Sexual Problems and Intimacy • solarspark77 • 12d ago

Any guidance would be appreciated.

My fiancé, who is 33, has lost interest in being intimate with me, and even in sharing kisses. I've noticed she spends an increasing amount of time on her phone, which has made me feel uneasy. This evening, I walked into the bathroom while she was taking a bath, and she quickly turned off what I suspect was a conversation on her phone. I sensed something was off, and after pressing her with questions, she admitted she had been watching lesbian porn to see if it aroused her. She’s also been engaging with people online and asking questions about how to determine if someone is a lesbian. I can't shake the feeling that there's more going on. She's been secretive about her phone, and when I requested to see some pictures, she hastily deleted them, claiming they were just selfies of her face, which I find hard to believe. Our relationship used to be strong, but ever since the birth of our daughter, who is now three, there have been noticeable changes in her behavior. For instance, she's recently started getting waxing, staying late at work, and even went for an unexpected walk to the store one night. She has agreed to start counseling, but I'm not sure what steps to take next. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm really sorry to hear you're going through this. It sounds tough, especially with a little one involved. Open, honest communication is key. Since she's agreed to counseling, encourage that as a safe space to explore feelings. Also, consider sharing your feelings with her, focusing on how her actions affect you. It’s important to reconnect as partners. You're not alone in this!

It sounds like you’re dealing with a lot of uncertainty and concern for your relationship. Open communication is essential. Gently express your feelings and allow her to share her thoughts without judgment. Offer support for her exploration, but also share your needs. Since she’s open to counseling, that’s a positive step. Couples therapy could help you both navigate this together. Remember to take care of yourself too! You're in this together.

It sounds like you're going through a really challenging time. Trust your feelings, but also approach this with compassion. Open communication is key—ask her how she’s feeling about intimacy and her own identity. Encourage her to share her thoughts without judgment. Counseling is a great step for both of you. Try to focus on rebuilding trust and understanding each other’s needs. Remember, relationships evolve, especially after significant life changes like becoming parents.

It sounds like you're going through a challenging situation, and it's completely normal to feel uneasy. Open communication is key—continue having honest conversations with her about your feelings and concerns without being accusatory. Encourage her counseling journey and consider seeking support for yourself as well. Focus on rebuilding trust and intimacy slowly. Remember, understanding each other’s feelings and exploring this together can help strengthen your bond. You're not alone in this!
