i've never understood the "haven't had sex in years" thing. i know we all get busy, have kids, life goes on...but years! that's crazy!
Â
i have a friend who is my age and hasn't had sex with her husband in almost 2 years (since they got pregnant with their son). and it's not on her part either...she gets tired of being the one who initiates, so she just gave up. and no, he's not cheating. he says that sex just isn't that important to him, he's always been that way. even when they first started dating/married, they only had sex once week or month.
@aggiebutterfly: It's true some people have really low sex drives. In your friend's case, that's an issue for sure. The couples I know in sexless marriages simply aren't happy, lots and lots of issues to all that. It's a sign of dysfunction at times or that the couple just aren't close anymore, especially those who've been married a long time or shouldn't be married at all. The Today did a segment on it the other day and how common it is...
