Question Posted Sunday January 22 2006, 4:51 am

My girlfriend shuts off all communication when I confront her with important issues regarding our relationship, like not as much spontaneous openness & sex now as in the beginning ?

Well this sounds a bit like my situation.My girlfriend (35 years old) also "shuts off" when i mention important issues about our relationship.I tell you i deserve a medal of patience because this has been happening for 3 years now and this "shutting off" can carry on for days.It,s very disturbing when your partner completely ignores and wont speak.
In the beginning i logically jumped to conclusions that she was interested in somebody else but now i believe it,s something in the past that,s affected her to react this way?

I have the same exact issue. I'm to the point of letting her go and have already started seeing another, much younger, I might add, woman and sex with her is great. I really love my girlfriend, but I'm not going to live the rest of my life unfulfilled. I don't ask alot, but a little bit of effort is not too much to ask. For what it's worth.

She might be scared of commitment...Talk to her. Dont get angry when she tries to change the subject. Let her know that its upsetting you and when shes ready to talk about it can she let you know. Tell her that what ever it is your here for her. Take each thing as it comes and try not compare to other aspects of your relationship. Best of luck xxxx

Comparing the early relationship to the way it is now might be a bad way to go about it.

A lot of relationships start off with a different vibe due to all of the excitement of discovery of each other.

Instead, try to introduce new aspects of yourself to her and see if that sparks some interest and renewed spontaneity. Try not to do this with an agenda. Try to keep it light and fun -- to see what happens.

What was your question?

If you are trying to ask how do you get her to communicate with you about important subjects that need to be discussed then here is my advice.

One of the main parts of a good relationship is communication. Unfortunately this is something you all's relationship is lacking. If you she can't deal with the fact that you'll need to discuss important subjects at times, then I think that you should let her go.
