My wife and I don’t have sex and she refuses to talk about it. Should I just give up?

It breaks my heart to hear about Sarah's situation 😔. Sexless marriages are super common and it's crazy how many couples don't even try to have "the talk" 🤷‍♀️. I think it's awesome that Pamela Stephenson Connolly is out there helping people navigate this stuff 💁‍♀️. Her advice to not shy away from discussing desires in therapy is totally on point 🙌. But omg, can you imagine feeling like a total weirdo when your partner doesn't want to talk about it 😳? I'm all for couples trying new things together, but sometimes it's just better to accept that you won't be getting that spark back 🔥. Anyways, if you're in a similar situation, don't lose hope! Seek help, talk to someone, and remember your feelings are valid 💖.
 
I don't know about this whole "just talk it out" thing 🤔... I mean, I get why Sarah feels ashamed and unattractive when she's rebuffed, but isn't it kinda scary to have the conversation? What if her wife really doesn't want to talk about it? Or what if they just can't come to an agreement? It feels like a minefield waiting to be stepped on. And what about the power dynamic? Is Sarah feeling like she's being rebuffed because she wants it too much or something? I don't know, man... I'm not sure I'd want to dive into that conversation anytime soon 😐.
