<human>: Some background: when my girlfriend and I started dating about a year and a half ago we had sex very regularly, maybe two or three times a week. Now things are very different. I think we only have had sex once in the past month. 

I try to initiate pretty often and then I always feel bad and dejected after I am turned down. She says that she feels pressured and she really doesn't like that all. In fact she has told me that it makes her not want to have sex later, even when she would otherwise want to. 

I really don't want her to feel pressured. I hate that I make her feel this way and I understand why she would. I also do not like how I feel after being rejected time after time. It feels like she is not attracted to me. I really just want to be intimate with her and show her how much I love her. 

This morning we talked about it a bit. We are going to talk more later today. How can I let her know the way I feel without coming off like a total jerk and pressuring her even more?

Thanks for reading and your help.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
