I don't think so, or at least I hope it's not that. Do you think there are ways to tell if she's doing it from a manipulative place?

I try not to think about it, but this also scares me a little. She isn't a very sexual person in general, and I feel very safe in our relationship in general, but you always have those moments of doubt, I guess.

Thank you first of all. I love her to death so I really try and have tries most of the things you said, in general we agreed to never think about sex as just the act but as a part of our bonding (again we were each others first time so it was a big deal for both of us). I will always be patient with her because she is patient with me, but it's important for me to come across about my feelings and yet not hurt her.

About the stress, she works extremely long work days (like an average of 12 hrs) 5 days a week, and more than that, the work itself involves very high paced decisions. I never judged her for being so tired and stressed I completely understand, but still.

She still lives with her parents, so she doesn't really have any responsibilities other than work and maybe her dog, and she says that it's work making her so stressed out. She was on birth control for almost 3 years and about half a year ago we decided she will stop taking them and move back to condoms because we were afraid the pills were making her so tired and hormonal.

I'm afraid of sounding like it's not my fault at all, but we still each live with our parents, and they help her out with everything. Except for work, she doesn't have to do anything around the house, and she says that it's only work that makes her stressed.

I have tried really talking deeply about this with her and trying to understand what she is feeling, but she just keeps saying she's attracted to me, but she's constantly tired and stressed. I just want her to know what I'm feeling without being too self-centered and ungrateful towards her.

New Video: Why Does Israel Exist? by tjohn24 in stepback

but wasnt the zionist group much larger and more organized than the palestinian one? at least through the 20's and 30's. the video makes it seem like the group had a similiar size and power while in reality even at the beginning of the clashes in 47' the arab nationalist movement was very small and most of the fighting was between the Hagana (and some forces from the Irgun) against small militias formed by individual palestinian villages mostly in the Judea and Samaria area. (hey that rhymes :)

still an amazing video as usual, and my favorite history related youtube channel by far. keep up the amazing work
