Okay, now that I’ve got your attention, the real question is, can a lack of sex ruin your marriage?
There are days heavens know you have no single libido left, getting physical is the last thing you may want. Your whole body aches from head to toe and nothing you need badly at that moment like a sweet, sound sleep!
So what do you do when your spouse looks at you with that look?
You know what it means, but you just don’t want to do it.
So, what do you do?
Have that sex of course!
Far too many couples let days without sex turn into weeks or even months. The truth is that sex is an integral part of marriage. When it doesn’t happen, one spouse member can feel neglected or rejected. That can turn into anger and bitterness.
One day, the communication just shuts off. Fights over meaningless things turn into threats of separation or even divorce.
A successful marriage involves two parties who constantly make sacrifices for each other. You don’t joke with sex in marriage! Libido is not something you play with. Denying your spouse sex is playing with fire!
As long as you are not sick or tired, you shouldn’t deny your husband sex. As long as nothing is wrong with you physically, you shouldn’t deny your wife sex.
The Apostle Paul believed that married Christians should have regular sex to avoid temptations of all kinds. In 1 Corinthians 7:3-5, he wrote:
“The husband must [a]fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and [b]come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.”
Yes, your husband should understand you when you are sick and tired, understandable! Yes, your wife should give you a break when you are fatigued, understandable, but when it has to do with low desire and nothing else, you have to step up your desire or simply make sacrifice to accommodate your spouse!
God ordained sex as a part of marriage for a reason. This most intimate of acts reminds you of your “oneness” in Christ. Enjoy one another for it’s right in the sight of the Lord.
You may find that sex is a cure for what ails your marriage. It should rekindle affection and intimacy and drive you back to one another. It can help open lines of communication back up and be a tool to help heal and restore your marriage.
