So, I am mid forties, male, and have only had sex with my wife - we met when I was 30. Don't know what I was doing with my life before then to be honest..
Anyway, we have one child already, so are not completely clueless.
But, these days, I have no idea how to end up having sex. There seems to be an unwritten idea that it's not something that happens on a school night - and then we end up knackered or arguing (more like bickering) on weekends. Couple that with watching too much depressing news just before bed.
On good days we do get on well. All the usual caveats about sharing housework equally, childcare equally, can apply.
Just seems we spend too much time dealing with the admin of life (and stressing about other peoples / family members lives) that the mood never seems to shift.
Although I don't really want to write it down (as that somehow makes it more real) I have a horrible feeling we are in what is known as a sexless relationship.
Feeling a bit sad - because I'm not sure I even have a mythical 'at it like rabbits' time to look back on either.
The pressure of trying to TTC for #2, with time passing, probably are not helping if I'm honest.
I could cheefully chuck the telly out of the window - I think that could help.
Thanks for reading - not sure what I am expecting back..

AIBU?
To have lost all confidence in having sex? (no TMI content - promise..)
