I’m 23, have been with my partner for 7 years and living together for 2. We now have sex maybe once every 4 weeks. I’ve tried bringing it up and even asking directly in the moment, but he’s usually “tired” or “busy” (I help with the housework too). When I’m very straightforward, he thinks I’m joking.
I’d love to hear from others in similar situations:
• How did you handle a drop in sexual frequency at a young age?
• What worked (or didn’t work) to rebuild intimacy?
• In your experience, what’s considered “normal” when living together without kids?
TL;DR: 23, together 7 years, living together 2 years, sex once a month despite trying to communicate. Want to hear how others have dealt with this and what’s “normal” for couples without kids.
