We ALWAYS use protection and throughout the whole month she keeps thinking she is pregnant!I tell her not to worry, but she refuses to listen and insists on these silly sex bans because she doesn't want to get pregnant.She refuses to go on the pill (i did ask her nicely) and i suggest we could use the condom as well, but no. Now when it gets further on in the month she gets stressed cos she thinks she's pregnant, and she eventually convinces me that she is! I need this vicious cycle to stop! any ideas?

There are many other forms of birth control that can put her mind at ease. You could also double up on the protection - use spermicide as well. Why don't the two of you take a trip to your doctor and talk about pregnancy, what sort of birth control choices you have. I would go ahead and make all the plans yourself (including dinner after) so that she can't argue you out of it.
It does sound, as Eyes suggested, that maybe she's just using this an excuse to get out of sex, but maybe she's just really paranoid and needs to know her options.

Maybe she is just using this excuse because she really isn't enjoying the sex all that much. Why doesn't she want to go on the pill? Using the pill and a condom she would be worryfree. Worrying is so exhausting I wonder what her real issue is?
