When sex is no longer holding two people together, because it's dead, due to impotence, or other reasons, is it too risky to stay together?

Is there a much bigger chance to leave each other for someone else?

I don't think sex is a reason to leave a marriage. Besides, there are other ways to please a woman in bed. In this sex crazed world, there's alot of pressure on men that believe if you can't get it up, your not manly.. or? I would personally like to know what causes impotence: is it too much sex in your past? unnatural pornography stimulation? no emotional/intimate connection in marriage? probably stress is in there too. Well whatever is your case, how about buying an informed book and exploring what it is for you? If it's medical, then your wife should be compassionate and understanding...every couple has Something to deal with, it's those words of 'I married you for you, not your body' is where real love is.

Without a healthy sexual relationship, things can get really frustrating for both partners. If you both have the same sex drive then there shouldn't be a problem. If sex is really important to you or your partner and your needs aren't being fulfilled, this could lead to unfaithfulness or frequent arguments. If sex is really important to either of you, and there is a non-existent physical relationship, it is probably risky to stay together.

Try speaking to a doctor about the impotence problem.
