What the heck is a friendship type marriage? I want to know because I think my wife operates now like you were doing in the past. I truly can not understand how anyone would want a marriage to be only friends with no sex. Without sex, at best you are only friends, and you can be that way with ANYONE, there is NOTHING SPECIAL about this kind of relationship. Do women actally think that they can have a successful relationship with a man without sex? This just seems so foreign to me.
