He says his lack of interest in sex is not because of me! Should I believe this and is there really a man out there who doesnt need sex?

A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Ok... About 16 years ago, I was introduced to a guy by my family. They said he was an "uncle", instantly we grew close and fell in love, but being that we were "family" nothing came of it. As adults we found eachother again and found we were not at all "related". Im 30 he's 28. We began dating a year ago, we've talked marriage and things have been great except for the fact that intermittently (about 3 or 4 times) he begins to have a lack of interest in sex, sometimes for weeks, or longest was a month without it. He claims his brain thinks of it and wants it just that his male part wont participate. He assures me that it isn't anything against me (not being attracted to me, or not wanting me). He says he has no idea why this happens. Should I believe him? Is there really a man out there who doesnt need sex? I'm so confused.

Midge agony auntHonestly it does happen. I know of one couple (friends of mine), her partner is 7 years older than her and he has vowed not to have sex with her until they are married. And trust me, they havent! He has very catholic values and was brought up in a family where sex was ONLY for conception of kids AND THATS IT!!! They have a wonderful loving relationship without the sex.

For most of us, it seems strange, almost freekish, but it does happen.

They have openly admitted that they want to have sex, but he has a VERY low sex drive and she is the complete opposite, however they try and accomodate each others needs.

Sex doesnt have to happen regularly to have a great relationship. You can have one without the sex. They have been seeing each other for a LONG time and its still as if they only started seeing each yesterday, totally in love.

Everyones sex drive is different. Its nothing to worry about!

I don't think that it's you, but maybe he has a low sex drive. Men do suffer from that, it is becoming quite common. I won't worry if I were you. Talk to him , ask him if he would see a doctor . Good luck
