Low sex drive...

My hubby and I have been together for almost five years (married for two). I'm 36 weeks pregnant and we got in to an argument about sex. To the point where I don't know if he's staying or going. I have a low sex drive and think it's because of what happened to me as a child (I was molested by the neighbor). I want to be more sexual and intimate with him, but it has been hard for me. I feel put off at times when I try, and I get blamed for it. I don't want to give up on our marriage, but feel that he has. 😢😢😢

Is this the first time you've brought it up? If not, then he was aware of what "he was getting into" so to speak with your past so he can't up and leave now using that as an excuse. I find that cowardly and you both need to see someone to address all concerns i.e your abuse and his anger/possible sexual frustration. I'm sry for what happened to you and I pray you can move past it in the near future together. Good luck.

I'm the same way except I have to reason for low sex drive other then thats how I was made. It caused fights in the past but we comprised and he realized they i was putting more effort in and wasnt telling him no just becuase i wasnt in the mood. Now that im pregnant (33 werks) we only have sex like once a week. He hasn't said a word, i think he just knows its awkward for me and i cant enjoy it.

I agree with Jasmine, romance novels can be your husbands best freind 😉. When i got preggo i lost all my drive too, even now i am so tired i would rather sleep. It sounds terrible but i gave my husband permission to have sex with me while i am sleeping, at least i get sleep. If he leaves it is his own fault, but there are things you can do to make things better. Many people have bad childhood memories, and i am not trying to trivialize what happened to you, you need to work on moving on.

If he wants to leave over sex I'd say let him go. Married or not.

Have you seen a therapist? It will be painful to relive the past but you can start to heal.
