We never planned having sex it always just came about so we never really talk about it much so I'd feel awkward asking why, any help? Reply to this Question Share |

If you want to know what she is thinking or feeling then the best person to ask is your girlfriend.

I also know how difficult it is for educated adults to deal with the responsibility of caring for an unplanned child.
I also know that you would have the easier side of the issue; because it would not be you who would have to carry a child in a body that isn't fully developed physically.
It is a difficult challenge for adults to raise a child, when two children aren't emotionally developed or mature enough to handle such a profound responsibility as a small life.
Your post is about why she stopped having sex with you. Do you care if she still likes you or not? Do you even like her? Or is it just about the sex?
Maybe that's why she stopped. She realized that's all you care about.

You're too young to be taking on such a responsibility. She would be a teenage mom. She could lose all her hopes and dreams and you'll just walk away like nothing ever happened. You won't have to carry a child inside of you for 9 months; or have to face her disappointed parents everyday. She will also have to make a decision to keep a baby or put it up for adoption, or something else.
You can't support yourself, let alone a 16 year-old mom and a baby. No pity for you young man.
You should be thinking about other ways of having fun with your girlfriend. She is obviously smarter than you. She realizes that sex isn't something kids your age should be messing around with; without protection (a condom) or being old enough to handle the consequences of a pregnancy.

Unfortunately you can’t be helped unless you try to get over that awkwardness because if you’re going to try and find out what’s going on there’s going to have to be a conversation between you both. Let’s look at what isn’t clear from this post: are you trying to initiate sex, or requesting sex and she’s saying no? Do you know that she doesn’t want to have sex, or could she be thinking that it’s you who’s not interested? Do you know how she found the experience of having sex when you did it? Do you both want to have sex with each other again? Could one of you think it happened too soon and you weren’t ready? (it was early on in your relationship and you’re both young).
When you talk, explain to her that you were thinking about the fact that you both haven’t had sex for a while, and you realised you’d never talked about it, and just ask her what are her feelings about sex now and how did she feel when it happened? Listen to what she says and contribute your own thoughts. See how it goes.
I wish you all the very best.
