Lack of sex relationship

I’m just asking for some advice
I’m 22 and my partner 33 we have been together 2 years and we have a beautiful baby girl together I have a daughter from previous relationship also.
From the beginning our sex lives have been some issue there’s not a lot of it and when we get to it’s always the same position and same experience.. I’ve brought the issue up many times and he claims it’s just because we now live together it’s not a big thing to have much sex but I’m finding that he is masturbating almost every day? It’s a problem to me the lack of sex as we are still pretty early into the relationship I said if nothing changes we will have to separate as I feel he is not sexually attracted to me otherwise he would want that intimacy still.
We must have sex once a month twice at a push and it’s quite depressing knowing my man prefers masturbating instead.

It’s a tough choice as when I bring the topic up he does say not all relationships are about sex but he hasn’t really had a long term relationship he has been with many partners before and maybe that’s what he prefers and does struggle to see the excitement maybe I need to try initiating it more but to be honest I wouldn’t know how to start Lol

So, the only novelty he can imagine is a different woman. Not all 'relationships' are about sex to him precisely because of this. Errr.....change your hair colour, style your clothes differently......not much you can do really if you would prefer to be loved for just being you!

'Not all relationships are about sex'. So why masturbate, why watch porn, why saw 'a couple of women' during your short break up? Confused.

OP, I'm big on ultimatum and standing by it. You tell him to sort this unacceptable behaviour ( and that's me being subtle with my choice of words), or this is the final DONE!

Gosh you're way too young to be in a not enough sex relationship, why is he making you conform to this?
