Finally, a new edition of my most popular book: The Dead Bedroom Fix!
The audio version of the book has additional commentary not found in the print or e-book versions.
MEN: Are you in a dead bedroom (sexless marriage)? Divorced and don't want to go through that nightmare again?
YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
There are A LOT of men out there not happy with the level of intimacy in their marriage.
What is going on? Is the tried-and-true stereotype of the frustrated husband and the cold, bossy wife inevitable? Are monogamous relationships doomed to such a pitiful state of sexlessness? Is that just the way marriage is supposed to be?
I DON'T THINK SO.
To make a long story short, about eleven years ago I found out my wife of 15 years was cheating on me. We very quickly divorced and found myself newly single and sharing custody of three little kids. I then started a website called "Dad Starting Over". After chatting with many men in my situation, I slowly started to notice patterns of behavior. Most men experienced long "Dead Bedroom" (sexless marriage) periods in their relationship prior to their divorce. Many of these men later discovered infidelity. It's no coincidence that the two go hand-in-hand. The wife wanted intimacy, too. Just not with her husband.
I wrote about my thoughts on Dead Bedrooms on my website and it is by far the most popular topic to date. It has outranked all other topics combined. On the Dad Starting Over podcast and YouTube Channels, The Dead Bedroom episodes are the most downloaded/viewed.
Simply put, nobody seems to know what to do to keep the fire going in their long-term relationship. Most of us experience a "honeymoon phase" of intimacy, and then watch it quickly fade as the stress of life/kids and the boredom of familiarity settle in... and then the all-too-familiar sexless marriage.
