I completely went off the mother of my two older kids when we lived together. Ended up in separate rooms etc, but I thought that was OK... at the time. I hadn't lost my sex drive, she just repulsed me. I would have been quite happy to go on like that but she went elsewhere to satisfy her needs. My immediate thoughts were to congratulate the poor guy on being so brave and/or drunk to manage it. She left me for him (on my birthday, bets pressie ever!) and he promptly left her about 2 weeks later. Which was nice

It seems like a lot of people here have experience of or see giving up sex as a sign that the relationship is in trouble anyway. But is that always the case? What if a couple still enjoy being together, have a lot of shared history and are in a supportive and generally happy relationship, just aren't 'doing the do'? Is there an age limit on when that happens?
I think everyone's different. And just as there will be older couples still very active, there may be younger ones who just aren't that bothered any more.

Scribbler - I think that's a very valid point. I don't particularly relish the idea of being the age where physical activity becomes less likely. Either way, it has to be a mutual thing though.

In my view if you aren't doing it then you're just friends.

I'm with Scribbler also - each to his/her own, applies to couples as well.

There's a lot to be said for being friends though. Some married couples aren't.
