What is too much sex ???

60 replies

Unicorndreamer · 03/05/2017 22:13

I'm very highly sexed and think about sex alot. Me and dh probably have sex 9/10 times a week . My friends have told me that I must be a nymph maniac but I honestly just find my husband a huge turn on. We have been together 19 years and I'm 33 now with 4 kids . I'm not at all sexy or pretty but we both fancy eachother rotten. I just love sex and wondered if others are this way with regards sex or am I the minority . Don't get me wrong dh amd me can have cross words but we always come back together and have a great sex life ??? I constantly read on here how women detest sex amd do it as some kind of duty which saddens me alot.

If the chemistry is right, like yours, you can't get enough.

Doesn't need analysing.

Sallystyle · 03/05/2017 22:15

Why does it matter? You are happy with your sex life, so what other people do should be none of your concern.

Please don't feel sad for people who don't like sex. Plenty of women on MN aren't big fans of sex and they are happy with that. I am sure they don't need you to feel sad for them.

JK1773 · 03/05/2017 22:18

I think it depends on the couple. If it suits you both and you're happy get on with it. To be fair your post comes across a bit like bragging. Lots of people do have issues with sex for many reasons. Others will do it more, or less than you. Who cares? Not getting the point of this post tbh

JustAKitten · 03/05/2017 22:18

DP and I are like this. Several times a day, we can never have too much sex. Our friends joke about it too.

I think we are in the minority but I also think it's sad women aren't supposed to like sex. I also think perhaps their partners are bad in bed

Huskylover1 · 03/05/2017 22:22

What a lovely refreshing post. Mumsnet is a weird place when you talk about sex. I often read about women having sex with their husbands and then crying as they can't bear it. WTAF? It's just so bloody strange. I love my DH to bits and honestly think he is the sexiest beast that ever lived. I could have sex twice a day with him or more and would never get bored of it. He is tall, broad, madly handsome, I cannot get enough of him. I cannot imagine what is going on in these relationships where women hate the thought of being touched by their DH. In 9 years, I have never once said no.

Unicorn i hate sex i really do i actually gagged at your post. Please dont feel sad for me i feel a bit sad for you ...

PianoThirty · 03/05/2017 22:25

Reverse? Grin

Valentine2 · 03/05/2017 22:25

If it's for you, why are you worried? It's just good old fun with someone you really love. And it's for free! So why not?

Sallystyle · 03/05/2017 22:26

Of course it is bragging. We have a great sex life, we have sex 10 times a week but we are happy with it. Is there something wrong with me? Hmm

I fancy my husband like crazy, it doesn't always translate to wanting sex. We go through stages. It's not a problem. As long as we have intimacy which you can get through many different ways it's all good.

As usual people who have low or no sex drives are told their husbands are probably bad in bed. I am not in a sexless marriage, but it bugs me for those that are. Some people just have low sex drives for a variety of different reasons, I have just came out of a very low sex drive period probably related to my hormone issues. It is probably very rare that the problem is that the partner is a crap shag.

Huskylover1 · 03/05/2017 22:27

Who the fuck hates sex? So bizarre. I really hope you are 92 and not 22. So sad.

JustAKitten · 03/05/2017 22:28

I said I wondered it. Not that they definitely are.

colouringinagain · 03/05/2017 22:29

I'm just jealous Wink

thinkbarcelona · 03/05/2017 22:32

What I would like to know is where do you find the time? 😂

HermioneJeanGranger · 03/05/2017 22:42

Hating sex isn't bizarre Hmm

Not everyone is wired the same way.

Sallystyle · 03/05/2017 22:42

I cannot imagine what is going on in these relationships where women hate the thought of being touched by their DH. In 9 years, I have never once said no.

I don't know many people who hate being touched by their husbands, do you? I know plenty with low sex drives, but none who are revolted about being touched.

For some women (probably the majority) their sex drives have nothing to do with their love or attraction for their husbands.

Many women here are going through menopause which can have a big affect on sex drive. Some work 40 plus hours a week with young children and are shattered. Some like me have teens who are up later than you are and privacy becomes more of an issue.

There are all sorts of reasons women have low sex drive or non-existent ones which say nothing about how they feel about their husband or the state of their marriage.

As long as the people in the marriage are happy it doesn't really matter does it?

Sallystyle · 03/05/2017 22:44

Husky you are acting like a 10 year old child.

Enjoy your great sex life without judging women who aren't the same as you.

You are old enough to have sex so I would have thought you were mature enough to not call people bizarre and judge someone's marriage because they place less importance, or no importance on sex.

Imi22sleeping · 03/05/2017 22:52

Im 35 married and ive never enjoyed it i always snigger a bit at ppl that do i think havent u gor anythibg bwtter to do. I just dont get it ive alway felt like that my first bf and i spilt up cos of it

JustAKitten · 03/05/2017 22:56

i think havent u gor anythibg bwtter to do

There is nothing better than great sex, especially with someone you love.

Imi22sleeping · 03/05/2017 22:59

I just dont like it.i love my husband i just dont like sex much prefer Brew

JustAKitten · 03/05/2017 23:00

That's fair enough. Are you asexual?

HildaOg · 03/05/2017 23:02

It sounds like you're both very compatible. There's no such thing as too much if you're both happy.

PacificDogwod · 03/05/2017 23:05

Too much sex is more sex than you would like.

Sounds like you don't have a problem.
Congratulations! Brew

gamerchick · 03/05/2017 23:08

I just dont like it.i love my husband i just dont like sex much prefer brew

If my husband said that, I would divorce him and find someone who did like it.

Huskylover1 · 03/05/2017 23:31

To be fair, I think it depends on who you are with and the state of your relationship. My first H was a cheating bastard. He was also short & skinny. My now DH is 6 ft 3, built like a brick shit house and is a cop and I find him so sexy. So yeh, it follows I'd be more turned on.

Huskylover1 · 03/05/2017 23:32

Agreed Gamerchick
