So, it's been about two months since my boyfriend and I last had sex. We've been through other periods like this before, but there really seems to be no improvement. His business is in big trouble, and I'm sure he's incredibly anxious and stressed out. However, the stress has been around for the better part of the last two years. He seems completely uninterested in me sexually and, even though we cuddle and he's affectionate, it's never sexual in nature. When these issues first arose, I used to try to talk to him about it. I would try to initiate and try to be flattering or flirtatious...but, now, almost two years later, I've pretty much given up. I don't even know how interested in sex I am any more! I'm not interested in having sex with anyone else, mind you. But, I feel totally turned off...like it just doesn't work any more. This is just not normal...even for someone who is stressed out and anxious. The last time he tried to initiate sex, it was after a big fight (I'd just found out he'd been lying to me about some stuff)...and, this seems to be somewhat of a pattern....he's the most interested when I'm the least interested. I'm not a big one for make up sex...I feel sexiest when we're getting along..not when we're fighting. I feel as if I should initiate because having sex this infrequently is not really "normal," but I don't know that I really even want to have sex. I love him but feel kind of alone. There have been other issues in the relationship and I'm sure these issues make neither one of us feel particularly sexy....that being said, I know other couples with issues and their sex lives seem to be on track...I still care about this...but I'm starting to care less and less...and that has me worried.
