Its been almost a year since i had sex with my boyfriend. We used to have sex all the time in the beginning of our relationship, now it seems like our sex life went down the drain, at least for me. He begs me to do it with him or give him something on the side (bj's) but i'm just never in the mood with him anymore. He tries his heart out to try to get me in to have sex but i just can't. I'm not seeing anyone else nor have i have plans to do so. I love him very much and i never cheated on him. Anyone know why?

No, it's not normal.

While there is a chemical outburst in the beginning of the relationship that makes you behave like rabbits, which eventually ebbs away, you should still have a regular sex drive.

It seems your libido has been put into a casket and thrown into a hole in the cellar.
I assume you also never masturbate?(that is, you are not in the mood at all, and not just not in the mood with him?)

You should go and see your doctor about this. While a low libido may be normal, the total absence of any kind of libido is kind of unnormal for young females-

As for your boyfriend, unlike us, they have physical needs. That is, that stuff NEEDS to get out, one way or the other. If no sex or masturbation, nightly discharge. Their hormon levels increase and make them do pretty stupid stuff to get that release.

If you REALLY love him, you should go and buy some lube. So yeah, you are not really in the mood. Who cares? I'm also not in the mood to go to work on monday morning. Still do it. It may feel a bit weird and inconvenient to let him fuck you when you are not in the mood, but it will make him so incredibly happy. And if you really love him, you will want to make him happy, see it as a regular gift only YOU can give to him. Whats 15 minutes of being a bit uncomfortable to the happyness of a person? Heck, maybe you even learn to put on a bit of a show *shrug* Make him feel he did a great job there, giving you 2 orgasms in a row.(i am usually not advocating faking it, but if you just lay there like a log of wood and let him "do his business" only more problems will arise)
And to be honest: There's a good chance he will eventually look elsewhere if you deny yourself to him.

This absence of a libido thing happened with my ex. Ruined the relationship too. We had both been under some strain in the relationship but this certainly didn't help.
Make SURE he feels loved. Even if it's not through sex. Just make sure you show him you care and aren't losing interest in him emotionally.

You mean begging isn't a turn on? Damn it, thats my main approach. The other one is alcohol.

Poor bastard. Perhaps get him to work out more to work on his muscle tone. At least if you're still not turned on by him he has a chance of picking up a less boring girl?

Labido booster= Exercise!! Plus if your stressed your labido will drop hugely! This might sound HORRIBLE, but I suggest you try having sex even though your not up to it, tell him your not into it, but you want to try for him. That he has to be careful and gentle, and foreplay with you alot. It's possible you want it, but you just don't know it. If it's been a year then you should definately give this a try :) I had a bit of a labido loss for different reasons, and I kinda had to ease myself back into it with the help of my boyfriend. ;) goodluck!

Yes i agree with foreplay to get you in the mood. It doesnt even have to be anything sexual. For me i get turned on wen y boyfrien makes me feel like a lady or just acts like a gentleman, so for me taking me to a nice dinner is like foreplay! You should explore the things you think would turn you on about him. Or maybe give you a message or something.

Another trick i use to get myself in the mood when im anticipating having sex is that i read literotica or watch some porn. That way im turned on by the time i see him ad he doesnt have to try too hard to get me on the mood, just how he likes it. Men can see a half naked body an get turned on, but for girls it takes much, much more than that.

Unless of course if you just dont think hes good in bed, thats a whole different problem.

You're supposed to say "Yeah why?" And then he says "cause if they're flaring you're going to get raped" Or atleast that's what I've seen so far?

Google treatments for female sexual dysfunction.

I suggest you do something to boost your sexual appetite soon or he will likely leave you or cheat.

I think both gender's cheat plenty. That's more of a luck of the draw as opposed to being cheated on cause you aren't satisfying your partner sexually.

it's time to figure out why you're with him.

i don't believe someone is obliged to put out but... if you're taking from him and not giving anything back ... maybe it's time you let him go so he can be with someone who WILL love him completely

Don't blame him if he leaves you. He is in the relationship to make both of you happy, not just you.

I think that once you start doing it you feel like it feels good so you keep doing it and then afterwards you and him are both happier.

Im only in the mood maybe 5% of the time that my boyfriend wants to have sex. For 90% of the time i still do it anyways because i know it will make him happy and he becomes visibly less stressed and less cranky. Personally i think its worth it. Now ive also dated someone in the past who couldnt get it up. He wanted sex all the time and it would usually be like having sex with a bowl of jello. In that case i had completely lost my drive and stopped having sex with him. If you KNOW why youre not in the mood, then you really should address the problem. Otherwise you and your boyfriend really arent much more than close friends and you will eventually at some point find someone you are sexually attracted to and want out (he was my favorite boyfriend but in the end sex was really a deal breaker, and i denied i to myself for a few years, just like you. Either you will ventually need it from somewhere, or he will become so miserable that you wont have sex with him an it will drive him away. If youre just not "in the mood" i would definitely consider doing it anyway, hell i do it for my boyfriend a few times a week and its really not THAT bad :/

thats right, just point your ass in his direction and read a book, it couldn't be easier.

if you need to leave to answer the phone, just say "down boy, down" then come back later.

whats the big deal

Or get drunk or take Viagra, but give him some. A year is a bloody long time!

Fair is fair.

If your BF wants sex and you don't want it, then just tell him no. If he throws a fit, come up with a aggrement. Sex only works if two partners want it.

Yeah gotta agree , to love hims all nice and dandy but that doesn't mean you'll want him. Could be an attraction thing .

He best be cheating on you.

tommy shut ya ass.
You may love him and if this is true you should respect his natural urges to have sex with you. Go to the chemist and get some lube, if you want go to the doctors and try some alternatives eg. horny goat weed. (this does not invove goats, sorry)

hmm, yeah true but i still think it shouldn't be a must have.

It could be a medical problem which you may want to check with your physician about.
Or you could have some repressed psychological issues which turn you off from your boyfriend.

Are you on hormonal birth control? The Pill KILLED my sex drive. Dead in the water, no desire whatsoever. Could you be suffering from depression? I would get to a doctor, something isn't right.

How can you really love him and don't care about his needs or pleasing him.You should be trying to make him happy.And if you don't have sex with him should try something else for his needs.Sex shouldn't be the main part of a relationship but it is a part.

Is it fair that he's gone a year without sex

lay off, a relationship is not all about SEX, if it is then that's not true CARE and LOVE

Your right sex isnt the main part of a relationship but it is a part.If you really love your other your surpose to do what you can to makes them happy even if its sex.She said he be trying his heart out and its been a year since they had sex....Come on you really think thats fair?Then if her man cheats then he's a dog.A good relationship both should do what they can to keep each other happy .

true and true, but still loving someone is not anything to do with sex, otherwise its not love its lust.

Im sorry he still shouldn't have to beg...come on you really think its fair if he begs after a year and still and no sex?That's not right...it's not bad to lust for the person you love.A good relationship you have each others back with everything...50-50.Thats a part of a relationship not the biggest but a part.Think of it like this .... you can get the biggest pot.If a drop hit that pot its little but after awhile that pot fills up.Just like sex!Not getting none it start off small but after awhile it fills up big...

I do agree a relationship needs to be 50-50 but she doesn't OWE him sex just like a man shouldn't OWE his girlfriend a ring. The reason for her lack of desire is worrisome as opposed to unfair. I would say this same thing to a woman who desired sex but couldn't get it from her male partner: there is always your hand. Physiologically woman desire sex more as they get older and are able to perform better with age. In contrast men desire sex and are less able to perform as they get older. Nature is a cruel bitch. I hope in your old age your penis stays soft and limp, friend. Also, contrary to popular belief, a man's dick doesn't fall off if he is abstinent for awhile. I don't support your pot theory as being a fair rebuttal. Also, if this guy is only happy because of sex there are other things wrong. True, I'm sure he'd love to shag but I'm sure he's more worried about why she doesn't want to than this lack of penetration.
