    It is interesting that when I started lifting weights my libido sky-rocketed which my husband loved. I can't tell you how crazy that was. I felt like a teenage boy. Now that things have calmed down and my body is out of shock we are at 2 to 3x a week. We are both happy with that and have a great marriage.

    Have any other females had that experience? Is it the jump in testosterone?
    Yes, same thing for me when I started lifting again! Besides the added "T" I think becoming more confident in my own skin from lifting/working out also contributed.....check this article..........http://www.yourtango.com/experts/mark-dilworth/7-reasons-women-need-testosterone

    As sincere as some of the posters on this thread no doubt are - there are some serious bull****ers posting too.

    Haha I was thinking the same thing...reading some of them and thinking "ppfftt whatever"

    We hit our 19 yr mark next month. 4 daughters (3 of them teenagers) and a whole lot of history together both good and bad. We have gone through stretches without any (for reasons) and we have gone through phases of "Just cant get enough of it"

    As long as there is communication happening and a large amount of respect and giving then whatever you both are happy with is YOUR normal.

    Isn't it when a mommy & a daddy, & a daddy, & a daddy, & a daddy love a mommy so much that they give her a facial?

    I have been with my OH for 5 years and he ahs a very low sex drive - much MUCH lower than mine. We're probably once a month and although it bothered me at first, we have a healthy and loving relationship and thats normal for us! Of course I would love daily like most people on here, but thats just not us. It doesnt change how we are attracted we are to one another or anything.

    I think it all depends on the coupld and their compatibility - you can only say whats right or wrong for you.

    CeeBee, thank you! My husband has health issues which we have started addressing the last few months but as a result sex is pretty much a non option at this point. But, we started out as best friends and never based our relationship on sex ... don't get me wrong I miss the "days of old" but in the larger scheme of things we are Happily Married (14 years this August)

    I agree with this... Married for 17 years this year it comes and goes and happens at different rates throughout the marriage, kids definately make it trickier, but so do other factors with age or stress in life, and that goes fro men and women not jsut the women.

    My current honest answer is 2-3 times per month, but that will change again over time to be both more and less depending on loads of situations, health, jobs, age, stress, etc

    I myself can go without for weeks, my hubby can not. He wants at least 3-5 times a week. In order to keep the peace because he gets frustrated the door is open. lol I really enjoy pleasing my husband.


    Its important to communicate with one another inorder to find out what the others expectations are and try to meet each other somewhere in the middle.

    Oh yeah, time for each other is worked around our 3boys 13,7,2 yrs.
