“There wasn’t a lot of intellectual stimulation,” she said.

“But I had kinda run out of options,” she added.

“Like, I couldn’t date a non-Christian and I couldn’t really date anybody outside of the group – So it just became this sort of arranged situation.”

Despite sharing how she has a “crazy sex drive”, Lenz admits she never felt that sort of connection with her ex-partner.

“It felt like this promise that I had been given as a good evangelical was a big crock.”

“Like, what the heck? I thought if I save myself for marriage, then the promise is amazing sex and super deep intimacy, and nothing’s ever as good,” she explained.

She continued to explain how when having sex with her ex-husband, she would feel “sad” and often find herself feeling “farther away” as opposed to “more connected” to him.

“And then we have sex, and it’s like, ‘Why do I feel so sad? I don’t feel more connected to you. I feel farther away from you.’”

“And I don’t think that necessarily had anything to do with saving myself for marriage,” she added.

She continued: “It was just that I married the wrong person.”

Lenz went on to claim that “QB”, her ex, drafted up a “sex schedule” for the two to follow.

“Because I was so disinterested in sex, I was then asked to go on a schedule, basically, of, like, ‘You just have to do it. Just do it. This is your duty’,” she claimed.

“‘This is your job as a wife. Your emotions will fall in line.’”

“If you do it enough, then eventually, you will find a way to enjoy it.’”

“It was a routine that I had to participate in in order to keep the peace in my marriage,” she added.

When “QB” would return home after being out of town, Lenz claims to have an instantly nervous response to his return in knowing that the “schedule” would be back in play.

“My stomach dropped every single time,” she claimed.

“In fact, it really affected my relationships afterwards [with] other boyfriends when I had to go pick them up from the airport,” she added.

She continued: “I had so much PTSD from showing up at the airport to see him knowing that I was gonna have to start this sex schedule for the next, like, 2 weeks or 3 weeks or whatever.”
