I’m 28 and she’s 25. We started dating two years ago.
She doesn’t talk about sex so I don’t know if her problem is with me or if she’s always felt that way.
We did have sex at the beginning of our relationship, but I think she just did it to please me.
I don’t think it’s normal for a woman her age. My previous girlfriends always wanted to do it.
I’ve tried everything I can think of to get her in the mood – being romantic, buying her gifts, complimenting her on her body. Nothing works.

Every problem gets a personal answer, usually within 24 hours on working days.
She just says she’s not in the mood.
What can I do? I love her and don’t want to break up with her, but I can’t stay celibate for long.
DEIDRE SAYS: If a young woman has no interest in sex, there’s probably something deeper going on.
Maybe she had a previous bad experience, or was abused.
Can she feel low about herself or are there issues in your relationship?
You need to talk to her and tell her that you love her, but you’re worried about his, and feel like you’re both missing out on intimacy.
My support packages, Is She Not Keen On Sex and Reviving A Woman’s Sex Drive, can help.
