Low sex drive

[turnable12]

I lost me sex drive for 6 months for no reason, now its back but my gf says she doesnt know if to trust me with her heart anymore as i hurt her so much by not wanting her for so long. She says she needs time away from me and have moved out. We'v been together for over 5 years please help im so lost

Ah, that's sad t12. It's a bit of a lame excuse from your girlfriend - you did explain to her at the time the reason for your 'lack of interest' didn't you?

My first thoughts are, are there other things wrong with the relationship besides the reecnt low sex drive. If things were ok the right partner would be supportive of such problems. Maybe you two need to talk about what is going wrong with the relationship, and not get stuck discussing the sex thing all the time either.

You say you lost your sex drive for no reason. Did you seek medical help? If you were depressed, taking medication, stressed etc all those things can have an effect.

Otherwise I have to concur with Old_Geezer.

the stupid thing is i didnt at the time, i didnt know what was wrong with me i felt a freak a failure i had the most beautiful girl in the world i love her to bits but at the time i just didnt want sex

Personally I think your girlfriend has used this as an excuse to get out the relationship.

After 5 years together, and all it takes is less sex for 6 months and she does a runner?

Old_Geezer and B00 have hit the nail on the head...

hi turntable12, i can see where your coming from cause me and my partner have had the same problem and didnt do the deed for over 6 months once. But i can honestly say we never held it against eachother as we both knew why, we were bothing working long hours, taking care of 2 kids and a home and with the pressures of ffamily life took its toll so sex was not a priority. Sounds to me that your girlfriend has got cold feet about the relationship and is perhaps using the lack of sex as a excuse, if she couldnt be supportive to you at that time then shes not the one for you perhaps :(

If she really love you then she will back. Just explain the reasons clearly and i don't see a point why she can never forgive you.
