Sooooooo— MARRIED Folk Are Not Having Sex Anymore? And They Are Content With That?🤔
You know, it's odd, but it seems to work for those types to sleep in separate bedrooms. One woman said in the article that, you know, her husband manages a company and he's very, very, very busy. So she sleeps in the study or he sleeps in the study. I forgot who. But this is what works for them. And they have a very happy, healthy relationship. Who are we to tell people that they have to have sex to be in a relationship?

So I end up either being awake for hours and not being able to go back to sleep until like, the very last minute, or I can sleep in another room and get a full night's sleep and I choose to get a full night's sleep. Does that mean that we have less intimacy? Not, no. Intimacy is several different things. And after having a child, I have a different connection to my body. There's different things that cause me immense amounts of pain

I don't know, it's just they're so focused on that, that they're missing the little nuances of life that you still have to prioritize your health above just sleeping in the same room. So, yeah, thank you so, so much for sharing your thoughts on this

It's just something couples need to work through. And it's not anything bad. It's just different. And as you age, we all become different. We all have our ways. But I love that you put this well together and that you talked about it, because a lot of people would not be talking about this subject. So thank you

But the woman's body is tired and she don't want to. And then unfortunately, you have those men out there who were just very nasty. And no empathy, no sympathy. They go out and cheat in those cases. But it doesn't have to come to that. Everyone don't have to have sex to express themselves is one form of expression that's enjoyable, but there are certainly other ways to be intimate. So thank you so much for your response

It sounds like in these situations that both parties seem to be okay with the current situation, you don't have one that's really, really craving sex and another that's not willing to, you know, satisfy those cravings. I think in a situation like that, where one has a greater sexual appetite than the other, I think you run into those situations. But if neither of you really have a high libido to begin with, I guess it's not that big of a deal

And so if you have a partner that's highly sex driven, but your libido is going down, then, yeah, that would present a problem, which is what makes this article very interesting, because the partners, the people who are mentioned, they're in relationships with folks who feel the same way that they do. So I guess it works out. But, yeah, to each their own. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Thank you so much for your contribution
