Chastity and orgasm denial discussion

I was reflecting on my current state versus where I started, and it strikes me as amusing how intimacy turned one relationship into a nightmare while making another feel like a dream. Sexless marriage: defined as having sex ten times or fewer per year. I spent 15 years in that kind of setup. Now I’m with someone who has slightly more than that frequency, but not by much. The key difference… just one word: intimacy. Even if I don’t always reach orgasm, we engage in sexual connection hundreds of times. The impact of this single word is huge. It’s the touches, caresses, looks, casual innuendo, and satisfying your partner without it being solely about getting off. And what about that specific type of sexual intimacy? It feels 400% more frequent, kinkier, and fulfilling compared to the sparse pity sex I had before chastity. True, I did have more orgasms back then, but most were solitary and somewhat depressive. The reason I mention it is that while browsing online, I found an article on how to save a sexless marriage. It brought a smile to my face realizing that even though I experience fewer orgasms than they suggest, I’ve never felt better.
