If
your sexless marriage is causing you great concern, you may think that
the problem is insurmountable and looking around for a divorce lawyer
seems inevitable but this is not always the case. Sexless marriages
are the cause of great marital unhappiness and finding a solution may
not be easy and will require a great deal of thought before you even
consider getting a divorce lawyer.
Your sexless marriage can:
•
Make you feel very lonely.
• Damage your self-esteem and confidence.
• Make you feel confused, restless and listless.
• Make you feel depressed.
You need to find out the root causes of why your
marriage is now sexless when once it was probably loving, romantic and
sexually fulfilling.
Marriage without sex is bad but married sex
without emotions is just as bad.
Here are some possible causes for why a marriage is
now sexless.
Your partner works long hours while you are
‘stuck’ at home
When one partner is working very long hours and the
other stays at home, feeling ignored and lonely it is very common for
them to take out their frustrations on their partner by
avoiding sex
as a form of silent protest. This can become an entrenched attitude,
which is hard to break when it has been happening for some time.
Both of you work long hours
When both you and your partner have very demanding
and time-consuming careers you never seem get the chance to spend time
with each other and behave like the proverbial ‘ships that pass in the
night’. The problem then is not one of loneliness and frustration for
one of you but simply lack of time together which can cause you drift
apart emotionally and sexually.
You need to decide what is more important, your
marriage or your work and try to find some way of re-scheduling your
lives so that you do not drift apart simply by not seeing each other
enough.
Other reasons for your
sexless marriage.
You need to think of some other possible reasons
for why you no longer feel sexually attracted to your partner such as:
• They are no longer physically attractive to you.
• They are emotionally cold towards you.
• They are dishonest and untruthful with you.
• They are lazy and selfish.
• They are abusive and disrespectful toward you.
• They do not listen to you.
There are many other reasons for a sexless marriage
but all of the above can cause you to avoid sex with your partner and
create strain on your marriage.
If you do not address the problems in your sexless
marriage then you may need marriage counselling or the problems could
lead you into the arms of someone else… a divorce lawyer.
