    When I was younger it was daily or at least a couple times a week. For the past year I haven't had anyone to lay down with. Once I find another person I'd say it'd be a lot at first. At least daily and then slow down a bit to a couple times a week. I can't imagine going a week with loving especially when I have someone willing to do so.

    hubby and i did it quite frequently when we first met. one time 5 times in a day! been together for three years now and it varies. sometimes its a few times a week sometimes it is twice a month. i have a much higher sex drive than him. i would do it daily if i could. i think sex is important but there are other things more important. we have been through so much together and we truly love one another. i think thats the most important thing.

    "normal" is what works for you. DH and I have been together 20 years...married 17. 2 young kids and its typically 1-2 times a week for us depending on his work schedule. But we also never turn the other down if the mood strikes so...doesn't matter who initiates it, we just never say no. If it hits, then Wii is put on for the kids and we are bounding up the stairs. :laugh: Works for us. :D

    for us, it's 1-2 times a week. Hubby works a ton and we have 2 small kids so things are busy around here but usually once a week or so.

    This. And that is just because of pure exhaustion during the work week and little kid at home. Thanks to the 4 day weekend, we had time and energy for much more! :wink: But I think a healthy relationship includes 1-2 nights a week MINIMUM of sex.

    We both have jobs and 3 kids. I'm happy with 1-2 a week. We've been married 9 years. Frequent sex IS important in relationships and really helps maintain everything. If we aren't having sex we are a lot more *****y with each other.

    All the ladies who are saying "multiple times a day", When do you have time for a job (or is your man a two pump chump)??

    I enjoy a longer session at night and a quicky (10 minutes give or take) in the morning. I don't watch tv anymore, which frees up my calendar for more enjoyable experiences. Its amazing how much time you have when you reorganize your priorities.

    I would have had trouble finishing in 10 minutes when I was a teenager, now I am in my 40's. If I don't have 30+ minutes, I don't even bother and even @ 30min I consider it a quicky and feel a little rushed. Everyone is different though. Also, it is amazing how many people on here must not know what the word "foreplay" means since some people are claiming 5 times a day. I'm guessing their love life is more like grope, grab, tug, go, pump pump, done (X 5).

    Unless your partner is getting off 4-5 times within that 30+ minutes then you are doing it wrong. Not that it sometimes doesn't last that long, just that it doesn't have to for everyone to be satisfied, if you know what you are doing

    When I was a teen I needed more time to get her "off", now that I know what I am doing even quicky can get the job done.

    You all suck. :(

    lol I feel your pain!!

    I just hit 10 months and counting.

    Please.
    Year..PLUS

    My right hand and I are friends..

    If I didnt have a brief fling late last year, I would be closing in on four years. :noway:

    I have watched all the porn at this point.


    I'm lucky if my husband of 25 years is interested twice a year. And those two times are only because I jump him and won't take no for an answer (on my birthday and our anniversary)! He has issues. Intimacy issues, abuse issues, ADHD and depression. But when I married him, it was for better or worse, through thick and thin. So I spend my life frustrated and very well stocked on toys and porn. He's getting treatment and trying really hard. I just don't think he'll ever be able to have a "normal" sex life. No sex isn't on my short list of "deal-breakers", so I make do. I love him and he's a good partner in other aspects. I'm not gonna leave him over this.

    Hubby and I have been married for almost 14 years and we "do it" about 4 times a month. Conflict in schedule doesn't help :(
