My Dw has a good mind for business. Our marriage has become primarily a business partnership. If I were to leave her, she has plans and methods to ruin me.
Sounds like a hostage situation. I feel very sorry for you

I guess this is how we get sayings like "it's cheaper to keep her" and other gems.
We have plenty of maintenance sex, but we're both consenting to that because maintaining our sex life and deep emotional connection is important to us both, and depends on this. Of course, this does not means always, or any time - there are plenty of good reasons to defer it to another day, but when such reasons don't exist, we go for it. And we are happier for it, and happier with each other. We also have plenty of mutually fabulous sex. We both like sex, but sometimes need some help from our partner to get into the mood. But when we make the effort, if inevitably works!
This is a new definition of maintenance sex to me: having sex to maintain emotional intimacy. I can really relate to everything you wrote, and especially the last sentence.
Relationships are not always rainbows and unicorns.... There’s a lot of give and take... even when it comes to sex.
Right, every instance of having sex doesn't have to have a romantic precedence every single time. I've heard about how husbands come home for a lunch break "quickie" or "nooner" as some refer to it.
You know, I could never imagine people in their 20s not desiring sex in their marriage. I guess YOUTH doesn't drive the drive. I think this is why people stay in long term relationships indefinitely, with no marriage proposal for of the spouse immediately stop putting out after the vows are said.

Quickies aren't necessarily romantic.
Yeah that's hot if the other person is into it.
We are talking about spouses being in different places.
If you maintain emotional and communication connection the rest takes care of itself. Almost always, one or both spouses drop off communication, then everything else dims. When a person starts treating you as a mechanical device, you start to feel like one. Then you are supposed to act like one on maintenance call like the Maytag man.
