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

Is my relationship over? We've been togethr for 12 years but my partner no longer finds me sexually attractive. We are and have always been the best of friends, our relationship has never been based around sex but now my partnber can't bear the thought of me touching her. We've tried to have a break but miss each other and call each other every day at least 6 times. Should we give up and make a clean break? Or should we give it time for things to re-build themself?

A male reader, Asexy United States +, writes (24 December 2007):

Asexy agony auntThere are a lot of things that can cause a woman to lose her sex drive, and not all of them are hopeless. You and she should get into counseling (find a counselor who specializes in sex therapy, if you can).

You might also decide yourself if you can live in a sexless relationship. If so, then just be celibate and live with your best friend.

You might also ask yourself if perhaps your partner isn't gay after all, and doesn't love you in a romantic way? If so, you should find someone who finds you attractive but work to keep the friendship here while she does the same.

Good luck hon.

rockelle agony auntFrom what I am reading it sounds like you want to make this relationship work. That is a good sign if she is just as dedicated to making the relationship work as you are. I truly believe that when one person doesn't want to be touched by the other then that is a sign of a big relationship issue, and I suggest you try and get to the bottom of it or you get some couples couseling and try and work out whatever the issue is. I hope everything works out, Good Luck.

Hi hun, this is always hard to hear from the person you love. Is there an obvious cause? have you gained or lost weight? if this is the case you may have to alter your diet in order to win her back.

If there is no obvious cause you will have to sit down and seriously discuss this with her. Although sex is not the most important factor in a relationship are you willing to have a future without sex? is your partner? this is never easy but surely you deserve to be loved completely.
