[quote=Anonymous]This is a serious question. Our sex life has dropped off a cliff and while I don't really mind, I know my husband does. "Kids" isn't the issue, since babies sleep in cribs and when a toddler is asleep, they are asleep. But we have a tiny upstairs where all of our bedroom doors are really close. The kids, now 12 and 8, sleep with their doors open, and even if they were closed, you can hear a pin drop. Not to mention a kid on ADHD meds who has trouble falling asleep, another with night terrors and sleepwalking.

As for the sex, total silence just isn't possible for either of us. So what is a couple to do? I am starting to feel REALLY guilty, and somehow I feel like its all my fault and responsibility to fix.

I understand that "if its a priority you make it work" but HOW, exactly? Sneaking into a car? Waiting until 1am and sneaking into the basement? This all just feels like a LOT, and I am really at a loss for something that really shouldn't be this complicated.

Do couples in our position just not have sex unless they have a night away?[/quote]
