Compromise. Can you two agree upon 3-4x a week?

This all sounds super transactional.

So he’s willing to do 7 times a week and you’re willing to do 4 times a week. You’re only 3 days apart. Can’t you guys compromise with 5-6 times a week?

He’s already cheating

Make sure you are on the pill.

Without being explicit, is the sex just as pleasurable for you as it is for him? You mentioned being sore, and him still wanting access to your body. I wouldn't want to have sex if my partner was experiencing discomfort, so that's a little concerning to me. I would focus on lowering the frequency and having him focus on things solely pleasurable for you, so you aren't experiencing pain.

Most married men can only dream about 3-4 times a week. That's plenty and I'm saying that as a man. Anticipation makes it more exciting. He needs to learn how to woo you on those down days and not act like a pouty beyatch. Let him know what a turn-off that is.

I’ve posted how he reacted. He isn’t happy with me wanting less sex.
Easy solution, BJ for the extra time per week you don’t want. Should be no soreness.

I agree. I’m sore and exhausted. He is happy with 1-2 times a day. I’m happy with 3-4 times a week. He doesn’t want anything less than 5 times a week.


You two are very close in expectations! Usually when people post about differing sex drives here they are a factor of ten apart. This is something that can’t be that hard to work out and it’s going to change with time and circumstances anyway. What will matter isn’t what you agree on right now, it’s how you work together to solve it.
