What do I do to get my husband to make
love to me? He knows it's an issue and he
knows it's becoming a problem that needs
to be solved. I'm about at my wit's end.

Have you gone to counseling? Have you
discussed this with your husband? Why is
there no sex? Is it a medical issue?
There are so many variables here.

Wait. You've only been married for 6 years
and 5 of those years you haven't had sex?
I think this is truly something you need
to discuss with your husband. If he isn't
wanting sex for some reason. If it doesn't
please him... if he can't get an
erection... These are all things that only
he could tell you.
Frankly, if my husband rebuffed me even
one single time I'd ask him what his
problem is and I'd ask him immediately.

We talk about it and he knows it's a
problem. I'm almost 51 and he's 53.
I guess I'm wondering, should I go all out
and seduce him one more time and if it
fails, ask him to go for counseling with
me?

I would ask him to go to counseling
whether he goes for it or not. This is a
serious issue. As newlyweds you had sex
for 4 months and then nothing? Nothing at
all? That is not normal and it sounds like
avoidance of some other issue to me.
You talk about it, but continue not to
have sex. He knows it is a problem but
nothing is done to change it. Those are
the reasons for counseling. Whatever is
causing the apathy about the sexual
relationship.

Something definitely seems off. Did you
find a counselor?
