My boyfriend and I have been dating for
seven or eight months now. The
relationship seems to be going along
really well. It has been quite intense.
Very romantic and I have to say very
fulfilling. We spend the night together
every night. (the sex life has been
great.)
however this week he has been uninterested
in sex. Though, he's still very cuddly
and affectionate, he seems to have lost
his sex drive. This has been the case
for a bit over a week now. He is able to
articulate that it isn't me. He has
said that he doens't know what the problem
is, but goes on to explain that he is
under a great deal of stress at the moment
(which is certainly true) and that in the
past he has experinced a loss of interest
when he's been under significant
pressures.
He also offers that his loss of interest
is not focused on me, but rather that he's
not experincing any sexual fantasy or
desire at all.
Despite his reassurances i'm still very
uneasy with this development. Our sex
life had been quite active, and though i'm
reasonably content to wait this "dry
spell" out (i'm crazy about him.). I'm
concerned that it might be indicative of
larger emerging problems within our
relationship. (i'm also concerned that
I may just be reading too much into it.
Lol.)
