Why Doesn't my boyfriend want to have sex with me anymore?

May 19, 2009 - 9:46am 41299 reads 257 comments

We've been dating for over a yer now but in the last few months our sex has drastically decreased at first started to go down from at least 1-2 times a day for at least 5 months and then it went down to 1-2 times a week and then to 1-2 times a month and now it's been a month and a half since we've had sex. I've read a few articles about this allready, but none seem to fit my problem exactly. I was worried for a while that it might be me that was the problem and but he told me it wasn't and i know he wouldn't lie to me. I've asked him about it but he says theres nothing wrong. I just don't know what to do anymore. He's only a year older than me and he's suppose to be in hes prime. Is there anything I can do? I Haven't pressured him or anything because I dont want him to do it just to shut me up. I want him to want to. and I'm just not satistied anymore and im not asking for everyday, at this point once or twice a week would be nice. A far as I know there's nothing he's stressed about at work or school, could it be a cobination of the 2? or something else going on that I don't know about? and please keep in mind that im am searching for help and advice and I don't want to hear find a new boyfriend. I love him and im not leaving him, even if it means were not going to have sex anymore. But it's frustration for the time being as I find it a tad odd that I want it more than he does. and I don't really want to talk to any of my friends abotu it because I live in a small town and this is personal and I don't need everyone talking about it. and the last thing I want him to feel is embarassed. I havn't told anyone of my friends but I'm in need of some advice. Any Ideas?

wow..I have been facing the same issue and it is hurting me 2....We've been together for about two years..at first it was all the time but now its like if i don't say anyhting he won't either...there has been a lot going on such as school and work...and that could be it..but in the back of my mind I believe that he is doing him already with someone else...I am not an unattractive female and there are plenty of guys who wouldn't mind..but i stay true b/c i love him....I read that a man needs 3 things out of a woman/relationship....loyalty, support, and sex.....so IDK...

WHY WOULD YOU STILL BE WITH HIM IF YOU ARE SURE?
