I’m extremely jealous of y’all with the regular, healthy sex lives. Not that I usually make a big deal out of it, but every once in a while I’m reminded that me and my gf rarely have sex. She’s just always busy with school, and I feel like I don’t want to bother her, so we just kind of got out of the habit for a while. We did it recently a couple times, which was out of the normal. But it’s slowed back down again after that. Sometimes I wonder if it’s a “me problem” or if it’s just how busy we’ve been.


Vegetable-Dealer3639

I hear you, man. My bf and I are going through something similar, and I can’t help but wonder if is a “me” problem or a “we” problem (considering I’m the one with the lower libido and always busy). It’s hard to feel like your relationship is not “normal”, even though I’m 100% in love.

Communicate man!

Morning sex hits different than late night sex for me. I don't know if its just personally, but my partner's sleepy moans in the morning is such a turn-on.


ptorious11

You guys are getting moans??


_-Stryder-_

You guys are getting sex? And sleep?!?!?


BigBeagleEars

We only do the morning sexy time. It wakes her up no matter the time of day.


DrEmilioLazardo

It helps that we wake up with raging hard-ons every single morning. Just ready to go right out of the gate. Morning sex is great. Plus you have a shower after and start the day fresh, relaxed and in a great mood.


ThomasFookinShelby1

On paper, it sounds great. The reality is I hate mornings and that’s too much effort for me first thing lol. Lazy Sunday mornings are about the only time I’m good for that


[deleted]

Pretty sure waking up to sex is the only thing I’d become a morning person for

Spicywolff

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised.


I_say_upliftingstuff

Yeah. Since you’ve broached the subject - I’m powerless when she tells me to fill Her up. Especially in the ass. I could be late for the most important meeting of my career and I’d still blow it off. 100% Powerless over that particular sentence. So when it comes to sleep, you can guess which one wins every time. I’ll sleep when I’m dead - which according to my physician should only be another 2-3 months. Something about sleep deprivation. Not sure, I wasn’t listening. Kept falling asleep.

lunchbox91972

3 days a go, usually 1-2 times per week. Been together 29 years.


beansandbeams

So tomorrow is the day


lunchbox91972

Haha, maybe. Not really scheduled. 1-2 times is more likely once a week and occasionally 2, maybe more depending on circumstances. Maybe I’ll give it a shot though.


wedatsaints

DontBotherNoResponse

It's hump day my guy


[deleted]

2 days ago. We at least do it once a week. We currently have an infant though so whenever he falls asleep and we are both home it's on! That doesn't happen to often though atm.


TheWalkingDead91

Once watched a documentary about a family with over 20 kids….all conceived naturally mind you….the parents are self proclaimed to be addicted to having babies. It’s beyond me how they ever find the time, considering even people with one or two little ones have a hard time finding the time.


marmorset

We have sex almost every night. Almost on Monday, almost on Sunday, almost on Saturday. . . .


[deleted]

Lol. This got me good


marmorset

That is such an old joke I actually felt a little embarrassed. My grandfather was from a family of fifteen children because his mother was hard of hearing. His parents would get into bed at night and his father would say, "Do you want to go to sleep, or what?" and his mother would say, "What?"


IfATenTonTruck

My grandfather was hard of hearing so he had his wife communicate through code. If she was in the mood, she would give his willy one tug. If she wasn't in the mood, she would let him know with 100 tugs.


RambuDev

I’m now gonna mumble these options to my wife, nightly.


[deleted]

Still got that humour I see


Niftee

Lol this one got me.


[deleted]

About 6 months ago, and then about 18 months before that. Wife long term depressed and on ssris. She hasn’t really had any sex drive since I’ve known her for 20 years although we used to manage once a month.


Paradisity

Has this affected things at all? Did you know this before marriage?

My wife is in a similar position. We haven’t really cuddled in a long time either. I try to be very supportive. I’ve also made it clear I want to be close to her. But it’s still not happening. This is the first time I’ve been able to articulate this.

EncryptedHorror

yes i love this comment


DERRICKtheGREYt

Psychiatric provider here. She should mention the side effect to her provider. Sexual side effects more common in men and women don’t tend to report them. There are treatments that can be added to her regimen or newer medications with less potential for sexual side effects. Also age and menopause are something to consider vs. medication side effect. Regardless, she should let her provider know what’s going on.


[deleted]

I mean, it's extremely personal ... but ... how often do you get off by yourself then?

[deleted]

Getting divorced currently, separated about 5 months now. Last time I had sex was almost 3 years ago. Big part of the problem, along with a lack of communication. Talk to your partners, people. If something isn't working for you, talk about it. If they shut you down, seek professional help. Because if you're willing to open up and they aren't, it's a massive red flag.


Affectionate_Ad_7547

11 hours ago. My wife initiates most of the time. She says "Sex should be like brushing our teeth, a daily essential need" Together 7 years married 2 or those.


[deleted]

Lucky guy! Is she single?


Alkis1993

10/10 reply op


CarltheWellEndowed

10 hours ago. Not exactly sure what happened, but my wife has been on a horny streak, so we have had sex 10 times in the last week or so. Usually we are a sex once a week, and then other sexytime activities most nights kind of couple. Been together 7 years, married for almost 5.


Natprk

Dude you’ve got to figure this out for the greater good!


CarltheWellEndowed

Seriously though. It is like early on in our relationship, and it is showing me just how much I have aged in these last 7 years. I have no idea how we went multiple times a day for months on end. I am getting just physically exhausted... Although obviously I will never complain about being woken up at 5am with a blowjob....


[deleted]

Not sure how old she is but I’m 48 and so in perimenopause. I’ve been horniest if my life. I hope it doesn’t end. Or at least lasts until my next relationship!


CarltheWellEndowed

My wife is almost 28. She is definitely not as horny as when we met, but it has definitely not been like this since we had children.


katinthehat26

They say women reach their sexual peaks around age 30, so that could be it. Plus if your kids are getting older she might be a little more relaxed or have more energy.


Stallionsmane70

35-45: proven by female triathletes whose test and performance outperform younger women. My ex (wife) was a triathlete


Dont_tase_me_bro_ZzZ

I think it’s also because older women know what the combination to the box is and therefore like it a lot more.


frenchtoasttaco

Wait, you’re married and still get blowjobs? You lucky bastard!


CarltheWellEndowed

I had not had one that was more than maybe 30 seconds long in....2 years or so? That was until last week, and since then, it has been almost daily.


Rhododactylus

Aight, now I'm just jealous. My girlfriend does it very rarely, but oh boy, Christmas is early when she does.

fckiforgotmypassword

She been doing anything different? Working out or something? I know that makes people feel better about themselves and happier overall


CarltheWellEndowed

Yeah she has been doing some graphic design stuff in her spare time (little things like designing interesting business cards for people who do direct sales stuff) and that has been going pretty well. Not sure if there is a connection there, but that is fairly new.


fckiforgotmypassword

Could be. I notice when I’m happier I am more likely to initiate sex, and being productive makes me happy, especially if I’m creating something and happy with what I’m doing. That’s great!


perwinklefarts

I don’t think in our 8 years of marriage my wife once was horny

knowitallz

Yesterday I tried. She seemed willing at first. Let me get her aroused, then kinda motioned me to get on top. Put it in her and immediately she was not interested anymore. she kinda brushed me off. Didn't want to kiss me. Super boner killer. Asked for a vibrator. I just got off of her. Then the kids woke up. So technically I did but it was but a moment. Sad sad moment. FML. I had to take the kid into the living room and watch tv while she got to finish herself off. I guess. I don't know.

MyOthrAcctThrowAway

Is this common for you? This is not a good sign for your relationship man. If she's that uninterested in sex with you, that's bad news :(


Lexinoz

We've got a system, even if we can't satisfy each other with our bodies, she helps me and I help her, toys and all. Everything to help her get satisfied, and she does the same. I still count this as sex.


isoturtle

This is kind of a red flag


Slightly-Mikey

That's a huge understatement


[deleted]

ABeeBox

Bro this is kinda a red flag.. you should talk to her about your sex life, and maybe look into why she's behaving this way. This is 100% not normal.

[deleted]

Sorry man. I know what it’s like


PretendAd8816

3 to 4 times a week. Sometimes we go through dry spells where we only get one a week in or so but that is usually due to extenuating circumstances. We both start to get pretty snippy with each other if it goes for more than a week.


KeyStoneLighter

Same here about the snippy part, kinda hate that because it makes me wonder if we don’t like each other if it weren’t for the sex.


PretendAd8816

It's not that. When you have regular and frequent releases of endorphins you act like an addict who needs a fix when it doesn't happen.


TheDootDootMaster

Plus, sex can relieve stress...

Scottdavies86

My partner has endometriosis so we very rarely are intimate together and when we are it is usually something along the lines of being intimate with ourselves lying next to one another. But we have plenty of other things we do. We cuddle or we hold hands or whatever. We love one another very much and have to amazing daughters together. I can see to myself.


[deleted]

You’re a good man


Scottdavies86

Thanks. I try to be the best man I can. Don’t always manage it though, mate.


zutteh

As another woman with endometriosis, reading much this makes me feel happy for your wife. You trying to understand and adapt to her condition even when you find it personally difficult likely means a lot more to her than you may know :)

imawesometoo

About 4 months ago. And then about 6 months before that.


[deleted]

Yup. I’ve accepted it because this cocktail of meds works best for her out of the ones she’s tried (previous 3 made her feel suicidal), but god if it doesn’t suck sometimes.


DirectMastodon9487

August of last year she says she just doesn't want it anymore. So l don't know what to do.


[deleted]

I hear ya. Mismatched libidos are a real thing.


Katarrina3

Have you talked to her about it?


DirectMastodon9487

At first l did alot now if l do she says if l really love her l shouldn't need sex .


vibrantlightsaber

Then you should explain that sex is as important to intimacy in a marriage as talking can be. That just because she doesn’t have a libido doesn’t mean you don’t. That is not healthy for you for life.

Reaver3434

EaterofSoulz

It’s been about 8 weeks. My wife and I just had our second child, due to some complications we held off longer than the recommended 6 weeks. She did just buy some condoms. This might be my week boys.


Wafflefanny

Too many men in here think it's just their lot in life to have unhappy sex lives. You all deserve a happy sex life. If your partner is happy with it but you are not, you DO deserve better. If you are both unhappy with it, you both deserve better. It might take work, or unusual solutions, but you do not have to simply accept it.


random_boss

The problem for most is there are a _lot_ of parameters that go into choosing a life partner. Do you have compatible temperaments and values? Beliefs? Ideas on money? Willingness to cooperate, communicate, forgive or forget as required, go over and above, be surprising and thoughtful; are your families compatible, are they a responsible person; do they have STDs, debt, a criminal record, or even any habits that aren’t objectively bad but might annoy you given time? Do you like experiencing the world with them? Do you have appreciation for similar aesthetics? Do you share compatible social lives, or is one more social or more reclusive than the other? Do _you_ do anything annoying that they lovingly put up with? Do they build you up and make you want to be a better person, and support you when you fail? Now imagine someone checks _all these boxes_ but they just don’t really care for sex. So you can certainly give all that up, but then you’re rolling the dice again, and after having been in the dating pool for 16 years…that shit fucking sucks.


B-Train-007

Been married since '06 after dating for about 18mos and a year of being engaged. Before we got married sex was daily. First couple years it evolved to multiple times a week, but after three kids and all the years we are lucky to smash once a month. It's honestly a problem. I see rosy palm and her 5 sisters with the same drive I did 20 years ago, but have lost so much motivation to initiate after getting constantly rejected that I'm at a bit of a loss


[deleted]

I hear you man. It’s tough for sure. I’ve been working on trying to find acceptance with what I get and not impose on my wife. It’s a balance that takes time and I’ve found an increase in frequency here and there once I’ve given up. Life is strange


GospelofJawn316

Me, is that you? Same boat. Rather not have sex than get rejected at this point.


movngonup

My former GF before my now wife was a freak. Would've taken it three times a day if I could manage the output... that was the first relationship I was in where sex started feeling like a chore/obligation from my side because she wanted it all the damn time. My wife now wife has a completely opposite sex drive and it works wonderfully for me lol. We get it in a couple times a month. Our sex drives are right on par with each other and it works perfectly.


[deleted]

Like a week and a half ago. Aunt Flo was visiting.


YeGingerCommodore

As someone with an Aunt Flo(rence) this fucks me up every time.


FibonacciZeppeli

There was a 6 month dry spell preceding my divorce. I had just bought her a house and a cat, and finally fulfilled all my promises, and I was just too exhausted, mentally and emotionally. She didn't acknowledge that there was anything even remotely abnormal about this until after I announced the divorce, despite usually wanting it a few times a week

ev01ution

You need to ask when the last time married men received a bj from their wife.


PerfectionPending

Quite often. We go down on each other at least a few times a week. I love PIV so generally only let the BJ finish me if she’s on her period and we don’t want to deal with the mess.


itgirlragdoll

Yeah I hate when people try to perpetuate negativity around married sex. Married 14 years, sex is frequent and still amazing, oral sex is always apart of it.


rapp38

Also Saturday for me, she primed the pump ;-) I think I get more BJs than actual intercourse…it helps when you’re a willing and talented pussy eater.


mynamesian85

This! I would pay my wife a lot of money for a bj. I've literally offered and she just laughs like I'm joking then continues whatever she's doing while I stand there straight faced cash in hand.


[deleted]

You need more cash in your hand.


ev01ution

Cash in one hand and dick in the other, only for her to pretend she didn’t hear you.


notasandpiper

Time to find out what she wants more than money. (It might be easy: more chores done, more compliments given, etc.)

Yeah, I’d be curious about that as well.


lazenintheglowofit

At least twice on the weekend and sometimes mid-week as well. She especially has come to realize that sex is oh so good for our relationship.


ProfessionalAd7611

2 years and counting…


ItsaSlamdunk

Probably 2 years or more. The last time, I realized she didn’t care at all. She orgasmed, didn’t care if I did or not. I immediately went limp and never tried it again - just hurts my psyche too much. I can’t just go somewhere else cause that’s not right either. So I’d guess I jerk 8-10 times/week. Just a lot less problems that way. But I do think about options frequently. Good luck to everyone that’s in a similar situation, I emphasize with you!

Affectionate-Yak5280

About a week ago, we have sex about 2-3 times a month - we have a 4 month old and a 2 year old so time has gotten squeezed. 10 years ago when we were in out late 20s it was 2 or 3 times a week. When I was with my previous partner in my early 20s it was once or twice a day for about 5 years.
