How long have you been with your partner and has teh sex waned/dried up?
Reason why I ask is because I have been with my man for 2 years, moved in within 6 months and our sex life is still amazingly great and very passionate. We often ask eachother if we can remember an occasion where we had best sex ..... we often say that it is always the best. I dont think there has even been a time where it was unsatisfying. We often do it about 6-7 times a week. Also we hardly ever argue either.
I notice on alot of forums women complain and which it was like the first few months again, like the honeymoon season. Sometimees alot of the men write on forums as well.
How long have you been with your partner? (could be husband or wife as well) has your sex life started to go stale? What do you think could be causing sex to dry up in a long term relationship?
Do you find that your sex drives are mismatched?


I love to more and more time have to be with my partner,I think the sex is the cause to dry long term relationship.
Priscilla....what??
And I have had a relationship where the sex never waned. I consider it some of the best sex ever. But then again sex is like pizza...even bad pizza is still pretty good.
A lot of them as of late have lasted about 6 or 7 months before I get bored. Not that its anyones fault, but it does start to get a little monotanous after while. I attribute this too a missing "connection" call it emoitonal or chemical, but I haven't found someone who captures me completely. Usually its just a "snag"

Yes. I started as a complete virgin, took about 6 months to get to intercourse. For about 1,5 year our sexlife was great. Then it became a lot less in quantity, but the quality was still very high. Than the quality went down. Last year our sexlife flatlined.

What caused it was basically his healthissues that make him very tired. Amplified by his ways of (not) coping with this (=working late a lot). Being so tired meant less sex, but when he was energetic we'd have long ecstatic lovemaking-sessions. As he became more gloomy about his health, the quality of sex also dropped. As his troubles affected his self-image, his sexdrive dropped. Not to mention I wasn't exactly a ray of sunshine last year. That must have had it's impact too. Though I surprisingly never lost my sexdrive; I actually craved for it!

Nowadays; yes. And that's difficult. There's seriously no fun riding someone that's barely awake :( And I think I can beat many men on how many times I've been rejected (highscore! ;)). Given his healthissues, the last thing he needs is sex as a chore. So we decided we will not have sex, only when we both really want to. As difficult as this may be; if there's anything I've missed most, it's the intimacy: that little warm touch or hug that had turned cold; the way we used to be so close that had become so distant; his eyes that used to sparkle and became empty. That intimacy has returned to us :)

It dips every now and again but we're usually up for it.
No sex is never stale and I doubt such a thing really exists but we're well matched.
And our healths remain great (claws crossed) so the quality is oooo la LA!

hasn't gone stale.....it's changed since we've first gotten together because of the busy lives we live.....i'm working and traveling alot, she's in medical school, but we still make the time to enjoy each other....we still accomplish having sex at least 2 to 3 times a week.....and if not a busy week, more
at first I can say that sex drives were kinda of mismatched and still kinda are with me having the higher sex drive but i'm strong enough to abstain for a few days.....which is how much time it is until she'll want to have sex again....in the meantime, i focus on other things that need to be done[/color]
