Despite your attempts to find a workable level of sexual activity, it's not working. And she is shaming you inappropriately, even though you have seemingly tried to approach this on the agreed upon terms.
You should break up. While it's not impossible for asexual people to date allosexual people, she doesn't seem capable of handling it maturely at this time. Therefore, you're not compatible. And that's okay. But now that you've figured that out, don't try to stress and contort your needs to fit a relationship that won't work for you.
To me, it would seem that if he has been made uncomfortable by the situation posed to him that it would be best to accept his wishes. If his concerns are that this new marriage will put the happy life you both have built with your son at risk, be it through religious consequence or through the emotion strain this will cause him, then that should be enough reason not to go through with it. Especially if he has gone out of his way to try and find a solution that best fits everyone given the circumstances.
But bare in mind, I myself am a Christian man and will admit that my knowledge of your faith may be lacking, so there may be more at play here I might not understand.
Break up with her. You're communicating something very serious and she is dismissing it.
My first relationship involved my ex-gf's entire friend group making fun of me and I stayed. It did a number on my mental health and she didn't do enough to stop it. Looking back, I should have left a long time ago since she was an international student from the British virgin Islands wanting citizenship and I had the ability to change her entire life despite being a “loser”.
After breaking up with her she figured it out really quick that she was in the wrong and went back to her island. You need to break up with her because she is dismissing your feelings despite the abusive behavior from her best friend while doing nothing to address it.
It sucks, but you shouldn't have to defend yourself against another male friend. Trust and believe that if the same situation came up, I'd beat that guys ass. Fuck you if you think you can come up to me and talk that shit in my face with zero threat. If that situation came up for me, my SO better talk some sense into him for his own safety. This is fucking ridiculous.
I'd breakup in order to prevent myself from throwing a hook to his chin. The audacity for someone to think they can say that shit to my face without any consequences. You're a better man than me for tolerating that bullshit
Imagine having kids with this dude? Their entire lives would be a fucking parasite haven.
No. No no no no. I won’t do it. No.
Don't get into the “sunk-cost fallacy” and stay with her just because it's been 8 years. It's time to move on.
“I have a girlfriend” means the person I’m dating identifies as a woman.
“I’m seeing someone” means I’m a dating a person and it’s none of your business who they are.
They both mean “I’m taken, thanks though.”
You should be the first to reach out because you asked for space.

What kind of ache is so deep inside you that you'd willingly hook up with someone who had lice
