I think there’s hope but a couple would really have to work at saving their marriage. They would have to work on the hidden problems in their marriage and communicate. I think a sexless marriage works for very few people. Most folks would leave after some time

Wife and I been married 40 + years and sexless approx 28 years.
I wouldn’t say were married were more like brother sister thing. But in any case were still together. And fairly happy !!! Now getting to old for that sex crap.

Most therapists say, once the money is gone, the sex is gone also.

..this is my story. Married 13 yrs, total length of relationship 16yrs. NO sex with my wife for last 6 years since our one and only boy was born. We’re on the verge of splitting up, money is a big problem as she’s never looked at our accounts and has had luxuries over years all the time she has been out of work too. Many issues from her side effecting our togetherness and she’s opened her eyes to this, its as though she’s awaknened, never recalls the past and our plans, she has become pursessed or spiritually awakened. It’s screwed my head for years now. The love died many years ago after many good years together and very good sex life (about 10yrs). Now I consider myself happy having had the relationship but I can’t see a sexless, loveless marraige working out for much longer. I read the MJ quote; we come into this world knowing we are loved and we leave this world knowing the same, this means anything inbetween can be dealt with.

Our Marriage was filled with passion for the first two years then my wife started to mess around and that passion died from her to me. It has been a struggle to live with her continuous unfaithfulness until 8 years ago when she came home from a 14 month affair in another state. I had divorsed her then we began dating again. Long story short she says she loves me we got remarried and the passion died again. She gained over a hundred pounds in a year and is still growing. I dont believe there is another man in her life but we have a virtual sexless marriage for the past 7 years. She had no interest at all in sex, this cant last! Oh we have been married now for 39 years (moth marriages). It is very hard to live with her finishing my sentenses and never listening to just me. I dont get it.

There was a Jewish (Rabbi) expert on TV last night

Aren’t all Rabbis Jewish?

Rabbi Schmuley is his name. His book seems aimed at no-sex marriages.

There was a Jewish (Rabbi) expert on TV last night claiming that one-third of marriages are sexless and that lack of sex is the most common reason for divorce. In theory, it’s plausible, but if he is right, then many people are getting married for the wrong reasons.
