Connor gets a shock when his two lovers meet
DEIDRE SAYS: IT CAN be really frustrating when a partner doesn’t want intimacy as regularly as you.
Unaddressed, the problem can lead to resentment, low self-esteem and even paranoia.
But cheating is not the way to deal with it. Betrayal simply makes the situation worse and creates new issues.
Talk to her about how a lack of sex affects you.
Admitting that you feel unwanted, less desirable and lacking in confidence can seem exposing, but explain how intimacy is important to you.
And ask what is going on for her. She could be stressed about something unrelated to you, or maybe there are other issues in your relationship that you need to tackle.
If you recover from your infidelity, you’ll genuinely reconnect, not just in the bedroom but emotionally.
My support packs, Cheating, Can You Get Over It? and Different Sex Drives, will help you both.
