I am a 40+ man married for 15 years. But due to some marital issues, we have almost no sex.  We have sex only 2-3 times a year. When I ask, she almost always refuses. How should we improve our relationship to improve our sex life? Due to this, I masturbate daily. Please help me.

    Without knowing the marital issues that have come between you, it’s impossible for me to advise you how to improve your relationship. I urge you to see a marriage counselor or clergy person or someone you both trust who can help you deal with your issues. You don’t have to have a perfect relationship to enjoy regular sex, but you need a marriage that’s not paralyzed by serious issues. Do whatever it takes to work on your issues.

    By the way, it’s fine to masturbate daily. It doesn’t cause any physical or emotional harm.

    There is a problem with doing this for the long term unless there are some very extenuating circumstances in my view. Masturbation can get you over some droughts — but, in my view, it is a poor form of primary sexual expression in a married adult — man or woman. How many years do you try and wait for it to improve before you reach “too long”? I waited a long time — the last 3 years with no sex.

    Sex disputes generally are not only about sex. Good luck.
