Q: Haven't Had Sex
asked by: womaninpain on July 16th, 2007

My fiance and I have been having problems for some time (since mid April) Plus in Mid May I thought I was pregnant. The last time we had sex was mid April and before that it was the end of March everyday for the last week of the month while we were away on vacation. That was quite unusual for us but wonderful because I would rather do it everyday. Anyway..so between our fighting constantly and then the thought of me being pregnant (I'm not...was 7 weeks late on my period but finally got it) We haven't had sex! Again, I would like to do it everyday if I could but he is really never that way. We don't live together, I am currently living with my parents and he has a small apartment. My parents are old fashioned and although we have a child together they don't believe that we should sleep in the same bed under their roof unless we are married. So..no chance of him sleeping over and us doing it unless they are away which happens every 5 months maybe. Then there is his place, but again I have a child so there are not a million chances for me to go over there without her and with her...well if she were sleeping it would have to be in the same room...

So...I am sexually frustrated...it has already been hard for us to find the time, and he is not the type to want sex all the time, he is fine with masturbating if we don't do it often..plus neither of us really wanted it from each other all of the time because we were having issues but now that we are getting along great I want it badly...I text messaged him at about 11pm saying "It's been a while...cold showers only do so much...I want you" Well..he was sleeping so that didn't work out but either way he didn't even respond to that message or even bring it up for that matter...how do I approach this so that I can stop being frustrated?!?!?! I can't take it anymore but I would never cheat on him either someone help me tackle this I am open but he is not and he is a little uncomforatable talking about it so I feel wierd just bringing it up out of nowhere.

In Pain Too
Hi,

I'm in pain too. my wife has no interest in sex. I finally am telling her that if we don't go to a therapist soon .. I'm basically going to pack up and leave. it is important that you tell your fiance that you have needs and you need to have them fulliflled..

maybe you need to discuss this with your fiance in a structured environment like with a therapist.

maybe you'll more sex out of this..

We had a long talk this afternoon at lunch...he told me that my appearance no matter what does not matter to him that he loves me and is attracted to me and wants me he's just not like that, and even less lately because we have had so many problems and he is tired and we have argued so much and our relationship itself turned him off...I understand where he is coming from with that. He said that the problems we had have turned him into an angry person and made him a way he does not want to be. So...we decided that we will calm it down a little with our problems and work hard for our child. We are going to stay together but we need to just step back, that part is a little confusing to me, I don't get that part but I do understand the rest of it all...

I think you need to move out of your parent's house, out from under their ridiculous rule. If you cannot financially do that, which I understand, then you may have to suck it up and accept that circumstances are such where you cannot consummate your relationship.

I also wonder why a male is not interested a sexual relationship despite fighting. I think there may be something going on. It is fishy to me.

At this point I can't move out for financial reasons. He has always been this way as long as I have known him he has been the type to pass up sex if he is angry because he loses interest in sex with me when he is angry with me. I honestly have been at that point at times but I have more of a drive than he does I suppose. For a month straight of the arguing the last thing on my mind was to have sex with him. I am hoping to be in a better financial position soon, it was not always like this, actually we were saving to buy a house together and had a good amount saved and between a bad car accident and unfortunate circumstances with work all that we saved ended up gone and we are now worse off than we were financially. My parents are paying for us to go on vacation next month and he and I will have some alone time then. I plan to further this conversation with him and let him know more. We had a night planned last weekend because my parents were supposed to go away but my mother got sick so that never happened...I am still waiting for that night I suppose he figures it will happen soon and he isn't anticipating it as much as me. I am not one to masturbate, it just doesn't do anything for me and maybe that is what makes it worse. He has stated to me that masturbating is something that he has no problem with doing when he feels the need. I can say that he never used to have porn and more recently I have found quite a bit of it in his apartment...so I am hoping that this will get resolved soon.

Sex
Dear womaninpain,
My wife and i have been together 11 years and recently we had fun trying to calculate how many times we have had sex in our relationship. The reason we did so was because the past year or so our physical love making has intensified. We had always had great sex, and frequenly, but this past year we have had sex everyday, and sometimes up to 4 times a day. I think the key is making each other feel wanted and desired. Pump each others ego up. I would text message my wife while at work and tell her to go shopping and purchase a new sexy dress and come visit me at lunch with no panties on. We would fool around in our car and get really excited. Often i would text her a fantasy I had for her. And then we made it happen. My point here is that good sex is hard work. Try initating some sexy talk, dress risque occassionally, making him feel sexy by complimenting him. Do spontaneous things. Have sex in a parking lot. Something like that. don't think about it, just do it! Maybe we can chat sometime. Keep your chin up.

I Am You .....
my virgo can not will not attempt sex if anything is stressing him he physically can't and I have seen him try for me it was awful to see him struggle just to please me that time ......I did not believe he had no choice at times till I seen him struggle so just maybe your guy just can't if there are things on his mind really ??????????while your waiting and in this circumstance read this book my daughter turned me on to shes in our boat ....THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES by Gary Chapman.........it could give you the edge .................so far it is working long distance ...believe it or not ......I am visiting my daughter a five week break from each other for him he already wants me home asap ...the hardest part of us for me is the unequal sex desire .....stress effects him ....but there are other issues but as for me I have never known that love has nothing to do with sex and sex is a gift that love makes even better ....hate this lesson but there is more to life than sex ......we are so very nearly meeting each other in the middle finding a middle road that satisfies me and he can live with ....
bottom line for my best guess in this ...............communication .....they can't fix it if we dont tell them its broken ........my best to you and yours
