I'm going on 4 months since our last "sexual" encounter. At least 7-8 months since anything with meaning and intimacy. I hate it. Absolutely hate it. I'm not an overly sexual person, but the connection that comes from true intimacy... I think it really feeds the spirit.
It's hell living with someone that you have no emotional connection too. The kids even said today, "Geez, Dad left and he didn't even say goodbye to you!" And the little one (3!) said, "Yeah, not even a hug and kiss. That's not right Mom!" No, it's not right... and that's why we need to end this chirade.
