Yes if your partner is refusing you.

These days, when statistics show that 1 in 2 couples will end up divorced, I think you should pat yourself on the back for sticking with it this long. Sex is an important element in a relationship and despite what romantic comedies portray, love is NOT enough all day every day. People are very physical and social. Males especially will have a hard time not receiving any kind of physical intimacy because you are hardwired to feel that way, your body secretes hormones for a reason and they aren't going to be banished by wishful thinking. I would talk with your partner about it and your issues with the lack of intimacy. If they aren't willing to make the effort then you can consider your options.

Um...I am assuming you were asking if it would be okay? NO. cheating is never okay, it's never the answer. Something has worked for 26 years, and maybe you guys just need to figure out how to get it back....maybe some counseling will help....is there a medical reason why you no longer have sex? Take time for each other, go on romantic dates, do things together, just work to rekindle your spark!

'Its'?
You should attempt to talk about your lack of a sex life and explore other things, perhaps working your way back up to this thru massage, etc.
of course, the other person may be 1) getting sex elsewhere, 2) no longer interested (to you or your gender) 3)just not have that much of a sex drive.
I think your response for your own needs will depend on why the situation has come about. If you are sexually incompatible (lack of desire) then... but if it's medical/psyhchological and you both want to do something about it and think it's worth it then...

Sorry to say this, but no. It's not okay for you to have sex with another person even if you haven't had sex with your spouse for 26 years. I don't think there's ever a limitation that will make it okay. You promised to love, honor, and obey, foresaking all others.
You could always be with yourself, though. I think that's still legal! ;-)

That is between you and your partner and how you wold both feel...but don't think that just because you may be getting some on the side doesn't mean your partner might want to do the same...have you asked her/him why you haven't had sex? Marriage is serious and I personally wouldn't do that just because I said in my vows....good and bad....find a solution besides infidelity. Best of Luck

Why dont you talk to your spouse, how would you feel if they went and got sex from someone else, adultry is adultry no matter how you look at it, you could always try doing something to make your spouse want to have sex with you, there are lots of options before cheating and screwing up a marriage.

Why would you want to have sex with someone who isn't the person you love? If you feel you're in a marriage that has no love as a basis then divorce that person and find someone who you do love and who will satisfy your every need.

It goes against everything marriage stands for and you would be hurting the people you love in several different ways.
But if you are no longer satisfied in the marriage, why don't you just get a divorce and then you can be free to do whatever your heart desires?

I dont think the question should be where can I go to get it, the question should be what can I do to help the relationship I have to improve, maybe you havent been making your spouse feel very much like making love, so maybe you should work on fixing your relationship instead of looking somewhere else.
