Hi Sir/Madam, I have a friend who want to take divorce from his wife, they are just 2 years married and have a 6 month baby. My friend's main concern is her wife does not have any interest in him,, meaning she does not have any concentration over him and she does not have any kind of love or affection towards him, even in bed. She used to say "I don't like men at all, I don't like to sleep with you(meaning having sex with you), I don't like to live with you, I can live without sleeping with you for lifetime- is it possible for you to live like that etc". Moreover she does not talk, laugh or play, she lives entirely in her own world-internet, calling aunts, amma, laptop etc. Whenever he needs her, he approaches her and get satisfied but the same is never from his wife which annoys him the most. She never approaches him. Moreover she likes to live with her mom, therefore she lived there 15 out of 24 months at her mom's residence in this 2 years of time. My friend is telling she has zero interest/likeness in sex and she never been attentive towards him in any matter- work, inside & outside home. My friend showed a lot of love towards her at first, but day-by-day he is losing interest on her and now he is looking for divorce. Can he get the divorce for this reason.

It is not easy and hence not advised to go for divorce specifically when they are having little baby.
Your friend should take help of relatives, common friends to save marriage. Marriage counselor / psychiatrist may be contacted to find real cause of such attitude.

Denial of sexual relationship in marriage may amount to cruelty. Divorce could be sought.
However, the welfare of the child also needs to be considered.

Sir I need clarity so I am repeating the points:
1> his wife does not have any interest of sex or man, this lead to major dissatisfaction in my friend though he is allowed for sex by his wife.
2> also she does not show any kind of love & affection towards him, also he never find any attention from her in this 2 years of married life.
He feels the life is miserable and tells he is desperately in need of a new companion in life. He is ready to take custody of child in case of divorce. Will he be able to get divorce in this case?
