My Husband and i have been married for 11 years, he has always been a bit of a sex addict but i was hoping as he got older this would level out to a reasonable amount. Not the case infact the reverse has happened, he demands sex at least 3 times a day and often 1 to 2 of these times are when i am trying to sleep. Its causing serious problems between us, we argue about this daily. It leaves me feeling like a piece of meat there for his sexual gratification and it doesnt seem to matter to him if i want to or not. Really need some advice here, i feel like we are getting close to breaking point

What you’re describing isn’t normal. If he is truly an addict of any kind, he needs professional help. My advice is that you have him see a doctor and that you ask him if you can meet with the doctor with him, too. Disrupting your sleep on a regular basis is going to lead to a cranky wife at best!

Make sure his annual physical is up to date so there’s no biological or chemical problem behind his behavior, and then get some professional help to rule out (or deal with) addiction.

I hope that helps. Let me know how things go.

In the meantime, I hope you’ll follow me @AskAprilcom on Twitter and on Facebook at this link: [url][/url].
