I've even heard of some people in sexless marriages where they haven't had sex with their spouse for like around 6 or 7 years. I don't think I could handle that. The thing that's selfish in that kind of situation is one spouse is effectively saying, "I don't want to have sex with you, but you can't have sex with anyone else, either." I think an open relationship would definitely help out there.
I've read that the problem usually relates more to the relationship and the buildup of resentments than to the sex drive. Resolving the problems in the relationship can reignite sexual passion, or so therapists claim.
