I am a woman in my early 20s who has been in a relationship with a young man in his early 20s. We have built a life together: got an apartment with pets and we constantly discuss marriage, children and future plans. I love him, and I want to be with him forever. He respects me, he cares, he listens, he makes me laugh, and he is attractive and great in bed. I have a crazy sex drive. I am almost always in the mood. He is not this way. Never really has been. We have sex 2-3 times a week. If it were up to me, it would be daily. We both work and go to school, and he is always too tired to have sex and it frustrates me and makes me feel unwanted and rejected. I crave sexual attention because it boosts my self esteem. I have BDD, and sex has been a short-term solution for it. I have a strong desire to have sex, and since he is not providing it, it is making me stray. I fantasize about being with new men that make me feel wanted and beautiful, something that my partner hasn't been doing so much of lately. I even fantasize about experimenting with women - which is all very new, I've never really had these feelings before. I crave intimacy and kissing and breathing somebody in. I am not going to cheat, but I still want to. I don't want to leave my boyfriend, and I have tried to talk to him and he says we have enough sex and I am just creating issues. I don't know what else to do because I am unsatisfied and I feel guilty for wanting other people.
