48 years old and want sex like a porn star

I am 48 years old and have 1 adult son who has been out of the house for 7 years now. I am divorced and live with my boyfriend of 2 years. After my son was born I had a hysterectomy due to some health issues. All my life I have had zero libido. Even as a teenager I was not all that interested in sex. It has always caused issues in relationships, but no matter how hard I tried sex was just the most dreadful thing to me. I have never had any desire to read about sexual pleasure or even watch porn. I have never even owned a vibrator! Now all of the sudden all I can think about is sex! I am going in insane. I want to watch porn and jump my poor boyfriend and rip his clothes off everytime I see him. Currently I am tracking a shipment containing three vibrators like it was a million dollars. Can anyone else relate to this? I have never even been able to talk about sex and now I actually ache from all of this sexual energy.

Lol I'm afraid I cannot say I'm the same, but if this is a new normal for you, you may as well ride it and enjoy it! Pun intended!

I can't relate. Sorry. But have fun.

This really made me laugh!!

My libido has disappeared but I don't know if that's because I'm single, only met real arseholes over last 2yrs so not interested or due to menopause. I'm going on a date tonight and I feel quite excited so fingers xd I'll feel rampant.

However, back to you I suspect that you've finally got a man who has been the only man to awaken your libido. I say. Enjoy it, you've got 30 years of pent up sexual frustration to release plus THREE vibrators enroute LoooL. Enjoy.

Asking for a friend, but is there anything you have been doing differently lately, diet, vitamins?

seacaster · 12/06/2021 14:19

No. Nothing has changed in my life except for this. I actually take 3 different medications that are known for diminishing libido. I have taken them for years now.

As you are around the perimenopausal/menopausal age it might be hormonal changes causing it. Look up ‘sex surge’. I think there is an old post on here somewhere about it too. Enjoy! At least you are lucky enough to have a willing partner! 🙂

I have done some reading about 'sex surge'. I think I may have even read the post you are referring to. My poor bf who has ED so he has to take a pill, and even then that doesn't always help, I may wear him to his death at the rate I want it. I so try to be respectful of him and not ask for it everyday. That is a whole new thing for me as well, to ask for it. I NEVER could do that before. I just currently feel like I am in someone elses body.

Me! Also 48 and recently out of a long term marriage.
I spent lockdown last summer happily shagging a friend, multiple times a day.
Now I've got a new chap and he's both shocked and happy he gets jumped ALL THE TIME.
I'm also impatiently awaiting a parcel from Lovehoney,
This is SOOO not me - I have been nonplussed by sex for the past 30 years.

3 vibrators? Two for you and one for him??? Wink Grin

The DM will be all over this by this evening.

I had this at the end of last year OP. I was totally insatiable and I’m in a similar situation to you with DH so it was unbearable. (Im Lucky to get it once a fortnight) Luckily it only lasted about a month, then I was back to normal. Self service didn’t really cut it somehow. 😬😩
