This. It's my marriage and between my husband and I and maybe a therapist if need be (we don't need one since Everything is ok but when I used o go to therapy for other things I could see how I could bring up sex if it was important to discuss it for whatever reqson) |
We used to while we were all single and dating, or even in serious relationships. It completely stopped after marriage. The only time a friend has brought up sex since our group of friends all got married was in confidence - concerns around her DH not initiating, and she was seeking therapy to deal. We no longer discuss our sex lives in a funny, explicit, or cavalier manner the way we used to. |
Only when a friend complained to me that her husband doesn't initiate. Amazing how many mismatched sex drives there are out there and it's not always the man wanting more.... |
Yes, explicitly, BUT my close female friends are all friends with my spouse, so I don't talk about him. I talk about sex in general, about my own body, and about sex I had in college. |
I know that DW talks about it with her friends more than I do with mine.
She's generally a happy wife and she has some hot friends so I kind of get off on the fact that she tells them some things. |
Same here. |
So, when single and dating, what do women talk about specifically? |
Yep, this. We are all friends with each other's spouses and it would just feel disrespectful and frankly, I don't want to hear about my now two friends having sex. |
Not since getting married. |
Everything. Penis size, positions, how long, was it good, was it bad. Lots of laughs. Miss those days. |
I used to when I was younger- but not since I've gotten married. It's private and not for public consumption. |
No, we've been married over 35 years and we are still very active. I know I'm lucky and I know it's best to keep my mouth shut. I've never been comfortable with other women talking about their sex lives whether good or bad. |
I share my escapades with my AP with my BF. |
Agree with all of this, and I think the bolded is the crux of it. Now that the spouses have all been in the picture for awhile and we all know each other / hang out together, it would just be kind of weird in an 'ehhh don't want THOSE details / THAT image' way. Not that I couldn't talk to them if I needed advice or something, but we just don't really. I think when you're single and dating, you have more to talk about - did you guys hook up, was he good in bed, what funny / hot / crazy / cheesy thing did he say or do, what is he into, etc...kind of different with a husband. In awkward news, when she first started dating her now-husband, one of our friends told us all about their initial encounters - including the fact that his D was "like a French fry". Kind of wish I didn't know that now |
When my girlfriends and I were single, sure we would dish details about the guy from the bar last night. But not in serious relationships and certainly not when married. |
