To wonder why DH's/DW's/DP's don't just shag each other more?

Would solve a lot of heartache, frustration, infidelity and general angst.

I appreciate some people can't due to illness, not talking about that. Nor am I talking about people who have experienced trauma and abuse. I'm talking about generally 'healthy' couples.

Speaking from my own personal viewpoint, I love my DH but he's got a low sex drive...and to put not too fine a point on it, I'm considering options.

If he wanted it more, this would be resolved. An easy solution wouldn't you think? For anyone in this situation.

Namechanged obv.

YY to Geordie. I would like to think that I would never cheat, but even when you have a normal healthy exciting sex life at home, a little flirt is fun. If your DPs idea of a fulfilling sex life is to go straight to twirling your already sensitive in a bad way nipples (even after being told not to s million fucking times) and then sticking it in, just friendly eye contact with another vaguely attractive man is going to be nice. Then if he starts telling you you are beautiful and occasionally brushing your arm you are going to get goosebumps and feel that warmth in your stomach. Your eyes will sparkle and you will feel like you felt when you first met DP and he watched you in the moonlight while lying on a beach and whispered in your ear that you were the single most beautiful person he had ever seen. When his hands shook because all he wanted to do was touch you. When he would spend hours just running his hand up and down your bare neck and back because he worked out that by doing it lightly he can make your nipples hard and get you so close to climax that he only has to suggest touching you elsewhere and you begged for him to.

Oh god I really did didn't I?? No one normally pays enough attention Tony posts for them to kill a thread!

SlinkyB · 10/01/2012 22:28

What thread?

WorraLiberty · 10/01/2012 22:28

Well tell Tony to pack it in then Grin

ForNowYouKnow · 10/01/2012 22:28

Took me 25 minutes to pick a new name for this thread as well. That's 4x longer than the amount of sex I'm going to get in the next 6 months.

The thread title reads like you're trying to instigate an MN orgy Blush

Still, desperate measures and all that...

ForNowYouKnow · 10/01/2012 22:30

Yes it does Shock

See if all the highly sexed DH's/DW's/DP's were to shag each other...that'd leave the disinterested ones alone and give them more time to MN Grin

ForNowYouKnow · 10/01/2012 22:40

Well, I think that if people read it as instigating a MN orgy they'd all be on here asking about venues (not the boring ones), and there would be 1000's of posts.

Or they'd be saying 'Thought this was about a MN orgy. Pfft' or 'Have a disappointed Biscuit'.

Tony has been dismissed to bed with a mills and boon

Which reminds me, the campsite where I occasionally work sells mills and boon books. Next to the Anglesey sea salt.

I do think though that the thrill people end up seeking outside of an otherwise 'normal' healthy relationship is one that reminds you of when you first met your OH, IYSWIM? I also think that the spark or whatever it is can be recreated with your existing DP, it just takes a little hard work some lubricant and a PVC outfit. Possibly a blind fold

thederkinsdame · 10/01/2012 22:56

It's weird, isn't it? Why is there this perpetual myth that all DHs/DPs are gagging for it 24/7 and that women are the ones that go off sex? It seems, anecdotally on here anyway, that often it is the other way round.

tethersend · 10/01/2012 23:01

RoyalWelsh I'd like to thank you in advance on behalf of my DP.

Am now off to bed. Wink
