QUESTION: When you're in a relationship and out of the 'honeymoon' phase (say 6
months in?) how often do you have sex? How often do you wish you had
sex? Please state if male or female!
For the longest time, we were having sex multiple times a day for most days of the week. Recently, though, we've only been having sex once every week-week and a half (due to an unfortunate pregnancy scare; it kind of kills the libido). Sometimes, I wish that we were back to the way we were but, hey, I'm still happy so no harm.
Anywhere from 2-3 times a week sometimes more but it's usually based on what she's feeling like. Of course I'd like 7+ times a week but that won't happen. Male.
Generally 3ish times a week. Obviously it varies depending on what's going on (if he has a lot of work a particular week it drops dramatically) but thats to be expected. Also, we've been dating for 2 years.
I'd like it to average closer to 5 but obviously the difference is so small its basically irrelevant and I only get turned down occasionally.
Been together almost 4 years, and can be anywhere between 1-5ish days per week. Really depends what's going on and how busy things are! But if it's not happening a lot we talk about it, and we're both happy with everything. Communication is good people!
Been almost a year and half and last term when we were living together it would be probably 5 times a week but now he's away on co-op so only 3 times a week on weekends :(
Once or twice a week. It used to be probably once a day when we had the opportunity, but just the nature of our schedules makes that a little difficult sometimes. In any case, I'm content with the frequency we're at right now.
Female - Went from 4-5 times a week (sometimes multiple times a day) during the honeymoon phase...to 1-2 times per week now since we're both pretty busy. Real life gets in the way.
Before my boyfriend moved to a different city for grad school we had sex at least once a day. When we were in the honey moon phase we would do it as much as we possibly could handle.
I have been with my man for 6 years, married for close to two. (We are 26/27) We had sex multiple times a day in the beginning - mind you we lived an hour apart so when we were together we made up for lost time. Now, we have it anywhere from once every 3 weeks (which is terrible) to 3 times a week. I totally depends on what is happening in life, if we are sick, stressed, etc. We have learned though that the longer we are together, the more effort you have to put into adding a spark or romanticism. It just gets easy to get into a routine of doing your own thing or going to bed at different times. So yea. Don't stress it if you go through ruts, so long as you keep communication open.

ReplyDeleteWe used to do it at least three times a day. Now its 3-4 times a week.
ReplyDeleteWish it was three times a day again.

Once every 2 weeks or so. It didn't start being so rare until after about 1.5 years together.
