Let's talk about sex in long-term relationships

I thought it would be interesting to start a debate on sex within a long-term relationship.
How often do you have sex with your partner?
Has your sexual relationship changed over time?
Are there fantasies you are yet to divulge to your partner?
How old are you and your partner?
How long have you been together?
Did your love life change for the best or worse after having children?
Overall, are you happy with your sex life?

How about you start?🤔

Strange you haven't put why you want to know?

TanteRose · 02/05/2021 02:11

Survey, much?!

Best of luck with your article.

DramaAlpaca · 02/05/2021 02:15

Nope. None of that is any of your business.

There is a proper place where you can link surveys for research.

My husband and I have been together since we were teens in 1996. I am nearly 41 and DH is 41. We have sex at least 2 times a week, but more when we are not stressed at work or busy. Our sexual relationship has improved over time as DH suffered with low testosterone in his mid thirties and sex dwindled to once every 1-2 weeks. He also struggled to stay hard. It took a few years to get the treatment spot on and regain his sex drive fully. When we are on holiday, we can have sex daily. I have the higher sex drive. We have no secrets and share our fantasies. We only have one child and we made an effort so that the child did not disrupt our romantic life. We did not do co-sleeping. Our child was never in our bedroom. We had sex throughout pregnancy and shortly after the birth. In fact it was sex that triggered my labour. Right now, I am happy with my sex life. I always orgasm and DH is a generous lover, who aims to please and ensure I ‘enjoy myself’ before he does. But I would love sex daily, whereas 2 or 3 times a week seems to satisfy DH.

Why?

Brilliant post 😂!

No context. Nothing about you. Let’s just ask others personal questions.

I usually have sex once an hour. 💥

ButtonMoony · 02/05/2021 05:43

All day everyday.

I currently have my phone strapped to dhs chest and am typing each letter with my nose when he thrusts.
