Consequences?......are you his boss/employer?

More "harsh" than you?

You only "tell" your husband "kids things" once?

I'm pretty sure your husband knows that when it's cold outside, wearing a coat will keep him warmer....

and by not wearing one, he'll be colder......

You may not think that you "nag".......

but reading your post sure seems like your husband is "one of the children" to you and therefore needs to be instructed all day.....

It may not seem that way to you......but men don't like being told what to do all the time...especially at home.....

If my GF tried to "mother" me.......I would definitely have a problem with that and I'm sure it would affect the quality of the relationship........

And it seems like in a lot of cases....the men just go along with being told what to do all of the time thinking it will "make her happy"......then, it just becomes the normal routine and you wind up in a bad marriage with little to no sex at all.

God no, I don't tell my husband to put on a bloody coat. He's a grown man. Are you insane?

Anyway......



This thread is a "let's hear from the guys" in regards to why some husbands don't want to have sex with their wives anymore.....

So- I put my "2 cents" in.....

"nagging"........ask any guy- it's one of the worst things ever.

My kids are my best example. My husband usually goes along the lines of...

Wednesday Night:

"Here's the ticket for your dry cleaning. It will be ready tomorrow after work for the meeting on Friday. I've put it on your calendar."

"Okay."

Friday Morning:

"Where's my dark blue suit?"





I don't nag.

Guys: What if your wife cheated on you (but you haven't cheated), would that make you not want to have sex with her?

Sex is not marriage , but I have to agree ,when a woman is continiously not interested and you know that you have not been cheating, it does make you wonder what's going on.
Many of my jobs were hard work, and phsyicly demanding, so at the end of the day I was dog tired.
After a nights rest I had life again, but in the morning she on the other hand was vacant.
Not saying I endorce porn, but if a woman is intimidated by a man's observation of others having some form of affection while she is denying it to her own husband , there's a problem.
If a wife is choosing to "fatten up" knowing he might have a problem with it , It might be a good indicator she want's him to dump her.
After so many times of saying "stay off the junk food" and people ignoring you and putting on weight, it feels like deliberate rebellion.
When you try to intorduce the them excersize, it's all in vain.
After a while you give up caring. and enduring it for years makes you feel like your just a meal ticket and nothing more.
Living alone among your family is insane, at least actually being alone is sane.
Porn only makes a person feel more alone, than they already are, like a sugar rush and then depression.
Knowing what I know now , I'd never get married again.

So you have access to statistics on this or did you just make it up?

Or they have medical issues. Or they do not have the time and energy due to the stresses of modern day life. Or - or - or - there is a long list of reasons for a drop in sexual relations in a relationship. Far more than the two you pick arbitrarily above.
