You've all given me great advice! I appreciate the constructive criticism. It's really made me examine my approach, as well as think about how i have been coming across to him. I decided to TALK to him about it (after parading myself around like a cat in heat didn't work)... It turned to yelling because he was tired again tonight, but eventually he said "Fine!" and I thought we were going to have angry sex, but apparently he doesn't like angry sex. Haha! We started to get into it, but (even though he didn't want to have sex) he 'finished' during foreplay!! Womp womp womp.... At least I know he finds me attractive, and I'm not doing something wrong! Hahaha At lease my voice was heard. I finally explained how much it was affecting my self esteem and my sanity. I promised not to turn him down out of spite, and actually explained to him my twisted reaction to his advances. so, I was promised a day full of love making tomorrow. Hopefully we get past foreplay *palm face*
Just for the record, we have been together ALMOST 5 years, so I was 18 and he was 27. Totally legal in Canada, plus, I was a very mature 18 and he was a very immature 27. I sometimes wonder if age is a reason why he is so respectful in the bedroom! I appreciated it when I was 18 -- he asked if I was sure, and if it was ok frequently, but now that I'm a grown woman I'd appreciate some passion! Haha
30s isn't the age where a guy's sex drive starts to physiologically disappear yet. sure, it's probably less intense than what it was when he was a teenager, but no too drastic decrease should occur. however, sex drive does get influenced by certain things. depression is one thing that can knock it out completely. that's one example. some drugs can interfere with it too. however there are no foods that would boost a sex drive, and certainly not to a degree to do a 180 on it. any such sort of claim is a myth. just ask him about it. see what he says.
i think so many people are so sex obsessed in this day and age they forget to communicate - to connect after all it is this communication that inspires sex in the first place. rather than treat someone like a empty vessel rather inspire a reason as to why you want to have sex with them after five years maybe it's something a little less aesthetic.
It's great for him to be my best friend -- he is. To a degree. It's just that... No one wants to fuck their best buddy. I worry we will become too much like pals if we don't have sex more often. I mean, this is supposed to be a day dedicated to us doing the dirty, but the most romantic thing we've done is have a corny joke competition... And I'm sitting on the couch posting on hipforums, while he is watching a documentary on platypuses.
You turn off the laptop go to him and start .....talk dirty rub him. Turn off the tv. or mention putting porn ion instead of the documentary
that would be exactly who i would most like to fuck. i mean, at the moment all my friends are male, so not so much, but a female best buddy who will have sex with me would be the ideal situation.
Men generally start producing less testosterone in their 30s, that could have something to do with his loss of sexual interest.
Says the guy that connected to the net, to communicate his thoughts in a medium that has only existed in this day an age So its talking that gets you laid, well thats what I've been doing wrong all this time Umm....all the talking maybe? Thread might be a whole lot more accurate if the title was "Do men in their 30s lose interest in nagging?" 0 out of 3 females like this post
