After 2 years of trying to make it work, I have finally realised that it’s not going to work. We get on fine but there’s no sex and I need more.

But it was 2 years of my life and he’s a good man.

Feeling so sad Sad

You know what is worse then being in a bad relationship for two years? Being in a bad relationship for two years and a day.

I know @adayatthebeach but he’s a lovely person and adores me. But it lacked passion and I felt like part of me was slowly dying. He didn’t seem to need the same things so he’s devastated too as he’d have happily carried on as we were.

I admire you for not leading him on further.

There’s another thread active from a woman whose partner said that he wasn’t in love with her - but he was too gutless actually to end it. Similarly, a friend of mine is stringing along a very nice woman even though he feels no spark, he enjoys the companionship and she’s reliable.

It’s no way to live. It’s not fair.

From someone who has wasted their entire life's with the wrong person. Well done!

Thanks for the nice posts. I’m not feeling very brave today. Starting to really miss the good things in the relationship. But I know I can’t live with a man who doesn’t have physical desire for me. Feeling very sad.

Well done you for taking the right step for you. I tonight have also taken that step but it was because my husband had an affair. We deserve better and yes it hurts like hell now but we will thank our selfs in time xxx
