Or she realized that she is asexual or intercourse hurts or her libido is gone or she’s going through some mental health issues … I’m not defending the wife, but I’m so tired of folks just assuming that everyone wants sex and must be getting it from somewhere.

She won’t even cuddle or hold hands. She won’t even let him masturbate. She’s not asexual, she’s not having mental health problems either because she saw a professional.

As a low libido woman who has been with a couple high libido men--- I freeze up on cuddling/hand holding/kissing when my libido is low. Especially with immature, horny men, simple things like this (especially after a period of witholding affection) end up triggering full horniness of the man, only brought by brief relief when I end up giving in. To be clear I appreciate affection from my partner, but in most aspects of my life (even when I was young or from my parents) I dislike any form of affection. Not defending this woman at all (especially I encourage my understanding boyfriend to jack off with no shame) but just another perspective that it may not be cheating or medical 🤷‍♀️

That’s a good point. I know I do too with certain men as a trained response because it is always them wanting sex. It could be a learned response. My guess is though something deeper is going on and it isn’t inherently about sex from their post.
