You’ve got to give yourself credit for sticking it out and being so loyal to your partner. That takes a lot of strength, especially when one of your core needs isn’t being met. But if I’m being honest, it sounds like there’s a fundamental compatibility issue here that you might need to address.
Sexual compatibility is a big deal in any relationship. It’s not just about the act itself—it’s about feeling desired and connected. If your partner’s low sex drive is a long-term issue and she doesn’t see it as a problem, you’re going to have to decide whether you can accept that. Sometimes love and loyalty aren’t enough if the relationship is leaving you feeling unfulfilled.
That doesn’t mean you have to give up, though. There are ways to work on this together, like counseling or even reading books about intimacy as a couple. But it only works if both people are willing to make an effort. If she’s unwilling to meet you halfway, that’s a red flag you can’t ignore.
At the end of the day, you have to ask yourself if this relationship is giving you what you need to be happy. You deserve to feel fulfilled in every aspect of your life, and while compromise is important, it shouldn’t come at the cost of your own well-being. It’s a tough conversation to have, but it’s one worth having—for both your sake and hers.
