Not feeling it


Question Posted Sunday May 16 2010, 11:05 am

My bf and I have been going out 7 months and things have been great overall. However, on our last date, I just wasn't turned on. I hardly even wanted to cuddle. I have only been on the pill for a month, so maybe this could be a side effect? and I definitely overate at dinner, but I don't know whether that could have had any effect either. Was this just a one-time thing or could it be a symptom of a deeper problem?

i live with my bf and every time him i see him i dont get turned on. its just growing up and getting used to being with some one. but do you still feel butterflys and love him? if all spark is gone then maybe its a sign but if you still care about him i wouldnt worry about it. dont rush into worring go out a few more time and see if it changes. if it doesnt then maybe worry alittle bit or see if he feels any diffrent.

There's a 97 percent chance it's your birth control.

My wife had issues like this. She would describe it as even sometimes being horny, but the idea of acting on it was entirely unappealing. Sex drive, affection, it was all becoming an issue.

Went off it, and her sex drive exploded back out to normal levels inside a week.

I can't advise you to go off it, but you should be aware that lowered sex drive is one of the most common side effects, and the amount it's lowered can be pretty profound. Once a day to once every two months profound.

Give it another month or two. See how things go. If you continue to feel like this stop with the sex and go back off the pill for a month. If there's a dramatic change, you've got your answer.

Depends,



Some birth control can cause woman to have mood swings and be less affectionate then usual as most birth control have "low sex drive" side effects depending on the pill and the woman.


It could be maybe you are falling out of love in your relationship, The spark isn't there anymore. The only way to know is to go out a few more times and if it keeps going on the way it did then it would probably be that you just aren't feeling it for him anymore.

There's no way to tell until you go out a few more times and see if it keeps happening. You can look up side effects for your birth control, though.
