I love my husband, but he is highly sexual, an he does respect that I just don't like sex, I don't know what to do or even why I just don't like it?

How long married? Any kids? What is your marriage like? What are the biggest issues? How much time do you spend together?

A big part of the reason why is that he works out of town. Women need two things to enjoy sex: an emotional attachment to the man and the prospect of enjoyment. If those 2 criteria are met she almost always enjoys sex and doesn't mind meeting his needs even though sex is not a top need for her. You can't feel emotionally attached or even sustain the love in a marriage if you don't spend every night together.

Check this out: The question of the ages: How can a husband receive the sex he needs in marriage?
