Lack of Intimacy: Living in a Sexless Marriage



?Are you in a sexless marriage?
Living in a sexless marriage is a heavy cross to bear!

This begs the question, what is a sexless marriage?

If we look at the sexless marriage definition, it is when couples have bare minimum sexual contact or in some radical cases, a relationship without sex. Sex and marriage are not mutually exclusive.

Sexless marriage effects on husband and wife include 
  • lack of emotional connection
  • conflicts
  • relationship 
  • dissatisfaction
  • proclivity towards committing
  • infidelity in marriage


But first, what is intimacy?

Intimacy denotes:-


  • mutual love
  • sharing and openness
  • mutual understanding
  • affection
  • mental satisfaction of feeling towards each other


 A comfortable equation between partners where they can be easily vulnerable to each other.

                        There are can be numerous reasons behind the lack of intimacy in a marriage like menopause, age, hormonal issues, and sexual dysfunction. Physical intimacy being an indispensable element in a relationship, marriage without sex can pose a threat to a relationship. But, it is even more difficult to find out how to survive a sexless marriage.
Intimacy issues are not uncommon, and they can certainly be difficult to handle or awkward to address.
The reality of marriage without sex, where lack of intimacy is writ large, can be downright devastating for those living in a marriage without intimacy.
No sex in marriage is not something extremely unheard of, there are all kinds of couples.
There are marriages which survive without sex, intimacy, and romance, however, but these are the attributes that set the relationship between a husband and a wife apart from all other familial ties.
But some times these may include sex problem
Like low libido, premature ejaculation and other sexual disorder which can be overcome through treatment in time is good.
