Yes I am aware of the double standard that my comment appears to be. It is and it isn't. Men tend to be less vocal and communicate in other ways. Maybe that's leftover from the grunting caveman days but its true. When we actually open our mouths and use words, women need to listen and not jump on us for trying to do something we're not wired for and vice versa.

I think so. The standards I've read were around less than once a week not sure if I remember that right.

It's your definition, too. Below what keeps your marriage satisfactory.

We're about once per year and my wife suffers from nothing but notinterestedin****itis.

Diagnosis is simple, but the cure rate is 50-50.

Was the question posed recently, whether sexlessness is a divorceable offense?

My husband is paying attention at the moment, but that's probably because I broke down in tears over it all the other night...I am not a crier at all. So when I do, he knows it must really be something.

I'm going to try and keep him busy for at least a week, hopefully more. See if we can fix this crappy problem of ours. Everything else is more or less good (finally!).
