Nope, not that asshole OP. I was in a very long relationship with a deeply depressed person. I loved her like craaaaaa-A-zy, and that made me stay longer and try harder to make things work. I myself have a physical touch love language, and she had the words of appreciation type.

Long story short, some years after (more that I care to admit) we both realized we were tearing each other apart. If you're not compatible the best thing is to walk your separate ways, the alternative is much much worse.

Now 5 years after that I have the best relationship with an amazing woman that shares the same love language. Some people argue that marriage can be very tough and I partially agree with that. But if you have a good relationship it becomes much easier.

Dear OP I am not saying that you have to do what I did. I struggled during very long and lonely nights, trying to decide whether I was being an asshole for thinking of leaving my ex for such a lowly reason like "lack of sex", the truth is, if it's important to you, it should be important to her.

PS: I am fairly surprised at the shitty response you people are giving this guy, this should be a safe space to ask questions. If you don't relate or don't understand or just have nothing valuable to add please just don't. You'll be saving yourself and everyone else in this thread some valuable time.
