Shouldn’t the ex husband be able to get some kind of hoo hoo-amony because he’s become accustomed to having sex on a regular basis?
My wife and I when we were dating couldn’t seem to go more than a day or two being around each other with out wanting to have sex. We were creative and had fun with it. Now we have been married for almost 7 years and for the past 4-5 of that time we go weeks and sometimes months without having sex or being intimate. I feel like my wife does not want to be with me anymore because when we do get intimate I always have to initiate it…I can not remember the last time she came to me and wanted to be with me sexually. What should or can I do to help the situation?
Some good advice so far but just to help everyone to help me I am a good husband I do what I am asked to do I am very loving and treat my wife like gold…also, I have spoken to her about this and let her know how I feel about it a couple times and things get better for a week or so then it is back to the same old thing. I do not feel I should have to start things up all the time. It makes me feel like I am not wanted or that it is more of a chore than a want.
If abortion became illegal EXCEPT for rape cases, will men and women(teenagers, one-nighters) think twice before having intercourse and will cheating and infidelity rates go all-time low?
Sigy The Arctic Kitty: WHY do you keep playing the blame game??? I was thinking that if abortion was illegal, there would be less teen pregnants and less kids born out of a wedlock because ppl would THINK TWICE before having sex.
Betty: Agreed, its becoming a sad world.
Betty: agreed with the last sentence offcourse.
It takes good parenting to keep them in check.
Jessica: Your pro-choice but would never have an abortion. I think there is a fallacy in your argument. You might as well be pro-life.
At the beginning of the relationship, she told him that watching porn was as bad as having sex with another woman, and not to do it. He did it, got caught and cried and said he was sorry and she forgave him. A year later, he did it again, but denied it saying that he knew she was watching and did it on purpose to test her to see if she trusted him; she doesn’t believe him. She’s been cheating on him with a married couple in the more direct sense. Now she wants to go to couples counseling (and he agreed), but she’s not going to admit the infidelity; I doubt he will admit he was watching porn for entertainment. They have an 18-month baby together, and they hate each other so much that they both drink daily and she takes anti-depressants and he smokes weed behind her back. So, I’m just curious; what kind of a chance do they stand on successfully working things out?

Men are more likely to want to marry women who are their assistants at work rather than their colleagues or bosses, a University of Michigan study finds.
Brown and Lewis found that males, but not females, were most strongly attracted to subordinate partners for high-investment activities such as marriage and dating.
"Given that female infidelity is a severe reproductive threat to males only when investment is high, a preference for subordinate partners may provide adaptive benefits to males in the context of only long-term, investing relationships—not one-night stands."
Sorry, feminists looks like biology trumps misguided politics every time.
The study is here for people who want moreinformation. I have quoted the relevant paragraph on infidelity risk:
http://www.bio.ilstu.edu/sakaluk/BSC%20304/BSC%20304%20PDFs/Brown%20and%20Lewis%202004%20Evol%20Human%20Behav%20-%20Relational%20Dominance.pdf
1.2. Paternal uncertainty and female social dominance
Relational dominance may be an important part of male mate-selection criteria if it constitutes a cue for the risk of paternal uncertainty, one of the most serious reproductive threats to males (Daly, Wilson, & Weghorst, 1982). Males who preferred to
mate with relatively subordinate partners (as opposed to higher dominance partners) may
have been better able to limit the chance (or amount) of paternal uncertainty either by preventing their partner from having sex outside of the partnership or by being able to closely monitor their partner’s sexual behavior for possible infidelity.
Consistent with this, research conducted on nonhumans demonstrates that male dominance
is associated with effective mate guarding and with increased reproductive success (e.g., Cant, 2000).
By the way, there is NO evidence to suggest that men prefer dominant females for one night stands as there is for females and their preference for dominant males for one night stands.
Sorry McFemale, there is biological evidence.
If you do, then what evidence would be required? Direct or indirect?
If you don’t, then do you think there should be any kind of further punishment (other than those currently - divorce etc.)?
Really think about it before you answer. You have to ask yourself, is it right to put someone in jail (possibly) for having sex outside of marriage?
Serious answers only: My girlfriend and I are both in our 30s, and this is the first serious relationship we’ve both been in. We are both virgins. We have started getting closer, kissing, cuddling, hand-holding, but nothing too intimate. Is there any "usual" way couples progress in their intimacy, to eventually having sex? I know I’d certainly like to get physically closer to her, and see more of her body. She does seem shy though about her body.

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 6 years now. We have a house, business, and 2 yr old daughter together. A lot of strain has been put on our relationship for a while now because of money and his family living with us for the last 3 years. For the past 3 months he has said that things are not working out. He says that he still loves me but just can’t live with me. At first he wouldn’t agree to go to a counselor because he said it didn’t work for him and his ex-wife. After explaining that I wasn’t his ex and that I committed to improving us, he agreed to go to counseling while on a trial separation. We both agreed that we would NOT see other people while separated. So my question is: Is it ok to keep having sex while we are separated? Is it ok to call each other endearing terms and to tell each other I love you?
Please only answer if you have been in this situation, know someone in this situation, or are a therapist.
so a lot of the bible’s verses pretty much state that having sex makes u married or one flesh, but if my fiance has had previous partners does that make me an adulterer? or is there other verses that support my cause?
