Hey guys, just reaching out looking for some ideas from people in longterm relationships.
Me (M29) & my partner (F27) have been in a relationship for 6 years, married for 2. We have had a few issues with sex over the last couple – depression/anxiety and birth control have affected my wife’s libido, but we have chatted about things and wanted to kick start our sex life again.
I expressed to her that I am struggling after the rejection, which she understands but I’m so out of touch with how to get back into it that I feel a bit frozen in terms of how to begin to initate again?
Because things have been rather awkward for a while, it’s gotten to the point where I’d really only initiate subtly while caressing her which has worked on and off but I feel if we are to do this and really get things going again I need some advice or ideas.
I’m super open to any ideas, and hearing what’s worked for you all!
(We both have some anxiety issues so it’s really about how to break that barrier – once we are naked and know it’s going to happen it’s pretty much smooth sailing).
