Hi Miss Catherine,
Thank you for replying to me so quickly and giving my situation a preliminary examine. Please let me clarify so that my desires can be a bit more clear.
At this point, I would like to:
1. Compel him to open his ears and listen to me/obey when I ask him to come back to me as my boyfriend, as well as believe me when I say in full truth that I'm ready and willing to do whatever I need to do to make him happy with me in order to not lose the life we have together.
2. Overhaul the decisions he's made about "wanting to be single right now, grow on his own without me, and make his own mistakes".
3. Keep him from either wanting to or physically being able to engage sexually with other girls until we reconcile in the above way.
I don't want him to sit quietly at home starved and resentful. I'm fully aware that it's my fault things went south this time because I neglected him. I understand that if he comes back, there's work I need to do within myself to justify it.
I think I need to apologize here because I conflated feelings and circumstances from last time with this one. I shouldn't have compared him to a dog, that was wrong of me. I'll place that on my lingering anger.
I described him becoming antsy negatively because last time, he left because, in his words, he "tried to ignore his needs, for me, until he couldn't any more." But there was no prior understanding or conversation about his needs between him and I last time. He simply left and I was taken by surprise and much angrier. I was made aware of his desires after we reconciled.
THIS time, he had made clear his wants, but I dragged my feet and hoped they would fade until I was beyond ready. It was selfish and stupid and I fully acknowledge that. I was younger and thought I had more time than I did. I also was not as calm and peaceful as I should have been on a daily basis due to leftover anger.
And you're right- he actively seeks sex, because he tells me it's simply part of his nature to be flirty and promiscuous and he's tired of repressing it. I was angry and insecure and allowed that to starve him both at him and outside of it.
I'm not blaming the other women. I'd just prefer him not sleep with them until we're reconciled and together again. He's very eager to, and very attractive and dynamic, so it's never hard for him. That's always been where I've struggled, and why I'm eager to use the semen I gathered. I've successfully brought him back, but never without keeping him from having sex before.
Primarily, all I want is for him to want to come back so we can work on things, meaning I give him the intimacy he wants at home and the exploration he's been asking me for. In order to stay together, I'm willing to try, do and talk about whatever, as well as let my anger fully go, as long as we're together. But he needs to believe that and want to come back. I would prefer this happen by or shortly after "our" birthday, which we call it bc my birthday July 25th is three days after his, July 22nd.
Secondarily, through text and conversation he's told me that at this point, he feels like he "needs to be his own man, needs to be single, doesn't want a relationship at all right now, and wants to be free to make his own mistakes." I would like to remove the blockages of those decisions from his mind so that he wants to return to the comfort of our apartment and having me by his side.
Lastly, I would like to be able to stop him from either wanting to or physically being able to sleep with other women until we fully reconcile and I'm his girlfriend again, like I explained above. If he does manage it, I would like the experience to be painful and difficult for him either physically or emotionally.
Deadening his sexuality overall would maybe be nice, later, but I felt like it's a lot of work to undertake so quickly for this much pent up resentment that he has for me about this. And I don't feel like it's fair to overhaul that much of his personality because I'm unwilling to change. Maybe that's ironic coming from me, but I just want him to want to explore with me by his side again. It was an option that he gave me when I was too resentful and blind to take it.
Eventually, down the line, I will probably need magical intervention for myself to become more naturally okay with him having outside lovers and to keep them from interfering in the home or being a factor when I want to take a break from letting others in. I'm a very territorial person when it comes to intimacy and it's honestly relieving to hear that that's possible, because my territorialism mixed with his promiscuity has caused a lot of the issues we're dealing with today.
I want to reiterate that I don't plan to lie or play act- I really, truly just want him back so that we can explore whatever he wants TOGETHER. I'm fully willing and ready to give him what he wants. I just need HIM to want that from ME, and to believe that it will happen.
I hope that helps. If you'd like me to explain anything in better detail I will do that for sure. Thank you again for being willing to help me. I do love this man and the parts of our relationship that don't suffer from these sexual issues are the best parts of me. I can't imagine my life without him.
PS I should probably mention that even though he's said he won't come back to being my boyfriend, he's still very willing to come see me in the place where we lived together and still willing to spend time and engage physically with me, which is how I got the semen recently. He said he still loves me and wants me, he just doesn't want to be my BOYFRIEND. I won't take anything less and I don't want to wait months and months and months for him to decide he's done having his single fun and wants to come home.
