Yes....long story do you really want to know?
It is really hard to keep the sparks going and I've said this over and over in my responses and profile. I know it's not all his fault but he has ADD, PE, ED but has viagra, we were going through therapy and we had to stop because he was working 12-15 hours a day and just recently getting back to having dinner at home, now we still have some issues to work out. But after all is said and done I've been very patient and always try to spice things up. It just doesn't seem to be enough and I'm left frustrated.

Although I'm not one of them, I do have friends who are in those types of marriages and they say that it is just too hard to 'make time' for sex or that they are just too exhausted after working all week to even consider having sex and have 'avoided' it for so long, that it has never seemed a problem...I think that if I were in that kind of marriage, I would either try really hard to fix it or determine if it was a marriage I wanted to continue being in for another 10+ years...:D

I am in a sexless marriage - but I've been spearated from him for 4 years now - so I'm not sure that qualifies under CNN's poll! But it was sexless for a year prior to my leaving too, so maybe I do qualify!

I personally just had a aversion aversion to sharing a bed with a leech!

I am in sexless marriage... Why? because i stop feeling for him after all betryals and not being there for me. When you lose sense of being close to each other and sense of man which is exectly "next to you".... you just cant let him touch you because he is like stranger anymore... its disgusting anymore...

no but I'm not married.

But I thik the reason why there are so many people like this is becasue of stress and worry and just trying to keep it together so they don't sink.

I'd like to know what percentage that is of the total and if they have a figure on those under or over two years long. I've never met the woman who wouldn't flat wear her man out with sex to catch him but forgot it even existed when it came to keeping him. Married or otherwise.

I was married 19yrs and have stayed devorced the 18yrs sense. Primarily for the improvement in my sex life. As frustrating as it was to live with a woman I'd love 24/7 who I couldn't touch but once every other week... Date one once a week and she'll want to be touched nearly every time you're with her. For me, out of sight out of mind works. Love the one you're with and when she wont let you,,,, just go fish'n.

Finally let me say, newly wed excluded, I've NEVERRRRRRR met the husband who complained about too much sex. On the other too little is a regular topic. I never cheated on my wife but life after death has taught me I'll ever have another...... At least not untill I finaly get tired of sex or just too plain old.

When married, I had sex all the time, so personally I cant answer...BUT I know a couple that is in this situation, and it has been years since they have had sex. I guess from what I understand, the wife is not longer attracted or wanting sex due to medical issues. The guy stays, cuz he loves her...

When our marriage was at it's lowest point, I couldn't stand him, and we went two years without sex. In retrospect, I understand that he "went beta on me." He let me walk all over his spineless self, and I couldn't stand him for it. I was repulsed by him, his obesity, his voice, his inability to stand up to his business partners.

I resolved myself to get over the hate, and now we have sex about X5/weekly.
