Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health My boyfriend has always had a high sex drive while we’ve been together (he’s lifestyle is poly).
Recently about 2months ago, his mom just passed away and it’s been very challenging with grief & getting back into the routine.
We haven’t had sex or a proper kiss for a few months now. We still cuddle and hold hands but thats about it.
is this something I should be worried about?
We no longer have sex, should I be worried?

12 47He may still be dealing with his grief, but if it continues past 6 months then be worried.
I think you just need to talk to him about it. Doesn't seem like a case where he just went off you or anything. Seems his mother passing has affected him deeply. I'd say have a talk and both just say how you feel so you understand each other. Dont think its something to worry about from a relationship point of view.
Depression can affect his sex drive as I know from experience just be patient and help him through it. Time is a great healer but he needs your support to help him through it
Obviously one of his other Poly-bitches is doing him better. You're about to get dumped.
I'd say the relationship is dead. sorry.
Give it some time.
No... having sex doesn't means that you 2 love each other... it's the emotions that matter
yes but take it slow as long as he is still cuddling and holding hands give him some space. Yoiu could also ask him
I would ask him to seek counseling to help him grieve, just to have someone unattached to talk to
Talk to him about it owes you the reason not wanting sex
Wow... he lost his mom and all you're worried about is why you're not getting any.
Get over yourself and do that thing that you're supposed to do in a relationship and support him.
No, I’m not worried about getting any. There’s ways i can get some. I’m worried he is losing himself. He already isn’t himself in many ways..
Ahhhh so something is 'wrong' with him because he dare have emotions. You're part of the problem
I think what she's saying is he's "lost" in his grief and none of how he is reacting reflects the person she knew. What I think about that is if he was very close to his parent is when he lost her, he lost part of himself he didn't even realize he "had." So he has to rebuild himself without his parent. That's what the grief process does... The asker never ridiculed her partner for having emotions.
Soon maybe. Give him a little more time then address the subject.
not at all. he’s going through trauma and it’s normal to have a low or nonexistent sex drive during grief
No, he had a traumatic experience happen to him.
1st off you're not much of a girlfriend if you don't realize grief is a damn good way to kill sex drive in men & women.
2nd off he's poly for all you know, as you're this self-centered as to be more worried about you & not him, he's seeking comfort from a better woman.
