need for sex also. i've been in mostly highly sexual relationships, it's ideal as i love sex. but i've also been in a one relationship where we hardly had sex and i felt loved also without any problems. desire is only needed to objectify a person. this is one of the reasons why sex often does peter out in relationships as they objectify each other less and get to know each other as a person and different types of intimacy creep in. sex is really only needed to breed also, it's the main reason why we have urges for sex. if they don't want any kids or any more kids they've no need for sex either. i know that sounds a bit basic but sometimes it's true. | |||

He seems to be dis-satisfied that she only wants sex once or so a month when he is home, but doesn't want to push the issue and just accepts it. | |||

I think that he has tried to communicate with her about it and she refuses to discuss it, Just simply says "I don't need/want it" I also find it very strange that they appear not to have any sexual intimacy or variety, for example, she will rarely do oral (on him) because "she doesn't like it"?? So I think that on the rare occasion that they do get intimate, it's just boring, straightforward sex with no 'play' included. | |||

"OP I assume the male is cheating with said wife with you and justifying the reason? Now you are trying to justify it ? That's how it's come across to me. Do you challenge him when he tells you he tries to talk about it but she won't by saying what type of talking is this? Why not face up to her and say we either talk about it or I'm leaving? How is he showing her that this is serious stuff??? I ask that of a lot of cheaters I come across..How much love is there if you can't face the person and say "I'm struggling, in unhappy, I'm having urges to cheat, we need to sort this somehow".. Why does loving someone only have to happen when you are tied together by a paper or label? Why can't you have respect for the person, seperate, and still love them? Divorcing amicably and staying loving friends is not impossible!! It's all down to the unhappy party to really bring the issue to the forefront and DEAL with it! " No I am not with him, nor have we really ever been. We talk/chat a lot and have met on previous occasions, but don't anymore for a variety of reasons. It's very complicated. He says that they are "in love" and kiss and cuddle regularly, but she doesn't want sex which he is dis-satisfied with. On the occasion that he has tried to talk she merely says "I don't want it" and that is it. He also says that he would never leave because apart from the sex, they are happy. He has cheated with many people (some from fab, but other sites as well) over a period of 4 years before i even met him. | |||

"Sometimes couples become too content and end up more friends but still in love it's not uncommon IMO. I agree with this. Plus if there are children involved it can be tiring if they don't get help from family, so they can get a weekend away or whatever. Could be loads of reasons but they would still love each other " RESPECT... children should be paramount in such relationship especially if they're under 16. They look to their parents to provide stability and certainty in their lives. The sex can always be outsourced to a 3rd party . | |||

"course they can be. love is more than sex, way more. in fact, if sex is the only thing holding a relationship together i'd say that's a bigger problem." I'd love a sexless relationship. Sex causes far too many resentments and issues. As long as both people are happy it doesn't matter what other people think. | |||

"Is this is the same man you've started posts on before? There are usually three sides to a story, in this case his side, her side and the truth. He's an habitual cheater so will say what he feels necessary to get what he wants. But assuming there is an element of truth to the story, all long term relationships will have their peaks and troughs of sexual activity, frequently leaving the country for work puts a huge burden on the one left behind, I don't think you are ever going to really understand what goes on in anyone else's relationship. One thing I question (more generally), is why are there so many cheating spouses who claim that their other half have never been adventurous or had a high sex drive, if it was that important to them why get married in the first place. Would you really connect with someone so deeply, enough to marry them if you were such a mis-match sexually?" Seems to me that it may not be sex itself they have lost interest in, but sex with their spouse.... | |||

"For me personally, in the absence of medical issues, not wanting to have sex with my partner would indicate that there are relationship issues which need to be resolved. I can't answer for others, but to me, a healthy sex life is part and parcel of a loving relationship, lying, cheating, and an inability to communicate aren't." Exactly this. | |||

"course they can be. love is more than sex, way more. in fact, if sex is the only thing holding a relationship together i'd say that's a bigger problem." This. If I may add too... That sex is only a piece of the relationship puzzle. Some relationships don't have sex at all and are very fufilling, many would say far more fulfilling. Testify many who have sex on here...It can be and is very shallow....its just an act and for most has no other meaning than self gratification. This can be said in some relationships that have sex but nothing else, less fulfilling than good love and companionship. There's a few people I love but don't have sex with them and I don't think if I did that it would enhance the present relationship one little bit. Some relationships are lucky to have all the components in it and they are very very special. I think OP that your assumption leaves out far to many issues that many of us do not understand unless were walking in their shoes. Not everyone's needs are being met in sex or in a sex less relationship either. | |||

Why would a very sexual person be with someone they know right from the start isn't open sexually. " As a man i would anecdotally tell you that from my circle of friends the most common reasons for getting married were #1 inertia and #2 the girl was well liked by his parents and they pressu_ed him to marry her. Neither of those reasons are going to lead to a great sex life. I've mentioned this to engaged friends and been told "sex isn't that important". 3 years later and they have the gold membership card at the local whore house. | |||

"Sometimes couples become to content and end up more friends but still in love it's not uncommon IMO. its very common I know a lot like this and happy. To them the sex is just a small part of life and they like other things better." That's fine. There is no rule about how much sex makes a good content relationship. However, when one ends up cheating it's clearly not working anymore.. And I still don't get how someone can just accept "I don't want to talk about it" from a partner?? Why not respond with "well if we don't I'm thinking of going elsewhere" and then see if discussion starts. You can't just make a small feeble attempt and then rush to cheat. If the unsatisfied party doesn't make a genuine attempt to discuss this and work it out, I would Suspect their intention was to cheat all along.. | |||

"course they can be. love is more than sex, way more. in fact, if sex is the only thing holding a relationship together i'd say that's a bigger problem. I agree that sex isn't the be all and end all, but, to me it's a massively important part and an essential part of the 'cement' that helps to hold the relationship together.... In my opinion, If they don't desire one-another anymore or want to demonstrate their love/affection or whatever, why bother? " Totally agree with you . It's all very well to say there's more to love than sex , but one can love ones dog or cat , or ones friends and family without sex quite comfortably . But in a relationship , sex is the one thing that differentiates that relationship from all others . May as well just be friends imo . | |||

" One thing I question (more generally), is why are there so many cheating spouses who claim that their other half have never been adventurous or had a high sex drive, if it was that important to them why get married in the first place. Would you really connect with someone so deeply, enough to marry them if you were such a mis-match sexually?" Because people's sex drives and preferences change over time. You may be happy with vanilla sex once a week when you marry at 18, doesn't mean you will still be happy with it 20 years later | |||

"I am curious....and I do know/expect this topic to be somewhat controversial... Would you say that a couple (married or not, but together a decade or so) both in their 30's with no medical issues or whatever to make sex difficult who have sex very infrequently (approx once a month, some months not at all) can say that they are still "in-love". There is allegedly plenty of kissing and cuddles, but no sex which I find a little inc_edulous to be honest!! To me if they are able to, but the desire is no longer there,for whatever reason, there is a massive, fundamental problem with the marriage/relationship?! Your thoughts? " Sex is not the bee all and end all in a relationship personally I think sex should take a strong part but others may be different but different people feel different things and express love differently. So because I have not been in a relationship with no sex or little. Sex so I can't really say. I can say out my relationships I have had I thought I loved each until I meet my ex and I never fealt this feelings before.. | |||

"So many comments....some bang on the money...many clearly have no clue what so ever....if they are lucky they may well stay that way...sexless relationships are not uncommon...and just sometimes no amount of talking....pills...potions will do any good what so ever..........but and it's a very big but you still love one another dearly....for the one still wanting sex it is both heartbreaking and soul destroying....is swinging the answer......no it isnt....does it help....yes it can....i expect very few will understand this....and as i say if your lucky you may never have to..........but don't bank on it...life has a habit of putting you in places situations you never thought in a million years you would end up.....as the saying goes "walk a mile in my shoes"....." Great answer this here especially about will swinging help | |||

"I think that if a marriage works and everyone in it is more or less happy its nobody elses business. I don't think we should expect other people to conform to our idea of a good marriage." Absolutely People have a tendency to vocalise their own fears and try and project these on other's relationship. Each relationship is slightly different It is like someone who is in an S&M relationship suggesting that unless the husband is able to flog his wife every night before sex, the relationship is doomed for failure Now where is that flogger? - Mrs. J - | |||

"We sometimes go a month or so without sex. We don't fret over it. We have busy lives with us both working full time, kids, hobbies, housework etc. I think I'd only get concerned if we went without for a few months. Katie." I think the true test is how often you fuck on holiday. Day to day some people have busier lives than others, but if you don't fuck on holiday when you aren't busy then i'd say it's a warning sign. | |||

And that's fine , as it's your life and that makes you happy . The minute housework , hobbies , kids and work stops us having sex , we would take a look at our priorities and do something about it . Once a month would be a nightmare ! We don't go more than a day , and haven't done in the seven years we have been together . | |||
