Figure out and fix what's causing the problem.



my thought too,,

I hate this cultural belief that you either 'are' or 'arent' attracted to someone

attraction can develop over time and it can be lost and developed again,, its not an absolute,,,


attraction is 99 percent in the brain and 1 percent in the genitals,,,

If the Relationship is right; the sex will be good. In other words, it is not the sex that is bad, it is the Relationship.

Work on your relationship because the closer you are in your relationship, the better the sex becomes. You have to have a bond, and when that bond is strong...then you can always work on the sexual part.
IF you are a player then you are never going to feel right with one person. The first thing you have to do is be honest with yourself...do you really want to be in a relationship? If not then you should be honest with the other person!!

that's funny?

move on.....for every hot guy in the world there's a woman he's lied to...(just as an example)

sexual attraction in a relationship is the canary in the coal mine....I can't speak for men but for a woman - if there is no other obvious explanation for loss of desire including medical problems, then the man has done something wrong in her eyes

(it does not mean he is bad - this is just in her eyes things are out of sync - he may feel the same way - either way they need to be in sync)

women are not like men. usually we need emotional intimacy to feel aroused. certainly the OP is not going to inspire that (not that type of attitude)....as an exampleslaphead statements like the one in the OP leave the impression that there is no interest in being genuine and women are objects, not people

I can't speak for male loss of desire, but yes it does happen also.

It is not because of the other person always, but because of a problem or they've grown apart, they're arguing...w/e

it can be because of the man in the woman's perception as I have had that happen to me....I had a LTR where my BF just continued playing games and continued to be incredibly self centered - no amount of communication worked. He did not seem that interested in communication or perceptive to that there was a problem.

does not mean he was a bad person tho - just not on my same plane in terms of emotional intimacy

I ended it because I did lose my desire where he was concerned - but I did not lose my desire in general (I was actually working on that elsewhere when I ended things.....blushing :angel: )

whether it can be fixed is also another question that I'd say is case by case. to me, the bottom line is whether it is possible is to try to rekindle emotional intimacy - for me (and I think for females generally) that is a key ingredient. if that can't occur the relationship is probably over.

Yeah, that's why I said to figure out the issue and fix it. The OP said they still love the person, so it sounds like there are other issues going on.

the woman is not always interested in fixing it or cooperating in that....I supposed the same can be said for men at times

I realize that. However, I can only speak for myself. I can't say what others would do.
