I have been having trouble with my other half. He just isn't intimate with me anymore. We have been together for 3 years now and he hasn't volunteered to have sex with me for months now... I respect his space and don't force anything if he is not in the mood or I give him his space. So for the past 2 months. I have been sitting him down and explaining to him how I feel *trying to have a peaceful adult convo. Don't like yelling or fighting* and he just gets really upset and tells me he is just too tired or doesn't have the time for it. He will show me love in other ways such as making food for me or snuggling... but he just doesn't want to do anything sexually anymore. Let's be honest. Sex is a VERY important part of my relationship and it makes me feel really sad that he just doesn't want to be intimate anymore.

Here is the twist.

I confronted him in the past if he masturbates *which is totally normal* and he denies it 100%. My women instinct tells me otherwise. He either goes to the bathroom to "make a poop" *he has really stinky poops so I know when he poops lol* and he will walk out of the bathroom saying he was pooping but the bathroom smells like he didn't even poop... so I'm getting the suspension he is masturbating without telling me. Hey, I mean, I don't mind "giving him a hand", especially if he is tired. But he just seems so closed off... its either he is lying to me *which I honestly wouldn't mind if he just told me the truth* or he is just not very intimate or interested in me anymore 😔. What do you lady's think?
