Even after 15yrs of marriage and seven kids my husband and I are still very much in love. Before&during Christmas there just didn't seem to be any time for us to be alone. Normally we pick one night of the week get all the kids in bed by eight, run a bath&have a nice romantic evening of peace and quiet but we hadn't even managed that.
As a result my husband took me away for the wkend recently&we had an amazing time,it completely rekindled our love for one another&our confidence in the strength of our relationship.Naturally enough I was not ready to come home but we had to.
Now tho I find myself in a bit of a predicament, I am obsessed with getting him into bed and having passionate sex like we had over the wkend.On saturday night2of my older kids were staying w/ friends so I bathed the three little ones together&had them all in bed by 6.45!So we had the night to ourselves.Is it natural or fair to want to get your kids out of the way,following my previous posting on the accidental

spank I received, we have been trying new and different things in the bedroom, and our sex life is more exciting than ever. Is it natural to be acting like a teenager and feel this way or should I stay focused on my responsibilities and stop being so self indulgent?

That's very natural and great because you and your husband want each other. My wife and I try to take 1 day a week to have a date night, we don't always have sex on those nights, but we love the quality time together.
I applaud you and your husband for putting each other first.
I wish you both the best.
Take care and God Bless

You and your husband are the luckiest people in all this world...You found your soulmate....wow, its what we all really want. You are a breath of fresh air. Your kids will grow up healthy and happy and know what its like to grow up with parents who adore each other, who havent let the responsibilities of this life overwhelm them into the divorce courts.
You have what most of us dream about. You are doing everything right, your marriage will survive this world and into the next. As a matter of fact I am going to show the man I love your posting to show him that not all relationships fall into the category of boring and taking each other for granted. I am going to show him that it is possible to keep the flame alive. I have been telling him this for ages now. You have just shown him that real love and committment does exist....thanks.

Yes! all the time. We have been married for 15 years also and have two children, I have been blessed with great in-laws which my children love. My in-laws live three houses down from us so our children spend the night over at least twice a week which leaves us alone time, the rest of the week my wife and I have to sneak around. :)

I think it's exciting that you're so passionate about your husband, but it's a bit cruel to make your kids go to bed by 6:45. Be reasonable and strike a balance. Eight o'clock would be fine and it gives you enough time.

I do, but it is for a different reason. I've been sexually neglected by a spouse that is sex averse. It's been two and half years without any sex. I long for her so bad...
I am such a passionate man, I would want to be making love to her all the time anyway... but of course I think of her all the time.

It is not only natural, it is awesome. Many couples don't even have sex anymore after 15 years. Keep experiementing and keep arranging ways to have alone time. Trust me, you obviously already have a great relationship, and a healthy sex life is a wonderful way to keep it great.

I am sure sending the little ones to bed early every once in a while is not neglectful of them.
Having a healthy, happy marriage is one of the most important thing you can do for your children.

Go for it. Be thankful!
After the kids are gone, it will only be you and your spouse. It's important to keep that intimacy.
And to be a better parent, the parents need to be happy in their shared love. Yes, IT IS normal!

nothing wrong with keeping things exciting. dont feel guilty for trying new things, you guys sound very healthy but you have kids too. soon enough they will be up and on their own, and you will have lots of time to enjoy your love
