Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Giving up sex?

It started when one of them was ill and they needed decent sleep but my folks have slept in separate rooms now for years. I think they both like different hardness of mattresses as well.

But as far as I know they still have a sex life.

Meglet makes a good point. When you are getting it you want more. When you are not you get used to getting less.
Been through both phases with my wife - although the not getting it was due to ill health and sometimes depression rather than not wanting to shag me.

I shag my wife frequently and we are happily married. I hope this has added something to the debate?

So we are agreed - if you don't get much you want less. The more you get the more you want. Is that the same for men and women? Certainly true for men.

Actually it can't be right. In a faithful relationship both parties are getting the same amount. So they should both want less or more together.

I've just noticed the tags on this thread. It is like they are not listening to the problem at heart

Should this thread be re-named to "People you want to shag, but can't?"

Ha ha! Excellent. Well done ted.

So - you are (mostly) happily married. After a few years you have some offsprings. The Mrs doesn't really feel much in the mood when she's covered in baby vomit, sleep-deprived, and feels like she looks like she has been dragged through a hedge backwards. You have been demoted from the most important person in her life to an accessory that changes light bulbs and fixes the car insurance. You accept this, in the vain hope that it is temporary.

Women multi-task all the time. Surprisingly, tonight the kids are asleep. There is peace in the house for the first time in bloody years. You decide to seize the moment and ... have an early night. Nudge-nudge. Just as you are both getting warmed up there is a squeak from the nursery. The End. Instantly.
