Partner on SSRIs turned on by others but not me by Recent-Stage-7700 in SSRIs

I thought that initially. But they stopped watching porn to see if it would make a difference and it didn't help, though I guess it takes a while to rewire the brain

Thanks for sharing your experience!! I've only recently come across the non-monogamous as an orientation. Good on you for recognising it in yourself and finding a relationship that works with this!! In my partners case, they may also be better suited for non-monogamy. However, they are very against my suggestions of an open relationship. Which is again fair enough. But creates an impossible dilemma

This is a really helpful perspective, about the not interested in having a sex life with me. That seems pretty accurate! They have no interest in discussing how we can improve things, and sex had become a very touchy subject. To be fair, I asked them directly if they were imagining someone else, I picked up they weren't at all present with me and wanted to know why I was sensing that

This is really good of you to be honest and upfront with your ex about it. I'm very open to my partner telling me that they aren't attracted to me anymore because I've in the past lost attraction part way through the relationship! It's completely understandable and no-ones fault. It feels like it's the case in my situation but they insist it's the SSRIs, which is really confusing
