He doesn’t enjoy sex
Ok, I’ll try and make this quick and not long winded. My BF and I have been together for three years. A year and half ago I discovered he has a problem with porn. He has never really enjoyed sex or foreplay with me or any other past relationship and openly admits that. However, he looks at porn a lot. We have gone to counseling for it, but he doesn’t ever follow up or make appointments for follow up. It’s all up to me to book the appointments and want to keep going. He just sweeps it under the rug and nothing changes. When I bring it up (which is everytime) he has various excuses like shift work, feels fat, doesn’t like it, etc). So I’m not an overly sexual person. I like physical intimacy and enjoy pleasing my person and having that connection, but sex isn’t something I like NEED, more like something I want, but he’s not so much into that. He tells me he doesn’t look at porn anymore (even though I know he does). I love him, he loves me, we are comfortable, we get along, we’re both easy going, he treats me well and is kind. He ticks a lot of boxes except the sex thing. I can’t help but feel like I’m missing out on a great sexual connection that might even lead to a even stronger emotional connection (my bf is not emotional at all). On top of it all, I’m 37 and still haven’t had children (I did freeze my eggs - which I paid for on my own while on disability undergoing chemo and while in a relationship with this guy (1.5 years into the relationship)). If I leave, what if I lose my chance and end up with worse.
