Break-up

Posted by no rose garden on October 15, 2009, at 20:54:00

My boyfriend and I broke up last night....It's because I don'twant any type of sexual interaction and he needs it as part of a relationship.

I guess I'm ok with it, but it's still sad and I'm a little worried for him. I'm afraid he's taking it harder than me...and he left a message saying he wants to talk. I don't know what to do.

All guys want sexual stuff, huh? I guess I'll be alone forever.

Probably all but a very few eventually want sexual stuff, if not sex. Drives vary a lot, but in a romantic or coupling relationship, I think you'd have to be very clear up front to find someone else who wasn't interested in sexual activity.

Is it all sexual activity you object to? Or just intercourse itself? Had you known him long enough to feel safe and comfortable with him?

Have you talked about these things with your therapist?

Dear NRG, I think all breakups are hard; had you been together long?

Sounds like you're not sure whether you want to talk to him or not. I echo Dinah's wonder about if it's all sexual activity or not.

I don't know what to say to support you. I'm sorry you're sad.

(((you)))

luv, Kath
