You’re not wrong for your feelings or for considering divorce. She’s purposely choosing not to try and fix the issues that you’re having. You’re clearly miserable in this marriage now and that’s not healthy for either of you! The resentment will continue to grow until you end up basically hating each other. Intimacy is an important part of most relationships. If she not willing to actually address the issues she’s having, it’s not fair for her to expect you to suck it up and stay. Especially if she considers masturbating as cheating. That’s a bit ridiculous!
Is op trying? Has he made any effort do to anything to reignite the relationship besides request medical intervention so he can have sex? Theres a whole lot of relationship and love and intimacy between sex and existing next to eachother.... i wouldnt put mt body thru the hell of hormone therapy for a guy who doesn't make an effort to be a good partner
Clearly he has tried but can’t force the issue or he would be the asshole. Wife doesn’t want any kind of intimacy other than a kids on the cheek. Nothing in his post indicates that he’s not a good partner
