My husband and I have been married for 6 1/2 years and we have sex about 5 times a week, and he still wants more! I am exhausted! We have 3 kids who I care for all day not to mention all the housework and cooking! How can I get him to slow down w/out making him think I am not interested, just tired. Do you all have sex this much after being married that long?

5 times a week, wow' maybe you should try going for 3 times a week. Just tell him what you said to us, that after all the house work, & dinner is done and the kids are asleep it's relax time. Spread the nights out when it comes to the two of you and your sexual needs.

I have been married 2 1/2 years and right now I would say 2 to 3 times a week on average. Things have picked up because a while back it would be once a month if that. I just didn't make time for it, but now that I do 2 to 3 times a week is fine for me.

When I was single and dating the woman I married it was 5-10 times a week.
When we got married (me 25 her 26) it was 3-5 times a week for the first three months. Then it tapered to about once a week for the next 5 years. Five years after that it was about once every two weeks.
The last two years (married a total of 12 years) it was roughly once a month - that's if I complained about it for three weeks first... lol
In her defense she said she wasn't wanting to "use it all up" before we got old and when we did do it, it was so good she was satisfied enough for it to last a month.
I've dated three women exactly like her since my divorce and if things don't pick up... There'll be a #4 on the horizon very soon.

Hey there
If you ever split up can you give me a ring ? Ive been married for 17 years and have never had sex 5 times a week . I think about 2 or 3 times a week and he still would be lucky.Good on you for putting out for him I wish my wife would !

Most guys probably wouldn't mind having sex 5 times a week, but normally everyday life kinda takes priority and gets in the way. Sounds like your husband's priority list is way different from yours; doesn't make either one of you "abnormal", but it *can* be a problem. In my own priority list, sex isn't even on the first page; fortunately, my husband feels the same - so, for us, the answer to "how often" is actually embarrassingly low (once every couple of months maybe; I actually initiate it more often than he does); married for 3 months, together for 2 years, we're in our 30s, no kids.

It is perfectly normal to have sex 7 or 8 times a week. you can do two things:
1. Get a good looking assistant to help you when you don't feel like it. If she is between 20 to 30 I am sure that would make every one happy.
2. Don't give it to him when he wants it. Make him go out and find it him self else where. Be sure to tell him not to bring home some of those nasty deadly venereal disease.
I hope I made it clear to you what is going to happen.

Better you than some strange woman. Be glad that he finds you attractive enough to want that connection with you all the time.
If you don't put out, he will find some other woman that will.
I realize it may seem a lot to you, but you are truly blessed to have a husband that wants only YOU!
I was like him when I was younger. Some just have more hormones raging a little longer than others. Better him wanting sex with you often than a porno obsessed freak.

I have been married for 14 years, my hubby was the kind of guy that wanted sex everyday all day if he could, well as the years went on the sex slowed way down, now its almost non existent. Point is it does taper off after awhile. And you just need to be honest with him and tell him your tired doesn't mean your not interested, you have a lot on your plate. Good luck

Sometimes, not every week 5 times a week. Just let him know youve been married long enough to be able to talk to your husband, I know he will understand. Once you explain to him that you want it as much as he does, but your tired from all the work you do all day.

My husband and I have been married 5 years and when he's home, we do it at least that often, sometimes more. The catch is WHEN HE'S HOME. He's a fighter pilot and is often gone for stretches. I guess we just have fun when we can! I'm not going to lie, it gets tiring but I never know if he's going to come back from a flight or not so I cherish him as much as I can!
