Sexually stuck

I've been in a great relationship for about a year and a half. I love my girlfriend, but I
don't really want to have sex much. I work a lot (a lot) and at night I'm exhausted and
just want to go to bed. When we don't have sex my girlfriend often...

cries and says that I
don't desire her anymore, and that breaks my heart and makes me feel as if I'm a bad boyfriend or deficient in some way. I really want to want to have sex and I really want to fulfill her needs and desires in this relationship. I figured that it was just my work schedule and the fact that I don't like most of my jobs, but recently I've been out of state on a more artistic job. I'm surrounded by absolutely stunning women, a few of whom have come on to me. I politely told them that I have a girlfriend and we're all still friends, however there is one woman who I am completely and viscerally attracted to. I can't explain the attraction, but I find myself completely drawn to her, and it's clearly reciprocal. Nothing has happened, but suddenly my sex drive is back and I find myself fantasizing about kissing this woman and sometimes more. Sooooo. I feel like shit, but it makes me wonder if my relationship isn't working out. Part of me really feels like jumping ship and running away with this other woman and part of me says that if I do this situation will just repeat itself a year from now with a new other woman. Basically I don't know if this is a sign that my relationship is on the rocks or if this is fairly par for the relationship course. Any help is greatly needed and desired.

It is normal for you to be attracted to and fantasize about other women, as long as you don't go through with it. Chances are, what you see in the other woman is purely sexual, since you say you fantasize about her that way. I can tell that you really care about your girlfriend in that you feel bad that you don't feel like giving her sex every night. Working all the time is exhausting. You do have to take the time to give it to her though, otherwise she's going to feel like you don't love her anymore and you no longer think she is sexy and worth having sex with. She will also be more likely to stray. There are also other ways to let her know that you still think that she's sexy. Flirt with her, grab her ass, tell her she's beautiful. It is important to keep your love life alive no matter what. Maybe sometimes she'd be just fine with taking the reins in bed. Alot of women actually prefer being on top because it gives them control and often makes it easier for them to orgasm, me included. If you don't even feel like you desire your girlfriend anymore, however, maybe you should reconsider your relationship. But don't break up with her and automatically just start going out with the other woman, because rebound relationships don't usually work out. You need time to get over the last one first. It'd be best for both you and the other woman, because it's not fair to her if you're not ready.

Big deal if you're attracted more to this woman than your own. It doesn't matter what anyone in this world says, there will always be somebody better looking than the person that you're with and odds are there will always be somebody that is a better match for you than the person you are with now. There are a million people out there. Maybe you're just falling out of love with your current girlfriend. Or maybe you two need to try some new sexual techniques. Anything to keep you two together. And just to get this other woman out of your mind and out of your sight, tell her to buzz off. The worst thing in the world is regret. Don't set yourself to regret by cheating on your girlfriend. If you love her, then show it and proove it to her. Stay away 100% from this other woman, no matter how beautiful she is because to me, it sounds like there could be a potential affair.
