My Wife Is No Longer Responsive To Sex by AntiTerrorist: 3:15pm On Apr 11
My wife's libido has decreased, and she's become less responsive to intimacy. Despite my efforts, she doesn't seem to be aroused or enjoy sex like she used to. While she hasn't denied me sex, I'm concerned about her satisfaction and don't want to be selfish. I'm wondering if there's an underlying issue or if there's something I can do to support her.

If your wife is no longer responsive to sex, it's crucial to understand the potential causes and address them constructively. Possible factors include physical health issues, relationship dynamics, or mental health challenges, and open communication and potentially professional help may be necessary.

Understanding the Potential Causes:

Physical Health:
Medical conditions, hormonal imbalances, or certain medications can all impact libido and responsiveness.

Relationship Dynamics:
Lack of intimacy, communication problems, or unresolved conflicts can lead to sexual disinterest.

Mental Health:
Depression, anxiety, or other mental health challenges can also affect sexual desire.

Lifestyle Factors:
Stress, lack of sleep, and poor nutrition can all contribute to lower sex drive.

Steps to Address the Issue:
1. Open Communication:
Have an honest and open conversation with your wife about her feelings and concerns. Listen to her perspective and try to understand her perspective.

2. Seek Medical Advice:
If you suspect a physical health issue, encourage your wife to see a doctor for a thorough checkup.

3. Explore Relationship Issues:
Consider whether relationship dynamics are contributing to the problem. Couples counseling can be a valuable tool for addressing communication and intimacy challenges.

4. Address Mental Health:
If mental health issues are suspected, encourage your wife to seek professional help from a therapist or counselor.

5. Lifestyle Changes:
Consider lifestyle adjustments like regular exercise, stress management techniques, and a healthy diet, as these can positively impact sexual health.

Important Considerations:
It's not necessarily about "fixing" her:
Understanding her perspective and finding ways to meet your needs while respecting her boundaries is key.

Consider professional help:
A sex therapist or couples counselor can provide guidance and support in navigating this situation.

Be patient and supportive:
Change can take time, and it's important to be patient and supportive throughout the process.

I can think of five (5) possible reasons:
1. Your "performance" has dropped;
2. She's getting "it" somewhere, from someone better than you;
3. She's holding a grudge against you;
4. You're no longer romantic towards her; or
5. You're not sensitive to her needs.

I recommend you guys should get therapy or professional help for your relationship.

Wishing you good luck πŸ™ 🀞 🀞

I believe there should be a dedicated school or program for married couples focused on education about sex and intimacy. This could help address a critical issueβ€”sexual infidelity, which I think is one of the main reasons for broken marriages today. Married people should learn how to communicate openly about their desires, set mutual expectations, and understand each other's needs. This education would also include emotional connection, trust-building, and understanding the importance of sexual health in maintaining a strong and fulfilling relationship. Such knowledge could empower couples to navigate their marriages more successfully and reduce the chances of infidelity, fostering stronger, healthier unions.

If she has given birth, then it's likely PPHSDD (Postpartum Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder. Due to the hormonal, physical, mental and emotional stress and stretch that comes with childbirth, most women find themselves in this cocoon.

Also, the possibility of Postpartum depression is likely, especially if your wife is moody, anxious (for nothing) suffering from insomnia along side the symptom you complained about.


All the best!

Money could make a significant difference in women libido. The reason is that sex is psychological. It's not a joke but the truth.

Most women need to be relaxed to enjoy intimacy. If there's something on her mind, then it becomes hard to let go and enjoy the moment.

Pamper her, take her out, enjoy dating each other again because marriage and children can kill any romantic light.

Start flirting with her again, make her laugh, do something she enjoys. Send her sexy messages during the day. Make her feel like your girl again instead the parents and spouse roles you both play.

If you could afford to go away for a weekend together then do it and rekindle the spark. It's great that you care and want to please your wife.

The problem outlined by the OP is the treatment that decent married men who don't cheat and whose wives know will never cheat suffer. A man whose wife is behaving that way should dress well, go out and come back looking happy, hold his phone up and be fidgeting with the phone smiling. If possible, put a password on your phone and don't ask her for sex. Provide always and act like her sex means nothing to you. She will come back to you. Most women don't like peace, if you are not quick to create chaos, she will create it for you and torment your life.

Declare for you and your wife a no sex getaway weekend.

For that weekend, arrange for light shopping and good cuisine. Go for long drives and explore the environment. Throw a good spa and massage treatment into the works. Preferably, let a man be her masseuse.

So this is true? I've heard rumours about how some of you guys would rather use money to entice women rather than improve your bedroom game.

She will enjoy your money while enjoying a side dude that has mastered his bedmatics skills elsewhere... Money will never improve your sexual prowess... Allegedly most rich men are not even good in bed...πŸ˜’πŸ˜’πŸ˜’
