How do you deal with consistent rejection from your S/O?

We are kinda in the same situation, own place, no children and I've been married 4 years.

For me personally, I went through stages. In the beginning, for a long time, being rejected made me feel ugly, insecure and worthless. After that I went through a period of resentment. Now I sort of try to accept it and not take the rejection too personally.

People keep on saying we need to talk but sometimes, even after so many discussion, things just don't change. After being here on Reddit, I realized that some people just don't think about sex that much and they don't need it as much as I do, and that's normal. I have to accept that.

Now I just focus on taking care of myself. I think I can do that and I'm just tired of letting my horniness (lol) affect this relationship because it's quite good apart from that. If sex is great, this relationship would be perfect and perfection just doesn't exist in this world ❤
