Attention Huddle Sex Therapists

I have a problem... Since I live pretty far away at least the Huddle gives me some anonymity. At this point I'll disregard the embarrassment because this isn't an issue I can talk about to my friends and family and when I google questions about this the answers vary wildly. So here's the deal...

Not sure what's wrong with me I was hoping some of you could shed some light or let me know if you have similar issues. So I've been single for a little over a year. I've had multiple sexual partners in that span. Some were one night stands and others I actually liked. But they all have one thing in common. As soon as I have sex with them I lose interest immediately. I don't even want to have sex with them again no matter how attracted I believe I am to them. It sounds like I enjoy the chase more than anything but I hate myself for it. It was all but confirmed last week. I was seeing this girl I met on Tinder for about 2 months. Things were going great. I met her parents. She met my friends. We did a weekend trip to Salem, MA for Halloween. The works. I was thinking she would be my girlfriend. However, a couple weeks in she wanted me to go back to her place. I made some bullshit up because I liked her and was worried if we fuged I would ghost her after or lose interest. So we put it off until the Salem trip. The sex was great and the trip was so much fun but after that weekend I have 0 interest in her. I don't even find myself attracted to her anymore...


I'm worried this stems from the fact I was in a relationship for 7 years... Could be misogyny. (although I don't consider myself a misogynist at all) Could be commitment issues. All I know is it's ruining the thought of me ever finding someone and I'm at the point I don't even want to have sex anymore. Help?

 

 

I hope this doesn't seem like ludwig level issues lol...

My educational field here but without clinical experience. 

How old are you? This (only liking the chase) is a young mentality. I was in a seven year relationship and wanted to bang everything that moved after it.

But that took a while. Almost two years, though I had sex here and there before then. 

I think the most important thing to ask yourself is what exactly are you interested in? This is not a question with an immediate answer and the harder you push for one the further from the truth you’ll get. Perhaps you should forwarn future partners your mindset is not ready for a relationship and keep things light.

You were in a relationship for 7 years so what was different about her?

Some people are just this way for life but more likely until a much later age and phase of life. A very high percentage of people are getting married (and divorced to prove the same point) at later ages. This proves the point. And remember no one says you have to be married or with someone. There’s nothing wrong with that.

The right person could come along and distract you no matter how hard you try to avoid them. Then you’ll know they’re worth investing in. It’s only been a year and I’m assuming you’re under 35/40, and would bet it’s a mix between the timespan, age, exploring who you are and what you want in all areas of life and meeting the right person.

As you age the chase will dull. A relationship will define great sex and great sex will not define, signify (or obligate) a relationship.

I had that issue until i grew up.  I loved the chance and once I got in, I’d lose the interest.  Sounds like you missed those days and now you are catching up on banging dif chicks.  Sooner or later u will get it out of ur system and will settle again.

I actually sort of have the same issue. I don't think you ever told me exactly how things went down with your ex, but mine seems somewhat similar. Together seven years, married six, she walked out on me almost exactly a year ago.

I always sort of expected to go through a legendary pussy run if I got divorced (it was a celibate marriage) but I spent the first six months of the divorce keeping the doors open for her to come back. After she started dating some fuger I absolutely despise I gave up on it and started looking around on Tinder. A handful of dates with ok looking girls (I have no game) but the exact same thing, even if I click with someone off the bat by the second or third date I feel myself run full speed into a mental wall. My interest drops off a cliff physically and emotionally and I delete the app and don't bother for a month or two. Rinse and repeat.

Probably unexplored PTSD from my shitty fuging marriage. You probably have similar issues. If you can afford it consider a few sessions with a therapist - I'm looking into it myself. Can't hurt to let a professional help you tinker with your head.

      I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.

      Schrader / Jeremiah mock draft experiment

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
