This has gotta be the toughest decision of my life. I have a wife that I find that I could never replace. We have been married for 17 years and have 6 kids. We are having our fair share of problems at the moment. The biggest for me is that we have had a sexless marriage since spring and I am not sure if I can take it anymore. She has never enjoyed sex and never wanted to tell me until just recently. She is the type that does not want conflict and therefore bottles up her true feelings. She also thinks that the reason she has not ever enjoyed sex is because of something terrible that happened in her childhood. We went for our first marriage counsel meeting tonight and I have a lot of thinking to do before our next session about where I think things should go. Separation or divorce are possibilities, but I am not too keen on doing that to all these kids never mind her. I TOTALLY want to remain faithful but do not think I can live the rest of my life without sex. I hope this does not seem greedy on my part. She is SO busy with her career that she does not have time to seek separate counselling for her childhood issue for a while yet. She even offered to give us an open marriage so that I could find happiness that way. Not sure which path to take. Like I say, it seems like a VERY difficult decision to make. It is not fair to anyone that the family lives with our misery.
Put the internet to work for you.
