boyfriends lack of sex drive
Posted: 05-09-08 01:26am

I have been seeing my boyfriend for about 7 months, but I have been friends with him for over a couple years. I am a very sexual person, and need sex in a relationship. alot of it. really good sex. The beginning of our relationship was wonderful. We'd just stay in bed all night. Lately, my boyfriend wont even touch me. He is on clonzepam for panic attacks, and recently tried getting off it, but had to get back on. Granted, we are staying at his mother's for the time being (until we find a place), and have been constantly around each other, but I still need sex. It's the only thing that makes me truly happy. I can't talk to him about it because he will say I am being dramatic. I don't know if I should leave him, I really am not attracted to him except for the sex. He's my good friend though.

ugg. someone help me please. I feel like I'm stuck here.

Why would you stay with someone if it was just a sexual thing? Especially if you weren't getting any sex? (No disrespect, it just sounded funny)

Talk to him about it. Really, thats the only thing you can and should do. Just tell him how you feel and then ask how he's feeling. Honestly, if he just blows off your feelings and says you're being dramatic then his sex must be amazing because there's no other reason that you've stated for you to be there with him.

Your with him for sex and only sex but your getting nothing? Why would you waste his and your time like that? Why would you move in with him? Thats what couples who are in love ad plan on having a long relationship do. Not just for sex.

I agree with the previous poster, but it also worries me that you say sex is the only thing that really makes you happy--in life? in relationships? I also love sex, and never get enough of it with my husband, who doesn't understand that it makes me feel better psychologically even more than physically. But there have been times in my life where other things made me feel that good psychologically. What sorts of other things make you happy? Which of these things can you include in a relationship? It sounds like there's other things you like about him, since he was your friend before he was your lover! What attracted him to you as a friend?
I also don't want to sound harsh, but what do you look for in a guy besides good sexual ability? (I mean, an expensive vibrator can do more things in that region than a guy can...) What other pleasure can you find with him? If the answer is nothing, then this relationship doesn't sound great... And yes, I think most people don't feel turned on by their parents' house... but you won't live there forever, right? Rolling Eyes

haha good point

maybe the reason you aren't getting any is because he's starting to feel...used? I mean you basically said the relationship was about sex...and like maddie said..if you aren't getting any..whats the point?...plus..you really dont need to use him like that...some guys have feelings you know....believe it or not

^leave him. If you're not attracted to him except for the fact that he puts out, the relationship is doomed anyways.
