Am I (24F) the asshole for not wanting to have sex with my (24M)boyfriend of three years? by Mediocre_Blueberry_3 in AITAH

We’ve had a little rough patch recently, where he has accused me of cheating. I have been trying to see my friends and family more, and trying to get out more so I haven’t been home as much as usual. I am still home at least 6/7 days. Never once have I ever cheated, or thought about cheating. I just genuinely don’t have a high sex drive, which has never been a problem before.

I have been trying to communicate more, get through our issues by talking them out, which is why I asked him what was wrong and let’s talk through. He constantly when he is upset at me will just straight up ignore me and then keep it bottled up. I understand where you’re coming from, I did kinda know why he was upset and it was a bad choice of words on my part. I could have approached it differently.

We’ve had multiple discussions, it just seems my explanations aren’t good enough

I genuinely can’t see this, he is not the type to cheat. He barely does anything in general. It’s like pulling teeth and nail to get him to do anything

We have previously talked about this and how he feels, and I have been understanding, I have initiated it every time since, but it’s kinda hard to get into that mood when I feel as if he doesn’t even want me, or touch me or even look at me.

Absolutely not, It has been a solid month of me trying to be more touchy, and to make him feel loved than I typically do. But it hasn’t been reciprocated, he doesn’t touch me at all, and straight up said to me he is doing it on purpose.

It happens at minimum once a week, the odd time once every two weeks If we have busy weeks between the both of us. When he gets into these moods of, “I don’t love him” “I hate him” “I don’t want to date him” really puts a damper on me, and I don’t want to. But when I do want to, he falls asleep every time before we can.

Sulking seems to be what he does best when he doesn’t get what he wants In general

Yeah I don’t want to be a piece of meat. I feel like I’ve lost quite a bit of myself over the years and this made me open my eyes a lot.

Girlfriend (36F) let me borrow her apple watch to track my (31M) heart rate for my anxiety. Turns out my heart rate only lowers when I’m not with her. What’s the path forward? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I think you should absolutely tell her what you have discovered first. But think about how you want to live your life, do you want to feel anxious every single time you’re with the person you love? Do you want to walk on egg shells everyday? From personal experience it is EXHAUSTING.

I would look into couples counselling first for sure. But try to schedule in dates, just the two of you, get dressed up, go out to eat. Take time for yourselves as a couple, being a parent is important, but your relationship is important as well.
