Would you breakup if 2 months without sex?

I love my girlfriend and we get along amazing. But in my current situation, only had one oral sex during that period. I had final exams for 1 month and girlfriend didn't want to visit just for the purpose of sex which obviously wasn't, because free only for few hours. For one month my girlfriend felt really lonely regardless we are calling about 5 times a day though arguing and she's socializing with friends. Whereas I'm at home cramming everyday non stop feeling horrible. After another 1 month passed, she keeps abstaining sex because we wants to build emotional connection again, which is fair. I'm trying my best while but secretly resenting her for so long without it. Now two months passed, still nothing ker kitten has died unfortunately, another week passed and period coming up. We are at work so schedules only suit weekend but she plans one day with friends only. She wants to make it work once all the hassle is over but isn't 2 months too long? We are 3 year relationship by the way in our early 20s. Sorry needed to vent

  • Nobody owes your sex... that being said a relationship is a social contract with expectations. If your not providing your end then I would consider this contract void.


    People talk about love lmao. Love is for people that know and respect each other and are willing to sacrifice for each other. Including sex when not in the mood. I’m sorry but as unsexy as it is discussing expectations especially the sexual kind the fact is in any contract you set the standards up front. You can’t change the contract because something happens just renegotiate it. If negotiations break then it means that’s the end of the agreement.


    You might need to wait on a good woman but a good woman won’t ask you to wait also. Sex is a great stress relief. It helps overcome life’s bullshit. A woman that’s broken by life’s pitfalls just isn’t strong enough to have a relationship. A man as well so understand it’s your job to take on the responsibility of the relationship and the bullshit of the world while she supports you.

    • I actually agree. With that being said, I think buddy just needs to move on because the likelihood of her cheating is high.

    • I can’t speak to the likely hood of cheating. If I don’t know then I’m not particularly against it. If I found out heads would roll though. I don’t trust easy. If your a whore and make me look stupid because word gets out then I’ll make an example of you but the fact is thinking you can get true loyalty from anyone is laughable.

    • Dude... if she broke up even temp ide walk out I ain’t got time for fucking games.

  • Yeah, end it. If someone can make the time for you and won't, you aren't high on their priority list. Unless they're low on your priority list as well, get out of it into a relationship where you do value each other.

    How the hell can you complain about being lonely if you'll only talk on the phone and not visit, because she wants it to be more emotional. That's the most stupid shit I've ever heard. What part is fair? You don't rebuild one connection with a person by breaking another one. Anyway, you're a dumbass for putting up with it.

    I also guarantee that she isn't abstaining, but simply making sure things are going well with whoever she's upgrading to. She won't see you, won't sleep with you, and is still going out. You already aren't in a relationship. Oh, her fucking kitten died, how sad. Wake up man. The high school relationship is over, you're studying hard, get with someone who will come over and study with you.

  • To answer your title question, no I wouldn’t. In fact, it took us over a year of no sex to break up.


    It sounds like she is being open and honest with her feelings with you so you need to do the same. I’m not saying tell her “I need sex”, tell her you miss being intimate and with her. It’s a reasonable feeling and I’m sure she will meet you at least halfway and work towards building those feelings.


    To the guy who said that her cat dying is an excuse is an extremely ignorant comment. I’m sure the situation isn’t the same but my ex’s cat died about 2 weeks after his nan died. His cat had been with him as a kid. The two combined destroyed him emotionally. My cat is my world, he’s helped me through long term poor health, rape, break up, caring for my dad... at the end of a bad day he is always there for me. Perhaps you should speak to her about her cat and what the cat meant to her. You can start healing that break for her and she will emotionally come back.

    • @Hidden_P That was me who made the "ignorant" comment about the kitten excuse. First of all I've lost 5 cats in my life, so you calling me ignorant is pretty irresponsible. I'm not getting into a whole cat death grieving discussion anyway. My point was it was just one of her litany of excuses that add up to she don't gaf. Aren't you girls always saying "if he's interested he will make time for you?" Does it seem like she is trying her best to make time for him? I think it's funny this girl is just getting a pass, when if a guy were treating his girlfriend like that the pink users would be raining hell down.

    • Did you not read my reply @spartan55? I stuck with my ex after a year of no sex, his cat dying his nan dying. I’m not the typical “pink” user and I’ve been fair in my comments regardless of gender.

    • So you don't see excuses from the girlfriend here?

  • Im assuming your a young guy and she is a young female. If you love someone and care about them and been together this long then sex should be the least of your concerns. You made it this far. Obviously you care about one another or its been just a waste of time. Im totally confused about the oral sex issue. Are you referring to phone sex or an actual blowjob? Two months is a long time if you live together or in same town but its not a deal breaker. And perhaps you should try sex before, during or after her period, its not a big deal. Oral sex on her during that time may be tricky but bottom line is, i think you need to grow up.

    • @dollalone He needs to 'grow up' huh? So he should just put his relationship needs aside while she makes up excuses not to see him? Why are you deciding that sex should be the 'least of his concerns'? I thought you girls were all about caring about your partners needs and feelings? Guess not

    • @dollalone 3 years and she needs "time to make an emotional connection" again? If they have made it that far as a couple why would she need to do that?

    • @spartan55 she's staying on code for most women. They know that she's more than likely cheating but doesn't want to say it.

  • I hate to break it to you but you had 3 years and now she wants to build emotion?
    She is fucking other guys, maybe girls too.

    Find a real woman! One who isn't confused and deceitful!

    • She could be looking for more of a commitment and possibly ready for marriage too.

    • @Valerie315 Of coarse I do not disagree but she should have started the relationship without sex in the first place. But she had a legitimate reason like adapting to a new religious belief she change her position for that reason, anything else is a complicated question if she is cheating or trying to be abusive. You know as well as I do these things. There another poster who was together 6 years and she adopted her religion and claims she is trying to be more moral in her relationship. I believe her. Her man is still refusing marriage and complaining about being deprived of sex which she is not withholding for any nefarious reasons but her own feeling that have grown to a higher moral level.

  • Sounds like she’s lost the emotional connection she needs in order to feel sexual pleasure with you. I wouldn’t break up with her. Talk to her. Make time for her. Cuddle with her. Show he how much you love and support her emotionally. I had a 4 month long stint like this during my marriage. It was 100% related to emotional validation.

    • How are you doing with the breakup?

    • Quiet relieved but at the same time confused. I feel like the situation could be fixable if we both tried. Right now contemplating should I initiate contact and apologise on my part and hopefully she does too or move on, but I feel like I want her to intiate since I dont to give her power. Currently I have another lady I'm texting ready to date but its too sudden for me.

    • Taking the high road and apologizing and owning your piece is always a good choice. Let me tell you this from years of experience.

  • I think you need to talk to her about it. Say that you miss the sex and would like to get back on it

  • Dude, it sounds like she isn't really into the relationship. Her kitten died... are you fucking kidding me? I'd tell her your needs aren't being met. Two months would drive me insane.

    • It may not automatically mean she's not into the relationship, maybe her sex drive has changed. But it doesn't automatically mean the relationship is lame to her

    • @shadyresidence Then she should communicate that with him. You have to admit there seem to be plenty of excuses from her.

    • I respect you so much

  • Maybe you should try taking her on a date or doing something special. She might not be giving in causes your relationship is lacking romance

    • Yeah, romance her while she's basically letting another guy f*ck. I notice that women hate being honest about this.

    • @otaku_owl_91 I dont know who this bitch is so not gonna pin cheating on her right away

    • @Apple1996 ok, then she's more than likely cheating. I'm sure you're familiar with the signs.

  • It depends on how old the relationship is.
    2 months plus a day- I'd move on.
    It's definitely something that the couple have to talk about.
    It's a symptom of something.
    Could be anything from a medical or psychological problem to an affair.

  • Congratulations on your three year relationship & if you are happy in the relationship you’ll find a way to make it work. On the flip side does your wrist hurt? How is your man to hand relationship, hump your fist brother.

  • I don't believe in going backwards in a relationship. If I feel we aren't as close, or there are any signs of animosity building up between us? I'm out

  • That's completely idiotic to break up over that

    • Lemme guess: you think men should forgive women for cheating.

    • @otaku_owl_91 no. What? This has to do nothing with cheating. Cheating is unforgivable. She wants to build a emotional love connection and not just have sex every time they see each other which is a healthy relationship. It's unhealthy to just have sex every time. It would just feel to us as if we are just being used for sex and not love and actually doing things together.

    • But if you have had sex with a man before you don't go deprive him of it for 2 months it is kinda the only reassurance we get u still like us

  • If there's a reason for such delay in consummating, you can and should keep a brake on your hormones.
    If there is none or none that could be deemed smart, you should discuss the thing with her. If the result of such discussion ends in silliness, it's probably not worth waiting any longer. Otherwise, grit your teeth or fire up PornHub.

    • @the_maphio The reasons she is giving him are bullshit.

  • If you are communicating with her and telling her that you are feeling deprived sexually and she keeps making excuses to not want sex with you then yes you have a right to leave that relationship and find someone else , Never be someone’s sitting duck , when you give someone an inch they will take a mile , so whatever her reason is for not wanting sex with you , is bringing fire into your relationship. Someone that actually loves and values you will not hold walls up from being intimate with you , never be someone’s convenience , life is to short to settle for someone that only likes the convenience of you , plenty of fish in the sea to choose from then to deal with someone that uses sex as a weapon to gain , fuck that bitch and move on

  • I've been more than a year without sex, while in a romantic relationship. There can be reasons why that happens. It's certainly not nice, but not immediately a reason for breakup.

  • Not necessarily but it's a massive red flag.

  • I had gone 4 months at most without having sex with my girlfriend, but my situation was a bit different. This seems like she keeps finding things to reject sex over. I'd say give it some more time, but don't wait too long. If she keeps postponing sex over things, she's either trying to manipulate you, or worst case scenario, cheating isn't out of the question.

  • I always thought there is a lot more to relationships than sex.

    • @exitseven I agree, but why does that mean sex has to be put on the shelf?

    • @spartan55 The question asks about no sex for two months. If a relationship cannot go two months without sex it is not much of a relationship. I am recovering from surgery and I cannot have sex for two months. My wife said she will wait for me. She was only kidding when she said that because I know she won't divorce me over this.

    • @exitseven You are right, but go back and read the bs reasons this girl is giving him... didn't see any surgery.

  • Sex is an important part of any serious relationship and is a large factor of why many relationships end up with a lot of toxicity and end. People don't communicate enough or don't try to understand the others desires enough.

    My advice would be to try and communicate your thoughts openly with her and if she isn't willing to fulfill your desires, then best to find someone with better sexual chemistry. If you're serious about someone you should always care about fulfilling their desires.

  • You are still in the courtship phase and she has turned off the tap.
    She is either frigid (a mental illness), or, more likely, she is getting her itch scratched by someone else, to whom she will monkeybranch soon.
    Whichever is the reality, she has failed the test.
    Blow her out an airlock.

  • Get a NEW girlfriend - one that likes to fuck more. Or several. :)

  • Two months? Shit, by the second or third date, if we aren't fucking by then, then she can find someone else.

    • They've been dating for 3 years

  • No I wouldn't.
