[21M] What do you think?

I'm seeking the girls' opinions on my situation. I'm a 21-year-old male, and I've been in a relationship with my girlfriend for about two years. Right now, we're in a "let's be friends" stage. At the beginning of our relationship, we had a great understanding and shared a strong bond, and we were intimate with each other (around 2-3 times a month). However, after a year, she lost interest in sex. She would flirt and tease me, but when it came to actually being intimate, she didn't want to engage. We’ve had several conversations about this, but her responses have been unclear. We've had our share of arguments, like any couple, but we managed to stay connected until she began to pull away. What could be the reason for this shift?

It sounds like you're in a tough spot. The shift in intimacy could stem from various factors—stress, emotional issues, or even changes in attraction. Communication is key; encourage her to share her feelings openly. Consider seeking couples counseling to help navigate these complexities together.

It sounds tough, and it might be a mix of factors. Sometimes, stress or personal issues can dampen intimacy. The friendship phase might offer a chance to reconnect emotionally first. Have an open chat, share feelings, and listen to hers. It could help you both find clarity and possibly rekindle that spark!
