GH, this is from a while ago, but you asked about women tend to be "cyclical" when it comes to their drive. I don't think this pertains just to the menstrual cycle. IMO life itself affects the sex drive. I remember streaks where H and I would be sexually intimate very often, more than once a day, numerous times throughout a week. I remember streaks where there would be stretches of nothing. I remember thinking about him all day long, and when we finally saw each other at night he was crabby or something happened and I was crabby, big mood killer. There are times when it is basically physically improbable to have intercourse during a menstrual cycle, but sex/ML isn't just intercourse. Right??? What caused our streaks? probably me. I based sex/ML on my emotional need, unfortunately. If I didn't feel emotionally close to H, if he didn't fill my love tank emotionally, I didn't want to fill his tank either. Vicious cycle, stupid me. I know better now, and I hope I can get a chance again. But YOUR W, is she playing a game with you? GH, lose 3 pounds and we can have great sex again. GH, get a haircut and we can have sex again. Or whatever. It's not you GH, she gave you some excuses for what is bothering her, but it's something else going on within herself but she is not admitting that to you or to herself.
Get back on track, just like you reminded yourself. You are responsible for your own happiness. Get it? now the next time I get brave enough to come over here and read about all you happy Piecers, I hope to find you a happy GH!
Live your life while you are still living. Riding the trail less traveled.
