In my experience it is 1 or 2 times per month. Is this normal?

From what i've seen on Dr. Phil and Montel, and some shows on sex and relationships...this is not only not normal but not healthy for your marriage. You should be having sex at least once a week...not month. You guys need to make time to be together. If you have kids send them to a babysitter go to dinner get a hotel. Before the kids and before the careers you two were just the two of you...you need to get that back. I would like to have sex at least 3 times a week...but sometimes it doesn't happen...we usually have sex about 5-10 times a month. So try being romantic and sexy...send your partner text messages or emails or leave dirty notes in their wallet or on the bathroom mirror or of the pants that they are going to wear that day...get them thinking of sex all day so when they come home no matter how tired they are they just want to ravish you! I hope this helps

Not that keeping a score card is good for the relationship I would say that you should have sex any time you are not wiped out with the kids - if you don't have kids then you should be having it as often as possible.
With 3 kids we have sex at least 5 days a week. There are some weeks that just doesn't work; but we don't harp or give each other a bad time about it... hell we make up for it.
We have been together for several years... it just gets better with time. SO - I can't imagine why anyone would choose not to .. but I am a guy and it's at the top of my list... thankfully it's at the top of hers too!!! SCORE

I don't think there is a NORMAL. I have been married almost 17 years, and we started out with about 5 or 6 times a week and do it even more often now. But I know couples who do it alot less and they have wonderful relationships, because they are both happy with it.

As often as both parties are willing!
I don't know about 1 or 2 times being normal but I guess it would depend on the couple and how much in love they are with each other and how healthy both people are.

depends on how long youve been married. most people to it 5 or 6 times per week at the beginning. but even later in the marrige 1 or 2 times a month isnt very much...

That depends on the couple, each married couple is different. This is my second married and we got married Oct 2005 and he drives a truck and we make love about 10 to 15 times a month

I don't think it is healthy for your relationship. Sex is part of a good relationship. Once a week would be good, more if the two of you wanted to. My wife and I hit a rut and it had gotten to about once every other month. We talked about it and decided we would have sex at least once a week. Since then our marriage has gotten stronger and we are actually doing two or three times a week because we want to, not because we feel like we have to.

i have been married 7 years and i'd say on average 3 times a week, some weeks every day, sometimes a week without...it all depends on the couple. we had a child when we got married so we never had the "no kids" eperience, but we were teens together. if you want it more...ask for it, your married, the game board is set...so play your game, you know sex is an extention of dating...dating is the process of getting to know someone personaly, sex is how you get to know them intimately...how well do you know your spouse?

Yes 1 or 2 times a month is normal...... as long as your spouse doesn't find out .

I'm not sure what's "normal." How do you feel about it?
For me...and that's just me...it's not enough. Hubby and I have sex at least once a day! We definetly don't go long without it.
Sex is special, helps to keep the bonds of marriage tight. It keeps the two of you connected spiritually and physically.
