How old were you when you stopped having sex.

[whatisforteamum]

I'm 57 and realised that I barely ever have sex now
Relationship issues and dh has had ED since a heart attack does have Viagra though.
I don't have much drive really tbh.
How old where you when you stopped having sex?

Love my DH so much but can't be bothered having sex and neither can he. We have a fantastic relationship and just don't need to have sex, last time was about 5 years ago when i was 50 and he was 55.

32, not sure what classes as regular but once every few months feels like spinster life to me!? And no, not single 😭

Forgot to say I am on HRT.

While I would still like hugs/closeness, I don't want sex at the frequency I used to and I don't think I'd tolerate sex that does nothing for me anymore.

It doesn't help that Ex used to repeatedly tell me (we met in our 20s) I was abnormal and should seek medical help for wanting sex more than 4x a year - so I spent most of our marriage very frustrated and feeling unloved.

I'd rather die lonely than be made to feel like that again. Also dating at my age sounds like an absolute minefield and I really can't be bothered.

34 I’ve just had my 10 year Anniversary of no sex 🎉 divorced , young children who are not so young anymore. Its been so long and time has not improved my wobbly bits. I can’t imagine getting back to sex being a part of my
life.

Some women (and men) do and that is fine, but equally I am not unusual or wrong for wanting a sex life in my 50s.

42, I'm single and just cba with a man at all at 46.

I’m 52, divorced over 3 years. Last time was a year ago. I really hope that’s not it for me as I still feel young and miss it

38 widowed . But forever married in my eyes.

Early 50s. I lost interest in my 40s looking back it was perimenopause. DH then had cancer treatment that affected his "performance". I do t really miss it.

3 years ago. My Partner died in 2021. I'm 56. It may happen again I suppose but I'm not looking for a relationship.
I had a 20 year marriage, 13 years of which were sexless, so I know no sex is much better than sex without love.

To all intents and purposes, 10 years ago, mid 40's. Dh has ED and doesn't get on with Viagra.
Has been very rare since we got together 24 years ago.

I'm okay with it now, very glad I had a great sex life prior to meeting him.

Wow. What an eye opener this thread is.

Around 50, when I realised I could no longer have sex with my lying cheating husband. No Ex! I'm 52 now and have absolutely no desire to have sex ever again - the menopause has completely destroyed my libido and if I'm honest I'd don't give a fig.

About 2 years ago...so I was 33 at the time. Around the time I realised my husband was an abusive prick and he just wasn't sexually attractive to me anymore.
Not going to lie...I get urges now and again and I remember how good it feels to orgasm...would love that feeling again, but, other than that, I'm happy with my sex free life at the moment

I'm 47 - haven't had sex since 2016, although in a loving and stable relationship. Neither of us CBA to be honest, although sometimes i do masturbate - we're close in lots of other ways so not really an issue for us

🥰

47. I love sex.

I have it as often as I can with my partner once or twice a week, but also masturbate daily.

Orgasms are my stress release.

I’m mid 70’s and still sexually active. I think I’ve always had a high sex drive. I adore the intimacy of a loving relationship, and was lucky to have a second chance after my DH died many years ago.

65 here and still enjoying regular sex...dh is 66. No viagra or indeed any issues with either of us.

27.. I’m 32 now. I don’t miss sex/dating tbh - but v thankful vibrators exist!

I personally don't think it's sad at all. To each their own, sex isn't the only way to express romantic affection. If you need it want it, go for it. But nothing wrong with other people not needing or wanting it

49 probably - divorced and single. Still would if the opportunity presented itself but so far OLD hasn’t been promising

28, and not through choice.

47, unless you count a one night stand attempted out of desperation, which I don't. I pray that my libido will go away, I hate going without it, or in indeed without physical contact in general.

I'm 55, have sex about once per week with DH (60) but would happily do without. It is, as per a PP, a bit of a chore. Libido was never super high but menopause had killed it.

To add, it's not DHs fault that it's a chore as PP seemed to suggest, it's the lack of libido.
