“My wife had uterine surgery in our second year of marriage, and her medications were slowly affecting her sexual desire. Indeed, many. She no longer wanted intimacy with me. It has killed me since.”
“My husband only used sex to cover up his lies or make up after fights. He constantly used this tactic since he knew I'd comply. This saddens me since I thought he loved sex with me because I was pretty. It crushes my heart that he did it to avoid battles soon. Well, no more.”
My wife is lovely but too cold. I'm annoyed that she doesn't like sex as much as I do. I tried to talk to her about this, but she got defensive and hurt. I stopped having sex with her. Instead, I masturbated.”
I no longer love my hubby. I'm over him, but I can't picture divorce. His character and fatherhood are excellent. Just quit having sex with him. I find it crazy to sex someone I no longer love. He doesn't object. His schedule is too full.”
