Looking for an article to help women understand a mans sex drive
Hey Guys,
I'm in need of some help! I'm trying hard to explain to my girlfriend why sex is so important to men. She basically sees the fact that I want sex as the only thing I value in our relationship. This is not true ... i'm trying to explain to her that it is an emotional need as well. It meets an emotional need of affection and being desired and attractive and that denying sex over long periods of time can have detrimental effects on a man. I'm actually getting all of this information from this article: http://hubpages.com/hub/Why-Sex-is-Important-to-Men because i feel it most accurately describes how I feel. Unfortunately as a university student ... i think? she will only accept something a little more factual or even just from a more reputable source than a blogger. I can't find anything ...
Any ideas!?
Thanks so much
Matt

If she's not "She's presenting like a mandrill!" ( I love 64 bits sig!).....point her towards Dr Bermans website for some articles.
Now if I recall, you're fairly fresh out of college? Just trying to put an age on her....I'm guessing low to mid 20's...she should have a fairly active drive now. Granted she's got 15 - 20 years until she hits her prime drive...but still, upper teens and twenties, she should still have a strong sex drive. I don't know what your level of commitment is with her, how long you've been with her, but perhaps if her sex drive is very low...there may be some underlying reasons...going way back in her past. And that may be something you want to closely examine right now..and make a decision on.

We're actually breaking up. We've had quite an up and down relationship ... 7 months. Long story short we're both at very different points in our lives and are both looking for different things. I feel like she didn't understand why sex was so important to me and that it for me is one of the major reasons we are breaking up. Anyways, i guess its more of a heads up for future relationships for her. Thanks for the help
P.s I am moving on!

Consider this from a womans point of view. I promise im not trying to insult you here, but you are young. My suggestion would be to research how to be better in bed, not why its important. Your current relationship is over, but there will be more in the future. Young guys tend to learn a lot of how to be in bed from porn and for most chicks that kind of sucks. So they might not want it as much. I might be way off base but I would imagine its why there are more articles out there on how to be better or more compatible in the sack, then there are articles on why men need sex.

I like this quote!
All joking aside, if she is not ready, it isn't going to happen.
How you make her feel is how she will respond.
Sex will NOT fulfill emotional needs. It will only fulfull the physical need.
Real intimacy is the answer to emotional fulfullment.
Trust me on this one.
