Is my partner using sex or lack of it as some sort of control?

Question - (25 July 2013) 1 Answers - (Newest, 26 July 2013)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My partner of 2 years hardly ever wants sex with me. When we first got together he wanted it 2-3 times a day which I was fine with as it was good. Now it's more like 2 times a week and its always the same. I've suggested different things - but he refused to try. It's his way or the highway! He has a go at me if I initiate anything remotely sexual so I don't. Then he says I never want sex with him! On the rare occasion I initiate and he has sex with me he makes me feel bad. Says I'm selfish. I've given up trying I just wait for him to initiate now. We keep no secrets both out phones and Facebook and emails are available to the other upon request. Nothing to hide. Once I saw him messaging his sister saying I always want sex all the time and he cant cope. I asked him why he said that to her when he knows I've given up and he said he didn't know.

A while back his sister told me his ex was sex mad and she got sex many times a day with him (they all lived together). His sister is my friend so I don't think she would say these things to me to upset me. She said she doesn't know why he always refuses me especially as she thinks I'm nicer and better looking than his ex. He won't talk about why he refuses me all the time. Is he using sex as a means of control. It used to upset me and I used to get so upset and cry but after a year of this I just can't be bothered anymore.

I would dress up as sexy as you can and try coming on to him if it doesn't work i would just give up and tell him you won't have sex with him even when he wants it till he tells you what is going on he sounds very immature
