(I realise this isn’t the most important issue going on right now)
So I - a 21 year old guy - love sex and everything related.
My girlfriend of 2 years used to as well, but recently she’ll avoid the topic like the plague.
There is a reason, and we have talked about it. She was diagnosed with IBS, which doesn’t have much research on it - but does have record of severely lowering sex drive. Now at this point, let’s just confirm, this is perfectly ok and I understand it.
When we’ve talked, I’ve always explained that it’s ok that she doesn’t want anything done with her, but that I have more needs than she does and I’d like her to try and show interest. But she still won’t go near me. And that occasionally comes to annoy me, every now and again.
This isn’t a critical issue in our relationship really - but something that annoys me so I obviously want to try and find a way round it. Any advice on what I/we could do going forward appreciated.
And on a separate note: if anyone has IBS and has the same issue, do you have any notes?
Thanks!
