Quote From: jusbreatheWhen it comes to sex, I'm the one that wants it more than my husband does. I understand that he's tired from working all day, but I'm also tired at the end of the day also. My day is just as hectic, if not more than his. I'm tired of always being the one to initiate sex. I wish he would sometimes. I also get tired of the rejection. It really hurts! I know that some people might read this and think that he might be having an affair. I've known my husband all of my life, and I know that's not the case. He just doesn't have a sex drive anymore. I just don't understand that, because he's not but 23 years old. I don't know if it could be a chemical imbalance or what. I've tried to get him to see a doc, but he says that's silly. The whole sex issue is really putting a strain on our marriage. If their is anyone out there with any advice, please e-mail me.
If your husband is 23 I will assume you are also young. My husband and I are in our 40's, not old but maybe more seasoned. So I'll ask. Does he treat you well? Seem to care about you . Do you have kids? Do you think the stress of being "responsible" for keeping a paycheck going or maybe working a job he hates could be the problem. You may be on to something with the chemical imbalance theory. It takes a lot of energy to cope with and hide undiagnosed depression.
I have told my husband to go ahead and divorce me if he really wants to hear a judge laugh his butt off......"Your Honor, she doesn't cheat on me, drink, do drugs, gamble or shop our money away. She does take care of most of the responsibilities at home, takes good care of our kids, stands by me in the rough spots, and puts out at least once a week whether shes interrested in doing it or not (sometimes just to keep me from pouting like a 5 year old.) and mowes the yard once a week in the summer so I don't have to and mowing our yard requires a tractor........but I still want out because she wont act like a porn star every night. PU-LEESE! Wouldn't you laugh?
If you love somebody and are without -a-doubt committed you accept the things you can't change sometimes and go on with life. Would you be better off without. Only if sex means more to you than love.
