I think sex is important in a "healthy" relationship. But I also think there is more to relationships than just sex. My opinion is that the boyfriend is not respecting you by putting you on a guilt trip because you have said no, esp when he wants sex every day. In fact, I think he is being selfish.. Although he says that is how he expresses his love for you, I find that a little hard to believe. I think he is satisfying his needs at your expense. Grant it, he is young and has a strong sex drive and that is normal. But it is not normal to "expect" you to have sex just because he wants it. You have to "want" it too..

I believe women who "always say yes" feeling it is their duty is doing harm to their emotional well being. And after time, the women's normal, healthy sex drive "could" be damaged because she may feel her body is being used and her needs have not been met. IMHO

I am not saying "his" sex drive is wrong. What I am saying it is wrong for him to expect sex on a daily basis, esp when you have told him your do not want sex every day. That you would like a "break" for a few days..

I still think it is very important you have a heart to heart talk with him. Get serious.. Be honest.. Explain your feelings. . Also let him know, if this is true, that when you are "in the mood" sex is great with him...... Communication is so very important. IMHO

Good luck.. I hope things works out for you.
