Why isn't my new partner turned on by me?

Hi, I would be grateful for any views on my problem. I met my boyfriend six months ago (we are both in our early 60's). We have both been married, had families and been in previous relationships . I have grown to love him very much but one issue is spoiling my happiness - he does not seem interested in sex. We live in the same town and he has stayed over at my house a few times when we have shared candlelit baths together and he is always complimenting me on my body, saying how attractive I am etc. He will spend ages kissing and caressing me but it stops there. I have tried to talk to him about this but he just says maybe its because he respects me too much. I feel this awful pain of rejection because I want him so much. I know I am going to have to talk to him some more about this but how do I go about it without hurting his feelings. He is a very fit man with no health problems that I know about. I would appreciate some advice. Thank you.

A female reader, janniepeg Canada +, writes (9 August 2014):

janniepeg agony auntAny reason why he's only stayed at your place a few times in 6 months? Have you been to his place? I am taking the information here that he is healthy and being a gentleman. He also tells you he finds you attractive. I don't see why he has to lie and stick with you for 6 months. I would just tell him that I am ready for sex and I respect him, then he would not have anymore excuses since you don't see waiting as respect. At this point you can't rule out erectile dysfunction since it has psychological causes not just physical. Maybe he has serious performance anxiety. If that's the case you could try to find out ways to relax him, or have a talk about where this relationship is going.
