My partner and i have been together for a few years now and up until 1 year ago we were having sex every 2nd day if not every day. 18 months ago we decided to try for a baby, and we havnt hadnt had any luck so 6 months ago we decided to go see a fertility specialist. as a result we learnt that my partner has very low sperm count, almost infertile.
i think that becouse of that he has pulled away in a sexual way. he insists that that has nothing to do with it and that he has just lost the urge to have sex. he claims that he is just to tired after work, and on the weekend he just says he doesnt have time.. not in the mood... i have tried everything.. i have tried dressing up in sexy outfits ... nothing, no respons... i have tried giving him lap dances.... nothing... i have even tried tostart something in a risky place... danger of getting cought and all that, he used to love that... still nothing... i am starting to feel uncomfortable around him, i am never naked around him and it is starting to really effect our relationship!
we really nbeed some help. any help anyone can give me would be appreciated!

You might be feeling neglected because the lack of sex in your relationship. but for any person to be told that they might be almost infertile can have a devastating psychological effect. It would seem that your partner has been deeply affected. He might need some reassurance and understanding. Another visit to the doctor might give him advice and refer him for psychological help. I wish you and your partner best wishes.
