How frustrating is it when you know you're being silly but you can't help it!? Me & my partner do have regular sex, 3 times a week probably, I'd like it more as my drive is higher but it's not a big issue. Yesterday I felt as though my period was coming..I noticed the signs - dull back ache, slightly irritable etc. We had sex early Sunday morning, so I thought I'd tell him I was due imminently - hoping that might spark something to happen before aunt Flo came (I never outwardly initiate as he has pressure anxiety, hense me telling him instead of jumping him). In my head, if we didn't have sex last night or this morning...that would mean 7-9 days of no sex by the time my period is over. I thought him knowing that would make him want me...went to bed naked..nothing happened and I felt disappointed..then this morning, nothing. Now I've just come on. I can't help but feel really frustrated...and also undesired - which I know is my self esteem talking but surely if you know your girlfriend is gonna be out of action for a week, you'd get in there while you can!? I'm now feeling quite grumpy, I haven't said anything to him about it because I don't want to look like a grumpy bratty sex pest! I just needed to get it off my chest, I know I'm being unnecessarily grumpy but I can't help it 🤣

I don't think you are being unreasonable as you haven't projected anything on him?
If you were giving him a hard time then yes but you are just giving yourself the hard time.
My late wife had a much lower sex drive than me (most of the time) but I remember a few times when she did the same as you and I was delighted to oblige 😃

On the one hand I'm wondering how he'd take it if you weren't up for it? But then I'm wondering if the 2 of you need to take it as a given that sex can't happen because of a period? Sure, you might want to avoid on heaviest days, but have you both considered it as an option?

Well it was pretty warm last night, so going to bed naked might not have been the clearest message…

No way on earth would we be going without sex for 7-9 days for a period. We would both be climbing the walls.
