He gets angry when I try to talk about our lack of intimacy

A male Australia age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I need advice on how to talk to my partner about his severely diminished interest in sex and physical intimacy. I've raised the issue with him before but I tend to get angry as it upsets me so much. I know this won't help. How can I talk to him about this without getting angry? Thanks.

YummyMummy agony auntYou need to control your anger. It is hard but you obviously NEED to chat about this with your partner.

My sex drive has dived since I fell pregnant and I hated my partner getting sarcastic about lack of sex and always felt awful when he got angry over it. We sat down and talked and things aren't so bad now.

Danielepew agony auntIn my opinion, the anger comes from insatisfaction, but, mostly, from the fact that the issue is not being dealt with. I don't think there would be a problem if you two were able to talk about things. This is the real problem.

I suggest you count, to ten or one thousand, as you may see it fit, and try to get your partner to really talk. Let him know that this is an issue that can only get worse if left unattended.

Good luck.
