Reconnecting?

My boyfriend and I are having a lot of trouble right now 'getting on the same page' sexually/physically. I recently came back after being far away for over a month and am not back to being my old self (the way I was before I left, the way I was during all of the rest of our relationship) yet. We're not having sex, we're barely touching, we're both nervous, we're both uncomfortable. Things are just getting worse and worse each day because he has become impatient and frustrated with me.


We have both expressed feeling "dis-connected" physically from each other. Does that make sense? We still love each other, we still want to be together in our relationship, but our bodies are disconnected right now for whatever reason and we need help coming back to each other. Does anybody have any ideas for reconnecting? Not just sex. Reconnecting with each other intimately, physically, to bring us back to all the wonderful sex we once had? Please help if you can. I've been searching on "intimacy" and "reconnecting" for ideas but haven't come up with anything yet. :(

Why not reconnect mentally by rehashing some old memories and discussing the funny moments you have had together?

Welcome to the board, iv-aingeal.

Could the circumstances around your being away for the month have anything to do with what's going on? Was there a chance that either of you was unsure if your relationship would continue?
