Boyfriend lost sex drive...

I'm 21 years old and my boyfriend is 35 we have been together for 3 years and I love him very much. In the last year or so we've stopped having sex as frequently and when we do he doesn't last long... I know he's still interested in me because he tries to get me to send him sexy pictures ( so that's not the problem). Is this normal? Maybe because of his age? Other than the strain this puts on our relationship we have a great relationship. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Yes you did.
Men finding a mate is somewhat of a ritual. It goes way back to the caveman days. It is very different from how women preseve men i believe. Once the man has won over the women (and in many cases was not easy) and is secure that she is his, he tends to take her for granted. Even sex can become a back seat. Other than a medical condition for his lose of his sex drive, men get used to having sex with the same person. Its not that they want to cheat or have an affair its like eating the same thing every night. If this is the only type of food available (as in being married) they will eat it but nonetheless its something they get used to.
I think part of this is in the fact that we seem perfect for eachother in the begining, but then flaws and personality interests pop up which makes interest an issue.
The longer your married, the more interest in sex will diminish. Many people married many years, eventually get their own bedrooms.
Do what femine charm will allow to acomplish in renewing his passion for you but getting back to those good old days might me a journey.

Hey. Thank you! We've never had any rituals I'm very easy going when it comes to sex. There were times when it was more on the romantic side then times when its more demanding. We mixed it up a lot. I hope that answers your question.
