I think you're right on the money... I have been with my partner for almost two years and at first it was often and as soon as we moved in together it changed to about once a week. we've talked about it and he just prefers to have it about once a week or so. He's a very emotional guy and his anxiety and stress gets in the way of his wanting to be intimate. i think thats a pretty normal reason not to want to have alot of sex.

about the attraction to others... i think that as human beings, no matter the gender, we are invariably going to be attracted to other people. if your partner likes someone else, dont take it personally. that doesnt mean he is less into you or that there is something wrong with you. i believe people do things for themselves. because they feel the need at the moment, and, just to be realistic... we cannot fulfill every desire our partner, or anyone for that matter, has. Now I'm not saying that you should tolerate cheating. If that's not something you are willing to deal with, by all means, DON'T! But if you are in a relationship where you are together because you want to and its a good relationship, maybe those types of situations can be worked through in a way that could be beneficial (in emotional growth) to both parties.
