To want a shag?

I am in a warm, loving, affectionate and sexless marriage.

I cannot recall the last time we DTD, three plus years at least.

He doesn't even wake up with morning glory any longer! I am not overly desperate for sex but I am mildly concerned that he isn't even starting the day standing to attention.

I've tried talking to him but he brushes it to oneside.

I simply don't know how to get him to find out where his sex drive has gone!

What naze said.

Are you sure it's warm and affectionate? Or is it just pleasant and functional?

The OP said she was not overly desperate for sex. She is concerned for her dh, not desperate for a shag! You don't ltb because you are mildly concerned for him!

And as a failure to get an erection can be linked to serious health problems, she is right to be concerned and he is burying his head in the sand and not wanting to confront it. This does not need to have anything to do with how much he loves his dw.

Thank you for clarifying your position Fox.

I will persevere with trying to get him to the GP, not his favourite place and made even worse as he'll be there about his 'bits'.

Won't he even touch you? He could give you a helping hand... Doesnt have to be PIV. But yanbu

Sorry, Fox is right. If he won’t talk to you, he is effectively happy with your unhappiness with the situation as long as you’re not making him deal with it.
I was in this relationship - now we’re separated. Dh refuses to talk about it, ever, it was like pulling teeth.
Having sex and feeling wanted again is life changing.
