Solutions to Your Man Problems

3. You’re Not in the Mood

The pressures of work, making sure your kids aren’t cuttin’ up in school and paying your mortgage on time is stressing you out. Your libido is taking a much needed vacation.  Meanwhile your man is insatiable. You know he’s stressed too, why won’t he let you rest?

How to Handle It:

True when your mind is somewhere else, everything else shuts down but this dilemma requires empathy on your part.  It’s not him, it’s you. Sorry. While your outside stressors cause a decrease in your sex drive, they will most likely heighten your partner’s. If he’s already stressed, your consistent rejection is not making the situation better . So what’s the solution? Try to spend more time together. Yes it will be difficult, but meet for lunch, go out together on Fridays, or send each other messages throughout the day. This increased exposure will amplify the desire you have for your partner, making sex more likely. When you finally get to the promised land, make sure you communicate with him, so the sex will be good. Remember if done properly, sex can be the ultimate relaxant for both parties.
