His ego is bruised, he will get over it. And if he doesn't, and can't realize he needs to make you feel special by being spontaneous and romantic, he's not ready for this serious a relationship anyhow. He needs to work on getting you relaxed first! He is approaching this bass ackwards.

It does sound like your hormones spiraling, and I don't know your past but if there is a under lying issue with you and intimacy, you need to talk to some one. These things don't go away on their own. Coming from some one with experience!

Neither one of you are horrible people, you are young and the first couple years trying to figure out how you mesh together is always the toughest. You need to come together and get through this as a team.
I am getting married next March and trust me when I say we have been through some pretty trying times. You never know, just hang in there and don't give up or change yourself (unless you feel yourself you need to grow, which in all truthfulness couldn't hurt any of us )

Live life now, go with your gut.
We are just hear to listen, be here for you, and maybe share an experience or two since most of us have been where you are. Who cares what any of us have to say about your relationship. That is between you two, don't let any one make you question yourself or what you've got.
Him jumping to conclusions does not automatically make HIM a cheater either. It makes him imperfect (like the rest of us) and insecure. We're all guilty of letting the little green monster of jealousy take the wheel from time to time!

I don't want you to feel like I am sticking up for him, I am just trying to think about this from both sides because I have two brothers lol
The differences between men and women are so fascinating and making a relationship work between ANY two people is a lot of hard work.

Cheer up! It is not the end of the world, you are a beautiful caring woman and I hate to read when you are upset.

I will give you a little tip though, next time he calls don't let him see that you are visibly upset. That is what he wants right now, because he is hurting. Just tell him you're a little busy right now and to give you a call back when he feels like rejoining you as an adult partner to work this out. Ask him to read up on some of the side effects of your pill, and even some things on depression.
Sex comes and goes, changes like the weather in a long term relationship. Timing can get all screwed up... one is ready to go and the other is so far from "there".
But it is worth it in those moments when you come together and it all works out

That is why the key is to find a best friend for those quiet, event less moments called "life"
