DH and I have a fairly active and regular sex life. At least two or three times a week is the norm, and this suits us both. If we’re on holiday, like now, we can enjoy much more.
DH is very experimental and generous. He loves to try new positions and often switches it up during the act. Sometimes, sex can be like a full-on work out.
Whilst I don’t dislike this, and I do have a lot of fun, I really would like to sometimes just have sex in the missionary position. Lazy, comfortable, face to face romantic sex. But we never do this….well, maybe once a year.
I’ve spoken to DH. I’ve commented during movies how nice it looks. I’ve had conversations about our favourite positions and stated missionary is mine. I’ve pulled him on top of me, only to be kissed and then flipped right back into a different position.
I don’t understand why we can’t just ‘make love’ for once, instead of all the acrobatics, which is so much effort. I know I get tired, and sometimes I think my DHs leg muscles must be burning like mad. We’ve been together over 25 years (met in high school), so he’s definitely not trying to impress me, and this isn’t a new thing…he’s always been the same.
Any advice - I know it’s not end of the world stuff, but I really miss feeling romance during sex.
