Hey man,
First off, you need to rid your life of unsupportive people, get anyone who is non-supportive out of your life. The surround yourself with people who support you, who help you, people who totally accept you and your situation just like i...
Hello Db,
Just wanted to check in with you man and see how your doing, hope things are working their way out. It will all work out in the end.
Take care, David
OK. My first thought when reading this, was that maybe your wife is not attracted to men in general, and is not feeling loving toward you because she is really not finding the connection she needs emotionally etc. Just a thought. Something to talk...
Thanks BeeBee, lucky I received both of your messages at the same time. I found your reply to db very inspiring. May God bless you for using your pain to reach out to others.
I am glad for your sake I read this. I am a woman who had the same problem as your wife for decades. My problem came from being raped hundreds of times. However God healed me and I am normal now. If you are committed to staying then shift your foc...

You definitely have alot going on and I may be a woman . however , because of my husbands Diabetes( diagnosis 3 years ago) he gave up on all of the intimacy. I never dreamed in a million years this would have happened and like you I will n...
I am not sure that I can be one to comment. I have a very similar situation, and all I can say is that sexless marriage is not uncommon. I found this website after reading "Secrets Women Keep", Jill Hubbard, and I am desperately seeking help and d...
Kathy, I'm alittle confused about your reply to David? Are you talking to the the man in the "sexless marriage"? What advice or misguided advice did he give? I'm really new to this forum so maybe I totally missed something here? If I did, please b...
To David,
You seem to need some help yourself. You should be more diligent about advice you give. It might only be an online forum, you are still morally responsible for any misguided advice you give. Prayerfully consider this and future replies.

- I feel very sad for you. Physical intimacy is very important in a marriage and our bodies do not belong to ourselves according to scripture but to each other. Did you have a good experience in the beginning of your marriage? If so, maybe your wife has a medical problem or depression. I hope you can keep the dialogue open on this issue. I heard about a book on communication in marriage on Christian radio. It said to express ourselves to our mates, use "I feel..." and "I need..." messages. You might also ask if there's anything on her mind. Maybe she is upset about something. Women sometimes have trouble responding if they are upset, angry, or tired. I'm sad that you are both missing out on the feelings of connection and love.
Maybe you could see a counselor and practice ways to discuss this or other issues. It sounds like you are both on hold presently. You could find ways to bring it up again without anyone feeling guilty or pressured.
