Have you tried marriage counseling?
1 comments

We have accepted the state of our marriage as it is today. The libido mismatch has some medical background, so it's not as if we are cruel to each other. We do sacrifice, but we do it for the children that we have chosen to have. We both accept that this marriage will end once they are done with HS.
Is there a reason to postpone it until the kids finish high school?

I tend to see a lot of this reasoning but never truly understood especially if both of you are on the same page.

Probably to maximize the time they both have with the kids and to minimize the impact to the kids’ lives during a time that’s already fraught with anxiety and doubt.
