I think the bf may be getting bored?

I have a feeling my boyfriend is getting bored with me. Most of the time, I end up being the one asking to, ... you know. Do the deed. My boyfriend is in his early 20's, and it just seems like he would have a much more active drive, but there are many times he shoots the idea of getting intimate down. He told me that the reason was that he didn't want it to get to a point where all there was in our relationship was sex, but I still worry about his reluctance. Thoughts?

Update:

Also, he said he's noticed that we have a 'routine' for what we do, and I must not be seeing it, but wow. It's kind of a shocker to find all of these things out.

Update 2:

We still do pretty frequently, but the 'routine' thing phased me. Quite a bit. It is just hard to understand how I can keep this going if, yes, we aren't even married yet. I don't know how much variation I can throw out for another, well, for the rest of my life if he's already feeling kind of blah now.

Update 3:

I kind of figured it'd be a guy's dream come true to have a girlfriend who wanted it just as bad as he did, but I almost feel bad for it now.

    many things could be affecting a guys libido. it could be stress at school or at work. there could be an unresolved conflict between the both of you.

    the problem with whats happening between you two is your starting a power struggle.

    where the one who doesn't want sex is in power or gets to decided when it happens. that can create other problems such as resentment.

    you need to talk to him about it, try to find out if the problem is with you or something else. it may also be a good idea to set a "date night" where you will do the deed..

    He's right to an extent. But I still feel you two need to talk about things. Where things are going and how you are both feeling in the relationship etc etc. Also spice it up, go on dates to different places fun places that you haven't been before, if you have the money go on vacation together or do something adventurous in your area that you haven't ever tried but would like to. And there are other relaxing and intimate things you can do together like going to a spa or taking a yoga class and having him be your partner...I know it sounds corny but you would be surprised. Whatever fits to your relationship try it out.

    Source(s): Spontaneity and being adventurous is what keeps me and my fiance strong...aside from our love, its part of the reason I want to marry him.

    How old are you?............it sounds like he is the one with the problem, maybe low sex drive, or problems or hang ups about his equipment and trying to blame it on other reasons. Talk with him and let him know that you need him not only to increase the frequency of it happening but for him to initiate it more often as well. tell him that you are open to try new things, but that yall have to communicate. If things do not get better after that, then move on, because something is not right there. Good luck!

    It is possible that he is losing interest in you... Certainly seems odd that a guy that young isn't more interested in the physical aspects of the relationship. If it isn't you, however, this could also mean that he has alot on his mind. Stress can cause a lowered sex drive! Talk to him about it!

    What the hell. Maybe he's gay. Seriously, your not even married yet and he is tired of sex with you. Your the girl, it's your job to shoot him down. E-mail me if you need a hand.

    Uh oh.

    Well, maybe he is getting bored...maybe you should stop asking. No offense, hon.

    Maybe you should wait until he asks.

    Talk to him about it. You'll get answers, trust me.

    Ask him bluntly, "Are you getting bored with me, or something?" Or something along those lines...and then ask whatever comes to mind.

    Good luck.

    Make yourself less available to him for a while and see if he notices. If he doesnt, maybe its time to move on to someone who appriciates you more.
