How can I successfully resolve an issue that neither one of us can come to terms on?
The issue is basically this.

He wants sex alot more than I want. We usually have sex 7 - 10 times a week. About 1/4 of that time, I really don't want sex, but submit to keep the peace, and I usually always end up enjoying myself, but not always. Here is the problem, he usually wants more sex than 7 - 10 times a week. He thinks that I should meet him half-way and find some other creative way to help him achieve orgasm, when he wants sex and I do not. I resent his attitude as I feel that I already meet him half-way.

We cannot resolve this issue to our satisfaction. Last night we had a heated argument again about this exact same thing. In my anger I told him that I would no longer submit to his sexual advances, and he would have a very clear picture on how I was already meeting him half-way. He in turn told me that if he didn't get it from me, he would get it from another woman.

Does anyone have any ideas on how we can move past this issue and resolve it?

isitmeorhim,

It's both..

Read up on the Policy of Joint Agreement, and see if he's agreeable to that..it says..Do nothing until you can both enthusatically agree...

If he goes elsewhere, that is his choice..and would lead to further problems...

Maybe post in the EN forum, it is more active than here...
