Do you have a higher libido than your partner?

Question

My boyfriend and I have been dating for 2 and a half years and lately we've had this libido issue. I'm way more sexual than he is. And assuming usual male sex stereotypes (which I know I shouldn't) it just kind of blows my mind. I get turned down more times than I get it and it just makes me feel crummy. I would every night but he wants to once a week. 
​
​I know it's just how our bodies are programmed, and that's ok, 
​but can anyone else relate?

Answer

Hello, I'm sorry to hear that. But I have some great advice that might help you out. The simple answer is (space). 
​Give him some time to miss you and wonder what your doing. Go do fun activites that don't include him all the time. The mystery* will make you more interesting in his eyes. Guys live for the chase. Silly but very true. Men tend to feel overwhelmed when their partner asks them for sex constantly. It makes it an obligation more than a need or want to satisfy you. 
​
​Turn it around and become that sexy vixen he fell for in the first place confidence and a sense of self worth will make you look extremely sexy in his eyes. He just needs to see that sexy confident women you are and that you don't "need him." As much he thinks you do. He'll get the message, and soon enough be begging to be tamed. Just takes a little patience.
​
​Best of luck

Answer

Also keep in mind that there are lots of factors that can affect libido. My husband and I love having sex but the medications he's on can make it difficult for him to get in the mood or finish. I know this stresses him out which can make it even more difficult. Talk to your significant other about it and listen to what he has to say. I find the act of communicating helps me understand myself better as well.
