Intimacy and sensual moments keep a relationship alive. The very craving to please your partner is crucial to ensure a fun and happy married life. But what happens when you realize your wife might not be into having sex anymore? Every relationship has its ups and downs. So you might wonder if it’s your fault or a possible miscommunication. In reality, various medical, emotional, and even personal reasons stifle a woman’s libidinal needs. Today, we will discuss why your wife may not enjoy your amorous suggestions. Let’s begin.

1. She Is Stressed

Stress can not only harm personal life but also devoids the relationship between fun and causal times. Moreover, stress, tension, and daily life struggles can take away your wife’s wish for intimacy. There are ways to figure out if she’s stressed:

• She is fidgety
• Cannot concentrate on her work or herself
• Her mood is down or negative most of the time
• She doesn’t seem to respond to you flirting 

These are tell-tale signs of your wife in tantamount stress. Such things are not solvable easily, but a bit of help can boost her through! Given that stress tends to strain people mentally and physically, ensuring their safety can aid them in healing.

Now keep in mind that everyone has different coping mechanisms for stress. This means your wife’s coping mechanism could be playing video games or making fruit pies to help calm herself. What you can do is help her manage this overwhelming stress by helping out in small ways.

Take the stress off her shoulders by sharing her chores and giving her little treats to calm her nerves. Moreover, encourage self-care and communication to ease her overwhelming tension. These will let her know that you’re there for her no matter what. In addition, a supportive spouse is a turn-on.

2. She Is Uncomfortable With Intimacy

There are various love languages. While the most common is physical touch, a few could be words of affirmation, baking together, camping, and many more. Now, the reason your wife no longer wants sex and might not be responding to your sexual needs would be her discomfort with intimacy. Some women are not touchy and prefer romance in different ways.

You might wonder why it is so. Some women are more vulnerable and sensitive about touches and prefer to be shown love in other ways. These could come from heartbreaking experiences from evil people or a choice they have made for their comfort.

These limits reduce their sexual desire and make intimacy an option they ignore. Now remember that various reasons behind this, such as the history of abuse, are non-reversible. It isn’t a sign of her disliking herself but only a choice to keep herself safe. However, if her reason for feeling so comes from body image issues and insecurities, encourage her to communicate with you. Let her know that you love her just the way she is and will see to it that her concerns are met with acceptance and aid.

3. She’s Looking To Make Changes in Bed

Lack of libido is sometimes due to being bored in the bedroom or any room you like to get frisky in. Hence, it’s crucial to spice up the relationship. Is she being less responsive when you opt straight for sex instead of foreplay?
Does she initiate something sultry in public, but you ignore it out of embarrassment? These are the cues of what she’s designing in bed. Her disinterest in sex comes from the lack of creativity in the bedroom.

It’s important to explore each other’s sexual fantasies and bring out the wild side of each other. Ask her what she’s into, and see how doing the same gets her to react. Oftentimes, you might feel overwhelmed by fantasies like BDSM, sneaky public foreplay, sex toys, or fooling around in pools.

On such occasions, open an honest discussion with her to find out what makes both of your hearts flutter and what makes either of you feel skittish. Start the changes slowly, and ease yourselves into each other’s sexy fantasies. Soon, you’ll find yourselves wrapped in each other’s arms, feeling fiery and passionate. Doing so will spice up your sex lives and have you both yearn wildly for each other.

4. Her Medication Reduces Her Libido

Your wife could be the sexiest wildcat you’ve ever known. Everything she does makes her look alluring, and you feel seduced by her mere presence. But does it seem that the level of fire has recently reduced? This could be due to her current prescribed medications.

If your wife has a sudden fall in sex drive after starting new medications, that could be what makes your bed cold at night. Such a dip in sexual desire can often taint the relationship. In such moments, these affect her too, so the best way to avert her feeling down is to make her feel comfortable. It starts with understanding which medications can lower her sex drive:

• Anti-depressive medications
• Birth control pills
• Medical Marijuana
• Anti-seizure drugs
• Beta-blockers

Conditions such as menopause, hormonal issues, and sudden weight gain/loss can also affect how active your wife is in bed. Additionally, sexual ailments such as vaginal infections and vaginal dryness can make it hard for women to get in on the action.

Understanding medication conditions helps work together through dry periods in the relationship. Medications are crucial in keeping the love of your life healthy and safe and come with some side effects. In such moments, helping her and supporting this journey will make your life worth it and bring you closer than ever. If she’s also missing the flame due to these side effects, talk to a medical professional and seek couples help. Support and love in marriage, go a long way and bring back the passion like never before.

The Takeaway

In short, medical conditions, mood, and mundane sex life can pull your wife away from the exciting and sultry bond you both have. While certain situations need medical attention, there are many where your help will make her feel loved and close to you. Honest discussions, active support, and love will ensure your sex life is something you both feel excited by.
