- There is much more than sex that makes a good marriage and if he had several affairs then your marriage was in trouble during that 40 years of marriage and neither of you did anything to rectify the problems. Communication is the most important factor of a marriage where the spouses feel free to discuss any of their feelings with each other. A man can love his wife, but she may not listen to his needs (and visa-versa) and the needs in a human have to be filled and this is where the problems begin with one or both spouses cheating. A low libido can be caused from Diabetes; heart problems (medications can lower the libido); antidepressants lower the libido of both men and women. Get your husband in for a good physical to be sure there is nothing going on regarding his low libido. It isn't always about the wife when a husband has a low libido. Sit down with your husband and discuss seeing a marriage counselor. A marriage counselor is not there to blame either spouse, but to find out where the root of their problem is and give them the tools to help them improve upon their marriage.

What should you do if you only get five minutes of sex from your husband?
Communication in any marriage is more important than sex and you should sit down with your husband and discuss why your sex life has gone downhill. If he is diabetic or has had a heart problem then his libido could suffer from this as well as some medications such as antidepressants can lower the libido. If he does street drugs or consumes a great deal of alcohol then his libido would be low or he'd fall asleep. Talk about it together and then see a doctor.

After 2 yrs of dating and 8 months of marriage our sex life is almost non existant and my husband seems indifferent is this normal for the romantic stage to fade so soon?
No, it's not normal. Some medications such as heart medications; antidepressants, etc., can cause low libido. Depression untreated can cause low libido as can diabetes. Each individual is different in a marriage and perhaps your husband finds the every day drudge of life is getting to him or he's extremely tired from work. Many couples that both work may have different work schedules so their sex life becomes out of sync. In all relationships communication with two people is more important than sex. One evening sit down and discuss with your husband why the romance has gone out of the marriage (don't just blame him.) Sometimes children (the mother spends more time with the child than the husband) will cause the husband to go off by himself or tune out his wife. Find out from your husband how he feels and listen well. If you can afford it go on a trip somewhere where it's romantic and if you can't afford that then get parents or grandparents to look after any children you may have and go away for a weekend. It doesn't have to be far and can be some peaceful little hideaway and that may get the sparks flying again. If your husband doesn't know what is wrong then both of you should have a good physical by your family doctor and if everything is fine in that department then seek marriage counseling.
What could be the reason for a man not wanting to have sexual intercourse with his wife?
1. He may have developed ED. 2. He no longer is sexually attracted to her. 3. He has developed a low libido and isn't interested in sex with anyone. 4. He is having an affair. If your husband is diabetic or has had heart surgery of any kind this can certainly lower his libido. Medications for heart disease or depression can also lower the libido. See if you can get him for a good physical from your family doctor and be checked for thyroid (T3/T4 blood test), adrenal gland first. A dysfunctional thyroid or adrenal gland can create havoc with both men and women. You should be communicating more with your husband and asking him what is wrong. Lots of married couples can go through this problem.
