Infrequent sex

Hey everyone,

I’m having a hard time with infrequent sex in my relationship. We’ve done it 3 times in the last 7 weeks. (For us, that’s infrequent)

My boyfriend and I are both on antidepressants and we know it’s his medicine that’s making him disinterested in sex completely. It’s really taking a toll on me because it’s like he’s not responsive when I flirt or anything. We’ve talked about it a lot and it’s frustrating for both of us. Of course I can’t fault him for anything and I love him no matter what. I know sex isn’t the most important part of the relationship but I really miss that connection with him. I know we’re going to go through periods of different sex drives and differences in what we want, but I’ve never had to handle this before.

Does anyone have tips about how to deal with a situation like this?
