I was in a sexless/loveless marriage for far too long, but I stayed to raise the kids fully. It was extremely difficult and caused some pretty major psychological damage for sure. That was a sexless marriage due to a wife that just flat out stopped, and wanted no more. Different from that is sexless but not loveless. Usually when the woman is several years post menopause, and simply has no desire left, or even an aversion to sex. Completely different situation, less damaging to your soul, but difficult. Getting really difficult.
