    I moved in with my Boyfriend about 3 months ago, He was Laid off and i quit my job to move 2 hours away to be with him. Im 24, he is 29 and we live with his mother until we get back on our feet. I think he’s changed alot since i’ve moved it… mostly less affectionate. We have sex maybe once a week….and its been a re-occurring issue in our relationship. He Says its because he feels he’s being disrespectful to his mother. But even when shes gone at work. he doesnt ever initiate it. So yesterday we got into an argument about it and he basically said our maturity Levels are different because he’s focused on making Money and getting out of his situation…and apparently all im worried about is sex. I understand he’s almost 30 and living with his mom and not working is hard on his ego….but he seems to be shutting out our relationship…im not really a needy, clingy person…but at the end of the day, im a woman…and women like compliments….and to be honest….i havent got not one compliment since we moved in together. he makes me feel so unwanted…i guess i just dont know what else to do at this point. he doesnt see where im coming from at all…

    There is no reason in the world for your boyfriend to have invited you to move in with he and his mother, when he’s lost his job and is living with his mom until he gets back on his feet. 😯 His focus seems to be in the right place — getting work and getting his own place. It’s understandable that he’s uncomfortable having sex with you in his mother’s house — because frankly, you shouldn’t be living there.

    I’m sorry if this comes across as harsh, but your question about how to get your sex life back on track seems entirely inappropriate given the elephant in the room which is that you moved into his mother’s house. If the two of you were married, or even engaged, and had fallen on hard times, I would understand the situation, but since you quit your job to move into his mom’s house, I’m thinking you need to rearrange your priorities.

    My advice is that you move out and get a job and give him the space to get one, too — and his own apartment. It’s very hard for men to want serious relationships when they don’t have their own lives in order. He’s getting his act together — now it’s your turn! 😉

    i understand where your coming from…but he is the one who insisted i come move in with him…before i moved..we had a long distance relationship and barely ever saw each other. and it was really bothering him…so he talked me into to coming to live with him.

    Read Think & Date Like A Man, [url]https://www.askapril.com/dating-advice-books.html[/url], a book I wrote for women who want to find, get and keep Mr. Right. You can buy it at the link I’ve just given you or on the websites for Amazon or Barnes & Noble. Among other things, you’ll learn that if you want a relationship that works, you have to choose a man who is READY for a realtionship. 😉 If a guy is unemployed and living with his mother, he’s not ready. 😳

    YOU have to make decisions about relationships. It doesn’t matter how good a salesperson he is, if he wants you to come live at his mother’s house where he’s unemployed and shacking up with his mom, don’t do it. It’s a bad relationship decision. Find a man who is READY to be in a relationship or recognize he’s not ready now and wait for him to be independent before you consider dating him further. 😀
