Lack of sex

    Is it normal to go for weeks and weeks without sex in a relatively new relationship? Both of us have been stressed out by work but I (male) don't think it should affect bedroom activity. It's starting to bug me a little now as there's always some excuse for not wanting to and it's making me feel a little bit down about the whole thing.

    There is no normal... you need to decide if it's normal for your relationship. If you're not happy with it, you need to talk to your partner. It may just be a case of differing sex drives.

    From experience, if there are excuses about not wanting to then it's most likely a mismatch of sex drives. If you're both prepared to compromise and work on it, then it can be resolved, but it's not easy.

    OP here

    I'm slightly afraid to talk about it as it may come across as me being demanding or something like that. I also want her to want to have sex and not just because I've brought it up.

    Hi OP. Well, one way or another you are simply going to have to raise the subject. Pick a time when you are both relaxing together and mention that you have not been intimate much in recent weeks, how does she feel about it ? You need to open this topic because it is an important one in every relationship and can't be left to chance.

    All thebest
