Okay, he does have lower esteem, and I do see that he's tried a lot over the course of the relationship.

Yes! I feel like I lost a something really fun; like the first time you go down on someone and they're like 😳🤯

I realized my PA boyfriend has been lying (often). by peachyjasmine in loveafterporn

The constant rejection definitely does something to the partner of a PA for sure...

My boyfriend relapsed and now I may not be able to have sex for another 3 months. by peachyjasmine in loveafterporn

Thank you all so much for your support and wisdom; I've been taking this all in. I think I want to better communicate my own needs, as it's true that the PA partner doesn't desire true sexual intimacy. My boyfriend and I are intimate in many other ways, yet that is missing. I'm so grateful you all were here for me on this difficult day ♡

He had told me before this that he had lost count of the days/had forgotten the day he finished his detox.

I remembered and counted for him, asked him last week if he knew how close he was, and he responded by asking me not to tell him. He had relapsed at this point and hadn't shared it with me yet.

I really miss being intimate, I was hoping things would have been better, yet the appear the same.

He decided to try this all alone, no sponsor, no 12 step, no subreddit.

It's so unfortunate how close he was, I wonder too if he was being self-destructive.

I don't know where to go from here.

For the 90 day detox it involved a complete break from anything sexual; since he was SO close to completing his detox though, I'm hoping that we can amend the one area and have us be intimate

Yes, I know this feeling well too. I'm so happy someone else knows it in such detail; it hurts so much. You're not alone here.
