Girlfriend not attracted anymore??

    I don't know whats up. I'll be with my girlfriend for 2 years on Saturday. When we first got together it was a very lustful relationship we were so attracted to each and in love.

    Recently though I've noticed that when I go to kiss her she turns her head and gives me her cheeck. I find it very weird considering its even when we are all alone.
    She was always egar to have sex but I noticed whenever I bring it up she changes the subject.
    and when I told her I made reservations for our anniversary she was more interested on meeting up with our friends afterwards than spending time together.
    Shes really busy in college and rarely gets a night out and I understand that, but I seldom see her and the few times I do have now we just sit quietly watching tv.

    I've said it to her but she insists she just worried about exams etc.

    I'm not sure what to think....

    She's taking you for granted OP. Time to tell her to stop being lazy in her approach to it or you'll be leaving her.

    Happened to me with someone I was mad about a few months ago. Turned out she just didn't fancy me anymore, I had become her best friend apparently. Quite the kick in the knickers. Hopefully this is not the case for you, but you need to speak to her, there may be other issues but it looks like the lust has gone and she doesn't want you that way anymore.

    Well, she may just have a lot on her mind regarding school, etc. I'd say wait until after exams have passed and see if you notice her back to being herself. That should confirm if her recent lack of interest is due to school stress or if it's something more. If it's the latter then I'd say it's time to have another chat and really find out what's going on. A relationship can only work truly work if both people are honest and willing to communicate about what might be bothering them. So if she's not feeling it anymore for whatever reason, she needs to be honest about it so that the two of you can figure out what needs to change to get the spark back.

    Don't mean to sound flippant or anything OP, it's just that when you mentioned she turns and gives you her cheek instead of a kiss, the thought crossed my mind that would it be possible your breath might be off-putting?
    I'm not for a second suggesting that you are unhygienic in any sense, and this was obviously not a problem before, but could you recently have developed something that causes this.
    It could be caused by Halitosis, which could be caused by gum disease, a cavity/dental decay, not brushing your tongue correctly, in some cases even a stomach hernia, or a sinus problem with your nose could cause an odour around your mouth or nose breathing.
    It would be a massive turn off sexually, and she might just be the type who is a little immature or far too shy to mention it. There is a good chance that you might not notice an odour yourself, and most people would never point it out to somebody. Ask an honest friend or family member their opinion, and just ask her outright if this is a possible issue.
    If this is not the problem, you'll just have to sit down together to tell her how you are feeling, and talk things through together. Hopefully you can sort things out easily, she might just be a bit stressed lately.

    I do have now we just sit quietly watching tv.
    I reckon this is the death of many a relationship.
    What part of you or your life together exites her?

    Physically - what sort of shape are you in. If your a fat slob then you would "really" want to be bringing a serious game in other departments.
