Bf used to be the kind that would see sex as a huge stress reliever, but these days its hibernating. I have always had a very high sex drive, and mine increases during times of stress so the sudden drop in activity has me freaked out, i don't want to end up in another sexless relationship (he knows its a deal breaker for me too).
My question to the men...do you notice a literal slump in all things sex related when you are stressed? do things go back to normal when the stressors have passed? Has anyone lost their drive and never really regained it?
I don't want to go into detail of what the stressors are but combined we are dealing with 3 of the top five biggest stressors in life.
Yes. It's probably the biggest impact on me. Especially financial stress.
Same here. I did the tech startup game for many years. More recently, I've had a bunch of job instability problems. I'm not sure which impacts your libido more.... financial stress or extreme job stress. When I was a hormone-driven 20-something, neither impacted me much. As I aged, it's a much bigger impact.
There are times when the woman is the stressor. Kinda like trying to achieve zen calmness while having someone nagging at you. I find that exercise and alone time help tremendously.

Im sure im a total stressor too but im more zen when i get laid. Its a vicious cycle
I'm an RN and even when I don't show it, stress can affect me in all areas.
I tend to deal with a lot of people, sometimes unruly patients, and yes it can get to you.
