My Wife Has No Desire For Sex. Help!

Husband, what about your sex-life (or, as some guys say, "lack of sex life")?

Does your wife seemingly have little to no desire for sex? Consider this man's note:

"Help! For several years now, my wife has had virtually no desire for sex. At the beginning, things were great in the sex department but now, any sex we have is like she's doing me a favor. And honestly, I've just about reached the point where I'm done with her. If she'd just be more sexual, I'd be happy with her because outside of sex, she's a great woman. But, I'm just not the kind of guy who can go without sex for weeks or months at a time. Is there any hope for a man in my situation or should I just bring what could have been a really great marriage to an end?"

Now, I know for a fact that this man's sexless plight is not an isolated case...that in fact, there are a LOT of men in the same situation. So, let's consider this interesting question...

What does it take for a wife to desire sex with her husband?

Well, there are a whole litany of factors that impact a woman's desire for sex. Let's explore four of them:

1. How a wife feels about sex is largely dependent upon how her husband feels about her outside the realm of sex. Any time you find a husband whose only interest in his wife is sexual, you WILL find a wife who is NON-sexual -- or one who soon will be.

So, if a man wants his wife to have a greater interest in sex, then the first thing HE should do is start having a greater interest in his wife as a person. Of course, his interest must be genuine and sincere.

2. In order for a wife to feel sexual desire, she must first GENERATE fun, exciting, positive, and sexy thoughts in her mind so that she INVOKES sexual anticipation within herself.
But, do you know, there are a lot of important and pressing responsibilities and matters that crowd into a wife's mind...responsibilities and matters that crowd out all her fun, exciting, positive, and sexy thoughts.

So, the second thing a man must do if he wants his wife to desire sex more is help her in strategic ways so that she has the time, space, motivation, and energy to generate the kinds of thoughts that invoke sexual desire. This can mean all kinds of things from helping out around the house and with the kids to taking your wife to inspiring places that help her access her intimate side.

Now, as obvious and common-sense as this may seem, there is a world-full of husbands who are busy doing their own independent thing and who are leaving all the home / family / children responsibilities up to their wife which means she's GENERATING sad, boring, negative, and NON-sexual thoughts in her mind so that she INVOKES a complete loss of sexual desire within herself.

Let me put this another way...it takes two to have great sex...it takes two to have a great marriage...it takes two to handle the responsibilities of a home / family / children and men who have a great sex life ALWAYS remember that.

3. In order for a wife to feel sexual desire, she must have a husband who is a MAN! This is where many men blow it. Sure, they are man enough outside of their home / marriage but as soon as they walk through the front door of their house, they turn into a soft, passive, apologetic, push-over that their wife bosses around, uses, and abuses...and their wife feels no desire for them.

These are the kind of men who provide for their family AND do EVERYTHING for their wife / home / children. And, while they are doing EVERYTHING, their wife sits around bored, unhappy, and non-sexual.

A MAN contributes to the marriage "team" that he's a part of and he demands that his wife contribute too. He makes sure everyone on the "team" is putting forth concerted effort to make the marriage the best that it can be -- starting with himself.

A MAN is open and positive about sex. He mingles fun, flirty, sexy talk into his chats and conversations with his wife. Sometimes, he even describes to his wife a deeply connected and highly sexual encounter he plans to have with her in the future so that she has something to anticipate. Of course, a MAN is balanced...his conversations with his wife have plenty of meaningful substance to them that's well outside the realm of sexuality. Without the substance, a wife will come to think of her husband as shallow and sexually-needy and be turned-off by him.

A MAN is direct about what he wants from his wife sexually. There are plenty of men who are unhappy with their wife and their intimate life and yet, they've NEVER told their wife what it is that they want from her. So, a MAN tells his wife what he wants and helps her find a way to give that to him in a way that works for her too.

Think about it...how many times have you wanted to have a fun and sexual evening with your wife? Now, contrast that with this question...how many times you've asked your wife to sit down with you and plan out a fun and sexual evening -- one that both of you can enjoy?

4. Many a wife has lost her desire for sex simply because of too much frustration and not enough fulfillment in the realm of sex. Certainly, their husband is capable of satisfying them but he hasn't put enough planning, variety, or time into lovemaking to satisfy his wife. So, the fourth thing a man must do if he wants to ramp up his wife's interest in sex is put more planning, variety, and time into making love.

Too many times, husbands initiate sex with their wife and 10 - 15 minutes later, they are done. Well, in 10 - 15 minutes, a wife hasn't even had enough time to clear her mind let alone get into having sex. In 10 - 15 minutes, neither the man or the wife has had time to really connect emotionally. 10 - 15 minutes is NOT enough time to do something different than what you did all the other times before...which means you did the same thing you did the last time you made love with your wife...which means you are BORING...you're a lousy lover...and your wife will soon enough start AVOIDING sex with you. The point is, walking into your bedroom, jumping in bed, engaging in sex, and cleaning up 10 - 15 minutes later is nothing more than a nuisance, irritation, and frustration to your wife.

For most men, if they did nothing more than just give their wife enough time to get out of her negative thoughts and feelings and time to associate into positive, sexual thoughts and pleasurable feelings they'd instantly become better lovers.

Now, drawing from the four points made above, here are two simple ideas that a man can implement within his own marriage:

* Plan out a day that's entirely focused on you "spoiling" your wife. For an entire day, wait on your wife and serve her in ways that she enjoys and appreciates. If she likes breakfast, serve her breakfast in bed. For dinner, grill her up a nice steak. During the day, take her to a nice art exhibition and then take her shopping. Most importantly, make sure you tell her at least a week in advance what you're going to do for her so that she has a week to enjoy the pleasure of anticipation.

* Plan out in detail an evening of fun and sex...something that's definitely NON-routine...for you and your wife and "treat" your wife to that evening. Then, ask her to do the same and "treat" you to a evening of fun and sex that is a creation of her amazing mind.

Part of this article makes no sense, sex should no be a reward on both sides. This article has just gone against what it originally said sex should not be reward, and then towards the end suggest you should bend over backwards for your wife and then reward her with sex.
Sex should be mutual, I am bloke and would not expect my partener to make me a meal, take me out or what ever just so she can have sex.
Although I do agree it's better to build up to sex rather than dive straight in. Touch, feel and talk are the best methods and perhaps a few toys to spice things up or just have some fun tickling each other and larking about that gets spirits moving. I would also suggest in a close relationship or marriage not to have to much as it goes with everything in life as the saying goes "little is more" If you both can handle sex everday go for it but you will soon get bored.

I have to disagree with most of this article. Why should it be so hard for a married man to get laid by his wife? We need to jump through hoops that are on fire just to get some rocks off!?!!? I have the same problem, my wife of 8 years is just bored. We never had 'long' sex nights before this happened. She doesn't like herself anymore because she has gained a few lbs. I've tired EVERYTHING listed here and a lot more with no luck. Honestly, if a woman doesn't feel good with having sex, the marriage is ruined.

I'm sorry but, while there are some kernels of truth here, for the most part it is a hot steamy load of B.S.

Why is it that every time a man says he's sexually unsatisfied in a relationship it gets turned around so that it's somehow HIS fault? HE doesn't pamper his wife enough. HE doesn't woo her anymore. HE doesn't pull his weight with the housework. On and on and on with this hogwash.

Stop laying the blame at the man's feet. You complain that in 10-15 minutes we (men) are done but you fail to mention that, more often than not, we are done in 10-15 minutes because the WOMAN hasn't shown any interest and we just want to do what we need to do and get out. I'm sorry but, "hurry up" or, "I'm tired" or, "but the sheets are clean" doesn't come out nearly as sexy as you apparently think it does.

I adore my wife. I love her more now than the day I married her. I can't imagine my life without her in it but after 11 years of marriage I may finally be at my breaking point. If the sex had been like this before we were married we wouldn't have been married at all.

In response to:

"Why is it that every time a man says he's sexually unsatisfied in a relationship it gets turned around so that it's somehow HIS fault?"

And, in response to this nonsensical statement:

"I adore my wife. I love her more now than the day I married her. I can't imagine my life without her in it but after 11 years of marriage I may finally be at my breaking point. If the sex had been like this before we were married we wouldn't have been married at all."

I suggest you read this article:

In response to:

"you fail to mention that, more often than not, we are done in 10-15 minutes because the WOMAN hasn't shown any interest and we just want to do what we need to do and get out"

I have no doubt that there are some men who have this kind of effect on their wife. I'm not one of them...and the men who learn and apply what I teach aren't one of them either.

To be the kind of man who invokes this kind of non-sexual reaction is a CHOICE.

It may not have been at the beginning of the relationship but to now remain in a relationship IGNORANT of how to meet a woman's needs or of how to attract her to you as a husband IS a choice.
