When couples discover fundamental sexual incompatibility despite deep love

My partner and I have been together for three years and we love each other deeply but we've realized we want completely different things from sex and intimacy and every conversation about it feels like we're speaking different languages. We keep trying to compromise but it's starting to feel like we're both just performing versions of ourselves that don't actually exist.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who genuinely love each other are discovering that their core needs for intimacy may be irreconcilable, forcing them to question whether love alone is enough.
