[quote=Anonymous]I also have a husband that wants sex daily. I'm more of a 2-3 times a week type girl. Our kids are 3 and 5 now and at least they're sleeping through the night usually, but I am so exhausted by the time we get in bed, the last thing I feel like doing is exerting myself further. We had a TOUGH time in the early years of parenting because his desire for nightly sex did not wane and he felt very rejected very frequently.

We actually hit a serious low point that had a lot to do with the "lack" of sex. Keep in mind we were having sex at least twice a week still even with newborns and full-time jobs.

I think he wasn't only upset about the frequency but also my interest. You can tell when someone is just going through the motions.

Anyway, nowadays, I shoot for 5 times a week, which seems like a good compromise and similarly make it known that I have no issue with masturbation. I also have found that I am more interested in the morning or during nap time because I'm not totally exhausted. Frequently I just give him a really good BJ, which is more than fine with. It's less effort to give him oral when I'm exhausted for some reason.

No advice really except just to do it. Honestly it's not worth the stress it causes him and our marriage even though I don't understand it. It's just something about him that I had to accept and commit to. And like PP's said, I try to remind myself that it's awesome that he's interested and wants me so much. Good luck![/quote]
