Is it normal that he wont have sex with me anymore?

I have been engaged to a wonderful boy. We are only nineteen please no comments about our age. We have been together almost four years now. Of course when we started out we had sex a lot. Every single day we broke up for four months and now are living together. for some reason he all of a sudden will not have sex with me. It is breaking my heart. I know sex shouldn't be important at all but it makes me feel unwanted unloved etc. I need to know if this is normal or not. Is it just because we have been together so long? Or is this a serious problem? He says he just doesn't feel the need or want to have sex anymore. He still holds me, tells me he loves me, kisses, hugs all that. I'v tried to leave him. He doesn't want me to go. He wants to be with me but why the sudden change? He wouldn't cheat on me. Isn't gay.. I just need some help and some answers. I am sure that this is normal..but I need another opinion. I need storys. i just need some help.
I love him. I do not want to leave him but if I should or if this is a sign to end it all. Please someone just help..

    Maybe he's tired of the same routine?
    Go buy something super sexy, like lace lingerie, and also pick up some popsicles.
    Act confident and sexy and tell him what you want to do. If it doesn't work, bad sign...
    If this is hurting your confidence and putting the brakes on your feelings, you need to tell him, and maybe end it. At 19
    You should be having plenty of sex.

    Umm, he's probably watching way too much porn and masturbating to that, and then he doesn't have the desire for sex. It's a very common thing these days and it's messed up.

    Hate to break it to you. This is a big problem. Sex is an important part of a relationship, because it bonds two people together. If he is not having sex that means 1) he is depressed- is he on anti depressants? 2) He's super stressed out about something to the point he cant have sex 3) He masterbates A LOT and is addicted to porn 4) He is having an affair- guys who have affairs do not find their girls attractive enough since they are into someone else

    You need to get him excited back in life, be flirty with him, get his mind off stress, get some lingerie do something different.

    It could be nothing but it could be something serious. I think it's odd that he doesn't want to have sex at all if you have told him how it makes you feel. So maybe there is something going on in his life that he isn't talking to you about which is making him less into sex. If he is still being affectionate towards you than I doubt it has anything to do with him not loving you anymore or something like that. You should tell him how it is making you feel if you haven't and ask him what can be done about the situation because it is hurting the relationship and you don't want to lose him. Like Proudfear said... if he is taking a new medication it could make him not want sex at all. So just talk to him... tell him it is making you feel unloved and maybe he will come around. I wouldn't end the relationship over it though. A lot of couples have a point in their relationship when they stop having sex for a while. I know in my relationship (I'm 23 and have been with my bf for 6 years) after a few years of dating we had a big lull in our sex life. We literally only had sex like twice a month. And it lasted more than a few months. But that stopped eventually. Now we have sex at least 3 times a week. So it could just be a phase. Four years is a long time to be with someone... don't waste all that time and effort just because things aren't going great now. Just talk to him... good luck!

    A mans sex drive is very closely tied to other parts of his life. If he's worrying about anything it may stop him from wanting to have sex with you. Worst case however he may have an interest in someone new and stopped having sex with you because of it. Depending no what else is going on in his life it may be time to call it quits. If its because he's stressed about something he will tell you but if it's something more sinister he won't tell you the reason. Chances are if that's the case he will either tell you he doesn't know or give you a reason that's obviously bs. I'd have to agree with 8Serene8 though, dating an x is never a good idea. They're an x for a reason.

    he may be waiting trying to make it more specialafter your marrried,ive heard f couples doing that but just him is a little odd, if hes not doing that or cheating he may need to see a doctor (is he on medication some do that to you), youd dump j=him over sex?

    When I was with my ex I totally lost all interest in sex Infact the thought of it repulsed me entirely, I mean we were in a 10 year relationship and the more she told me how everything revolved around sex the more I saw her as some shallow hateful cow.. to be fair she was always concerned about herself and rarely made any effort anymore, she never dressed sexy. When she came home she stank of drink, took her makeup off and tied up her hair, it all added up to just nothing.. she ended up cheating and then realised how much I did for her and that sex was not enough to make her happy.. it was too late for her now id made my mind up and after a few months started dating again, it shocked me how many girls just wanted to rush into sex and again it made me anxious and uninterested, eventually I met a girl who actually didn't care, she was so kind and giving and just a lovely person, when we had been together a few months we began exploring our sex life at our own pace and just made no big thing about it, she's everything my ex and most other girls I met were just too selfish to be, were both really busy with work now and we just haven't had the energy to be sexually active, although we always make sure we spend time together and our relationships brilliant.. I'm afraid relationships can't exist in harmony when one person starts thinking more of their own needs than that of their partners

    Never date someone you have broken up with. Its always doomed to fail if it didn't work the first time. I'm serious.

    i was this way with my wife at one point because i'm a sex addict and would masturbate and be spent! I also got turned off because she gained a lot of weight. I learned later she loved to be licked and i love licking pussy and making her cum multiply! I later went through high depression and anxiety and was never in the mood......

    Maybe he's preoccupied with something, maybe he's cheating

    There can be several factors going on here. If you sure he isn't getting it some place else, and has no physical problems, then there is something going on in your bedroom that is making him loose his desire.Sex is a complicated thing. Sometimes when we have sex and there is not a connection it can just feel empty. There is a reason, you just need to find out what it is. Does he have performance problems? Maybe he feels he is failing you. Maybe he feel like sex has gotten to emotional, or not emotional enough. Only he has the answers.

    marriage means life. If you are not satisfied now what makes you think you will be 50 years from now? Marriage isnt the fix all to relationship problems, if they were there when you are dating they will simply follow you once you put the rings on. If you are unsatisfied with your sex life and he is unwilling to make any effort into making you happy it is time to cut your losses. At your age you can have plenty of opportunities in your future for happiness you don't need to settle for something that isn't the complete package or someone who isn't willing to do so much as try.

    My guess is low sex drive , he sounds like he does really care about you but at times many factors can cause him to feel this way and most of them don't involve you eg. Stress , depression, medication , lethargy etc. Go with him to the doctors and he'll feel supported and things may pick up with or without help .

    You might have done something to make him mad, or maybe he's just waiting til you guys are ready to explode? it's not as big a deal as you might think I promise. If he feels unappreciated I've heard of men doing that so they feel really wanted.

    there is only one solution: bring your best friend over and have a threesome.
    you're welcome.

  • He is having an affair, probably because your vagina has become loose.
