Ok - let's do this!

[00100001]

How often do you and DP have sex?

We're really sporadic, but I guess, on average, it would be twice a week. Some weeks nothing, other times 4+ it all evens out.

Almost daily but on average I would say about 5 times a week.

We both have very high sex drive.

Fructose tart are you actually serious? If you haven't had sex for a few days you relieve him because it's only fair. Please tell me I have fallen into joke.

Agree with travertine. That doesn't sound particularly healthy - I don't mean to criticise, just no one is 'entitled' to sex if the other person isn't in the mood. That's what God gave us hands and LoveHoney for.

I'm slightly embarrassed and feel like I am (not even stealthily) boasting, but I think we probably average about 12 times a week, though not always PIV.

I think we both have high sex drives and a propensity to express love through physical contact (I score highly for that on the love languages test). And, in my defence, I was previously in an abusive sexless relationship and at one point didn't have sex for 9 years so I am just catching up.

I'm 36, DP is 42 and I have a 10 year old kid.

TWELVE? Where do you find the time?

Ummm... Well.. every night (just go to bed 45 mins earlier than otherwise would, as I also like sleep!) so that's 7. Then at least 3-4 early mornings, plus a couple of afternoons/evenings when my child is not about.

I guess we just both consider it a priority. I know lots of people wouldn't. I've had several short sharp shocks to my system/way of looking at the world over the last few years and so find it a lot easier to please myself in terms of doing 'fun' stuff instead of 'dull' stuff when it's not necessary. Not just sex, but other stuff too.

I do feel a bit like a freak now!

I haven't had sex since my DH and I separated 2 years ago.

I now spend a lot of money at lovehoney

once a quarter (and yes i am using the business/financial meaning of the word here)

Usually about four Times a week. We used to have it once every few weeks (following birth of dd) and our relationship disintegrated, we made it a priority and we are so much happier. We are closer and more loving towards each other in general, it's brilliant. we stopped making excuses and just went for it really.

Travertine - I probably worded it wrong. If we don't have sex then we have foreplay. DP has quite a high sex drive and saves him pestering if I just keep on top of it

It's not a chore, I like pleasing him

Not often enough! Fairly new relationship, don't live together, averages out about 5 nights a month, though we usually manage 2 or 3 each time. If I had my way it would be at least every other day.

It goes in cycles for us. So one week 3-4 times, the next none if Dh on nights. 3-4 the week after then period week! So average maybe twice a week over a month!

Wow - that sounds brill the COurier. That would be my ideal but we have young, waking children still that we can't escape from that much!

That said it is probably 4+ times aweek, not always PIV but sex of one form or another. Apart from weeks he's away...

HOWEVER - we had pretty much NO sex in pregnancy or in the YEAR after each child.... we're making up for lost time....

Haven't been counting, but most days. When DP looks at me in that certain way I go weak at the knees and just have to lie down!

I would love more, but our sleeping patterns don't help - I like to be in bed at 10, he likes to stay up til 1 or 2, I'm up and bouncing around by 8, he likes to sleep in til 10 :(

Usually 1-2 times a week, more some weeks, less others. It just depends on life stuff. Plus I'm 32 weeks pregnant so it's not particularly comfortable at the moment but I love the intimacy and being with him so I take the rough with the smooth if that makes sense.

MotherFluffer do you have children? dreaming of time when I consider 8 anything other than a lie in

Me 39 DH 37: DD 9&7.
4 / 5 times a week (when he's not working away then we have phone sex when we can).

me 37, DP 46 - (my DS5)
4-5 times a week is normal for us. It is a big part of our relationship (due to my issues from being in a sexless relationship with my exH). I always thought that I had a low/non-existent sex drive but I was clearly just with the wrong partner.

Not enough.

It's funny because I am completely besotted with my husband and fancy the pants off him but I just don't have much energy. I think about wanting sex more than I get to do it.

He has a low sex drive as well so it isn't a problem. When it happens it is great and we say we should do it more.

We also have teens who stay awake later than we do which can make things hard (or not so hard ;))

So I can't really say how often we have it because it all changes. Some times its once a week or more. Other times we don't have it for weeks. Sometimes my drive goes through the roof and then I have months where I just don't want it.

Oh and we have five children. I am nearly 34 and dh is 39.

He is also on a lot of medication.

Im 42 and dp is 44 we have 5 kids ranging in ages from 20 to 4. WE are together 24 years.We go through highs and lows but i havent had sex in about 3 weeks till last night.Its just getting the time to do it and do it properly.Im sick of quickies.

teacup yes we have a 3yr old but she has only woken before 7am once in her life! (barring night feeds etc y'know) This morning she made it til 9.30...I was awake at 7.30 she takes after her daddy....

I'm 33, DH is almost 36. Kids are 7, 2, and not quite four weeks :)

We used to have it every few days, including while pregnant with the first two. This last pregnancy though, I just couldn't. The last few months it definitely fell by the wayside and we haven't since DC3 has been born.

I did feel the other day like I would want to have sex again at some point so that was good!

Motherfluffer my two year old is the same, a little lazybones! She'll sleep past nine easily if I don't wake her. Unfortunately her brothers do not.
