Mismatch in sex drives - advice needed

30 replies

EvolvingDad · 24/09/2014 15:54

My wife and I are in a deeply loving relationship, but regularity of sex has declined (to a few times a month from a few times a week), it is causing some problems. Pretty classic case of mismatched sex drives. I end up feeling frustrated / rejected and unfulfilled, DW ends up feeling pressured and inadequate. Always great when we do make love and healthy relationship elsewhere. DW doesn't think there is an issue. Two kids 6 + 4, been together 9 years but not sure that's even relevant. Just interested to get opinions / advice on what I'm sure is a common problem? Maybe I just need to stop being a twat?

Are things any better in your situation, KIH ?

Not really AF, but there's other stuff going on that means my decision making capacity is compromised, particularly the big ones! Besides, in my last thread here I said I'd stick it out for a few years. People change, especially when DCs are small.

Thanks for asking though!

Life goes on, yeah ?

Yep, it has to really.

Don't fancy the alternative.
