[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this is hard to believe, but for the first 16 years of our marriage, DH and I only had sex once a month. I thought he just had a low sex drive but then we were fighting so much, we didn't have sex for 4 months and started counseling. Surprise surprise, we had an emotionally distant relationship our entire marriage. We worked super hard to repair our relationship and now have sex once a week.

During the once a month years, I mostly helped myself liberally and fantasized about other men. Unbeknownst to me, I also flirted more than I meant to with other men: dads in the neighborhood, some guys at work, etc. I never cheated, but had all this pent up energy that had to go somewhere.

Hugs OP. I hope you sort this out soon. [/quote]

I like sex. Have had it liberally and am the farthest from a prude you would get. I just cannot understand how sex is such a priority for some of you. That’s not necessarily a criticism but I don’t get the fixation. Pent up energy? Fantasizing? Flirting?[/quote]

People have different drives. I love sex and can’t go more than a couple weeks without it. That’s sort of like wondering why some people can’t go without social interaction - some people are introverts, some are extroverts[/quote]

Thanks captain obvious. Sort of my point. But “can’t go more than a couple weeks without it?” Or what?[/quote]

I spontaneously implode, of course.

Maybe you’ve just never had really good sex? Your attitude sucks, can’t imagine many people are attracted to that.

I swear every woman’s life would change forever if she slept with one man who was good at oral. It’s hard to find. But after that, it’ll occupy your every thought. [/quote]

DP but WTH?

All she did was ask a question.

I’m betting all you “can’t possibly go two whole weeks without sex” women are dorky losers who have convinced yourselves that you are in fact insatiable sexual creatures to compensate for a lack of male interest and attention when you were young.

Because you sound insane, at best, or mind bogglingly immature at worst.[/quote]

The sarcastic “thanks captain obvious” was completely unnecessary.

People have different desires for different things. Some people can’t go two weeks without talking to friends, listening to good music, or having a delicious meal. And it’s really not rocket science to deduce that if someone is extroverted and goes a couple weeks without talking to anybody, they will become fixated on trying to talk to somebody and have pent-up social energy.

I’ve always had plenty of male attention, no deficit there. [/quote]
