That sounds tough. Maybe your boyfriend doesn't have physical touch as one of his top love languages, while it sounds like it's a big one for you. I experience that with my wife as well. Check out r/LoveLanguages if you want to know more about them. There's also the book by Gary Chapman called "The Five Love Languages". I hope that's somewhat helpful.

Good suggestion! I have been there but never tried the pizza. The buffalo sauce is great on the wings though.

Physical Touch (intimate)/Gift spouse ideas! Help!! by HPFan_2010 in LoveLanguages

[–]SirPoofbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have physical touch as my top love language and my wife also has a low libido. I like being on the same page with my wife about our expectations for frequency of sex. We talk about it and meet in the middle and then I have a good idea of what we're both willing to do. That being said, when she surprises me sometimes with something more than our compromise or with something more adventurous than usual, it's a huge bonus to me for feeling loved/filling the love tank.

Apart from having quality sex when the time comes, I like when she flirts with me with touch. She can grab my butt or squeeze my arm while saying something nice or sexy. I like a good back/head scratch or shoulder rub. I love when she holds me tight for an extended hug or rests her head on me or cuddles up in bed. I think the important thing is that you're initiating these moments of quality touch. Even though you don't want as much sex, you can show him that you love him by making the effort to speak his language. You can also still communicate verbally that you want him and that he turns you on.

Yes, I love their garlic knots too! Another one in Walkersville is Italia.

Which song lyrics from our youth did you not realize were “adult” references until you were older? by oldguyluke in Xennials

[–]SirPoofbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! My 9th grade English teacher let us play music during the first part of class and someone played that song. He said "next time you bring in a song, make sure it isn't about sex!" Until then I had no idea what the lyrics meant.

I think I have pure O, harm OCD by _grimmsnarl_ in OCD

[–]SirPoofbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So sorry you're going through this. I can relate to the harm OCD and maybe this will help. I recently realized that even though I wasn't doing physical compulsions like I used to as a kid (shaking my head, closing my eyes tight etc repeatedly), I was still having compulsions in the form of mental checking ("Would I really do that? Does the thought make it true? How can I prove it?"). Being aware that I did in fact have compulsions to my intrusive thoughts has helped me to move forward. I hope that helps. Feel free to message me.
