Was sex important enough to dissolve your marriage?

Short background: You've heard it before. Girlfriend who doesn't believe in pre-marital sex becomes wife who turns out to be monumentally inhibited in the bedroom. Fast forward 27 years - kids are grown, nest is empty, sex life is unchanged and probably unchangeable. Fighting over the issue is no longer interesting because deep down after this much time you see the abject futility of it. Mate is otherwise a caring, loving person with similar beliefs and overall a good fit.

Now it's time to make a decision. Do you make the one thing you can't change important enough to end the relationship before age removes any chance of enjoying a fulfilling sex life? Or is the grass not only not greener, but perhaps not even grass?

I'm interested in hearing from those who chose either way and what they think about their decision. Regrets, satisfactions, compensations, thoughts, whatever.
