Sexually frustrated
My partner and I have been living together for two years now and it feels like our sex life has just died. It’s dwindled from multiple times a week to maybe once a week on what felt like a schedule to now twice in like three or four months. I feel sexually neglected and I have voiced it multiple times but I also want to be supportive of them if this is just like a phase they’re in or side effects of a medication. It’s so hard expressing that I have a need without feeling selfish. This is my first out relationship and I had never enjoyed sex before this and so it feels like I found the fucking garden of Eden just to be … locked out? I don’t pester them. I do break down maybe once a month and express that I feel sad this is our situation. They seem don’t have a solution.
Has anyone crawled back from a situation like this in a relationship? I love my partner so much but I cannot continue on like this or let it fade to nothing. I don’t think I have a super high libido but once a month with no passion makes me feel so uncared for, especially when I know what they’re capable of. Our sex was literally life changing for me at the beginning. I am so devestated to have lost that piece of them.
I don’t know what to do. Therapy? Ask them to consider therapy? I am so scared of the relationship dying off but I can’t keep living like this and second guessing myself every day and wondering if I’m the issue.
