And for completeness, the other side of this matters too.
Chronic sexual rejection inside a monogamous relationship is not some small neutral thing. People talk about it like it is merely a difference in libido, but that is often too shallow. Sex is not only a physical act. It is one of the primary ways the body receives confirmation of being wanted, chosen, and erotically recognized by the person who has exclusive access to that part of you.
So when someone is repeatedly rejected at that level, especially over a long period of time, the body often does not process it as a minor inconvenience. It can register as pain. Actual physical pain. Not because the person is needy or immature, but because attachment, sexuality, pair bonding, and nervous system safety are all wired together.
Occasional rejection is normal. Nobody is owed constant access to another person’s body. That is obvious.
But chronic rejection, avoidance, disgust, withdrawal, or repeated sexual refusal inside a supposedly bonded relationship becomes something else. At a certain point, it is no longer just *I am not in the mood.* It becomes a form of relational deprivation. Especially if the rejected partner is expected to remain faithful, regulated, emotionally available, and psychologically intact while being denied erotic connection indefinitely.
That is where people need to be more honest.
If you are genuinely repulsed by your partner, chronically avoidant toward sex, or consistently unable to meet them in that part of the relationship, then the responsible thing is not to trap them inside a dead erotic system and call it commitment. You either address it seriously or YOU leave.
Because sustained sexual rejection is absolutely a valid reason for divorce.
Not because anyone is entitled to sex. But because marriage is not supposed to become a structure where one person gets permanent sexual exclusivity while the other absorbs permanent sexual abandonment.
There’s a TikTok of a girl videoing her bf sweating/looking nervous bc he was about to propose and all these comments from other women about how nervous their men were are absolutely FRYING me 😭
Was talking to a 15 year old at a show a few days ago and he jokingly called me an old man and when I said I was a woman instead of being transphobic he instantly switched to calling me grandma. Inclusively dunked on thank you woke child
love how people just immediately knew what the reference is, not even necessarily the song but the picture that comes with that lyric nightcore video... it really cemented itself as a piece of internet history everybody and their mama knows about it HDHFHG
A message for all you people leaving MAGA -
Fuck You.
It wasn’t the “Grab ‘em by the pussy”,
It wasn’t the mocking of a disabled person,
It wasn’t the thousands of lies,
It wasn’t the $130,000. 00 Porn Star Payout.
It wasn’t the rest of the infidelity,
It wasn’t the 34 felony convictions,
It wasn’t the 400 million dollar jet from Qatar,
It wasn’t the withholding of federal funds to Blue States devastated by wild fires, hurricanes and tornadoes.
It wasn’t the Americans killed and deported,
It wasn’t the illegal wars started without Congressional approval.
It wasn’t the 160 school girls he murdered with a Tomahawk Missile.
It wasn’t the Children He Raped.
It was a fucking AI picture that drove you over the edge.
I will never forgive you.
I will never forget who you are.
You are, and always will be a Trump supporter.
Read the list again.
You Are Shit.
