No Sex life
Answered 4 years ago
8 months into 2020 and we have had sex 3 times were in our late twenties 2 years and 12 years together husband told me a few weeks he has no sex drive so i googled spoke to him about a few things left it with him still nothings been done does he want to fix it? is he maybe not interested anymore i feel like we are just co exsiting right now once the kids go to bed we are just seperate i feel resentful hurt undesired and now i am at the point of not caring anymore if he wont try why should i? Is this the end? weve had a rough few years with him being diagnosed with depression but once again nothing was done about that either i took the lead made phone calls to counsellers but was never the right date or time didnt suit also refuses to take anti depressants which is fine he can make his own choices but i feel like i am just along for the ride kind of like a mother and i am over it i feel like sex was our one connection that no matter what was going on it was jus us

Why don’t you just sit on his face after you have shaved and see where that takes you
I can tell you it really works and you’ll love it too

Now I don't waste my time trying. Eventually I'll probably leave
This year I haven't wasted my time. twice he initiated it. Once I was like OK let's do this. He didn't want to touch me or anything, it was all about him blowing his load in 1 minute and again it being my own fault if I didn't like that. If I talk about it, he said not everyone is sex crazy like you (yes, 4 times in one year, sex crazed apparently). I refused the second time and he sulked like a bitch.
I now feel physically repulsed by him and his selfish bedroom ways. There isn't going to be anything that brings the sex back as far as I'm concerned.

I only ask because the issues you raise: no sex, lack of intimacy, depression are quite serious and need to be addressed properly.
You need to lock in a time with your husband (give him heads up) and have a very open and raw conversation about what you’ve written here. Tell him how you feel, what your needs/expectations are etc then ask him how he feels about everything in your marriage at this current time. Communication is key OP. No need for aggression or blame shifting. Marriage is hard work and you will continue to go through highs and lows but will you go through them together as a team or individually?!
Just a side not when you have a proper sit down chat do not dive in with all the negative and criticism. Give praise and credit where it’s due as a husband/father and then introduce the aspects of your marriage you would like to focus on and hopefully make some slow progressive changes. Good luck OP x
That may still be a problem, and maybe a search for a change in medication if he is still on the original medication for depression.
Medications that suit one person may not suit another, and people can build up resistance to certain medications. Also, some medications such as Lithium have a long half life, so build up in the body, which in itself causes problems.
You may need to say to him if he cant be bothered even addressing the depression issue, that you are not going to stay around.
You cant go on like that forever.
