Nc, I've been with hubby for six years now, we've a 4 DS, very happy relationship but DH would like sex more often. We do it roughly every two weeks with him instigating.

I'm just so tired all the time and not in the mood for more? How do we compromise?

He never pushes me if I say no.

I would say you are already compromising 😀

I mean, he initiates; you accept or decline; he does not push. I know that with me and my friends that is how it works. Is he complaining, or do you feel guilty?

What's your lifestyle? Do you both work the same hours, share childcare and housework fairly equally? Do you get time to yourself, do you have health conditions or feel unfit etc?

A very stereotypical cause of your problem is the woman in a relationship working herself to the bone through domestic stuff plus paid work plus mental load, and the man being oblivious to it all and feeling tip top and horny.

He works full time and I do one day a week, shares housework with him doing majority of cooking.

I've always needed more sleep, free time is good with him looking after LO at weekends as he doesn't seem them alot during week.
