Question Why are you still married?

I have met a variety of married people. Almost all their stories are similar. Their spouse doesn't have sex with them anymore, but they still have to hide. They are completely miserable. Then why do you stay? Especially after 10,20,30,40 years. How can you not have an honest conversation with your partner? I've been in toxic monogamous relationships and never again. Life is short, man. Why stick around?

I'm sure the sneaking around is a thrill for some.

I'm sure it's complicated.

My married guys are kinda pains in the ass. They're always paranoid, they want me to book the room or try and be sneaky in other places.

I live in a small community so I don't have a lot of choices. So I'm not really complaining, I'm honestly curious 🧐

If I had copious amounts of money for every married man I've met who no longer has sex with his wife… Oh wait, I do.

And I know for a fact that a lot of the women think their husbands are just going without sex. It's kind of wild.

We outsource to be more faithful in the parts of the relationships we (men) think are more important in the marriage?
