Sexual intimacy

My bf has a very high sex drive however I have a very low one. Is there a way to fix this? I have no motivation to do anything. We have been together for 2 years and I’m not completely comfortable doing something’s. But I have never had a sex drive I’m 19.

You should talk to a doctor. You may have hormone imbalance.

Right there with you 🙋🏼‍♀️ it’s a struggle. Honestly wish it was more accepted to not want sex 😞

Both you and your bf should read the book, ‘come as you are,’ by emily nagoski. It is very informative. You can get it free from the library either in print or audio book.

Try scheduling days for intimacy. We have tried things like saying Tuesday and Thursday for sex. It gave him something to look forward to and me a set day to prepare for when I was struggling with a low drive.

Working out regularly always helps increase my sex drive.

There is a medication that can help with low sex drive - addyi. I tried it for a bit, and it was somewhat helpful, but I decided to go off because of cost and deciding we wanted to start trying. It's not recommended for pregnant women.

I was in the same boat when I was your age, turns out I haven’t yet figured out what I was into. You also need a great partner who will make you comfortable and help you figure out what you enjoy. Now I’m in my 30s my sex life couldn’t be better. Even when my sex drive is low because of hormones / breastfeeding / tiredness, me and my husband know what I like, and we can get me in the mood.
I highly recommend trying different toys for women, even on your own, and a website called OMG YES . It’s research backed information into women’s pleasure with tips and techniques for you to try. It’s really non sleazy and not at all like porn.
Good luck, you got this!
