Bf has a low sex drive

im 20F and my boyfriend is 22M, and at the beginning of our relationship, literally he would get so turned on by me and always send me cheaky messages and i did too. Now for the past 6 months, nothing cheaky, nothing sexual, no sex, he doesn't compliment, he says he has a low sex drive, which i know is wrong cus he didn't before, but ok, lets pretend he does now have a low sex drive, i have talked to him about it but he says he cant change or make a difference. him not initiating anything sexual is making me insecure with the way i look and my weight. i even sent him sexy pictures but he didn't react at all, he used to react so good. i love him so much and he's such a great person so i don't want to break up but im so not satisfied with my sex life. before i didn't used to watch porn but now i find myself doing so because of no action. i feel so lonely in the relationship and unloved cus he never touches me anymore. Whats the solution if he doesn't want to change, but i love him too much to break up?

Sex drive is fluid and most definitely can and does fluctuate with mood, weather, stress levels, weight and of course, time. So it may be genuine that his sex drive has decreased or vanished. It also may be a case that he’s not attracted to you anymore but maybe doesn’t want to say it to avoid hurting your feelings. Whatever the cause is, if this doesn’t change and sex is really that important to you then the only solution is to break up.
