YANBU, I went 3 years without (after DD was born, lone parent, etc etc) and by the end of that I was climbing the walls!

YANBU.

Hope the drought breaks for you soon, in the nicest way possible, even if it's just a naked cuddle with someone you vaguely like.

YANBU at all.

YANBU join the club. Though I do have someone to hug, have a laugh with mind. Just not getting any. That sounds very selfish.

cos it is Grin

Go to your local Ceroc - it's all happening there!

LurcioLovesFrankie · 16/07/2013 16:14

I've just realised I've lost count. Thinking back, it must be coming up for about 8 years. But as a single mum in her late 40s I don't see the situation changing ever, so I guess I'd better get used to it. But, no yadnbu (that's a definitely in there). I think it's the hot weather. I'd shag anyone available who was up for it at the moment.

Cambam2010 · 16/07/2013 16:20

Another one joining the club (4 years). It's the closeness that I miss and having someone wrap their arms around you in a hug when you are trying to hold it together but failing miserably.

EBearhug · 16/07/2013 18:17

I'm another in the years camp. In fact there have been far more times without than with since I lost my virginity, and long stretches of it.

I can live without sex with others (though I feel guilty about my battery consumption at times), but what I find really hard is that I've had about 2 hugs this year, and one handshake. No other human contact at all, and not that much more in the year before either. (I am not counting being on the Tube in rush hour. Nor being at the doctor.) Sometimes I wonder if I might as well be dead.

Ezio · 16/07/2013 18:33

I've done 4 years no sex, i thought i had a man to change that, alas it didnt happen.

SneakyNuts · 16/07/2013 20:32

Feeling your pain
AND the lovely man I'm seeing "wants to wait"

Gaaaaahhh

Ezio · 16/07/2013 20:37

Sneaky, how frustrating.

Im at the point now, when i just want a man to ruin me, shag me into oblivion, i needs it.

susiedaisy · 16/07/2013 20:38

Me too been 3 years now and I'm really missing having someone to cuddleHmm

Ringodingo · 16/07/2013 20:41

EBearhug, feeling for you and understand what you are saying about the human contact. I find myself holding on for dear life when getting a hug from a relative. As it is very far and few between. sending you hugs from me please don't wonder your last sentence.
Sneakynuts hopefully he will be worth the waiting time.
I do think its the hot weather making me up for a shag tho.... come the winter all I want is my jimjams on and a good book...

Anyone else notice that there's so much sex, flirting etc on tv, I think because I'm not getting any I notice it much more than I used to!Blush

Yes Kim you're spot on, all I've seen today is couples of all ages holding hands strolling in the sun!

Ikeameatballs · 16/07/2013 20:49

Over 2years for me though I do get hugs and kisses from the dc and hugs from family but I really miss the delicious pleasure and intimacy of sex.

Once I have the house in my own name (so less chance of ex p being an arse about it) I will def be getting myself some.

TroublesomeEx · 16/07/2013 20:49

Oh I totally agree.

I've got a date tomorrow (whoop, whoop) and, although I wouldn't do anything on the first date, I'm hoping we hit it off and I don't have to wait too long Blush

Poor bloke won't know what's hit him! Grin

susiedaisy · 16/07/2013 20:50

Grin Good luck

AmIthatHot · 16/07/2013 20:56

YANBU

It's just over 9 years for me. Luckily DD loves hugging her mum, so I get plenty of human contact, but I would chop my right arm off for even a kiss from the opposite sex.

I've given up though, it aint going to happen Sad

Ezio · 16/07/2013 20:58

Wheres the equally desperate men who need a dose of shag from randy sexually aggressive mumsnetters.
