What's wrong with having a sexless marriage? I personally wouldn't mind being in one as long as the woman can accept that. I finally realized that relationships aren't just about sex.

people have needs, surpressing those needs too long leads to dissatisfaction, anger, unhappyness. Maybe you'll be fine for some time, but someday you'll want to have sex again... If your wife has shorter patience, she'll be unhappy soon...

Nothing, if you can stand the futility and frustration, go for it.

That might be nice sometimes, sex has complicated my life quite a bit, sex makes some people too possessive and crazy

Well, first of all, it isn't wise to frame a question by stating your opinion. There's nothing "wrong" about a sexless marriage. Besides, not everyone has a strong sex drive. But the vast majority of human beings enjoy sex and have sexual urges. It's only natural, so most marriages--even in highly religious households--involve at least some level of sexual activity. When people talk about sexless marriages, they are referring to people who have these sex drives, but aren't getting enough physical intimacy. Some people (such as yourself) may be fine with a lack of physical contact, but most people need a certain amount of sex as a PART of their relationship. Without this kind of attention, most relationships can face some problems, or even fail. True, relationships certainly aren't JUST about sex. But sex is definitely a factor.

By the way, even though there's nothing wrong with a sexless marriage, is there a reason why you want less of it? Are you doing this just for fun or something?

Health reasons can make a lot of marriages ones without sex. If you love that person it is not the most important thing in the world.

I guess there's nothing wrong with it. To each their own. But I wouldn't be in one. Maybe you're just a guy with a different sex drive than most, and that's fine. But I love sex and I don't think I could be in a sexless marriage. No way. Relationships may not be just about sex, but I also believe that sex is one of the most overlooked aspects of a relationship, and it is a big reason that many relationships and marriages struggle and eventually end.

Nothing is wrong with it, as long as you both agree. There's nothing wrong with any kind of marriage as long as you both agree. Sexless, loveless, affectionless, communicationless. . . whatever works for the two of you, is fine. The problem comes in when you're not on the same page.

Whoever told you there was something wrong with it was wrong. People live together, are married, and live their entire life in their own way. No one has the right to say what is wrong in a marriage, and what is right, except the two people who are married to each other. If they are both happy with their arrangement, that is all that counts.
