Sex Drive on E

JahWill

It's been about 5 months since I've wanted my husband in a sexual way. I love him. I love spending time with and talking to him but I'm just not sexually attracted to him like I used to be. Now, I'm not interested in or seeing anyone else either, so don't let your minds wander lol. I'm honestly devoted to my marriage.

I started having this issue in late January, early February but it wasn't noticeable to him. We had some schedule changes so he didn't really pay too much attention to our lack of or rather, change in sex life. We've always had a healthy sexual appetite but something changed.

I got my first round of depo shot in early March and that first week was great, we were just as normal. The second week I started spotting, which turned to full on bleeding by the 3rd week. That continued until the end of May. Then back to spotting. In that time we weren't having sex as usual. Maybe 3times in the shower and that was after more than a month and I only did it for him. I felt nothing and faked it. I feel so bad for doing that. 😢

This last two weeks he has asked or attempted to get things started at least 6 times and I only gave in once. Today he tried everything to get me excited, including oral for at least 15 mins and I was cold, numb, not interested in the least 😞. He just quit trying and went to the bathroom to finish himself (which has become the norm).

Again, I love my husband and I truly want to make this work. I just don't know where to start. I'm still attracted to him. We spend hours talking on the phone and he's the first person I look for when I open my eyes. He's my best friend, my soulmate. I just want to love him right. Yes, sex isn't all there is to a relationship, but it darn sure is important and a healthy sex life is very important. I want a healthy sex life, like I used to have. Please, if there's anyone with ideas, tips or even a story of your own, feel free to share. Thanks!
