It’s very common for relationships to go through phases where one or both partners lose interest in sex.
But when a relationship lacks passion or intimacy for a long time, it can start to cause emotional distance and frustration. Perhaps the closeness between you has faded. Maybe your partner pulls away or no longer wants to cuddle – let alone be sexually intimate. You might feel confused, hurt, or rejected because of it.
Or perhaps you’re the one who doesn’t want to be intimate anymore. It might be that you don’t feel loved, respected, or emotionally connected – so physical closeness feels out of reach.
It’s important to remember that intimacy isn’t just about sex. It’s about the emotional and physical closeness that makes a romantic relationship feel special and connected – something deeper than what we share with anyone else.
