DP and I have been together nearly 3 years. Don't live together but see each other 3/4 times in a week. Unfortunately in the past year sex has gone a bit weird.
DP struggled with ED (mainly going soft during sex) but has made some lifestyle changes and this improved recently but I've noticed that sex has become less frequent and when we do have sex he seems to rush it. I gently explained that I'm feeling a little frustrated as he used to be very attentive and made sure I had an orgasm but that seems to have changed he explained that he gets anxious because of the previous ED so I told him I understand and if he feels like that please could he talk to me?
Anyway fast forward to this weekend and we have had sex twice, all fine, no issues. Then last night DP started kissing me and stroking me intimately & obviously I got turned on. Then he just abruptly stopped and said 'my back hurts' turned over and went to sleep! He was snoring and if I'm honest, childishly I was pretty fucked off (know I'm in the wrong here) so I went and slept in my DD's bed to try get some sleep and stop feeling turned on. DP for work left this morning without saying goodbye I am now worried he thinks I'm being pushy re sex. And maybe I am. I'm just ridiculously frustrated BUT here's the big one, I have been raped in the past so anything about power and consent re sex confuses and panics me and the last thing I want is DP to feel like I am being coercive. AIBU about last night? Is it normal to suddenly go cold during foreplay?
