How do you handle being sexually rejected from your partner?
Apple1996Master
I dont handle it well. It hurts so bad to get rejected from my husband. 😥 Any tips on how to handle sexual rejection? If you've ever been in this situation just how do you deal with it?

For my personal situation, attraction isn't a issue and we have discussed this multiple times. Also no cheating going on. Thank you guys for trying to help but a lot of y'all are assuming the worst about my situation.
I'm honestly not sure other than asking why and explaining how he's making you feel. Hopefully there's a good explanation.

If a girl makes me feel rejected. Game over she's not getting any sex, the attractions gone and no matter how hard she tries she's ruined it. There are fine lines, equally girls do this to me so I'm not being unreasonable it's just how it is. In a relationship its considered emotional abuse. Your husband needs to sort his shit out or you can get sex from elsewhere.

I understand your update, I wanted to say something about the others responses but I just decided not to. I think what your husband is experiencing is not great, work should end but unfortunately tutors and and others are very dedicated to their work and respond to emails after work time because they care. This then sucks the life out of them. If I want sex and my partner is low on energy I'd probably bring them refreshments all through the day so theyll be bursting by the end. Fruit, B-Complex and B12 tablet lol, glasses of water, have the house smelling of winter fruits with a candle, spiced cookie 🍪 a monster energy drink (contains vitamins). What else? Brush your blow dried hair in his room, the pheromones will drive him crazy. If that all fails 😳

Huh? They would not be a "partner" for long if it was an ongoing habit.
Sure if they have erection issues, or mental issues, then seek medical help. But it could be other issues, in which case it's better to talk to him first, before getting counselling.
If it's lack of attraction on your part then maybe get some better lingerie, make his favourite meals and bring on that spark that brought you both together in the fist place. But don't forget the pandemic affects people differently.
Some people are just in a bit of an existential crisis as science and politics have failed.

Good question. It's been more than a year I had sex with my girlfriend. I still don't know how to handle it. It frustrates me every day. I can cope with it better now. I don't expect anything anymore, to be honest. Sometimes, I have hope. But no real expectations.

I would like it every week. I would be happy with once a month. Heck, even every two months would be fine if I knew it would be on a regular basis. The most annoying thing is that I don't even know why we don't have sex anymore, and that it's basically impossible to have a good conversation with my girlfriend about it. Every subtle initiative I try to take gets rejected. Clearly she doesn't see the problem. I wish I could help you. I have lots of experience with the subject, but no solution either. :(

Wow you're crazy for staying with her. My hubby still has sex with me usually just gotta talk him into it or catch him in the middle of the night when he's sleeping. If I straight up ask its usually a no but I guess that's not that bad considering some people like you never get it

I love her and we're in a relationship for more than 12 years, so I'm not gonna leave her. No way. But of course, it isn't easy. I don't want to be rude, I don't want to force anything. But I don't think I'm asking that much. Even when it would be focused on her, it would be fine for me. I mean, I love to eat pussy. If I could do that now, it would mean so much to me. It would make me so happy. But I didn't even get the chance to do that. I miss it.

There’s this myth that basically sex drive differences can always be magically resolved via communication and a good relationship unless there’s an attraction issue or someone cheating. It’s not remotely true and just makes the rejected partner feel worse.

Why did you marry him in the first place?
What made him stand out from all the other guys?

Haha like a little but really that I loved him and he is a great dad and was a great partner. That great partner thing is where everything is starting to slip out of place.

Real reason is a little deeper then all this tho. Like I knew he was my soulmate and got married so young since he joined the military. Figured I need to be with him now incase in a few years down the road he is no longer here anymore. Not gonna wait like most people normal couples would. When life is possibly on a time limit its best to live for the moment and not wait.

I wouldn't take it well. I'd be pissed, like moody, silent. But I take my time and try to 'read the signs' like we're home I ask him how he is, how his day went, and from the way he's talking I can see whether or not he's doing okay or not. If it's been a long and painful day he does this happy sigh of relief and then I'm like "oh, I'll make him some tea, give him a massage and maybe some words of encouragement" Sometimes that leads to sex, sometimes it does not, but at least he's feeling better. And when That happens, he'll return the favor and that's when the sex happens after all :)

Is he ignoring/rejecting you for a long? Cause even men have mood swings so after few days sometimes months he will get back in the mood. Ok if this is not in your case and he is seriously rejecting you, you can try new tricks to turn him ON. Seduce him but also ignore him, a smart game to be played. For a workaround masturbate it will relieve you.

It's like he gives into sex sometimes or I manipulate him into doing it. Like he rarely ever wants it

Was he always this way or something happened with him that changed him? Choose a good time and speak with him why does he not take initiative for sex? Discussion is the best solution.

Guys can get rejected a lot from the woman they are with as they say they are not in the mood, sometimes a guy isn't in the mood, working and stress or other things on his mind could really effect his erection prob because he's tired or other stuff, doesn't mean it's anything to do with you, don't take it personally
