My boyfriend of nearly 2 years hasn't had sex with me for over 6 months. He says its because my 17 yr old son never gives us any privacy as he's always home and my boyfriend finds it offputting. However, we've had a couple of chances when he has been out for the night and he still hasn't made any moves, in fact we argued! something we never did until recently because I'm feeling so hurt that he makes no effort to have sex with me.
To make things worse, he has a very high labido and I know he looks at porn every day, several times a day! Yet there is no intimacy between us!
I find all this so upsetting and I'm finding it increasingly difficult to be my normal self with him. There's nothing I can do or say to him to make him want to make love to me. There's no medical reason either as I know his equipment works as good as a teenage boy's! He's 46 and I'm 44. To make matters worse, he's been living with his mum for the past 3 years to save money and this means we only have my house to possibly be intimate in, and I doubt he will move out any time soon.
We do love each other very much and I always feel so buoyant around him, and I know he likes my company too. But I'm wondering whether we should end our relationship as he just accepts there's no sex within our relationship.
He's very open minded and would like to watch me with another man which would turn him on, I told him several months ago I would consider it but only if our relationship was sorted out first. I would rather be in a monogomous relationship than include others but I would do it for him. Also the other day we were talking and he gave me permission to sleep with other men just as long as I practice safe sex. It's tempting but I really don't want to. He assures me that he has no wish to go with another woman as he had many many women when he was younger and says if he wants sex he can always come to me!
He also won't live with me because my house is 'too small' and couldn't live with my son, only me!
I'm going to be very upset and find life very hard without him but I'm wondering if I should end things? I spent 4 years of upset getting over my exhusband and being alone, I don't really want to be in that place again.. some advice would be helpful, thank you !
