Is sex a deal breaker?

[Anonymous]

Guys, if your partner has a lower sex drive than you, is that a deal breaker? Or do you find a compromise between the two?

The ability to compromise is a cornerstone of any relationship. Besides, sex is really only fun when you both want it. I once heard a woman say, "sex is just something you do for your husband", and I find that idea repulsive. I would tell my partner, do it because you want to, or don't do it at all.

& In that case if she doesn't want to have sex with me, for any reason other than medical reasons, for a period of at least 2 months, only then would I consider it a problem within the relationship.

• low or no sex drive could be a sign of physical, mental or emotion issues or stress.
• having an active sex life together with your partner. is pretty much the clue that holds everything else together.
• sadly the longer couples live together or cohabitate. the less likely they will have sex with each other. most often due to their sex life together becoming mundane or boring.
• which is why couples need to spice things up now and then. while keeping an open mind to suggestions from their partner.
• works for both sides of the coin that if their partner. is unable or unwilling to help keep their sexual urges in check. their partner should not be shocked if they try to deal with it themselves or out source.
• ideally a good relationship requires 4 key pillars to last the test of time.
• physical attraction, mental attraction, emotional attraction and sexual attraction.
• which all need to remain in sync with each other.

This is 50% of the reason why I divorced my ex-wife. I tried compromise and I still believe in compromising for other aspects. But more than that? I believe in finding a more compatible partner in life.

She was highly attractive to me, we even went to doctors to see if it was a medical issue and she checked out fine. I wasn't blindsided by this, I made the decision before marriage to "compromise" but I am who I am. Her sex drive was simply too low and I refused to cheat on her, so I divorced her.

I'm currently in a way better loving relationship now with a woman who feels the same way. And? We don't compromise. Lesson learned.

I'd be suspicious of her cheating if it seemed like she didn't want sex with me, but as long as I could confirm that she isn't, I'd have no problem at all with that. I don't think of sex very highly right now

If I want sex 4 times a week and she wants it once a week, a reasonable compromise is not once a week. End of that relationship!

If you're that shallow or horny

Depends on how low, I guess.
And if its really low, then she is going to have to be making up for it intellectually and with lots of needy cuddling and also be okay with me taking it 'into my own hands'.

Hopefully sex is intense and way better when it does happen.

You can't force a sex drive but surely there are other things that attrarcted you you can't just build a relationship on 1thing So no it wouldn't be a deal-breaker and a compromise can be found

Always compromise. When me and my lady go to bed we usually lay in a spoon position. If my love is tired or not in the mood, she will arch her back such that her butt kinda grinds into my dick. That's her sign to me that it's ok to proceed. I love my lady!

I dont think I've ever met a woman who wasn't up for sex all the time. Once women are emotionally happy and feel safe, they want it round the clock. Bloody insatiable.

Just what we men have and need 😀

Where there is true love, there is no deal breaker except unfaithfulness.

Nah I mean don't get me wrong I'm a big fan but I'm there for the person. You can get sex all over the place but a good partner is hard to come by
