That is (1) untrue and (2) unhelpful. When a relationship is having trouble, a woman can lose interest in sex, too. Since your profile states your interests as including "creating havoc", your advice is probably not the best for the OP to hear.

OP, you and your wife have separated once already, but now you're back together. I'm wondering if part of the problem is a very common one where you are thinking of sex as being a clue that everything is okay (or at least it would allow you to live with that illusion) but your wife is seeing sex as just another chore on the "to do" list? The way to find out is to talk to her. You are both going to have to communicate with each other and find out what each other wants, needs, thinks. You sound like you're looking for some reassurance that things are okay, it's just couched in terms of sex.

Or maybe you do just want to ...(PG-13, huh?) and I'm giving you too much credit.

Either way, your wife no doubt feels your expectation/interest in sex (even if you are saying that it's not your main goal, she now has seen you looking at porn and will feel that much more strongly that sex is a background presence) and may feel resentment that it is expected. It can become a cycle of pressure, resentment and negative feelings. Those kinds of feelings will kill any desire she might feel. So somehow you need to break that cycle.

i was trying to bite my mouth and drop it so i said tv. i really didnt want to give my young egotistcal male answer but you all seem to want it. but in all honesty, as a male in his 20's from what i have observed a decrease in sex could possibly be a symptom of somthing else. the fact that they have been seperated in the past does not seem to be working in this gentlemans favor.

did the gentleman not state that he is always cooking and cleaning and putting bread on the table. in cases while his wife "is going out shopping"
he comes home from work and finds that she has made no effort to cook and he has to do "house work" after a hard days work even though she is the one at home?

so you have the fact that they have had relationship strains in the past, issues with the unqueal amount of whos keeping the household running. and the fact that he has given no evidence as to her having any physical reason as to why she should have a decrease in hormons, and yea i guess to me somthing sounds fishy. i can understand why he is concerned i would be too.

And what would a male in his 20's know about relationships of ten years and with two kids?

BTW, what does "wasps need to hold this country down" mean? Are you an Aryan?

well hed probably know a lot considering he came from parents that have been married for over 30 years. i find it refreshing by the way to get the opinion of young from time to time. older folks always ask me about the coutring habbits of todays youth. for any questions about my profile please message me.
