- Someone wanted what boils down to advice for a frustrated spouse in a sexless marriage and I'm going to do my best to point things out. Please don't take offense. I'm not blaming anybody for anything because there could be a number of reasons but the problem is that one of you is frustrated and the other one should not be holding back sex from you. If you're frustrated. So I'm going to try to explain to you why they may be so we'll start with men. Why would your wife hold back from you? And I'm going to give you typical responses. You can write in to us with more specific problems and it's a free service. You'll get an answerback but usually, when women are holding back it's because the husband is not taking care of her emotional needs. She's not feeling the connection. A good woman connects with her husband sexually but with all of her heart, but if that man if the husband is not opening his heart if he's imposing expectation on her for sex, not intimacy, big difference. She's going to have a very difficult time opening up her heart and complying with his needs. Women want to have sex just as much as men but for very different reasons.

Sincere and determined people need truthful information and a good plan to escape the cycle and hole you are in. Incredible marriages ARE possible. They are achieved by:
1. Learning about the mind and mastering it so your changes are permanent and you are always growing.
2. Learning how to behave, and not behave in marriage friendly ways
3. Making unconditional love and ever-expanding happiness your primary and constant missions.
Go to themarriagefoundation.org and get the course if you need it. Now is not the time to experiment. It is the time for positive action.
Catch 22 - it is impossible (for me) to be emotionally present after a month without sex, and because she is not emotionally supported sex doesn't happen. And so the vicious cycle with continue for months
Of course it is possible because your emotions are all controllable, but that is not enough. The pathway for you is laid out in both of the courses, for men, and women. Your name suggests you are a woman, too, and the context suggest she identifies as a woman, so use the course for men. themarriagefoundation.org/
Currently working on our marriage of 20 years, I’ve always been very sexual and always enjoyed it. There’s been so much emotional disconnect from my husband and I’ve listened to your videos and am working to reconnect emotionally. That being said, I don’t feel the need to get sexual with him anymore, it feels like I’m pretending and I’ve done that for so long. He’s of course slightly offended that not I’m not interested like I used to be.
I have a feeling it has everything to do with emotional connection, I don’t know. I love him and care for him but I’m struggling with being attracted to him.
I do NOT promote emotional connection, which is shallow and unfulfilling as very important. I promote SOUL connection which requires you learning to open your heart. You must use the SEW technique in the course for women or you will remain in the twilight zone of marriage.
My husband and have been under significant financial stress since the start of the pandemic. We are from a developing country, I mention this because you should understand we can assume less financially in our country, so the stress is tremendous. My husband is also 13 years older than me. He has lost all interest in sex and I need sex to release tension. Although I understand that his is a stress response and is not meant to hurt, I feel rejected, and frustrated beyond belief.
I know it is a burden for me to suggest you purchase the course but you can get one of our downloadable books and it will help you.
Thank you for you work Paul Friedman. Excellent videos.
I am glad you like them! 🙏
My partner is currently going through perimenopause and as a result, her libido has dropped. She will be seeking advice from a doctor this week.
I completely agree with your advice. Great video

Porn is ruining our marriage. he thinks I don't know or hear. But he's the one who doesn't hear me coming in the house w friends as he's getting busy on the couch. I let him know She's not real, and if she was. wouldn't date him. She doesn't love him and it is a form of cheating. He's convinced he's done with that. but still now wants sex not lovemaking. Porn style sex is not lovemaking.
Read this article and see if it doesn't help you themarriagefoundation.org/husband-addicted-to-porn/ then get the course for women so you can have a blissful marriage.
I totally agree!!
Better than nothing
And now we know why he prefers a video.
I like how you complain about one thing then tell me why it’s your own fault in the same fn paragraph without even realizing it. Do you have any self awareness?
Sexless marriage is probably the norm so you just need to accept it as normal and not worry about it. There is no other option.
Why do you think that is true?? It is the norm only when the marriage is not firing on all cylinders or when the choice is made by both partners for positive reasons.
@@TheMarriageFoundation I say that based on my own experience. it is a long story. We have been married less than 3 years. We do not live together. So the chances for sex are slim to none. I have simply accepted the fact that sex can no longer be part of my life.
