'I haven't had sex with my husband in 10 years, so I had an affair over Christmas'

ok.co.uk:

I've been lonely in my marriage for a very long time. My husband and I have been together for 20 years, but there hasn’t been any emotional or physical connection for the past decade.This unaffectionate relationship has become the norm.

I have a nice life – a house, a car, pets, holidays abroad. I have two kids who are happy and we have a good family dynamic.

But my husband, who’s 70, and I don’t have any connection at all. We have very little in common and don’t really talk to each other any more, We spend our evenings sitting on the sofa watching telly and having supper together, then we go to our separate bedrooms to sleep.

I think to myself, “I’m 51. I can’t live like this any more.” I’ve talked to him about it many times before, with the most recent time being about a month ago.
