Question - (20 October 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 20 October 2010)
A female Zimbabwe age 36-40, *elomat writes:

I'm falling out of love with my husband. We've known each other for 4 years now. for the last 1 and half years he has been having issues with his sex drive if left up to him we could have sex once in two weeks or more. We've had many problems imposed by his parents and we work our way around them but now they are quiet and yet he is still acting funny. A few days ago i realised i was no longer attracted to him sexually and I just don't love him anymore. is it normal to not love your spouse anymore? i don't want to leave him because he'll be hurt yet i want to be happy.

Ven is right...typical slump. It troubles me you attach sex to how much you love him. If sex went away totally, you should still love him. Not the other way round.

I'd strongly suggest counseling. The intervention of the parents sound like more the root cause of his behavior and the troubles.

Marriages really shouldn't split if there are just a few problems that affect the sex. The problems can be fixed and the sex will improve. Give your marriage a second chance.

well it might just be rough patch. maybe you guys just need to try talking about it about your relationship and seeing if its even worth trying to fix cause usually if hes not willing to make it work then you'll see or maybe you guys just need to try doing new things but any ways good luck on your problem

People definitely hit a point where they lose the initial magic of being married. Statistically it happens between the second and third year.

Get into couples counseling, it will at least give him an opportunity to improve himself. Something isn't right when a guy has a low sex drive.
