Although my marriage may appear perfect on the surface, the reality is quite different. My husband and I have not been intimate for a decade, and I had to resort to IVF in order to become pregnant.
My husband Jon is the kind of man who brings home flowers simply because he thought of me, surprises me with theatre tickets, cooks elaborate meals, and we often fall asleep wrapped in each other’s arms. My friends frequently comment on how much he adores me. When we are out with other couples, his hand remains gently on my knee. Even after 30 years together, he still treats me as if I am the most captivating person in the room.
However, there is one painful issue: he has no interest in having sex with me. Jon has always had a very low libido, even from the beginning of our relationship. I fell in love with him for his personality—his affection, kindness, and sense of fun.
