What does a sikh guy do if hes in a marriage where his wife wont sleep with him. Its been a few years but then 9 months since the last time. We live like house mates, seperate bedrooms, absolutley no intimacy whatsoever. There is absolutley no family support. Theres just two of us in our home. Shes happy to live like this and i feel enjoys making me suffer and wont divorce as shes scared of her family and has no where to go. So basically its how its gna be. Its never going to be same in future as I know what its done to me these last few years.  Any guy might of went elsewhere but ive kept sikhi intact. but what the hell does a person do?

It affects self esteem, and start to question if im no good or not good enough. I didnt think it would but its so demotivating and affects every area of life. Even to the point of living sikh life as the joy of a companion is gone and its just constant pain of living eith someone who dont love me back.

Not a good situation to be in. 

SGGS Ang 403 has some strong lines which tell us and give us support to stand firm in character when faced with difficulties. 

(No one has bothered to answer because no one actually knows except you and her about why and how you ended up in this situation.)

However making some assumptions I will guess end some answers. It may be any of these, however it is for you to find out.

1. She may have turned ultra religious such that she feels a sexual relationship will affect her bhagti.

2. She has some health problem which probably gets better the further away she stays from you.

3. She has found someone else. This is a ploy of separate bedrooms and stuff... and after a while she will drop the divorce bomb on you first.

4. She may be stressed out doing some studying and work at the same time and feel you keep getting on the way - so best way is lead separate lives.

5. You have not been good to her and she is bitter to you because of something - and has decided to get her revenge and enjoy to see you suffer slowly.

 

Either way there are solutions ... the first of which is communication. You need to try to talk and find out. If it does not work... then unfortunately you may have to spy on her and see what she is doing, whom she is meeting and what her secret agenda is. 

Whatever way you choose - best of luck!!!!!!!

when a woman doesn't even want to be touched by her husband...usually means she is seeing someone else.

sorry brother.

You need to ask her directly about what the future of your marriage. Try to make it work. Try counseling and speaking with friends. Spend time with each other and find out what is happening. Tell her what you want and ask her what she wants. How can you work together to make that happen?

Good Luck

Sit with her and calmly find out what the problem is, express your side to her and try and come up with a mutual solution. 

 

Were all all free to do what we want, there is divorce but you made a vow in front of Guru Granth Sahib Ji so give it your best shot at trying to make it work. 

 

Dont treat her badly even if she treats you badly, two wrongs don't make a right. There are reasons women don't want intimacy, one may be that she may feel she'll lose her spirituality. If thats the case, love and respect her anyway and let her make her choices when she's ready to.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
