483. The Hidden Marriage Killer: Obligatory Sex - With Austin Part 1

Obligatory sex is when one spouse engages in sexual activity not because they feel desire, but because they feel pressured, obligated, or afraid of disappointing their spouse. We hear this all the time where the lower desire spouse just has sex out of obligation and both couples are unhappy. When this happens regularly, this dynamic erodes trust, creates resentment, and negatively impacts emotional and physical intimacy for both spouses. Many couples fall into this pattern unknowingly. It may start with good intentions: one spouse wants to please the other, avoid conflict, or keep peace in the marriage. But what begins as a gesture of love can quickly transform into a ritual devoid of passion or connection.When this is happening in a marriage, BOTH husbands and wives are negatively impacted in different ways. In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast we talk about the negative impacts of this on both spouses and share what couples that are experiencing this can do.
