      Evening ladies, so as the title suggests I’m feeling pretty low today, partner was really horrible (detail removed by Moderator). I woke in the night after only a couple of hours sleep, I’m (detail removed by Moderator) so I wake fairly often. Straight away he woke up trying it on and asked if I wanted a ‘ quickie’ I said no I was too tired and he rolled over and went back to sleep. (detail removed by Moderator) I had sulking, barely speaking to me if I tried to have a conversation etc, I said let’s go out in the car for a drive ( trying to diffuse the situation) and he was vile, said I never want sex, never initiate it, he’s bored etc. I do have a low libido but he pesters all the time and it’s so draining. He then threw at me that I’d said (detail removed by Moderator) months ago that I’d make more effort which I honestly have, and then proceeded to tell me it had been (detail removed by Moderator) weeks since we’d had sex ( it was (detail removed by Moderator) ago) he’s completely obsessed, I looked on his phone last week and his search history is porn and more porn, and sending porn to his friends. He’s never off his phone. I honestly don’t feel like I’ve done  anything wrong but he’s made me feel like rubbish. Anyway since this all happened he’s been so nice it’s actually sickly, and that’s what completely messes with my head. And now he’s booked something I’ve wanted to do for ages, I’m not even sure why I’m writing this, I just know you’d understand x

      Hi Skyfall,

      How are you today? I hope it has helped to share here. You are right- there will be others who understand how you feel and what you are experiencing. You haven’t done anything wrong, he is shifting the blame but only he is responsible for his behaviour. It is a lot to deal with by yourself so do keep posting when you can, it can really help to offload here.

      Take care,

      Lisa

      That’s tough and probably the last thing you needed…but he knows that. He’s taken your pain (tiredness, illness, feeling overwhelmed or whatever else is going on) and twisted it somehow into he’s the victim here. Does a car turn on and drive if it’s got no petrol, hasn’t been looked after and is worn out? Nope and neither does a woman’s sex drive. Let him sulk, do you and stay safe x
