But

What's not okay is for one person to say, I don't care about sex anymore, you just need to deal with that, and end of conversation.

Not okay in a relationship.

And so I do want to make the person, if you are in a relationship and your partner has said that to you,

Dhru Purohit Show

you have a right to be upset about that, right?

Dhru Purohit Show

And that is something where you need to be able to feel empowered to sit down with your partner and say, intimacy is important.

And this is something that I really want to build with you and find a way forward to foster in our relationship.

And if the answer is still no, I think you need to consider whether or not you still wanna be in that relationship.

That's not a happy relationship.

Dhru Purohit Show

That's not a good place for either person to be living in, right?

Dhru Purohit Show

And so, I think you need to sort of honor

Dhru Purohit Show

sexual satisfaction is something that both people are entitled to if that's been agreed to upfront.

Now, I do want to say that there are couples that report high levels of relationship satisfaction where neither one of them really wants sex anymore, right?
