Women and sex drive...

[kryptic]

This question is primarily addressed to women but can equally apply to men.
If you lost your sex drive, how do you deal with it in terms of your relationship? (Obviously, if you are singe then there wont be much of a problem)
Would you simply sweep it under the carpet and pretend that everything is still OK in your relationship or would you seek some sort of medical advice?
If your partner still desired you (sexually) but you were more than happy just to carry on as though everything were ok, would you expect your relationship to survive?
If you lost your sex drive, do you think that your partner would feel rejected and would you really care anyway?...

And she won't discuss it at all?

Point taken Karen......I have a high sex drive and would handle rejection badly tbh

[kryptic]

//Her age could well be related to her reduction (even further) in sex drive, what is more worrying is her inability to discuss it.//
Women just wont disscuss it though.

Spot on pinki!

[kryptic]

women just wont discuss loss of sex drive.

[karenmac60]

Pinki - he likes to think so anyway ;)
Kryptic, that's really not the case - women do talk about these things. How long have you been together?

[joeluke]

I'm sure she'd discuss it if she thought there was a chance you'd look for it elsewhere

[kryptic]

Its just not about the physical aspects of the sex act though is it?
Its about WANTING to be with your partner

[karenmac60]

I agree. Have you tried 'romancing' her? Take her out - maybe somewhere special to the two of you (where you had your first date/wedding or something). Do the whole hearts and flowers thing and make her feel special - not just once, make it a regular thing, a weekly 'date night'. Give her a reason to dress up and feel good about herself - with no pressure to have sex! Maybe a glass of wine or two and the right atmosphere will encourage her to open up and talk to you, but find that spark you had when you first got together.

[kryptic]

Karen, in short, yes.

Piki...... schtop, this thread is not ready for your naughty talk...

[Mamyalynne]

You cannot say that ALL women refuse to talk things through with their partners, I was married for 34 years and we had times when things were awry in that department. We sorted them out though.

Bit green there are we MT?

[karenmac60]

Then I am at a loss Kryptic. Does she still want to be in a relationship with you?
