What do I do when my partner's not interested in sex?

My partner is not interested in sex. He doesn't like oral or anal or rimming.I miss sex. In the beginning of our relationship he liked mutual masturbation,but that stopped I love him. He said he would not mind if I had a friend with benefits. .

  1. Thank you for opening up about your relationship. Have you talked to your partner about why he is not interested in sex? - Steven (Team Member)

    1. Yes I have. He says it's because of his autism. He's functional and works every day. He says he wishes he was a better partner.

      1. That is great that your partner is aware of this. Have you talked about ways you both could spice up your relationship? - Steven (Team Member)

    2. Alafia (Peace) It sounds like you are in a tough position. I understand the need for intimacy and the power of touch. How do you feel about finding a friend with benefits? Would that even solve the problem? How about starting with spooning? Smal steps. Khafre (H-I-V.net Team Member)
