Am I a bad girlfriend? *kinda long*
* I am 27 and he is 31 if that matters*
My bf and I have been together for almost 5 years. We have had some VERY rocky patches in the past due to things he had done and I gave him several chances to change his behavior (I have caught him several times talking sexually to other girls, catfishing girls on dating sites, etc. I know, I am stupid for even giving him a chance after that but I am a very forgiving person.) He always blames his screw-ups on the fact that I have a low sex drive.
I havent WANTED sex in a very long time. Probably 4 years or more. We usually have sex about once a week. I have talked to my doctor about it several times and she tells me there's nothing she can do to help me. I have tried getting off birth control (didnt work), taking antidepressants (didnt work), and trying different types of birth control (didnt work).
I feel bad that I can't satisfy him and his needs, but If I don't feel like having sex, I won't. And lately, he has been basically telling me that I'm a bad gf for not wanting to have sex constantly like he does.
He will mumble things like "what a waste of my time" or "gee thanks for wanting me" ir he will tell me he's "getting on Craigslist to find a hooker". And he is constantly making comments about me having "another bf" (I have never cheated and never would so idk where he is getting this).
I am well aware that I should probably end things because I obviously am not enough for him. But we have a home together, a cat, chickens, and all our other stuff. His son calls me mom, we have full custody of him and I feel like it would be really hard on him if I left.
I dont really know what I'm trying to get out of telling this story, I know I need to leave, I know I would be happier, im sure he would be happier...i guess I just needed somewhere to vent.
Thank you if you read this far, I know this post was a little long!
