My husband won’t make any effort to please me in bed

This may be more to do with ageing than a lack of love. Talk about it – hopefully you can work out a new repertoire together

My husband won’t make any effort to please me in bed

TL;DR

  • The wife, 20 years younger than her husband, is unhappy with their sex life after having a baby.
  • She experiences painful sex due to health issues and takes a long time to orgasm, while her husband orgasms quickly and gets impatient.
  • Her husband's past experiences as a "lover" to many women and his suggestions for non-monogamy are causing distress.
  • A sex therapist suggests the problem may be a lack of connection and curiosity from the husband, possibly related to aging or low energy.
  • The therapist advises open communication to understand the husband's lack of interest and suggests exploring new sexual activities as a couple.
