Only have sex when you WANT to, not because you are obligated, and not because you have to worry about feelings of rejection or the destruction of your relationship if you aren't having sex whenever he wants to.
I knew a woman who told me her husband expected sex every-other night. I thought, how horrible. It's like you're a receptacle for a bodily function, like a toilet, instead of passionate love making. I'd go nuts if I had someone pawing at me all the time like that.
Most men and women who want romance should not live together. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
You only want sex once a week? No wonder you didn't like being married.
Holy shit right? I've been with my DH 15 years and we still go at it 2-3xs a week with a little stand alone oral thown in there for good measure. Prior to having kids, we were fucking 2xs a day.
You are wise, DO NOT GET MARRIED AGAIN. You sound low drive.
I feel bad for many of the men posting on here in sexless marriages. I don't think they are the norm though. As I've entered into my late 30s, my drive has increased, so I'm not sure what is going on in these relationships.
Actually, I think about sex a lot, and take care of myself many times a week. Sometimes daily. But when sex becomes routine and expected, it's a turn off. And when you're partner is being an unhelpful jerk who doesn't contribute to the marriage in (whatever) ways, it's a turn off. Real life is a turn off. Hungrily jumping a guy who I've missed, and who has been missing me all week, is a turn on.
So you'd rather masturbate than have a full relationship with a real live man? Your x did a number on you.

Wow. If this is for real it's messed up in so many ways.
Yes it's for real. He treats me awful when he is mad at her. I try to leave but he threatens me. It's a loosing battle. I try to get out but I'm scared of his power over me. I feel like an abused wife who is scared to leave and I'm just the girl on the side.

Does the rough, dangerous sex arouse you though?

You should be married to my DH. Once a week is perfect for him. I prefer to have sex 3 or 4 times of week. Moral of the story: be brutally honest about how much sex you prefer before you get married. It's a bad scene otherwise.

How long did it take you to notice?
Two or three years. The second stage took seven or more years.
My conclusion is that you're both very low sex drive. Even with two kids under three, we made it a point to have sex once a week whether we felt like it or not.
NO. I have a high sex drive.
So if you're high drive, why did it take you two or three years to notice your sex life was missing?
