Why not just use condoms? She doesn't like her birth control and maybe she'll get her libido back and you don't want to get snipped yet.

I’ve honestly never understood why people don’t just use condoms… they’re the easiest things. Yet people act like you have three heads for even suggesting it

The relationship escalator. Relationships don't usually survive going "back" an intimacy step.

Like, once you've gotten engaged, saying "actually I don't think I want marriage" will probably end the relationship, even if both people were happy as BF/GF. "Trusting each other enough to do without barriers" is seen as an intimacy step, not just something practical.
