Not having enough sex in a relationship could sound like a rather trivial issue, to be laughed off in front of others. But in truth, a shortage of sex threatens relationships like almost nothing else - and deserves thought and attention.

It's not just about the lack of sex itself, the toll it takes when you feel rejected by the one closest to you cuts deep and makes you feel unwanted and unattractive. You feel dirty or uncaring for wanting it and it really wears you down.

Like the rest here in this thread, I relate to this comment. This is me at the moment. 4 years ago me and my girlfriend would have amazing sex everyday. In turn that gave me the confidence I needed for my work and my social interactions. As years go by after the birth of our daughter, things changed. At first I understood that she was too tired of taking care of our child. Ever since then sex started to becoming less frequent. I'm lucky that we can do it a time in a month and I have gone 3 months of no sex because of the same old excuse. That translated to me having almost no self confidence now. Thoughts of having an affair was on my head but sad part is I'm unattractive so that would be near impossible. Uh well sucks to be me I guess.

Karlo Palencia I’ve heard from friends of mine that have given birth that it happens to women sometimes after they have a baby. It’s a hormonal imbalance where they go through a weird depression stage and their libido drops hella and they don’t feel the same. You should try to communicate with your woman and show her that you feel attracted

1 of the most difficult things is to tell the person you love that you are feeling sexually neglected, lonely, and unwanted by them. It's a pressure that can feel so overwhelming and painful. Especially if after openly sharing it with them, they reject that or nothing changes.

Same here, but in opposite for me. I’m a female, and I have been rejected so many times and never been liked back, I have given up hope for anything. Even if i were to be in a relationship with someone, I don’t think i’d ever feel comfortable with sex. Jokes, sure. Hugs and cuddling is perfectly fine- i just feel broken for not wanting sex ever. I guess what i mean is that we are both different sides of the same coin. I hope your troubles are solved and you and your partner can work things out in a way that both of you are happy.

Samurai what this means is, when there’s enough sex in a relationship, then sex is not a problem. This allows couples to focus on other things. financial situations , traveling , spending time together, etc.. On the other hand, when there is not enough sex , one partner is not happy. That usually leads to both partners being unhappy. In that instance sex is 90%. Because it’s a big problem within the relationship.

That's because people know that there will be judgement or reactions that will be detrimental to the relationship so better avoid the issue althogether until it becomes unbearable.

No, it's not. I've been in a sexless (as in NONE) relationship for over ten years. It's a miserable existence to feel lonely and undesired in your own house. Now that my youngest son has graduated, I, at 57yo, am leaving. I've never cheated, never would, but see this as my best option to (finally) have my needs met. Even if I never find another partner, at least I won't have the reminder of a person I COULD be having "relations" with around all the time.

@@1besieged Observation: Far more frequently, the man cheats because the wife turned the bedroom into a freezer. Not in all cases, of course, there are always exceptions. However, most women *know* if they're getting involved with a man who is a womanizer, or is a bad boy, or is unreliable. If they choose to stay involved in such a relationship, then wind up getting cheated on, they are partially if not wholly to blame for being delusional. Only if a man makes a legitimate commitment *then* breaks it without some reasonable cause, is she pretty much off the hook. Of course, females are averse to responsibility, _that's why it's always his fault_ even if she was an abusive harpy who maliciously withdrew sex and affection in order to get him to do what she wanted. She's the victim....right? Things are not as straightforward as most meatbags often wish to portray them to be. However, the general thrust of this video is correct. Honest communication solves virtually ALL of these problems.

I honestly thought I was the issue for wanting sex and it was super scummy for me to want to break it off because of the lack of sex. I kept telling myself I'd be a horrible person to break up over such a trivial thing and it absolutely fuck me up mentally. In the end we broke up and I left feeling ashamed and as if I was the toxic gross partner. Thank you for helping me come to terms with this.

I'm in the same situation now. It's been going on for months if not a year. There were conversations, even gynecological examinations to make sure everything was okay. Sometimes I thought she was cheating on me, but that's off. It wasn't boring either because I'm inventive and have a slightly higher libido. But in her opinion, twice a month is cool and you have to earn good sex. Ultimately, I don't think I have anything to count on changes and it's time to get out of here. Everything would be fine just fucking sex! Rather, its absence. I'm 30 and she's younger, it's a misunderstanding.

My ex always said the same, but at the end, I felt so much pression, trying to figure out when/what/how many times he wanted, that was just too much. It wasn't like I didn't like him or anything, but at some point, he put his self esteem in my hands, and was something that I couldn't work it out. My point is that sometimes, your partner don't know what would be the ideal for you. And in my case, I felt like he was actively making the moments more complicated to put me in a more vulnerable position, and of course, it happens the exactly opposite, I felt exposed, hurt and with all responsability over our relationship and himself

I get you, in the sense of wanting your partner to also feel the desire, but for me for example, I'm a guy, so usually women dont come at me. Is a little frustrating. Best scenario, every time I come at her, she's willing. But gotta admit it would be great if she came at me once every ten times. Feeling wanted really helps to fuel things up.

I am one of those men that do not like having sex all that much. I always knew this hurts my partner, but damn, this video really strikes it down to my very core. The worst part is - I love my wife, I find her attractive, I am willing to go down on her (tongue-game, you know) if she is in the mood, no problem, but I have a deep trauma. Back when I was a kid doing stupid stuff I got injured in my crotch, back than I thought that it was nothing serious, yeah I peed with blood but only once so I quickly forgot about it. But as I got older and started getting in a relationship the signs began to show. Not gonna go down on specifics as it is very hard to type this comment as it is, but I either finish very quickly because of the feeling of the injury, or, if I try to go in a normal pace - pain starts to flow. It’s not a sharp one but it is annoying enough that my libido drops and I can’t continue. The thing that wretches me the most is seeing the disappointment on her face, so it’s a constant battle between making it quick and pleasant for me or painful and with a lack of finish. Every time we try to talk about it I get panic attacks and start trembling. It’s really embarrassing for a grown ass man but it is what it is. And psychology doesn’t help either, if I try to think too much about it I also lose the mood. Never would I have thought that this will become such a problem. I visited a doctor, he told me that the operation is necessary the recovery time will be about 2 painful months. I am currently mustering up the courage to undergo it, but I’m very afraid. Sorry, random stranger, I never told anyone about it and it’s eating me up from the inside. I hope I can get an operation before it gets worse

I suggest talking to your partner about your feelings and experiences with your injury. Learning to be comfortable with uncomfortable feelings will always help you in the long run and make you feel more confident in your relationship. Helps your partner as well so she doesn’t feel like she’s done something wrong to turn you off. Communication is key. You sound like a great guy, have a lovely day! ❤

I’ll just jerk it, stick to my hobbies and friends and let this run it’s course. It’s hard as a guy since my hormones attack my brain so aggressively but I’ll have to stand strong on this I guess.

Sex is very important in a marriage. It releases oxytocin and serotonin. It cures headaches, lowers blood pressure, helps anxiety, burns calories and helps with your overall mood. My husband works 60-80hrs a week and is always too tired to.. He works, comes into the house, eats and passes out in his recliner. Sometimes he falls asleep in the middle of eating. He needs help at work but no one around here is qualified enough or wants to get paid but not work. I used to get mad at him but after these last 13 years, I'm over it. It's not always the woman, it can be the husband. But when your husband breaks his back to provide for his family and pays all the bills, you really just have to have some patience and understanding. I still look forward to the day he can find another shop helper and goes back to working 40 hrs a week

Just as a supportive comment for the people going through this: I'm currently in a 3 year relationship with a person who went through sexual traumas. We took months to start having sex and she took way longer to be able to actively pleasure me (masturbation,oral etc). To this day, I still have to be patient with her. It's weird to think that there are girls with whom I slept once that were more active with me then she ever was. Still, it only got better, and I never met someone as perfect for me as she is. I want to spend the rest of my life with her, and these sexual problems feel so small compared to this sentiment. What made our sexual relationship constantly improve: comunication and patience. I always tried to make myself clear when I felt undesired by her lack of iniciative (not constantly though, just enough to make sure she knew what was going on in my head) and try being patient. If you really love the person and you feel that they love you back, and it's worth it, have patience.

I have always been really patient cause i love her beyond any limits and i thought we had normalised it and reached a checkpoint but everything starts to fall back again to zero its like i have to from zero again like i am some stranger to her and not the closest person she knows. It eats me out from the inside oh godddd everyday is a torture and as the torture continues i have become so grumpy. And it makes me feel like i am some problem to have high libido and it hurts me so much😔 and i end up talking too much about it still she doesn't take any initiative and i am hurting someone just get me out of this phase please just make her want me

​@@alanajimon6767 that sucks, I hope it gets better. Many times I also felt really bad with myself about this. My opinion: Don't overcompensate on porn, because its worst. I did that sometimes and now I feel it drove me me further away from my real sexual life/vision. Try to work on other points of your relationship. Spend time together, do new things together, maintain your friendship and talk about each other problems (not only sex). Sometimes this can bring sexual desire in a more organic way. I felt the way you said many times (like we've didnt improve at all) but now I realize that is because she ALWAYS will have those scars and sometimes she will be more introspective/defensive and will not be as inclined towards sex. Also, in general, she is simply not a person with a high sexual drive because of all that happened to her. I, in the other hand, have masturbated a lot and had way more sex than her throughout my life, so I'm more inclined to sex. Sometimes I miss more sexual relationships that I had in the past, but most times I'm pretty contempt with a relwtionship that is not as much focused on that because of the other things that I like about her.

Thank you sooo muchhh for making this video and to anyone who's shared their personal stories & experiences on here. All the points shared in the video helped validate how I've been feeling and what I've been struggling with, that I'm not the crazy one, I'm not being extra or ridiculous here; it's backed by science, statistics, psychology, and various research & studies. IT IS A REAL PROBLEM and is indeed far more damaging and adversely affects a relationship in a many more ways than one may think at first. I'm bawling my eyes out reading you guys' comments, I really thought I was the only one dealing with such an issue but it also hurts me to know that there are others out there experiencing a similar problem because I know so well the indescribable pain, torment, and sadness it causes us. I mean it makes us go through a whole roller coaster of emotions, none of which feels good either, just fills us up with so much doubt, hate, insecurity, demotivation, hopelessness, loneliness, unhappiness, etc. It's hard to even share or admit such problems to anyone without fear of how they'll respond. Of the few people I've confided this problem to, they either don't take me seriously, think I'm exaggerating, or making shit up; they'll either dismiss, undermine, or completely fail to really understand my problems because I guess they just won't fcking get it unless they truly experience it for themselves. It makes me regret even sharing my personal issues with them because they didn't respond in the ways I needed them to.. As for him, I've tried to talk with him multiple times before but there were never any positive changes. It leaves me so hurt, dejected, frustrated, upset, and confused. I think a relationship is like a flower or plant, if you don't take care of it and give it what it needs, it'll just wither and die.. Our relationship feels like this, it's got no more love, no affection, no life, it's just dead, we're just co-existing in the same space. I tell him it legit feels more like we're brothers & sisters than husbands & wives. This problem has been going on for insanelyyy longggg and it's really been killing me physically, mentally, and emotionally 😫😫😖😖😞😞😭😭😔😔💔💔

Dear comment section, Some of you are dating asexual people. You aren’t obligated to keep dating that person, in many cases, you should break up. you aren’t a monster for wanting physical intimacy, but you can’t force them to give it to you, because then you would be a monster. Neither of you are “the problem,” you are just incompatible. Please move on and don’t “fix” us. We are not broken.

My partner used to deny me sex often and we would have it at max twice a month. I felt so ugly and unlovable and ultimately the relationship ended after I found him on multiple dating sites (he actually broke up with me two days after I confronted him about it.) He would make me feel so silly for asking for it and acting like it wasn’t something that should be a dealbreaker cause it was “just sex” and that I would be stupid to leave a relationship for that reason. I wish I left him sooner or at least cheated on him.

It's important to also address underlying issues that may be at play. For example the partner denying sex may be dealing with sexual trauma that has rendered them unable to engage in a way that feels safe. This is often not talked about in videos about sexual lack in relationships; and I think it's unfortunate.

When you’re single and you get rejected, it’s not so bad because you can try to hit on a multitude of different people next time you’re starved for romance. When you’re in a relationship and your partner rejects you, it hurts even more because they’re your only option. So, next time you want romance, there is the lingering pain and resentment over the previous rejection.

I’ve been on the opposite end of this though. It seemed like my partner saw me as a machine that’s meant to just pump out sexual favors. He would never help with anything. He wouldn’t really talk to me about anything deeper than how “sexy” I am, and how much I turned him on. I felt like an unpaid pros****te. It feels disgusting being objectified in your own home. And it’s horrible when your own partner feels like an unfulfilling one night stand. And it’s even worse when the person on the receiving end of this treatment is vilified as the evil bad guy who’s “WiThHoLdiNg” sex. If it makes no difference to you where you put your genitals, why not just leave and go live out your little fantasies someplace else?

The reverse is also true. When you are sex starved and have been rejected many time, it became hard to engage in romantic activities.

No one is owed sex, no one is owed romance. It's a balancing act between give and take.

If anyone is pressuring anyone in an adult intimate relationship, there is a bigger problem. There's no need to be sarcastic. I know a lot of things, I'm quite grown up. If you're an adult and you got into an intimate partnership with an adult there would have been a reasonable expectation of intimacy. If I join a band I'm going to be expected to play guitar. It's not "pressure". If you don't want to play guitar don't join a band hon. And then shame the band when you refuse to play your guitar.

they do talk about it and how both people should communicate what they want from sex and hopefully reach a compromise. they even mention how people are always slightly sexual incompatible and that's why communication is important. they don't say having less sex than 4x/month is bad or that it's a sign of a sexless relationship. it's simply a statistic for divorced couples (also important to notice those are averages). they mention that sex-starved relationships are relationships where at least one party is not getting nearly enough intimacy as they need and that varies from person to person. a couple where one has high libido and the other low libido can be challenging. if a compromise is not reached, at least one party is always going to feel unsatisfied. it's a team effort. if both don't make the effort, then there's a significant incompatibility which will likely doom the relationship.

Exactly my thoughts, this video made me feel worse about myself because I'm taking oral contraception for medical reasons and it makes my libido nonexistent. In a state like this having sex with your partner is nothing more than a chore that you need to do so they're happy. But that just leads to more trauma that will make it even more difficult in the future to deal with sex problems. And everybody's talking how shitty it feels not to get sex/feel unwanted by your partner, what about how difficult it is to hear that your partner feels unloved because of this one thing even though I would give my life for them? Should I just force myself to have sex and lose respect for my body?

Kathy McGirt that’s a great point. In the beginning of my relationship with my boyfriend he had a low sex drive from depression. We got him medical help, now his sex drive is up. But as life situations have gotten tougher, now I’m in depression and anxiety and need help, as well as have a low sex drive. Love and sex, is great. But understanding how to help someone underneath it all, to become healthier in general is more important

I always thought women reject sex more so being a woman I was like this isnt going to be a issue with me I love sex and then I got into relationships and the men didn't have a high sex drive like me and therefore I would get bored and just distance myself cuz I didn't feel like I was their partner I felt like I was just a friend eventually it got to the point where I just wanted to end things all together cuz I felt being with them was not only wasting my time but theirs too it was like why bother stay in a relationship where you don't feel comfortable or confident with that person so the only way to solve the problem was to just end things cuz they didn't understand the importance of how I felt they just ignored it

I m also such a victim with high sex desire but I m sitting in the part of the world were sex is a taboo but women showcase themselves as sexy. My life partner doesn't have much sex drive n I can handle two. Atleast if I would get one with great sex drive that would suffice.

@@zking007_8 maybe we're not supposed to be the same? I'm a woman with the relatable issue as the above... My husband wants the stars, moon, and earth to align before he's in the mood... 10 years of marriage, going on 11, and man the longing and loneliness during this has been heavy... But maybe my desires and his are to be compromised in such a way that we both get what we want. Instead of all day everyday, going to 1 time every 6 months, maybe to mesh, we need to compromise? Truth is, if 2 people were in the same relationship both having high drives, how much outside productivity would occur? Or, 2 people in a relationship with low drive? How would they ever feel close? Maybe our differences isn't a bad thing when the light of truth shines upon them, and we work something out just because we want to see the other person civil and happy?

It’s more about dialogue, closeness and sincerity than about sex. I’ve had periods of weeks without sex with my wife, not because we didn’t desire each other but because we were so exhausted by the daily routine that we just didn’t have the energy. We talked about it, understood that it was a phase and did everything we could to get back to our normal sex life and it worked. Had we not talked about it each of us could have gotten the wrong impression that there was no desire, love, or even that there was cheating involved.

I've struggled with trivializing this problem for a long time, as the beginning of this video states I felt like it was a first world problem and I don't have any right to complain. But It really affects me emotionally. It's hard to talk about with my partner, impossible to talk about with anyone else. When I've opened up to friends about this problem in the past I get dismissed because my friends do not have this problem. I've turned to hurting and shaming myself assuming I am the problem. It's good to remember it's a two way street.

I never said its weird to have sex or that its anything wrong with it. However, it seems that when a person doesn't want to have sex, cut back on the frequency, experience libdo changes they are the villain. I think society places SEX above the relationship as a whole. So when the sex stops the relationship should fall apart? Why? what about the other aspects of the person?

I Can only speak for myself and say was usually because I was so tired with a new baby and back at work full time. My son’s father did not do much to help around at home and after a while you start to resent doing all of the work but then they expect you to turn it on because they feel like it, and then get nasty if it’s not every 2nd day, and I mean nasty. A female’s biggest sex organ is between her ears, and if she’s not getting respected and valued, I can tell you now that that is the biggest turn off. You do NOT want to have sex with someone who treats you like crap. In my case, I got so sick and tired of being like a single mother while being in a relationship so decided that I would just rather do it all alone. So I said what I had to say and made him leave. Such a lovely relief, it was the best feeling and I was so happy. I didn’t mind at all doing everything for my son, as I had been doing it all anyway but at least I didn’t have that lazy selfish narcissist to live with anymore. Oh but the stalking continued for 18months. And he played the victim, and still does 31 yrs later. Also has not bothered with his only child for 7years. Such a cretin!

I asked if there is anything for improvement. These aren't working. So I'm out. I'm ending the relationship. It's not fair that sex is so important that if I have with someone else, it's cheating and serious enough to terminate the relationship but not important enough to make me go without it. I refuse to go as low as cheating, but I'm not spending years of wasting my life trying to fix something that can't be fixed.

Reading through this comment section made me feel understood and gave me back hope. My last relationship ended a few days ago, and probably the main reason was the lack of sex. We love each other immensely, we were caring, we talked and actively listen to each other, but she always had serious difficulties with sex, and I was no exception. We talked a lot about it, decided to make some moves but she didn't want to take the commitment for the moves to take any relevant effect. It felt that every agreement only increased her comfort zone around not having sex. The worst thing was that one of the ideas we tried was that she, and only she, would try to initiate sex. But she didn't try to increase her libido in any way, nor solve her traumas that blocked the idea of sex being something natural. I always supported her self-steem, and I truly truly loved her body. Seeing her was sometimes well beyond enough for to turn me on. But she just used this agreement to increase her comfort zone so she didn't have to face her traumas or make an effort, and when I tried to look for sex back again she though of me as an invasive person. I felt, and still feel, like shit because of everything that came from it. The thoughs of not being enough, than even when "you're the best boyfriend ever" you're missing something. I have now to remove myself from under the dumpster of toxic thoughs I told myself about this whole situation. I know they are not true, but when you love someone and truly want to make things work with her you start to justify why things are not working in order to reduce your own expectations, and you start to think less and less about yourself to do that. My selfsteem is garbage now and, as I said at the start, this video and this comment section made me feel understood, for I was still thinking I did something wrong.

I have similar feelings. My last partner was almost not interested in sex with me, in 2 years there were about 7 times. At the beginning of the relationship, he warned about his trauma, assumed that he was asexual, said that his past girlfriend blamed him a lot because of this. Therefore, I tried to be the most sensitive and gentle person, never to ask for anything. He didn't even mind me having sex with others, but it broke my heart. I had problems with body acceptance and self-confidence before and after this relationship it got even worse. Of course, I tried to think that the problem was not with me, he was just such a person, but the thought that I could not be attractive and desirable did not give me rest at all. Now I have a husband, we have a great relationship, but my stiffness and shyness has not gone away, which makes it difficult to enjoy sex. It's hard for me to directly say this to my partner, but after reading the comments, I think I'll try to talk.

Sex is very important, but I can't quite put my finger on why after 15 years I still desire my husband. I have to say, it's something much deeper then simply spicing things up. I feel so loved and adored and in turn I try to do the same for him too. We make time for each other everyday just to talk, laugh, and check-in. We know what's going on in each other's lives, emotionally, at work, and with any other family or relationship conflicts. It feels fun, and when we disagree, we disagree and try to work it out. We never go to bed upset at each other and we don't hold grudges. I have a feeling something like that can break marriages. I'm not trying to toot how wonderful my marriage is. There was a period there years ago when I was in college, that I took a break from the relationship. We got back together with a little more maturity. All I can say is that there is no denying when you meet someone that's really great for you and you for them. Laughter comes easily and it feels like you can get through anything together. And when the years pass by, your spouse is not just your spouse anymore. They become somebody who embodies all the memories you've had together!

Rafael Paz, sounds like your partner got triggered and did not possess the tools to deal with things so she fled. Think about her overall attachment style in the patterns from her past. Your attachment style is formed in childhood. She has, like 50 % of the population, an insecure attachment style and this is what she does when things get bumpy in a relationship. Not good. There are some great videos on KZfaq explaining the styles: avoidant/dismissive, fearful avoidant or disorganized, anxious/pleaser and secure. Usually avoidant and anxious styles pair up. You can become an earned secure if you have a more insecure style and have much better relationships with good, clear communication. Check it out and have a great day!

Cindy Pope, thks for your reply! Yes, I'm a student and I also have to support myself and pay my studies and for that I usually work during the week from 8 am to 11pm. So, the weekends I spent with her. Last year she decided to go for holidays in europe for 2 months with her mother. Then, a week before her departure for holidays, she came over my place and we spent the night together, but we had no sex, even though I really wanted as she would stay away for 2 months and our last sex was 2 weeks before that night. The following week I had 4 test at my uni and I didn't study for those tests because I was with her that weekend, so I got really angry because I felt like we were more like friends than partners. We were together for just 5 months and I didn't understand why we were having sex just twice a month. So, the following weekend she was expecting to see me on Saturday and Sunday(Sunday evening she was leaving for holiday), but I told her I would see her just on Sunday as Saturday I had to study. She got really pissed off and broke up with me by text. I called her after, but she said she was really tired of seeing me just on weekends, she said she didn't need a "mate" for weekends, she need a boyfriend. Started to compared me with her brother, saying that her brother works everyday and after finishing his work he goes see her girlfriend etc... Started saying she was too young (26 years old) and she wanted to enjoy life etc... Then, in the end she said that for now it was over, but if I wanted I could send her text when she was on holidays and then when she returned from holidays she said "We will see". I said to her, NO, I won't text you, if it's over it's over. She got even more angry and blocked me on Facebook and we haven't spoke anymore. It's been 6 months . In the beginning I was ok with the break up, but after few weeks I started thinking too much about her and started feeling really sad for the end of the relationship. We shared so many similarities and we were always happy together, laughing, making jokes, making plans for the future etc... She said she liked me so much and I was the first of her boyfriends to meet her family. We used to say to each other how blessed we were for meeting one another and I always treated her with respect, never cheated on her and no lies, but I got shocked after she saying all those sweet thing to me she just decided to broke up for silly stuff. A month later was her birthday and I sent her a happy birthday text, she reply back thanking me for the text, then, I tried to get close to her and sent her another text, but she never return the text, this was 5 months ago. So, that's my story haha. When I was with her I felt like she was the woman of my life, I really thought we would marry, but...

I thought it was a weird phenomenon until I found endless forums where women were dealing with sexless partners. It's heartbreaking. We get tired of hearing it's a lack of communication or a health problem when clearly it isn't always the case. Sometimes men just don't like sex but won't say it because of the stereotype that no man would refuse sex. . *Edit: I'm stunned by some of the comments who just keep backing up the stereotype of 'if he refuses sex, he's cheating or gay'. It seems we've a long road ahead in convincing some folk that there are many, many men who live outside of the stereotype. Sad for everyone involved.

I know this video was meant to help people but I feel that 95% of the things said are just about the point of view of the person that wants to have sex and it says almost nothing about the person who clearly needs help, it's almost insulting that they reduce their problem to "i would have more sex if you listened to me more" when there could be an insecurity, they may feel too pushed, they may be discovering their sexuality and be ace (which is hard to find out when your partner isn't), or it could be even a trauma (and yes, people with traumas can date and love too and they deserve it jusr like everyone else)

The cheater has a huge moral failure in him/her and him/her trying to solve that problem with this « « « « solution » » » » is just proof of huge disabilities in managing difficult times in a relationship.

I did become irritated, but to say the rejected partner acts like a monster is a bit of a stretch. It ended my relationship. After many conversations things still didn't improve and I wasn't able to start initiating again. Eventually I lost attraction. I decided our drives are simply incompatible. I started to focus on everything wrong with the relationship. There seemed no way to fix things.

I feel so sad for people in relationships these days, wanting so much and remaining unfulfilled... I have chosen to remain single as I realize that is the state I am happiest in, pains my heart to see people willing to put up with things that seem almost abusive to me just so they dont have to be alone. Singleness doesnt mean loneliness it is a gift too. If you use it wisely. If you find that you need someone, BE PRESENT in the relationship dont just coast along. Anything worth having takes active effort. Specially when it pertains to matters of the heart.

It's really hard in relationships because what drives men and womens sex drives are completely different. For women its usually building a connection outside the bedroom, doing things together and feeling connected emotionally. When men dont want to spend time with their wife/girlfriend, the woman usually is less inclined to want to have sex. When the woman doesnt want to have sex, the man doesnt want to go do little date things together. Both couples have to put in the effort and be concious of the other persons need for intamacy. Its so easy to get lazy and not go on little dates, or to skip sex for days on end. Men have to keep courting their partner continuously throughtout the relationship, and women need to be receptive to their partners need for regular sex. Also, both parties have to be honest with each other, faithful, and kind from the start. I think we also need to build up habbits and behaviors from the start that are more realistic to what we are capable of long term, rather than doing everything at the beginning, getting burnt out, and then stopping those activities. Communication is important, but listening to and understanding your partners needs are just as essential. If your partner has a need that you find stupid, you need to be receptive to it anyway.

Really interesting that this video only talks about the absence of sex. What about the absence of GOOD sex? In every relationship I've had, there were multiple experiences that ended with me feeling used, or gross/unattractive, or generally uncared for. A woman can only ask to be touched so many times before she feels the shame of her partner's disgust with having to do so. I could only listen to _sigh_ *fine* so many times before I couldn't bring myself to ask anymore. Then men wonder why the sex slowly stops... I developed a very intense desire for another man at the end of my last relationship, didn't cheat though, despite wanting to. The reasoning this video presents fits mine exactly, but I got the added pleasure of being used as a human fleshlight, discarded and ignored after he got what he wanted. Then made out to be a manipulative bitch when I started avoiding sex. I don't even want to try to find a relationship anymore. I cannot do that again.

Almost never when I initiate. Almost always when she does. Translation: the lower drive partner dictates frequency. And she may rationally understand there’s a problem, but not see it as one that needs an immediate solution. Since it then has a lower priority than, say, dinner dishes, dirty laundry or some other mundane household task, that becomes how the act is viewed: a chore, and one which may be delayed indefinitely.

its not about sex. its about communication. if you want something out of a relationship, you discuss it and decide on how you go about it. if your partner cant provide what you want you discuss that and talk about how you’re going to make it work. this isnt just about sex, it can be about many things, but because the way we live puts such an emphasis on sex that when theres problems in a relationship and one of them involves sex, thats what gets the focus. and while there will be situations when the problem is related to sex, theres likely other problems too.

I'm in my fourties and I've got the feeling that I'm living with a dead man.

This video doesn't talk about those who are emotionally unavailable and therefore have never felt an emotional connection during sex. To those people sex gets boring and they don't care as they are uncaring in general. They prefer to watch porn as they have to make no effort, also the porn often gets more and more extreme as normal stuff gets boring to them, or maybe they cheat. They need that extreme excitement to get off as the emotional connection is lacking. You'll know if that's the case

My marriage hit a point several years back, where u realized that any advance I made was rejected. No matter the factors or effort I put in, I was declined. I tried everything I could think of. I worked during the day then came home and cleaned up the house. I'd take care of most of the responsibility of our son as well. I tried date nights and sending her on getaways with her friends to lift her mood. None of it helped. Hours of conversation on the subject, to tears at some points, still no dice. Eventually I accepted defeat. I quit asking for sex, instead I wait my 10-14 days for her to offer me a quickie (never more than that). In the last 6 months or so she has started complaining that I never express sexual interest in her anymore. Now I just kinda feel like it's a game or some kind of power play... I won't walk out on the mother of my son, and I have no desire to hurt her, so I can't have an affair... Feels like I'm damned no matter what.

A Relationship without sex, sign me up. (Asexual here) Sex nowadays has been come to lose, it gets thrown around everywhere thats why people are still shamed for being virgins. It has lost it value and specialty. I feel like people need to value it more for its intimacy and purpose (baby making) and if they do it actually brings a higher value and connection to a Relationship. Not saying everyone throws it around to lose and that it has lost value for everyone but as somebody who feels no pleasure with sex and doesnt feel like doing it and therefore sees sex more as a „duty“ I am more aware of it like you are aware of things you dislike more then things you like. I only go to my Favorite restaurant like 4-5 times a year. Why? Because the more I go, the less special it becomes. If I would go weekly I might even get sick of it even so I love it. And this is how it works for soooo many things. Sex included. My friend and his wife tried to make a baby. So they had sex everytime the time was right. My friend said „never thought I could get sick of sex“. Thankfully the baby is on its way now. Have less Sex, focus on its intimacy and make it special again and I think it will improve a lot of relationships nowadays.

Every relationship problem that isn't inherently abusive boils down to lack of communication and what society expects of us as men and women plays a massive role. People are just too prideful to talk about anything. Especially men, we are ridiculously prideful and basically taught to show little emotion and take everything on the chin. Tbh social media has been great in a lot of ways and an absolute plague in a lot of ways.
