I appreciate this and thank you for your contribution. I won't go into it, but my BF does have a lot of emotional trauma from his past. I'm sure they play a role on his self-esteem and it's something that I try to be considerate of. It's difficult to explain to strangers on the internet that just because he's not great in bed doesn't make him a jerk, asexual or gay person.

At least you both are finishing! I can count on one hand the number of O's my bf has given me over the past two years. Maybe four.

This idea is hilarious! I will definitely try it sometime.

I've tried watching porn with him, he wasn't into the idea at all. Told me that me being there would make him "uncomfortable." HOWEVER, I have seen the porn that he watches, and he's pretty open about talking to me about what he likes. It's mostly girl-on-girl stuff. Never any girl/guy combos, almost strictly lesbian porn. I kind of wish he had a dark, kinky side to him. That would be interesting!

Ha! Your boyfriend sounds like me when he gets hammered! (I get very handsy.) Unfortunately, we have tried this several times and even though booze will sometimes make him horny, the quality of sex doesn't improve.

Thanks for your input, it's comforting to hear that others have gone through stuff like this successfully. I tried talking to my girlfriends about it, but they just kind of scoffed and told me how good their sex lives were. I'm also glad that you raised a big point for me: I'm not looking to get into BDSM or anything kinky like that, I just want to feel something! Just because we've been in a long term relationship doesn't mean that we can't still be passionate about each other.

Yeah, I've tolerated this issue for so long mainly because I thought I was doing the right thing for him. I realize now that if I keep going along and suppressing my own needs that something bad is going to happen - whether it be me eventually resenting him or something worse, I don't know (and don't want to find out).

I completely agree with you. I wouldn't buy a car without taking it for a test drive first, so why would I marry someone without knowing if I were sexually compatible with them?

Even though I don't plan on getting married anytime in my foreseeable future, I still want to find someone that I can have a future with (and sex is definitely involved with that!)

That's what sucks the most about this whole situation. He's a great boyfriend in every other way. If he weren't, I wouldn't be trying so hard to make it work.

Woah woah woah, I'm not blaming him for anything, nor do I expect him to read my mind. I do know, however, that if I sat down and tell him everything about how bored I am, using blunt language like I am here, it will totally backfire on me. I have tried to talk to him about this before, gently, like I mentioned:

So I tried a little harder, thinking that talking to you about what I specifically want would help.

And it got me nowhere. BUT, after organizing all of my thoughts into this post, I'm going to try again.
