1. I’m a woman living with a supportive, caring man. We’ve been together — on and off — for twenty years. The sex is always hot when we get back together. Then, after a year, the sex fades to nothingness. I believe the problem is that hot “reunited” sex only turns me on for a … Read More »

The Thursday Letter

On Thursdays I share a question from a reader and let my readers give the advice. I don’t even know how to start. I’m a 28-year-old female. I’ve been in two longterm relationships since I was fifteen, with only a couple of months between the first and the second. I’ve always had problems with sex. … Read More »

Doom and Groom

Should I feel weird about my husband’s grooming situation when he was young with a family friend if he doesn’t feel weird about it? He’s mid-thirties. He’s known this woman since he was seven and she used to babysit for him. She was a family friend. Once she returned to England, my husband went to visit … Read More »

The Thursday Letter: The Eternal Question

The Thursday Letter this week is a long one, gang, and it’s about a subject we’ve talked about before: the sexless marriage. I’ve responded to tons of letters over the years from people in sexless marriages — I vaguely recall writing a column fifteen or twenty years ago declaring myself done with the subject — … Read More »

Borders Crossed

How do you feel about the rise of “passport bros”? A friend of mine rearranged his life after his divorce and now spends about half the year overseas dating. He insists it’s not exploitation or colonialism — just a life hack — since his income goes three times as far abroad. He’s basically able to … Read More »

Straight Up

Dear Readers: I’m off this week. So, let’s enjoy — and perhaps relitigate — this column from July 12, 2022. — Dan I’m a cis woman in her 30s who lives on the East Coast. I’ve been in an LTR with the same cis man for 12 years. No issues there at all! But we … Read More »

Struggle Session is a bonus column where I respond to comments. I also share a question submitted to Savage Love and let my readers have the first crack at giving the advice. No Struggle Session today, as I am off this week. But while next week’s column is a repeat (because I am off this … Read More »

Quickies

1. My spouse and I haven’t had sex for almost two years. No kids, jobs aren’t stressful, and we still enjoy each other’s company. (At least I enjoy theirs.) The subject of sex never comes up. I don’t miss it, honestly, and I suspect they don’t either. But I don’t know. It’s possible your spouse … Read More »

I also share a question submitted to Savage Love and let my readers have the first crack at giving the advice. Laura on Instagram made a great point… Longtime listener and reader. I love your advice and have learned a … Read More »
