Hi Tracey,
I understand it’s a sensitive subject but I believe that when you are intimate and in a relationship with someone, it is best to share your feelings in a candid (but kind) way. Chances are, if he is behaving in such overtly (stereotypically) “female” ways, you aren’t the first person who has questioned his sexuality. It’s possible he simply has a lower sex drive than you. And there are heterosexual men out there who use a lot of products, invest time on grooming, etc. A guy I dated years ago was very “metrosexual” – he had more beauty products in the medicine cabinet than I did, and he loved to buy clothes (both for himself and me), etc. But he was straight and today is married (to a woman) with a young son.
Coming from a single woman, this may sound a bit flippant, but you’re only 3 months in and to be honest, you don’t sound like you really like him all that much. Yes, you point out his good qualities, but for every good quality, there are 3 more that don’t suit you. Add to that the sexual incompatibility (and let’s face it, sex typically becomes less frequent as the “honeymoon” period wears off) and it’s hard to see much reason why you wouldn’t cut bait and wait for a man who really gets your motor runnin. Just my two cents. If you’re interested in working it out with him, communication will be key, imo.
Good luck!
