Question:
My husband and I have been together 7 years and he isn't intrested in sex at all. He says that he likes it and all when we do have sex maybe once every other month but he just doesn't want it. He was tested and everything came up fine. It is very hard on our marriage. I am a sexual person and I would really like to be intimate with my husband. He was a virgin when we got together at 25 and said he was just not ever intrested in sex. Please help me to save our marriage I don't know what to do. I love him very much. We have 7 years together and a 3 year old daughter. I don't want to just give up but this is very hard to deal with.

Low or Inhibited sexual desire has many diffrent causes ranging from childhood upbringing, religious beliefs and voluntary choice to hormonal deficiencies, medication, sexual monotony or relationship troubles. It needs detailed exploration of the person's past and the present, his attitudes, and beliefs, as well as some laboratory investigations.

The purpose of mentioning all this is that it cannot be addressed through mails. The best otion for you would be to see a sex therapist. Since your husband is not unwilling to meet a therapist, and since you love each other, certainly the situation can be improved through counselling and sex therapy.
