If you and your partner are having difficulty in the sex department, the most important thing you must do to rectify the situation is communicate. If you are the person with the higher sex drive, tell your partner that you desire more intimacy. While it may be challenging, try to investigate why your partner may be struggling with their sex drive. Do they enjoy having sex? Is there a disconnect in the relationship? Ask questions. 

Sometimes your partner may not even know there is a sexual mismatch present. That was the case for Kiana, a 26-year-old artist from NYC. Kiana told Allure that when she finally worked up enough courage to chat with her boyfriend about his low libido, he didn’t even “notice” that it was an issue. 

“Truthfully, I don’t even think my partner noticed the mismatch in sex drives until I chose to have a conversation with them about it, which turned out to be quite tense,” she revealed.
