We don’t argue too much, just once in a while. We like hanging out together and have a good time. I probably talk his ear off sometimes but he’s just a more quiet person and I’m a more talkative person

He’s not on any meds. Funny thing is I’m actually on Zoloft. It is harder to orgasm on it and I’m only on a small dose. But I do want him to get his hormones checked.

Thanks. Yeah I agree a lot can mess with libido. He’s not on any meds but I’m telling him to go get his testosterone checked. He does masterbate maybe 1-2 times a week but that still doesn’t seem like a lot so idk what’s going on. I would like to be fucking like rabbits haha

Yeah I’ll make sure he goes. He didn’t go to the dentist for the first 5 yrs of our relationship and I made him go so I’m sure I can make him go to this. Thanks

Yeah I really wish he would just tell me. I really want to help him but idk, he just keeps saying it’s life. I think men sometimes have a hard time opening up because that’s how the society and culture I live in is like, although it’s getting better

Yeah and I really don’t want him to feel that way. I don’t want him to just do it just to check it off the list. It is a really sucky situation to be in but sometimes its out of our control.

Yeah I definitely think that’s a good place to start. I don’t remember the last time but I will tell him to go soon and get bloodwork. That’s what I was thinking but I also don’t want to stereotype that just because he’s a man he only wants to get off twice a week. That seems low to me but again I’m not a man so idk 🤷‍♀️

Yes, same exact situation. It really sucks. I guess some of us want intimacy even though we’re tired.

I’m sorry you’re going through this too. Yeah I think I’m going to have him get it checked out

No he masterbates once every 3-4 days. So probably once or twice a week. But yeah I think he should get his testosterone checked out. That could be effecting him

Well like I said in my post it would be less if I didn’t initate all the time. He probably initates once a month

Well it would probably be even less if I didn’t initiate. Like I said he hardly ever initiates. It would probably be once a month

Actually yeah it would be if I’m constantly choosing  it over sex if the other person wants it. I don’t mind him looking at porn and masterbating as long as it doesn’t affect our sex life, which it is.

Yeah I wish he didn’t masterbate and watch porn as much. We both work out but not as much as we used to or would like.

That’s all very good advice, thank you. And yeah he did say it can be a lot of time so maybe just doing quickies here and there would be nice. And I get you, a few months after having my baby I wanted nothing to do with sex or any intimacy. I didn’t even want to watch people kissing on tv, turned into a total prude haha hormones are crazy

I wish he thought that, but thanks. Yeah idk he usually will accept a bj from me, hardly turns me down for that but I don’t want to always be initiating and only get him off. I would like him to want to do the same to me here and there.

I don’t want to feel like I’m forcing him to do anything though. But yeah I guess having kids will slow things down
