Today, I have been married for nearly 16 years. I've not had sex in over three years. My wife spends all hours chatting and gaming online with friends, and when she finally crashes into bed, she just goes to sleep. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my husband told me that he is done having sex because it eats up his online gaming time. FML
Today, my wife has initiated sex less than five times in the 18 years we've been married. If I don't mention it, then she doesn't have to bother. FML
Today, it's been 3 years since my wife told me we should take a break from sex. We haven't touched each other since. FML
Today, my marriage is more or less over, as my wife is so career-obsessed that when I asked if we could spend some time together, she rolled her eyes and gave me permission to sleep with other women, since sex is all I think about. I didn’t ask for sex, just time together. Definitely over I think. FML
Today, and over the last week, I’ve spent about 10 minutes with my wife over 5 separate occasions because she is married more to her job than to me. And if anyone is interested those 5 occasions were unromantic sex because we’re trying to get pregnant, then straight back to her laptop to work more. FML
Today, I found out that my wife has had more sex in the last two months than I have in our last year of marriage. FML
Today, it's been almost 3 years since my wife has wanted sex, and I get turned down every time I ask. Even when I insist on a romantic date night, we just sit with no idea what to say to each other. How did we drift so far apart? The only thing keeping us together is the mortgage and the cat. FML
Today, I discovered my wife has had more sex in the last two months than I've had in the last year. FML
Today, I had to have the awkward conversation with my wife of 20-plus years that the reason I’ve lost interest in sex is because our sex life has been mind numbingly boring for at least 15 of those years, always the same positions, never wanting to try anything new, just so boring. FML
Today, after close to 10 years of marriage, my wife’s health has improved enough she is craving sex again. Just not with me. FML

Have you tried talking about it? If so and she doesn't want to make an effort to change, maybe it's time to see other people

Talk about it with your wife. If the two of you cannot work it out, and you don’t want to live this way, I recommend divorce. Depending on the state you live in, if you “see other people” and wife becomes upset about that it could cost you plenty in the divorce.

She's getting it elsewhere. You ought to do the same. Divorce is a huge waste of money designed to enrich lawyers and the court system.

Yeah and if she catches him, I wonder who wins the case.

Many states have no-fault divorce so it's just a split of marital assets.

sounds like your wife has an electronics addiction and that she's a roommate not a wife
mmmmmm no 5
Try having date nights, getting in the mood for sex starts outside the bedroom for many women. Even something as simple as doing some of her household chores for her could be a big turn on for her, perhaps give her a massage. Sounds like you have lost her direct attention, that a mundane life has taken over the romance in your lives. My ex complained that I didn't put out, (one of the reasons he left) his idea raising of eyebrows repeatedly at me to let me know he was in the mood definitely was not the foreplay that he seemed to think it was. She may even have some physical issues going on.... talk to her, date her, show her you love her.

He isn't ENTITLED to his wife having sex with him and contrary to popular belief she may not necessarily be getting it from another man like so many of you loser suggest. 1. There is a chance he is so poor in bed she would rather get herself off. 2. She might not want him to touch her for a reason outside the bedroom. Based on his attitude I'm inclined to believe both are true. If he wants sex he needs to get her in the mood for it. Not just expect it like he probably expects her to do his washing and cook him dinner....

I wonder if it's a coincidence that there were four losers in this thread, and you have four 'thumbs down' on your response. I don't know what you guys are upset about, What Nicole said is true. You should never suggest to anyone that they have an affair while they're married. What kind of advice is that... and does your wife know that's how you feel about marriage?

What a twist! Normally it's the guy who games all day. :D But in all seriousness, I'd definitely have a serious conversation about this relationship and she needs to get her priorities straight.

I'm sorry, OP, but this is on you. If you feel like you're being taken advantage of, then that's on you. Nobody can make you into a door mat without your permission. If you feel like she's spending too much time with other people, instead of you, then that's on you. You're the one that needs to have a conversation with her {not an argument, a conversation} about how you're feeling like the two of you are growing apart. There is something else that is wrong with your relationship, and the lack of sex is a symptom, not the problem itself.

Kink it up a bit! You never know, she may feel the same and a bit of spice may save you
