I get it. It’s often like exercising- happy and glad I did it after!

Every time I give in I never regret it. My body remembers every time. So worth it.

When I’m not in the mood I️tell him I’m going to need extra finessing because my mind and body are not cooperating and he puts in the work not always in the bed, like he’ll do dishes so I️relax or he’ll take care of something else that’s needed.

if my bf asks and i say i’m not feeling it, he says “could you be convinced?” in a playful tone and 9 times out of 10, i end up in the mood

This is a key secret to a healthy marriage. There are so many things we do for each other that we initially don’t want to do. It’s part of the partnership.

This is so true, and having a spouse that makes you feel safe to ultimately say no, allow that “desire” to form in the yes moments.

this sounds educational, but the way some of yall describe it, is giving reall weird vibes. "I dont want it, but I know i won't regret it, so I do it anyways" sounds REALLY weird.

we have open communication and answers for interest in being intimate
- Yes!
- I'm not in the mood but I can be put in the mood
- I'm not in the mood but have no issue helping you out
- No.

There are many other times when we must act our way into feeling instead of feeling our way into acting.

This does not apply when trauma is at play.

Why can’t it just be a no if you’re not in the mood though?

For me, that approach ended up backfiring. I tried engaging even when I wasn’t feeling it, hoping I’d warm up to the moment, but over time it just left me feeling overstimulated and disconnected. It became more like a chore than something that brought us closer, and ultimately it made intimacy feel less appealing overall, not more. I think our bodies and emotional needs respond differently, and that’s okay.

This is called responsive desire and should definitely talked about so much more

This was validating. I have ADHD and sometimes I’m just like I’m not not in the mood but I’m not completely turned off at the thought. It really takes a lot sometimes.

Okay but if it’s not a safe, supportive or healthy partner than you are forcing yourself and that energy rubs off on you too.

I think this is a major defining difference between men and women. this is something that comes natural to men along with our bodies frequent changes into those circumstances.
