Relationship Advice - Partner never wants any intimate time

grumpymummy25 · 10/08/2017 22:31

I've got myself into a stupor and can't work out what is wrong. I've been dating my partner seriously for just short of 10 months now. We live together and he works nights so we hardly get to see each other. Anyway, he never wants sex, always says he's too tired, not in the mood, feels dirty... basically any excuse and now I've gotten to the point where I feel like he's disgusted at me and therefore I feel like shit and have no self confidence now as he constantly mastrubates when I'm out of sight... evidence on the sheets (sorry). Any sexual advances I've made have been rejected.
He says he's tired all the time but goes to work early. I do everything but wipe his a**e, pack him out every day so he never has anything like that to worry about.
The thing is, there is a girl where he works that he want 'innocently' flirting with via text, which I found on his phone early on in the relationship. He assured me that there was nothing in it, but it still upset me and the fact that she works at the same place makes me feel uncomfortable and wondering if the two are connected.
I thought at 10 months in the relationship should still be fresh and exciting but it's stale and making me feel like shit.
Just want to know what anyone on the outside looking in thinks?

It's as shit as it looks from the inside.

You're absolutely right with this. Move on and find someone worth your offers of sex, rather than this boring wanker.

Bin the dude.

Just wondering, what do you usually do to try to get him in the mood?

thestamp · 10/08/2017 22:41

Please stop doing this to yourself. End it and look for someone who actually wants to have a relationship with you x

You should still be in the honeymoon phase and it's already total shit. Get rid and move on. Stop wasting time.

whatsinthebox · 10/08/2017 23:18

You are his housekeeper and servant by the sound of it.

grumpymummy25 · 10/08/2017 23:29

:-( thank you for all your replies. I can't sleep from thinking about where it all went wrong.

I think it went wrong when you agreed to a second date. Get rid and move on.

pnutter · 10/08/2017 23:34

Agree with bin advice , you can do a lot better i have no doubt.

TheNaze73 · 11/08/2017 07:27

He's moved in way too quickly, has his feet under the table & the mystery has gone.

Bin him off, this won't get any better

PamDooveOrangeJoof · 11/08/2017 07:32

Ug he sounds gross. Yes that should be the 'honeymoon period'. Not messaging other women and wanking all over your sheets.
Get rid.

chipmonkey · 11/08/2017 07:46

After 10 months, I wouldn't even waste any time wondering where it went wrong. Just leave. He's using you as an umpaid housekeeper.

mumonashoestring · 11/08/2017 07:49

He's not your partner, he's treating you as a servant. Get rid, life's too short.

BackInTheRoom · 11/08/2017 07:55

Do you know what, I was waiting for you (OP) to reveal 'that someone else' in your post! Sounds like he's emotionally connected to the other woman tbh. Why else is he disinterested in you?! Bin him off however you can and move on. If this was me, I'd be SO sexually frustrated is pretty much sabotage the relationship with my own unhappiness IYKWIM by moaning and banging on 'why don't you like me?!' You don't want that, get rid and good luck OP.

grungeneverdied · 11/08/2017 07:55

10 months and he has already been texting another women flirty stuff. Come on you know the answer

ShatnersWig · 11/08/2017 07:58

It went wrong when you didn't realise this guy was a wanker before he moved in. Kick his sorry arse out immediately if not sooner.

JetBoyJetGirl · 11/08/2017 13:21

I think it went wrong when you moved in with someone you'd only been 'dating' (so not actually even in a relationship with) for not even 10 months!
