    My girlfriend (24) and I have been living together for about 6 months. We had previously been dating online for about another 6 months prior to this, and there has never been much sex. Once a week if I’m lucky, and I’ve always wanted more. I’ve tried being understanding and asking her if there’s anything I can do to increase her sex drive or w/e. It seems that when we get to the actual sex, she loves it, moans loudly, really gets into it and whatnot. It seems the problem is just getting her in the mindset of having sex.

    Another problem is that she quit her job shortly after moving in. She claims she hated it and couldn’t stand the people and this has caused her to go in a pretty significant debt and hasn’t been able to pay her half of the rent for many months, leaving her owing me around 2000 dollars. She has a job now, and will begin working soon (I hope) and she should be able to eventually pay me back. In the meantime I have been paying all the bills and yet I don’t feel she is even grateful for this.

    I love her very much and I am extremely attached to her. But time and time again she will make empty promises of sex and 99% of the time she won’t follow through with it, leaving me feeling like shit and like she can just walk all over me. What can I do? I have tried time and time again to talk to her about it, how it makes me feel like she’s being disrespectful and inconsiderate of my needs. If it were up to me, I’d be having sex 3 times a day but I’m fine with having it every couple of days or whatnot. I just want her to meet me halfway and be cooperative. I’ve discussed all of this with her to no avail.

    What can I do? Am I overreacting? Should I be content with what I have?

    It sounds like you jumped the gun moving in with her. You had a six month online relationship, never dated in person, and then moved her right in with you! You missed the entire dating period! 😯 That would have given you more clues as to who she really is and what she’s like. Now you’re feeling trapped.

    If the problem were just the frequency of sex, given what you’ve written, I’d suggest that you work on seducing her. Foreplay is very important for women when it comes to sex, and that’s the key to getting her in the mood. However…. since she quit her job before moving in with you and doesn’t seem grateful for everything you’re doing, and isn’t generous with sex, I think you have a bigger problem here. It sounds like she’s just a stingy person. 😕 When people are stingy with money, they’re often stingy with sex, too…. and it really feels like she’s putting her own needs way ahead of yours. In fact, yours don’t really factor in at all.

    Should you be content with what you have? No.

    I agree with everything you say, but what can I do?

    She still owes me 2 grand, and I still love her. Should I just cut my losses and move on? is there anything I can do?

    I think you should cut your losses and move on. 😳 You discovered who she is after you made the commitment. That’s exactly what you want to do differently next time. The dating process is actually extremely useful — don’t rush it next time. 😉
