Are you in a relationship where you don’t really have sex? You told us all the reasons why your life sex has stopped, from health issues and medication, neurodivergence and stress, to discovering your asexuality or a total loss of attraction and desire. In this ep, we hear how you’ve handled it, and debate whether you think it’s normal for your sex life to decline over time.
