I can have sex with you and not give one dam if you are sexually fulfilled or not. This is where women tend to go wrong. Biblically speaking, just having sex does NOT satisfy the requirements of a christian marriage.

On what scripture are you basing this?
"Show me a completely smooth operation and I'll show you someone who's covering mistakes. Real boats rock." -- Frank Herbert
I have read the SOng of Solomen. It effectively is the basis of most marriage books today. There is no way that having "Just Sex" can live up to the expectations of that book. God intends for sex to be a physical connection AND an emotional connection AND a spiritual connection. Sex is about the incredibly DEEP connection that it can bring, it is NOT about the physical release only.
Cemar if in your knowledge your wife is not fulfilling her role as a wife in a Christian marriage does that not require that you address the situation as the husband through some possible assistance through your church? What are the possible consequences of her not fulfilling her role as christian wife in your eyes?
Cemar, YOUR role as a Christian husband is to lead your wife. If you feel she isn't fulfilling her role, what are YOU going to do about it. Remember, a good leader doesn't force his followers to do anything, and doesn't "fix" his followers, rather he takes stock of the talents and temperments of his followers and molds his leadership approach to the resources he has. You know your wife, you know your goals. Now be a good leader.
Okay... for all the newcomers... here is valuable information you need to know about CeMar... that took all of us here about three years to find out. And CeMar, please, correct me if I am wrong... I don't want to misspeak.
This is CeMar's second marriage. He is very anti-divorce now. Anyone can change, yes... but to me... it seems the ONLY thing he ever quotes from the bible is regarding 'divorce' and sex.
Mrs. CeMar, according to CeMar, I think, is not as devout in her religious beliefs as CeMar seems to be.
Mrs. CeMar had a very traumatic childhood, which very possibly included sexual abuse.
CeMar has read a TON of relationship books, and can, from time to time, offer very astute and even empathetic observations.
If you work all day to make a point with CeMar... it kind of goes into the ether and you never know if he heard you, did something with it or not... little in the way of feedback comes from him.
This isn't to slam him... but as I've traveled around the block with him a few thousand times now... I am willing to offer him all the compassion I can... but as I began to feel like a victim of his apparent pain... I just refer him to all past discussions and send him off around the block on his own, if he insists on going there yet again. I'm done going around and around with him.
Well... that is why I asked you to correct me... I apologize. I thought I remembered you saying you had been married previously. Which kind of stunned me... but, now I know why... I misread. However, sorry, buddy, the only parts of the bible you talk about are in regard to how you can't get divorced, and anything regarding sex.
