my boyfriend for over a year just recently stopped having sex with me, its like it went from 3 or 4 times a week and slowly went to not having it for almost 2 months, every time i ask him why he wont play with me anymore he always says i don't know, i didn't want to make it feel like i was bugging him but i guess it just hurt when he said he didn't know? So i kept asking him and then i finally got a response which i just think he gave me so i would stop asking and he just said i feel like your getting bored of me. I've tried many times to tell him that its not really about the sex its about being with him and he still wont have sex with me.. i feel like i'm not wanted or i'm not good enough. I just want to know what the problem is, sex used to be a big part of our relationship and now its nothing.

I know it shouldnt but this is really making me depressed i've been crying more because of this i get mad easly because he just seems like he doesnt care anymore. Also i know he doesn't have a STD or anything else we get checked.

I have the same problem. My boyfriend and I have lived together for a year and have went from having sex atleast once a day to maybe once every other week for 3 or 4 minutes if im lucky. 99% of the time if i can manage to beg enough to get him to have sex with me, he either gets it over with as fast as possible or it goes limp as soon as he has to touch me. Im attractive and thin and i know what im doing i cant understand why hes so uninterested in me anymore. Hes perfect aside from that; he helps me with everything, spends all his time with me, pretty much anything i could ask for in a relationship. But he makes me feel like a roomate and not a girlfriend. Ive told him this a million times but he just tells me that sex shouldnt be so important to me. I dont really enjoy having sex with him anyway, but the fact that he makes me feel unnatractive and unloved is the worst part. I know hes interested in sex because he watches porn all the time but he doesnt care if i send him sexy pictures. He wants to have a baby and get married in august when im done with school but i dont think i can handle doing that with him if he wont even try to help himself fix this huge problem.

I have been in a relationship for 6 years we used to have sex all the time and everywhere now we go 8months without it. I have tried to re-engage him but no luck. We plan to spend our lives togetjer bit I don't know anymore. He won't cuddle yet
he loves me and I know he is not cheating. We have lived together for 6 years also he is amazing but we have no sex life anymore for awhile I was ok with it but the closer we get to marriage the more concerned I am.

My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years. Neither of us have ever met anyone we connected with so well. We moved in together after only dating for 3 months and it has been nothing short of amazing. Only one issue... we never have sex. It's once every 3 months and that's only after 2 months of practically begging. I try not to bring it up or bother him about it, but it hurts me. It's been like this for over a year now. He always says he is tired, his tummy hurts, he's not in the mood. I've asked if it's me? Have I put on weight? Do I wear my pj's too much? I'm tempted to try "the naked man" from how I met your mother. I don't even need sex every week, but I want to feel wanted and beautiful. I'm not even that much of a sex driven person. I'm just afraid of falling into friends do with who is supposed to be the love of my life.

Omg I'm so thankful I found this. I'm having the exact same problem. Me and my boyfriend have been together 4 years and we have a 2 year old son. We haver had sex in over a year. Our sex life used to be amazing. I thought the stresses of raising a child were affecting our relationship but now I'm not too sure. I never imagined I would be in this situation. I never get a straight forward answer on why we aren't intimate or affectionate in any way. The most he gives is a rare hug. I just don't know what to do. I'm basically just waiting and hoping things will change. Maybe I'll get a makeover lol idk I'm only 24 and he's 23 I know he wants to have sex. Just not with me

Confused I feel unwanted depressed unmotivated cuz he says well maybe it's me cuz I'm getting old "yea right if that was the case you wouldn't masterbate in the shower for an hour" I'm mad and frustrated and I will tell him well it cuz I got so fat while I was pergo and he says no that's not it I love u all the same baby but nothing we have talked about but all he says is idk baby it me not you last time we made love was in January I was 4 months pergo and we didn't even finish but that was the last time it's almost been a year what do I do

I am feeling and currently in you situation. I know my boyfriend loves me but phyically not in our relationship. I am so confused and hurt. He bought me flowers, takes me out but the sex Might be once a week....maybe less. Sex is rushed. We used to have a great sex life but the 8 months it has declined, i am depressed and feel unwanted, we have talked about it and after talking about it affection is better for a few days but this morning i said i missed sex he responded as jesus christ. What is going on? I want to overlook physical love. But i am not understanding this is our only argument . Is it normal to feel unmotivated and depressed?

I've been with my boyfriend going in three years now and I watched our sex life disappear. I know he has a sex drive because he masturbatory to porn. When I try talking to him he tells me if I took him to a strip club or had a three some or now he tells me he prefers doing it himself. I try not to think about it but every night it hurts me more and more. I'm not fat or unattractive but I feel disgusting lately. I'm thinking of cheating because I just feel so sad all of the time. Other than the no sex everything is great. He gets so angry if I bring it up too. I dunt know how to handle this. I'm in a serious depression. I've lost 8 lbs in a well because I can't even eat.

Im so sick of this happening to me. Sex once every 2 months is not ok. I feel so unwanted. So alone so hurt. My fiance just says he doesnt know why hes not in the mood. Or he will say i always ask or beg for sex. Well when its always a no you ask often but that goes away i dont ask but ill drop hints. Ive barely made out with him in 2 years. My lips used to hurt from kissing him so much. Now its nothing. I dont want to give in when he does want sex id like to hold it from him n see what he feels but its been so long that when he is finally willing i dont have the strength to say no. I need to be loved. One day i was beeing all kissy huggy in a sweet way though and he told me i was being awkward..... that was so painful. I just dont get it. Makes me rethink this whole engaged thing.
