We have three children together – and frankly, it’s amazing we managed that, as she has zero interest in sex, whereas I have a high sex drive. I’d like to have it several times a day and I enjoy being adventurous and trying new things.
My wife and I get on well, have similar interests and have a laugh together, but we’re totally incompatible sexually.
She has never wanted to discuss it and thinks I’m the one with the problem. It makes me feel rejected and down.
Recently her sister, who is 23, has been flirting a lot with me. She is tall, blonde and gorgeous and although I’m trying to resist her, it’s getting difficult.
How can I tell my wife I’d rather be with her sister?

DEIDRE SAYS: Woah, slow down there. You’re considering leaving your wife and three children for her younger sister who has flirted with you?
Try not to let lust cloud your judgment. You say you love your wife, so ideally you should try to get your marriage back on track.
Please tell her you need to sort out your sex life. Don’t let her fob you off, as this is clearly key, and suggest some counselling with Relate (relate.org.uk).
My support packs on Different Sex Drives and Torn Between Two Women will help.
