Do you withhold doing it when mad at your significant other?

No. Life is too damn short. I can put things in different buckets. (I know typical male but I am one.) Anger whatever can be set aside for coitus anytime. Some of the best happens when mad, no? Just hate this whole withholding concept. I'm certain there are extreme situations where it may be warranted and possible lifetime ban (wasn't me baby wasn't me) but for routine arguments and disagreements just because? No way.

    No, I don't believe in doing that. That would be punishing myself as well. Girls got needs as well. :D

    what does getting laid have to do with anger?

    Isn't it an outlet for anger?! definitely produces better sex.
    Heck I piss off the hubby to get prime time ;)

    I can't say I "withhold" it, but if I'm angry or we're fighting, I am not in the mood in the slightest....but, the same goes for him.

    Lifes to short not to orgasm every day, so I dont withhold it. But my S.O. hasnt made me mad enough yet to where I would consider doing so either.

    I never "withheld" because I was angry... But I sure as hell wasn't in any mood to pleasure him either.
    So angry sex, a rarity.
  • psshtt.. yeah I do, sucks for him.

    I find it difficult to be intimate with someone I'm angry with, hubby recognises and respects and once we sort things out, life goes back to a happy normal.

    Only if the offense warrants it and I'm so upset that the idea of them touching me turns my stomach. But in that instance, we have bigger problems than not getting laid for a night. :P
  • Just because we are fighting, doesn't mean "THEY" are! I will give him some great mind blowing loving and as soon as we are finished, turn my back on him! No cuddle time when I am pissed.

    I don't "withhold," but usually, if we're upset we avoid each other (even in a tiny apartment) so sex isn't typically on the agenda either way.

    Same here.

    I'm usually too busy slamming doors and giving the silent treatment when I'm pissed off at him.

    I don't withhold sex either. We try to talk things out and deal with stuff quickly and not let it fester or whatever... but even if we can't do that, sometimes we just have to table the issue until we can have some time to work it out. Sex is unconditional in our marriage. "Free and frequent". Sexual frustration doesn't help solve issues.

    Exactly how I feel.

    In my previous relationship, he would intentionally piss me off, and then wonder why I was acting like such a b*tch....then he'd say "Why are you getting so mad? I didn't actually CALL you a b*tch". No difference there, pal.

    To me, being angry and being sexual are mutually exclusive. If someone has been doing their damnedest to get under your skin all day, what would make them think you WANT to jump in the sack? :noway:

    That's what I use my workouts for...to get rid of all that aggression.
  • I don't usually get mad, and when I do I say what's on my mind, let him say his piece, either come to an agreement, or agree to disagree. But I will confess that I don't mind when he comes home all pissed off about something that happened in his day, I like helping him work off that frustration : )

    Nope. Sex is not a tool or a bargaining chip in our relationship.

    Unless it was something REALLY bad, I wouldn't withhold sex. Women need to feel close to have sex, men need sex to feel close, so it would be counter intuitive to withhold sex. Maybe a day if he did something that was that bad. An arguement, nah!

    And like another said, women have needs too hehe
  • Yes, and it works incredibly well every time. :)

    Intimacy is a must. It is great for the stress, as well as feeling close to that person, boosts your self-esteem.
    I don't think any argument is worth it to deprive yourself from having a great time with the one you love.
    No way.... If there is stress, you can get wild in bed and let all your anger out =) Problem solved and everybody happy!
  • Here is a hint... "The Silent Treatment" is not a punishment for a man, it is usually a well earned relief...

    I don't exactly withhold... but if we get in a fight I usually head right to my workout equipment and try to get my aggression out that way. The only part that sucks now is that I come back an hour later no longer angry and he is still pissed.

    I'm assuming that was directed at me. And, it is a punishment of the worst kind... I'm charming and delightful to talk to. A world without the sound of my voice? Well, there just is no worse punishment.

    (And, I'm kidding. I'm waaay too mature to do the silent treatment. I just pour bleach on his clothes and 'accidentally' slash his tires.)

    If I am mad I can honestly say I'm not in any mood for it. We have never done make up sex either. Not because I don't want to, usually it is him who doesn't want to. It takes a lot for us to get mad at each other and we hardly ever fight.

    No. I wouldn't be with someone that did. And I think there is a difference between when in the heat of the moment mad, and holidng a grudge and not giving it up for a week or so after an argument.

    Totally this!!! I would never with hold like that but I can't hold a grudge if I wanted to. I forgive and let things go pretty fast.
