My client Tim, a 46-year-old software CEO, is crushing it at work. But he feels trapped at home.“With all my success, I kind of feel entitled,” he says.

“What do you mean?” I ask.

“Well…” He looks down for a moment before looking up again.

“I mean, you know why I’m here. My marriage is failing. And even though it’s not true, I feel like my wife should want me”

Do you experience success at work and struggle at home?

Tim’s wife has shut down on him. He experiences distance from her. And a lack of trust.

“She says I’m not emotionally available to her. I work too much. “

“And can you relate to that?” I ask.

“Yes, but how does she expect us to have the nice lifestyle we have?”

I nod.

Are you abundant career-wise but impoverished in love?

So… you may be thinking, what a cliché. Poor rich guy can’t get sex from his wife. But Tim is a real guy suffering.

He’s trying to find answers to why his wife is shut down on him.

He hasn’t been intimate with her for months. His heart hurts.

Has your wife shut the door on you when it comes to sex?

Tim and I talk about how trust is a huge factor for a woman to open up sexually.

“She has to feel emotionally safe,” I say.

But there’s another factor that he has not taken into consideration.

And that’s that she’s his only source of emotional intimacy. That is, at least when she’s open to him. And she hasn’t been for years.

Is your wife the primary person you rely on for sharing your deeper thoughts and emotions?

If so, like Tim, that’s a problem. It leads to something Tim discovered, called enmeshment.

Too much enmeshment kills a couple’s sex life.
