1 Answers
My girlfriend of 6 years told me a couple of months back that she is no longer 'in love' with me but loves me more than her mum and brother!! she's no longer physically attracted to me and we havent had sex for a year now. we have been trying to work through this but her feels havent changed.
I think i had depression last year and didn't know at the time but looking back im pretty sure it was.... I was shattered but sleeping loads, in a constant bad mood, and didn't feel in love with my girlfriend, my sex drive just disappeared, what was wrong was i didnt tell her just pushed her away, once i realised i went the opposite way towards her possessive and to be honest a complete control freak this pushed her further away and she moved out for a couple of months and almost had an affair but she swears she never wanted the other girl she was just confused.
6 months on and here we are, she says she cant fix it but gets really up set every day crying for hours cuz she wants it to work she wants to be in love with me, she sleeps all day or cries all day if she's not in work, the days we have off together she finds it hard to find the energy to do anything....this sounds so familar as this is how i was when i was depressed..... i think she's got depression what do you guys think? how can i help fix things?
oh we don't argue, theres no badness just the not 'in love' bit :( please please help i dont want to lose her.
she also has polycytic ovary syndrome which can cause depression
