Great Guy, No Chemistry

Dear Ms. Sassy,
Basically I would like some advice. I am in a relationship with a great guy, almost everything I am looking for except....there is no passion. There is no sexual attraction. He is average looking, average build so its not that. I believe many other women would love to be with him I just don't know what my problem is. I should be happy but I am not. Do I stay and try to make it work or get out? Another factor is that I am 30 years old and want children. I feel I am running out of time, options. Help!!! -Passion Free

Passion Free,
I think it's so sad that you are trying to convince yourself to settle for a relationship free of passion. If you really thought that living out the rest of your life in a chemistry-less relationship was OK, then you wouldn't be seeking my advice. Obviously this is a situation that doesn't sit well with you, so stop trying to force it. The only people I know who are still HAPPILY married after 20+ years are people who are absolutely crazy about/passionately in love with their spouses. Believe me, once you find that with someone, you'll wonder how you were ever able to settle for a life without it. As for the whole "kids" situation, you're only 30. You've still got a good 10 years worth of viable eggs. If you're that concerned then freeze some eggs or adopt or do artificial insemination. You have lots of options.
