Sudden surge in libido, not sure how to handle it with DH

2 replies

Have name changed for obvious reasons.

This has happened to me once before but my libido has shot through the roof so much that I want sex all the time, as in all.the.time. Usually, I'm a fairly reluctant once-a-weeker and it's generally always DH that initiates. I like it once we start but it's never a thing. Now, I'm desperate and DH is understandably fairly freaked out. He rose to the occasion well last time (18 months ago - it lasted for about a week) but he seems to be avoiding me at the moment - which I kind of get because I just want to be touched, sexually all the time.

I need to appear less desperate, less needy. I'm 44 by the way, I'm assuming this is a peri-menopause thing. I want to make the most of it but it's making me feel a bit sad and dirty.

Anyway, if anyone has any advice it would be gratefully received.

Perimenopause + sunshine can do that, yes. Just masturbate and don't feel bad, it's not your fault.

I don't really like masturbating - I find it really unfulfilling but yes I would guess that would be the obvious answer.
