Question - (24 January 2011) 4 Answers - (Newest, 24 January 2011)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I have been going out with my bf for 2 years and recently he's just stopped being interested in sex. I got a bit upset not because we weren't having any but because it made me feel like he'd lost attraction for me. He explained he just goes through periods where he loses his libido and that he hasn't even been masturbating either. He says it's nothing to do with me. I want to believe him but I am having a hard time. What do you guys think?

Illithid agony auntI have low times where I just don't care about it either. How long has it been? After a while, sure it's a worry, but if it's just been a little bit, then that's normal. Stress, sleep habits, nutrition, random moods, something no good reason. Libido swings both high and low.

dirtball agony auntI think he's telling the truth too. He could be stressed or have other things killing his sex drive too.

I agree with Honeypie... he is telling the truth.

We all go through stages where sex is the last thing on our minds and there can many reasons for this. Work, stress, tiredness and also being in a long term relationship and getting in a rut. But it doesn't necessarily mean he has lost interest.

Why not have some you and him time... nice meal, soak in the bath together, light some candles, and just spend some quality time with each other... it doesn't have to end up with you having sex.....it is about getting intimate with each other in various other ways and having some quality time together.

Honeypie agony auntI think he is telling you the truth. Could be that he has some fluctuations in his testosterone levels.

Also I think throughout a relationship it's pretty normal that there are ups and downs in the amount of sex.
