Re: Asexual with a mom who thinks it's "sick and fucked up"...feeling sad

Seriously, the person you're judging here is the OP, and not the mom who is unloading onto her daughter her complaints about her sex life with the OP's dad?

I think, more than anything else, I'm reacting to the judgment that I'm seeing here, that OP's mom is childish and immature not because she's dumping her dissatisfaction with her nonexistent sex life on her daughter, but because, and I quote, "she's not getting any and she places so much importance on that that it's damaging her sense of self-worth." I got the impression that OP's mom was someone whose needs were not only not being met, but were being dismissed as silly. And that posters thought she was foolish and childish to let that affect her sense of self worth. As if having your needs (or even your wants) go unmet, and your distress about that dismissed, couldn't possibly cause a person to feel devalued in their relationship.

Now, with the additional information OP has provided, it sounds like OP's mom knew going into the marriage that she was getting the Last of the Shakers, and she went ahead thinking that she was going to change her husband. That puts a very different complexion on the matter for me.
