This state of your marriage is also amazing to you because you read books saying that for many husbands, his number one or number two need is physical intimacy. When your husband doesn’t want sex, many questions can form in your mind.
This may start to cause insecurity on your part. Does he not love you anymore? Does he not find you attractive? While sometimes this may be the case, surprisingly, many times there are other factors..While this may not represent some of the biggest marriage problems, it can certainly be one of the top marriage problems when it reaches extremes.

Here are the surprising five answers and some solutions:
1. He may be experiencing some physical problems, and he is embarrassed to talk to you about it. some of these types of problems can be very damaging to his ego. Since he wants you to look up to him, he finds it difficult to talk about this kind of failure. Solution: work on keeping lines of communication open. Be understanding. Help him feel comfortable enough to talk to you. These types of problems can be helped by consulting a medical professional.
2. He may have something bothering him outside of the marriage. There may be countless pressures from his job. He may be experiencing stress. He may be worried about financial struggles. It may even surprise him that this type of stress affects the physical area of marriage. Solution: Give support. Find ways to help him relax. Reassure him of your respect.
3. He may need to connect on a deeper emotional level. You both may find this surprising, since many tend to connect the emotional level more to the wife.

Solution: Go beyond the superficial. When he wants to connect on deeper levels. Be there, ready to talk and to listen.
