boring topics as far as I ' m concerned . Sorry . I ' ve got a new idea for a podcastA new podcast yay ! P <| sep |> agree , the lower is easy to make . but nailing the rolling pin into the gas tube of an AR upper is hard without a punch . <| sep |> I want us to be able to figure out a way to make us both happyThen stop wanting sex from him . You ' ve seen that this is who he is . You knew that before you got married to him . You are expecting him to do things he cannot do , to become a person that he currently is not . He admitted that he lost attraction to you it sounds like he ' s the type of guy that ' s only fueled by novelty , by new women and the thrill of the chase . It doesn ' t matter how attractive you are or how good in bed you are , this is something you can never offer him . You can tell him what you want , and how far you ' re willing to compromise . But that ' s all you can do . The rest will be up to him . Is he willing to make the effort , at the very least ? If not . then your only options moving forward are to accept things as they are , cheatgo open relationship , or leave . You already took leaving and cheatingopen relationship off the table , so all you can do is accept it . There is no mandate that he has to be physically intimate with you , you can ' t force him to , nor would you want to I suspect . He is a grown man with the freedom of choice . Either he wants to have sex with you or he doesn ' t . Either he chooses to cooperate with you , or he doesn ' t . You can make your case but the choice is his .
