What would you do if your partner has low libido and yours is soaring high?Libido came from the Latin word libīdō, which means “‘lust, desire’”. It is the sexual drive of a person. Levels of libido are different between men and women. It is I think the universal knowledge that men have high level of libido than women. Studies show that 40% of the women complain of lack of sex drive while men who has sexual dysfunction are only about 30%. But why with such difference? According to LowLibido.org, the reason is that female libido is much more complex than male libido. While male libido is mainly physically rooted, female sex drive can be influenced by a number of factors – both physical and emotional.
Low libido maybe reasonably comprehensible with women, but how about when the table is turned? Your boyfriend or husband has low libido and yours is high. This phenomenon may imply a problem in your relationship.
What should you do about it?
Probably the first thing to do is talk to your partner. Tell him that he needs to talk to his doctor. This is needed in order to ensure that a medical problem is not the cause for the low libido. The cause for low libido may turn out to be simply a vitamin deficiency or hormonal imbalance. If no medical problem is found, it may be a good decision to seek the advice of a psychologist or therapist. They may help examine and resolve underlying problems in your lives. If relationship factors and sexual intimacy are predominant for the cause of low libido, then it may be wise to see a sex therapist. You and your partner will discuss your relationship and sexuality during the therapy sessions and may even be assigned “homework” exercises that will help you improve sexual communication and intimacy.

Passion and intimacy are vital components in a relationship. We must not take for granted these two.

It is absolutely more women suffer from low libido rather than men though men also suffer from this. If your partner has this treat, then you are high, you just have to understand him/her because even him/her doesn't know what happened. Best thing to do is to help him/her getting out from that shit libido. Consult a physician if necessary and take alternatives herbal medicines.
