Will we ever have sex again 😂

[DailyMailCanFO]

Two teens in the house whose bedroom is about 5 paces from us. A dog that sleeps on the bed...it's never going to happen!
The dog barks if we shut him out of our bedroom and everyone sleeps with bedroom doors open. Teen one is a night owl, teen two is an early riser so that just leaves daytime, except we are both at work! Never manage to coordinate the teens both going out at the same time at weekends, so one is always home.
This is until they move out isn't it 😯😂

Shut the door and get a fan for crying out loud! 😀

I have two sons, 11 & 16 and I can't say that having sex has ever been a problem for DH and I....... I would never allow it to be an issue.

Shut door and lock.

Never lived in a property that has a lock on a bedroom door and can't imagine why I'd need to.
Your whole OP is the reason you need to, isn't it?

You could take a shower together, I doubt your teens will walk in on you there.

For fucks sake. I get that you keep the bedroom door open at night for air flow (as do I), but that doesn't mean you can't shut it, and LOCK IT, for 15-20 minutes to have sex! Buy a bloody lock. All of your excuses are ridiculous. I highly suggest you put your marriage at the top of your priority list.

Just let the dog in and try to ignore him, our cats are asshats and if we try and lock them out they'll meow at us until we let them in. So we just let them in and ignore them

Shut your door while you're having sex, open it afterwards ...?

My advice - speaking from experience...

1. Get a loft conversion so you get a bit of distance.
2. Get a little bolt for your bedroom door
3. Just ignore the dog, it seems weird at first but you all get used to it 😂😂😂

They sleep with their doors open? i didn't see my teenager for 5 years, he was hermetically sealed in his room

5am OP

People are so angry on this site. Wow. OP I get you were having a laugh.

Invest in a lock. Pop Spotify on a laptop and lock the door for an hour or so every night or two.

Another vote for tv in the bedroom! Block out noise and also an excuse to close your bedroom door "we didn't want to disturb you"

Wherearemymarbles are you suggesting the op goes dogging??

@madcatlady just what I was thinking, surely teenagers develop a sudden and intense need for privacy

I've never lived in a house that didn't have doors with locks!
Alas, I got the dog used to sleeping on the bed while I had no bf, and funnily enough, it turns out that bfs often don't want to try out new positions while the dog excitedly jumps up and down beside them. But rather than having a TV in my room (Making love with Richard Osman grinning at you? Really?), I have a radio in the other room, for the dog. I don't normally listen to BBC Radio 2 but it turns out to be quite effective.

Bathroom fun

Yes, you are not scr*d! No way round it. Tell them to go out so that yourself and their father can have a sunday 'nap'. Tell them 'nap' is a euphemism...they will flee!:

”Never lived in a property that has a lock on a bedroom door and can't imagine why I'd need to.”

How about “because you are complaining that a lack of privacy is impacting your sex life...?!”

Buy a caravan on one of those holiday home sites. Put a sign above the door, "our shag pad" and bonk your hearts out.

it's cheaper just to shut your door though

I’m glad my teenager wears headphones. While on the Xbox. And trust me he will stay in there for hours if I let him and don’t tell him to get off.

He also does a club once a week that he walks to. So. We are okay. For now.

Folk are getting annoyed because this is the most pointless annoying post ever.

”Folk are getting annoyed because this is the most pointless annoying post ever.”

Yep!

OP: “It’s so annoying, DH and I can’t have sex because we have no privacy as a result of our doors-open policy”
MN: “Shut the door then”
OP: “I have no idea why anyone would need a closed door to their bedroom, I never would”
MN:

Chill out all of you!!!!! It was just a fun post!!!

A fun post, telling folk who have bothered to advise no I can't shut my bedroom door, yeah bloody hilarious, haven't stopped laughing since....
