Any suggestions on how to live life without any physical intimate contact?

Update:

On a side note, I am the wife in the relationship, and my husband wants to leave me because I want to have sex with him (there is more to it but that is the gist of things). It gets into me not being happy without it.

Update 2:

I won't cheat.

Update 3:

The reasons are difficult, but it comes down to my husband doesn't like to be touched. It has been going on for 5 years and I can do some things myself but I can't hug nor kiss myself, and I miss that. I was just wondering how I can get over missing that.

Update 4:

When we got married he did want intimacy, it trickled off till nothing since then. Also, I have a very good level of self-esteem, I just don't believe that marriage means nothing and breaking up a family. We have 3 wonderful children together, and we still love each other. I just want it to work.

    You already know this one. He/you both either need some serious counseling, or he needs to have his doctor adjust his meds. Theres no reason you shouldn't be physically intimate if you want to be.

    Why on earth would you marry a man who didn't want intimacy in the relationship? AND you've put up with it for 5 years? Wow. You've got some gutter level self esteem. Have you tried counseling?

    i`m not sure why you would want to live like that but it is possible to do so you can use toys and porn as a substitute but if your reasons are because of a sickness then their are support groups that might help you and your husband

    haha. I agree with the person above me. If you don't have physical intimate contact with your partner, I'm sure they will find someone else to be intimate with.
