I have ovarian cancer that has spread and am doing chemo at the moment. Because of where some of the cancer is located having sex can be really painful. My boyfriend of over a year has been really sexual towards me lately while also telling me he doesn’t think I’m attracted to him. I’ve explained multiple times in multiple ways that it’s not that I’m not attracted to him - it’s that my body is going through a really hard thing doing chemo and sex is really painful. We’ve had to stop in the middle of sex because the pain is so bad I’m in tears, yet he still asks me every night to have sex. I told him today that I really need him to understand that he’s putting a lot of pressure on me with it and that I need him to not because it leaves me feeling guilty and like I’m not enough when these things happening to my body are out of my control. He told me that what I said upset him and made him think even more so that I’m not attracted to him and then asked me if there was someone else. He said I shouldn’t be sending him spicy photos if I feel this way even after I explained to him that I send them because I still want to feel sexy and connected to him it’s just that physically I can’t as much right now. AITAH?
