My Husband Refuses to Even Touch Me and He Won’t Tell Me Why


DEAR DEIDRE: MY husband refuses to have sex with me and won’t tell me why.

He won’t let me cuddle or touch him. It is like I have a contagious disease.

I feel some days like I could just walk into the sea and keep going until there is no coming back and then other days I just want to pack a bag and leave. I don’t want to be just like a flatmate.

I am 47 and my husband is 53. We have been together for 25 years and have three adult kids who have all left home.

If he doesn’t want me as a wife, I can’t make him love me. I have tried to talk to him, but he just rolls his eyes at me or I get shouted at.

All I know is that I can’t live like this any longer. I think I may as well just leave.


DEIDRE SAYS: He must realise you need to know what’s going on. Say you’re worried about him and your relationship.

Dismissing you suggests he feels defensive or embarrassed, so could it be he has experienced erection problems?

My e-leaflet on Reviving A Man’s Sex Drive can help you sort this. He needs to see his GP for a check up to rule out an underlying medical reason.
