I was with my ex for 34 year and married 32 of those. I know this is unpredictable but I just can’t seem to get any sex drive not interest in sex yet. Is this common? Something new for me…never had a problem before.
Im sorry to hear this news, I have a similar situation, My issues were due to the stress of the commitment and the sudden loss, as a form of ptsd. In time the libido will return, after the brain has time to rewrite its processes…

Looking through the mojo comments you’ll find heaps and heaps of guys have a loss of sex drive, interest and functioning after relationship breakups - including relativity short relationships. So yeah I’d say it is common and to give yourself time to find yourself again - you’ve likely got other stuff to work through first.

I was married for 10 years and felt the same way after divorce. I had a hard time feeling horny and keeping it up. Or, I should say I HAVE a hard time. I have been dating someone that has been patient with me and is working with me, and it’s been 4 years since my divorce. My marriage was a bit abusive sexually though, so that also doesn’t help. My ex always acted like I was bothering her when I’d try to initiate.
But I have hope and am way happier lately!
This was me! Was with my ex wife for 25 years with absolutely no problems with sex! One day she wanted “out” and I had the most stressful 2 years of my life going through the divorce process! The stress of the divorce was extreme! It was this stress that caused my Ed problem! 3 months after the split- tried sex with someone else and just had no chance of getting it up! I had absolutely zero labido! It freeked me out completely! Tried every pill in the book! Macca etc which I found to be useless! Been just over 2 years now and the anxiety has just started to fade! Have a wonderful partner who understands completely and is very patient. So I guess it is starting to improve! It was the constant anxiety of the divorce/ money/kids that killed all sex drive! So yes it’s normal. It will return! Just be patient.
