Is this is a normal way to have sex?

You know on TV how couples burst the front door open, and start stripping each other while passionately kissing all the way to the bedroom - is that actually a thing?! Reassure me please that even in the first throes it's not like that for anyone in real life!

Yes at the beginning, lots! Now, after nearly ten years and two kids, not so much movie style 😆

whatthebejesus · 20/06/2023 22:28

A FWB many year ago - hell yes. It lasted several years too but in the end had to end. Never had the same with anyone else though

Bubblyb00b · 20/06/2023 22:28

I had that )) but I was very young and passionate

Bubblyb00b · 20/06/2023 22:29

In one situation nearly not made it indoors!!

How bloody small and light is your DH?!

I’d put my back out if I tried to drag mine!

I couldn’t knock DH over unless he tripped over me! Let alone drag him out of the room 🤣

I am envisioning Luisa, the strong sister from Encanto, here.

It happened like that here today.
Rushed through the front door, clothes ripped off and straight down to business.
So satisfying!

I only wish I had a partner to do it with 😟

literalviolence · 20/06/2023 22:31

It was. 18 years and 2 kids later it's not!

With XH, nope: maybe once we did one time in 15 years. Split from him..met DP. I fancied him the second we met, months down the line the chemistry is still intense. We are long distance (and see each other when we don’t have our kids) and when we meet up again we basically do rip each other’s clothes off! 😀 I doubt it’ll last forever, especially when we have kids around, but it’s lots of fun.

BridportSpectacular · 20/06/2023 22:36

Yes, one relationship, telly sex all the time. He was an utter git mind you….

Shodan · 20/06/2023 22:36

Oh yes 😁Not so much now, to be fair, seven years in, but it definitely still features. Sometimes we don't make it to the bedroom and the stairs have to do.

I tell you we don't bloody do though, that they do in films, and that's have a three course meal and coffee before going home to romp vigorously about the bedroom. That's a sure-fire route to burping/farting/indigestion if you ask me.

Oh dear, this thread is not helping me feel any better! I need to re-evaluate some stuff!

If it makes you feel better, I've never!

MachinesOfGod · 20/06/2023 22:44

Yes, it definitely can be, or banging on the kitchen worktop, etc.

Most people would trip over all the crap in the hall and do themselves an injury. And then have a row about whose crap it was and who hadn’t put it away……

That would make a brilliant tv comedy scene. Sort of Catastrophe-style.

MrsSkylerWhite · 20/06/2023 22:45

Sorry, was very much so at the beginning.

Not so much 36 years on 😁

MaidOfSteel · 20/06/2023 22:46

Nope. Wasn't like that for me. Doesn't mean it isn't passionate, because it is, just not like on telly.

continentallentil · 20/06/2023 22:48

A lot early on, and still from time to time - when we have been out and there are no kids in the house kind of thing.

I am cracking up at the posters who wouldn’t have sex like this because they’d want to wash their hands first and tidy up. It wouldn’t do if we were all the same 😁

Cakeandcoffee93 · 20/06/2023 22:48

Been with my bf 5 years . Both in 30s.
we are both very compatible in that area. God when we moved in together we had sex all over the house and it would last for hours. Our daughter was still a baby then.
To be honest we are similar now, not as many marathons (shagathons), but we can go a few days without.
I do have a high sex drive I think for a woman but could be wrong

DH and I have been together 10 years next year. Got a 7 month old. Went to spend a few days at his mum's and on the last day (today) baby was playing in the room, his mum was at work. DH confessed he has been crazy horny which was great because I was feeling the same!

I seduced him on the hall carpet outside the room by knocking his legs from under him and dragging him by his arms to the hall... quick, very steamy and no different to when we first met!

Just to let you all know, DH was in no way injured, he loved every second with enthusiastic consent throughout! Being "overpowered" by me is a kink of his. I don't do it often to keep it fresh and exciting!

🤣🤣 I’m sorry but this has me howling!!

Matildahoney · 20/06/2023 22:48

5 years in, and I'm pregnant, it's still like that at times!

Sallyh87 · 20/06/2023 22:49

Never for me! Realise it’s the opposite of the whole thread but my sex life is very mundane I think! Anyway wanted the @SnuggleBuggleBoo to know she’s not alone.

Just for the record very happy with my marriage and DH though, just never had that passion I suppose.

FurryPelmet · 20/06/2023 22:49

Yes, with various people at the start of relationships, but I’ve never swept all of the things off the table / countertop theatrically with one glide of my arm before having sex on it so there’s still a goal.

FuckStonewall · 20/06/2023 22:50

I need an actual bed these days.

IHateLegDay · 20/06/2023 22:50

In the beginning of a relationship or a ONS, 100% yes.
After nearly a decade together it's now:
Wanna shag?
Ok, let me just finish plucking my chin hairs first.

Duckingella · 20/06/2023 22:51

With 5 teenagers in my house we'd never get the opportunity to do that!
