A sexless marriage is defined as one in which the partners have sex ten times per year or less. Surveys have shown that as much as 20% of couples feel that they are in sexless marriages. But what causes this condition?
There are probably as many factors that contribute to a sexless marriage as there are people in them. Alcohol and/or drug abuse; physical illness or injury; medications; stress from finances, work, children, school; a general lack of intimacy and many, many other issues can have severely adverse effects on relationships.
Although in many cases, there is nothing that can be done to alleviate this condition, we feel that in most instances a sexless marriage can be avoided, or, if it has already gotten to that point, healed. In many instances, a sexless marriage is the result of the feeling of one or both partners that they cannot ask for what they want sexually. Usually, this is because of fear of rejection or ridicule from the other partner. Unfortunately, many times it is both partners that want something that they feel they are not getting from the other.
At Sexual Solutions, we have developed programs that can enable lines of communication to be opened and maintained between partners, thus allowing a vehicle for the free expression of each other's wants, needs, desires and fantasies with each other. If you feel that there is something missing in your sex life, Sexual Solutions may be able to help.
