Can a marriage survive without sex?
I am in love with a man who is about ten years older than me. He's a great guy. He keeps himself in great shape and is well put together in other ways as well. I'm in my mid-thirties and we've been talking about marriage, but I don't want to have sex with him. I think he's attractive, but I just don't find myself willing to sleep with him. Can a marriage survive without sex?

Dear Britt,
Yes they can, as long as both partners agree to how their sexual needs will be met. I think you should consider getting a checkup and telling your doctor you have no sexual desire. If you do have desire, but you just don't want to sleep with your guy, then you need to be upfront with him and tell him it's not likely to happen. If he doesn't want sex, then you're home free. If he does, and you can fake quality or commit to quantity, then you need to give him the option of bein with someone else.
