Usually aim for once a week, sometimes more sometimes less.

We've been together 19 years and still manage maybe twice a week! It's more 'comfy' than wild and chandelier hanging esque though 😁

It's feast or famine here. It all depends on work and shifts.

Somewhere between once a week and twice a year here after 22 years. The point is we would like to more often but life gets in the way

Probably twice a week... we'll go a couple of weeks without sometimes but then make it up I guess Grin

Rarely. I work shifts, he is a postman. We try and make up for it on high days and holidays Blush

1-2 times a week also. He'd like more, I'd be happy with once a month.

Audrina did you mean one ball as in one testicle?

Just an unexpected little fact thrown in there!

Yeah sorry just thought it might be relevant. Not sure if it makes a difference to sex drive.

My fiancé and his late wife were 3x a week after 20 years.

5 kids... you've got to hand it to that ball, it's certainly picked up the slack Grin

Aye, it's not the quantity, it's the quality. For balls too evidently.

Once a fortnight to once a month here. Young family and tired from work not a good combination.

23 years together with 3 DCs, every day mostly for the last year. Probably minimum once a week before then.

Together 22 years. Married 19. Once or twice a week. Sometimes every night. But due to work occasionally can drop to a couple of times a month. But that's rare.

Happy bunny (not surprised! Grin) what changed for you in the last year?

Well in fairness they youngest 2 were post the older 3 pre. Just wondering those of you that have sex daily or 3/4 times a week, do you orgasm each time or is it more about intimacy? I always orgasm during the sex we do have usually through his fingers or orally but if I had sex the following day it would be an effort to orgasm again so I just wouldn't bother.

whirlycurly I was sterilized during a c-section last year with my third DC. I think the lack of hormone contraceptives brought back my natural high sex drive. My DP and I initially made a bet to see if we could do it every day for a month, which turned into two months, then a year and we're so much happier and closer we're hoping to just carry on like this indefinitely. It's increased intimacy in all ways, we communicate better and our generally more loving and caring.
