Fed up of DH wanting to 'talk' about my friends

Dh and I have been together years, and it's becoming more and more apparent that we have widely different sex drives. I'm happy with once a week, I don't think he would be satisfied if we were doing it 2 or 3 times a day!

We also both work full time and have 2 young children (9 & 4)

One thing that constantly puts me off is he likes to talk about other people, what he would do if they were there and constantly mentions wanting a threesome (like everytime we do anything.)

Problem is it's not just famous people, he starts bringing up my friends. He'll ask what i would do if they suddenly came on to him and would he have to say no etc

I know he wouldn't actually do anything (and it's really not likely to happen in real life as none of my friends are his biggest fan anyway) but it's draining.

He says I'm boring and he's just doing it ti make things more exciting but I find it awkward and I don't want to talk about people I know that way

He also constantly tells me that he could better and that I'm punching above my weight and would never find anyone else so this kind of talk doesn't really help

I assume when he told you you were punching above your weight you punches him straight in the smug face and walked out the door, never to be seen again, right?

There are times when the classic go-to MN phrase is the only answer… LTB (and don’t look back)

He's a bit of a twat then?

You're not 'punching'. You're not 'boring'. You don't have to listen to his rubbish.

You keep typing 'DH' but surely you mean 'ex-DH' right?!

He tells you you are punching above your weight!!!!
Hell I’d be showing him just how hard I can punch by using his stupid face as a punch bag.
Maybe start by telling him he is giving you the ick and it’s a real turn off him droning on about three somes.
