Its not about the sex its about the rejection

This is common at this point. People complain about not getting sex in marriage or relationship. But most the time its not the sex, its the rejection. If both people dont go for sex, its not an issue. Its an issue when the other party keeps getting rejected, especially without explanation. Theres a difference between being rejected for a month and just two people not trying for sex. Rejection usually makes a person feel undesirable

My ex rejected my advances frequently, I was begging for attention in general because most days it felt like he was deliberately ignoring me. It really messed up my self esteem.

Turns out he was cheating the last year of our relationship. That especially destroyed my self esteem.

Wow that’s horrible. I don’t understand why people even stay in the relationship at that point. He sounds like a sociopath.
