Today, my girlfriend told me that she believes we need to have a less sexualized relationship "in order for us to really work out" we've had sex twice in the six months we've been dating. FML

Sit down and talk to her, show her that your sex life is pretty infrequent, so your relationship clearly does revolve around sex and isn't sexualized. Also ask her why she feels this way, and why she doesn't want to have sex, there could be more of a reason than what she's expressing. Is she taking any medication as well, sometimes they can suppress a person's sex drive. She could also just simply be asexual and has no desire for sex, which might mean you'll have to come up with a plan that works for both of you. It's a less of positive idea, but needs to be said, she could also be cheating. Anyway, if you can't come to a compromise and understanding after communicating, it might be best to rethink the relationship, some people can make it work, but sometimes incompatible sex drives can cause problems. You need to do what's best for both of you if you're too incompatible, which is sometimes just to end it.

That's FML's response to everything isn't it? "Oh! My partner said they don't like pancakes!" "DUMP THEM!" Jesus. Have you never heard of a little thing called "talking about it?"

Not always, there's also 'you should sue!' and 'I hope you mean ex-husband'

Ah now that is true! I had forgotten about them.

This is an important question, I think. I have sex with my partner fairly often, and that doesn't bother me. But when our conversations are too frequently sexual, I start getting pretty uncomfortable. OP really just needs to have a long talk with their GF.

Haha! I said the same thing to my girlfriend, the difference is we were having sex every other day. I agree with what #3 said.
