Serious question for ology ladies...

Out of limbo
I hope this is in the right forum. If not please move it or let me know and I'll delete it and repost in general chat but I'd really like some women's advice.

So me and my girlfriend have been together a year, today is actually our anniversary. We are both very active. She's a fitness nut, we both work full time. We live together with her 2 beautiful children. Neither one of thier dads are around so I'm the father figure. We've only dated a year but we've been friends since 5th grade. I'm about to be 30 and she'll be 31. I wanted to give you that info so maybe you might be able to help me out. Anyways, when we first started dating we'd have sex I'd say at least 5-7 times a week. It was like that for about the first 3-4 months. But ever since around month 4 we have sex once a week sometimes once every 2 weeks. No matter what I do, wear her favorite shirt, very giving (which I am usually always) hold her, kiss her, do all the things that she loves and turns her on its still nothing. She works alot yes, and the kids take a toll on both of us, yes. I do realize that after awhile relationships die down a little and that's normal and I think maybe ours died down quicker because we've known each other for so long. I don't expect the 5-7 times a week that was average for us in the beginning but damn. I have needs too. I've never cheated and I don't plan on it at all. Love her and the kids too much to do that but wtf do I do? We've talked about it, she said she's just tired from work but she's had the same damn schedule since we started dating. Just like today, I got her flowers, card, took her out to eat to a fancy resteraunt, bottle of wine, then took her shopping, we laughed, had fun, cuddled, all that lovey Dovey shit and nothing. Seriously frustrated. I told her she needs to get a hormone panel done and she agreed but never did. I'm seriously frustrated. Our relationship is amazing except for the lack of sex. And no it's not because she doesn't love having sex with me. She orgasms everytime. Any clues to what's going on? Anybody have a similar experience? HELP!!!
 
When we are tired... the sex drive (from personal experience) changes... Maybe you and her need to get a way for a weekend; Just the 2 of you and have a romantic weekend together. Where she can just relax...

GEt the book "His needs Her needs. It spells out how we have different rhythms and needs. IT will help you plan how to alleviate her responsibilities to allow for time for you. Lunch time is a great time for Sex. Kids are at school. Make time to really focus on her.
 
men will never understand women from one to the next it is always different

True. I'm going through a similar thing now. I've been with my girl for close to 2yrs now. We used to do it 3-4 times every time I saw her. It died down after about 10 months and she doesn't want it as much any more. I still get it at least 5-6 times a week but I feel like thats not enough lol. I guess I'm just a sex fiend. We're about to go to counseling for this cause its gotten to the point where it affects our relationship a lot. I would never cheat but considered leaving her just so I could get more ass. I know, I'm an assshole. But i'm trying to work through this because I care about her a lot.

Whaaaat?! Don't make me smack you LOL.

DUDE I would KILL for 5-6 times a week!
 
Ya colt I'm in the same boat. A year and a half but the love is still there. I think this happens with a lot of people.

Lol I knew I was gonna look like a deushbag for saying that. I got it a lot more when I just had friends with benefits though. I'm in my 20's and I'm a bit of a sex fiend.
 
Us as guys find out that a lot of the times we do stuff out of our ordinary lives for one sole purpose. Not that we don't love our ladies or like doing stuff for them if comes down to one thing. Do it for the pussy.

^^^^^THIS!!!!^^^^^

Great book. Also, get that hormone panel done ASAP.
 
really, you are complaining! LMAO

Exactly what I thought Jenner! Seriously, 5 - 6 times a week. That could get boring after a while in a long term relationship, especially if it's just going through the motions. Quantity has nothing on quality, yah know!!

There must be more to the story, she has two kids and a job, that can be real draining and sex can take a back burner. Hormones don't have to be the reason when other things get in the way and form a new habit.. Maybe she's bored of the same ol' same ol' no disrespect OP, but when a girl knows exactly how the sex will start and end it's just another thing to do.

You might need to spice things up..
 
I had a piss poor sex life with my wife for the last 7 years and read the book and I have been hitting it 2-3 times a day for 1-2 hours at a time. Our sex life was never this good. I was ready for a divorce. She moved out. I'm just saying Reading "His Needs Her needs" will help you. It's very insightful.

MEn work differently then women we need sex like food and air. We have to have quantity but it has to be good for the women too if not we don't feel like we accomplished anything. Read the book.

IF we don't get the quantity we get stuck on the fact that we need it. It"s a total distraction.

Trust me, I know what men are like I'm married with two kids ;) fact is there needs to be give and take in these situations. Sometimes she has to give into his needs and be understanding, and he needs to also understand her and sometimes accept that (oh ok honey no booty tonight) lol. Yes men have urges, but you have self control too.
 
Wow thanks for all te feedback ladies and gents.

Dred I'll definitely pick up that book.

Meathead.... I hate you :) I'd be happy with twice a week I really would, off cycle anyways ha.

Detour, no disrespect taken. I am for sure up for new things. She has had alot more sheltered sex life then me. I completely agree with you on the same thing gets boring. I kinda got in the habit of rushing right in to it when we did have sex because it was like I was a kid in a candy store due to not getting it very often. She brought it up and I agreed and so I've slowed down and put her needs into it too like I used to aka foreplay. She's the type that she know what gets her off and she wants to make it happen so she can cum and get it over with. Everytime we have sex afterwards she says "We have to do this more often!" and then when I try I get shot down and after being shot down 3-4 days in a row I give up. It's discouraging.

I know the kids and work take a toll on both of us. Hell sometimes I would rather roll over and go to sleep. There's alot of days that she'll be horny around 5 or 6pm and by the time we put the kids to bed and they go to sleep she's passed out. I dunno, I'm willing to try anything honestly. I'm definitely getting that book and I'll go from there. It's just in my head well damn if it's like this after a year what's it gonna be like after 5 or 10 years being married?!? FML
