wife/gf lost her sex drive

My gf of 4 years has lost sex drive. She has put on about 25 lbs since we met and she takes prozac for anxiety self pressure issues.  When we met she claimed that none of her past lovers could handle her sex drive.  I could.  We used to have sex 3-5 times per week.  It was great.  Now it is about 1 a week and it feels like I am forcing her or she is only doing it for me, not her too.  Or she will drink a few drinks on the nights she plans to give me sex.  But the honest drive from her is not there.  What do I do?  Should I seek nsa relationship on the side so I don't bother her for sex?

If she does Female deer exercise, she may improve her sex-drive. Google  the above phrase. This technique is based on Taoist yoga.

Hi,
First of all, I would NOT seek an outside relationship for sex, this will not help it will just make things worse.  Talk to her first, communicate!  Tell her how you feel.  Tell her exactly what you told us and ask her what's going on, tell her you are concerned.
Did she start the Prozac after you met?  I ask because I started Celexa which was an anti-depressant a few years ago and it immediately took away all of my sex drive.  I stopped it right away and things went back to normal for me sexually.  Also, if she has gained weight, she may not be feeling "sexy".  If the additional weight doesn't matter to you - let her know that.
Good luck to you :)

Hello,

First off we both need to be honest or I cant really help you. No im not a doctor but I do know alot about this (been there done that) and I have found certain things in every case that lead to this.

First off do you and your Wife/GF have home trouble, do you argue alot when she makes you upset do you yell back and put her down lowering her self confidence. with this if true after a long period of time with this happening a persons loses self confidence and believes this is the new norm for them so they let them selfs go and lose there sex drive because they feel they are unattractive now because of verbal abuse.

if any of this is true reply back and lets get you two back to normal.
