Ever since I can remember I have struggled to maintain an 'acceptable' sex drive. When in a new relationship it seemed easier... However, I've now been in a relationship for 6 years and for the most part I have struggled with sex. My partner now admits that it is a big problem. I want to get better but I can't seem to move past the feeling of disgust when I think about it. I would be doing it because I feel like I have to... Rather than through any sexual desire. This in turn makes me feel worthless because I should be able to satisfy my partner.
It's not that I'm not attracted to him, I just can't imagine wanting sex with anybody... I feel like this could also be a contributing factor to the rapidly increasing feelings of anxiety and misery... Which in turn is probably quashing my sex drive even more! I feel so abnormal and useless... Really not sure where I go from here...

There could be causes for your low sex drive like depression or physical issues. Have you checked those out with a doctor.
It could be that you just have a normal low sex drive. Some people are asexual and don't have any sex drive at all. If you have little or no sex drive this does not necessarily mean you are abnormal.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
