Sex - How long has it been?

Notgettinany · 04/04/2008 12:49

Name change if you have to, I have. Truthfully, how long is it since you have had sex?

I am coming up to two years (and I am married!). Can anyone beat that?

magsi · 04/04/2008 18:36

About 1.5 years ago...........just can't be arssed

InATizz · 04/04/2008 18:49

What's wrong with all you couples that aren't having sex?

I don't understand it... I have been with dh for 13 years (married 10) we have 2 young children... I can't imagine going for more than about a week without sex..and that's when I have my period!!

InATizz · 04/04/2008 18:50

And in answer to the question: Last night.

magsi · 04/04/2008 19:14

InATizz...

Must be nice to have the urge

OrmIrian · 04/04/2008 19:35

Well good for you inatizz

I've just been for a 6 mile run. It made me feel great and was very good for me. I don't know why everyone doesn't do it really. Oh yes I do....because everyone is different and we have different feelings and needs. And some people don't actually enjoy running.

Tutter · 04/04/2008 19:37

can someone please work out the average/median/mean* please

i know not the difference. i did once, aged 14

Tutter · 04/04/2008 19:37

two pleases

you see i really want you to

mybestfriendiscalledstig · 04/04/2008 19:53

mean = add numbers all up & divide by number of um, numbers
median = most frequently occuring number, I think.
And mode is when you plot all the numbers on a graph & its the top of the graph.
That may be bollocks - remembered dug up from GCSE...

Tutter · 04/04/2008 19:54

yes but, what's the answer??

hecate · 04/04/2008 20:10

"What's 'wrong'" ??? wrong there's nothing wrong with not wanting sex. you don't have to, you know...they don't lock you up if you don't feel like sex...

Some people don't have sex because it's just not something they are bothered about. Does not mean there is anything wrong with them.

By them, I mean Me.

magsi · 04/04/2008 20:16

here here hecate!!

namechangealso · 04/04/2008 20:26

Think of a number, double it.... then triple it. This is years and NOT my choice.

So.... Buda and Hecate... I have won

hecate · 04/04/2008 20:28

I'm sad for you that it's not through choice. That must be awful for you.

ByTheSea · 04/04/2008 20:32

2 days. I'm sorry for anyone not getting any when they do want it. And I agree we are all different, personally I hate running but need plenty of intimacy and sex (except for about a year or so after having a baby).

namechangealso · 04/04/2008 20:33

Yes... bloody awful TBH so maybe I shouldn't post on here cos my sympathies probably lie with people who have to cope without intimacy which seems to be everyones DHs!

Inatizz - I'm guessing that you didn't have a butcher of a OB cut your vagina up without your consent and leave the tidying up for the junior doctor to fuck up.
Not all of us can be as wonderful as you.

Mean = add all the numbers up, divide by the number of numbers
Median = put all the numbers in a list from highest to lowest (or vice versa) and find the number in the middle of the list
Mode = the number that occurs most frequently

Disenchanted · 04/04/2008 20:36

About a week, have been stuck in an apartment with my partents, sisters, nephews ect ... not the greatsest aphrodisiac!

Will be making up for it tonight though!

2point4kids · 04/04/2008 20:37

Those of you who do without through choice (and you're quite right, nowt wrong with that at all). Do your other halves feel the same way?
Most couples I know have mis-matched sex drives to some extent, so must be fairly unusual (and lucky!) to be with someone who is completely in tune with you if you just dont fancy sex ever...

Blu · 04/04/2008 20:43

I'm fascinated by the number of people who apparantly have sex in the middle of the day on a Friday!

tinylady · 04/04/2008 20:46

About 10 days.
I think sex is an important part of a relationship and you have to do it to feel like doing it iyswim

hecate · 04/04/2008 20:47

namechange you poor thing - there's a BIG difference between a loving couple choosing to not have sex (or just not having sex without making an actual decision about it) and a couple in trouble. You can have intimacy without intercourse. It's the difference between lack of interest in sex and a relationship problem, iyswim. And of course you should post, you sound really low about it. Do you have anyone you can talk to?

2point4 - yep. exact same way. Very well matched sex drive----zero!

tinylady · 04/04/2008 21:03

You can have intimacy without intercourse, but sex is a great way to touch ground with each other

ingles2 · 04/04/2008 21:18

as you posted notgetin I assume you're not happy...? Is there a reason? In particular I mean
