Can a sexless relationship ever be fixed?

The old chestnut of this isn't my relationship (it isn't. I'm single) but can a sexless relationship ever bounce back to having a meaningful sex life and the resentment etc be fixed? If so, what changed and helped resolve the issue?

It depends on why it is sexless , really. I have a wonderful relationship with DH despite being sexless, but that's because he has severe ED and there is nothing either of us can do about it.

You say you are not in a relationship, so are you talking about someone else ? If so it's really up to them whether they can fix this, or whether it is a permanent situation.

It only needs to be fixed if one wants sex and the other doesnt. If you both are not bothered with having a physical relationship then nothing needs to be done.

I’ve not had sex with my bf for about 8 months (been together 4 years). There’s a lot of resentment on each side.. I just don’t find him attractive, he puts no effort into anything.. sex included; and he has terrible personal hygiene. I miss sex and affection but he isn’t someone I want to touch me. I love him and want to be with him..just miss sex!
