Lack of drive for intimacy?
(My partner and I have been together for 3 years. I really love him, and I am still very attracted to him.. however, lately I just have no sex drive.
It’s not that I want to do it with anyone else.. i just cant be bothered doing it at all. My partner is concerned that I am losing the connection with him, and thinks that its the beginning of the end.. but honesly my feelings havent changed– i am just not up for it.
I work 60 hours a week, and I find myself using that as the excuse to not spare some time for intimacy– but how do you get in the mood when the thought of having sex itself is a turn off?
Has anyone else ever felt like this? Any advice with what I can do?)
Answer :
The problem for a lot of guys is, sex is how we feel connected with our partners, even loved. When we go without it, we feel lost in the relationship. Part of that problem is, in our minds, we want to show you our affection and love through sex and we feel the women should want to do the same thing back. But it’s not how most women display that, especially when they are exhausted from work.
I’d suggest to you, and to my wife: make just a little more of an effort expressing your love. AND when you do have the energy for sex, make sure you are in the moment.. give him something to remember until next time you have the energy.
