My man turned me down when I asked to be intimate: Advice?

You’re just being overly sensitive. It’s fine if a man says no & for men not to want sex all the time.

Some men are weirded out by the enormous pregnant belly and thinking they might hurt the baby. My husband did for a minute during my first pregnancy, but I had been reading all about sex while pregnant and told him the baby would be fine. After that, as long as I wasn’t physically in pain from the pregnancy, we did it all the time up until the birth of all four of our kids. Just talk to him. Ask him if he’s concerned, etc.

My hubs started declining towards the end of my pregnancy too, it happens :woman_shrugging:t3:

Welcome to the world of Men lol.

We were together for 16.5 years and married for 14 years… he told me “no” under 5 times! I am being drop dead serious!
Yes, it’s alright for males to say no too! Just the same as females! The author is not saying her male isn’t allowed to say no! She’s just being cautious and worrying bc I guess him saying no is prob something very rare! Like it was in my marriage!
Girl… it possibly did hurt your feelings a tad bit with you not usually being sexual very very often.
If I were you, I’d either ask him what the diff is this time, to make him not want to… or act like it simply didn’t bother you one bit and then when y’all go to bed, lay right beside of him and take care of yourself! I’d make sure he knows exactly what you’re doing, too!
If he tries to join in once he knows what you’re doing, it’s very possible that he just wasn’t in the mood when he declined.
Of course you can either chose to let him join in or chose to continue by yourself and tell him he opted out, so you’re taking care of yourself, by yourself this time!
I wouldn’t flip the fu€k out on him over it right now, though, that’s for sure.
If something big is going on, whatever it could be, you’ll soon figure it out anyways.

Different people have different sex drives, and it’s okay for either partner to say ‘no’ for pretty much any reason. Nobody should be obligated to have sex. And it’s not true that men want to have it all the time, regardless of their age.

Dont feel bad girl, it happens. Yall just have to communicate…

Did you ask him to have sex or did you initiate by kissing, touching ect… I know if my husband asks me the answer is no. However, if he starts kissing and touching and making an effort the response is different.

It’s okay to say ‘no’

Maybe he is worried as you are further along have you asked him? I think your over reacting and maybe you should talk to him maybe he is scared too you do know sex can bring on labour and baby isnt fully cooked yet :thinking: my advice talk to him!

So it’s okay when you don’t want sex all the time but when he doesn’t there is something wrong with him? Gtfoh.

What a stupid dilemma to have

As old person, Sex isn’t everything - It is making love with the one you love with whole heart. Old Fashioned. Having a truly loving, caring husband and knowing he is faithful is worth everything.

Everyone is saying no means no and that’s right, however she’s sounding more like she’s self conscious. It’s not sounding like she’s trying to force him or anything lol. It just seems like she needs a little reassurance because she may be sensitive and emotional right now so little things like that may have her overthinking

As a mom to 6 I can say that with my 3rd I was 8months pregnant and had sex….it was the worst experience ever! We ended up with a bed full of blood!!! After that I was to scared to have sex while that far along in my pregnancies.

I completely understand were your coming from! Its not the no means no, its a self Conscious thing & wanting to feel wanted & sexy & beautiful from your s/o!

Guys can be just not in the mood. Same as us. Have you ever turned down sex? It’s no different.
You’re also 8 months pregnant & that’s usually not a turn on for guys. They’re worried about hurting you or the baby and nothing looks the same.
Rest up, you’re going to need it in 2 months :rofl:

Do you have sex with him every single time he asks? Even when you don’t feel like it? I highly doubt it. He is allowed to say no just like you.

My soon to be husband doesn’t like to have sex all the time either. He wants affection more than sex. He’s 25. You accept it and take care of yourself or ask him for help taking care of it. Talk to him. Nobody can help solve your issues with your partner except yourself and your partner girl.

You gave it to him once a week now your complicated? Bahaha

Maybe not comfortable having sex while you’re pregnant some guys aren’t

Not everyone is in the mood all the time, regardless of age or sex. That’s what masterbation is for 🤷 Being this far along you may want to consider taking care of things yourself. I wouldn’t take it personally, he prob is afraid of hurting the baby, or just simply not in the mood and that’s okay too.

Maybe he’s worried about hurting you or the baby? Guys are weird about pregnancy.

Its your hormones. I went through the same thing when I was pregnant with my son. Especially right at the end of my pregnancy. Thankfully I was never turned down but we always had a very very healthy/active sex life to begin with. Lol
Dont let the hormones get you in your feelings. Just take care of yourself, respect his answer, and when he’s ready im sure he will let you know. Lol

My partner wouldn’t have sec with me in the last trimester either lol think they think they’ll hurt the baby xx

Could be just that your pregnant. I know it got weird for my hubs at the end when I was huge and you could legit see the baby moving in there! :rofl::rofl: But it does make you self-conscious.

She’s pregnant and she’s probably feeling self conscious it blows my mind that there’s women on here shaming her for asking a fucking question. Like you’ve never been there. we’ve all been there. stop acting self righteous like you’re Above this question. If you don’t have an answer that’s going to help her then just shut the fuck up and keep scrolling. why are you shaming her does that make you feel better about yourself? So many miserable ugly hearted women on here.

my bf only likes sex 1-3x a week and he tells me no more often than yes.Not all guys are horndogs like media portrays :roll_eyes: but I do think this is 90% hormones

Yeah, I would give him a break. Once my husband felt the baby move while getting down, and was so creeped out! I didn’t blame him.

imagine if a guy posted my wife said no and I’m mad. yeesh double standards

My fiance wouldn’t have e sex like the last 2 months I was pregnant Nd it was for all good reasons in both our eyes. He was worried about early labor, he was worried about squishing my belly to much. I would almost bet money it’s one of those kind of things

My husband’s not a fan of having while pregnant. He’s weird. With that said, if he tells me no, which has never happened, I have to respect his boundaries.

Me and my partner don’t have sex. We’re flat out having sex once every 2 months he’s 32 and 39.

It gets a little weird at ty6at point poking around in there. He might just not like it I didn’t want to either.

If you are ok having sex once or twice a week he can be as well. Equality remember? We are all human.

My man is 32 and doesn’t want sex all the time. Im going on 45 and I want it more than he does

Some times their fear of hurting you can cause them not to want to.

I love it when all you women get pissed when the same gambit you’ve all been pulling for a millenia gets turned back on you. Suck it up ladies… you all want guys to be knights in shining armor on Facebook, yet half of you got knocked up by a loser and turned down countless “decent” dudes in your time… it’s a new world, and guys are learning to be more selective. Want a good man? Be a good woman. Wanna play games? Enjoy your fuckboy and fighting for child support 9 months later…:smirk:

He don’t want to poke the baby.

We stopped having sex when I was 32 weeks I would try to get him to and he would say no. Finally admitted it’s because our son was bigger and he could feel him move around I was hurt at the time but I understood.

Self stimulation :kissing_heart: you can thank me later …

Just talk to him tell him it made u feel A little insecure and ask him if he just wasn’t in the mood or if he’s worries about the baby or if he’s not attracted to you because of size. Just talk and I’m sure he will explain u may be over thinking it and he just wasn’t in the mood then. Try again if he says no again then ask why

We have the same fight. But now it seems his “I like making you cum” has turned into the 3 pump chump. I wouldn’t have asked if he wanted to. Action speak louder than words. My husband is scared he is going to make me go into labor. But I don’t see that as a bad thing. I am almost 36 wks.

Hes probably afraid to hurt u or baby n it can bring on.Labour to

Good lord woman it happened once. And you said yourself you normally have sex 1 to2 times a week. So to answer the question how can he be perfectly okay with that? Is because that’s what’s normal for you both. :woman_shrugging:

My husband loved me when i was pregnant, he constantly wanted to do it. But i think for men its either they wanna do it everyday because they love that youre pregnant with them and that turns them on, or they dont want to do it at all because theyre too scared to hurt the baby lol. Either way is totally normal

In my experience a man only turns done sex for 2 reasons. He is stressed and not in the mood or cheating. If you have no infidelity issues in the relationship then he is probably just really stressed about something. Try talking to him it may help. Good luck!

They get like this when the pregnancy progresses, it seems to me that they fear hurting the fetus.

Some men do not feel comfortable that late in the pregnancy. He has feelings too and doesn’t want to hurt you or the baby .hes better then the men who want sex up to the time you do have the baby and then right after

Maybe he’s afraid that prostaglandins and oxytocin might induce early labor?

A lot of men do t like having sex when your that far along my husband didn’t so I just pleasured myself till he was comfortable with having second again (after I had my tubes tied) 5 weeks after I had my baby lol

I have one word for this - masturbation

You’re 8 months pregnant…
And you’re complaining he turned you down? He might not be in the mood, he’s used to you not wanting it. He also might not want to have sex with you because You’re Super PREGNANT! Not all men think its hot. Some towards the end just don’t want to. You know sex induces labor, right?
Plus you practically rarely had sex to begin with :roll_eyes::woman_facepalming:t3:

What kind of job does he do? Construction? Auto Repair? He could just be tired. Is he working long hours? You are 8 months pregnant…maybe he is afraid of harming the baby. Ask him. Women can say NO…so men should be allowed to say NO.

Lots of men don’t want to have sex a lot. It’s not uncommon. You are just hormonal from being pregnant. You can not get mad at your partner for saying no just because you feel like having sex, trust me I have been there. It would be different if you had a really active sex life and all of a sudden your partner said no but since only your hormones have change your want for sex there is no point in getting upset. But you should talk to you partner and tell them how you feel and maybe there is other ways they could help you relieve some of that want that doesn’t necessarily involve intercourse.

It’s a pregnancy thing most likely. The farther you get the more he may worry about hurting you or the baby
