He wants it more than I do
Hi all,
My hubby is a very sexual person and I used to be too when we first met but 7 years later, a kid and getting older has changed me sorry to say. I'm still attracted to my man but I find sex with him more as a job than something I want to do unless I'm in the mood. I am very content with having occasional sex but now that I'm his wife he wants to throw that the fact that I should be giving him sex at least 3 times a week now. The last thing I want to do is have sex with him and fake it as I'd like to enjoy it as well. I now have an attitude and he can't understand what the problem is. Please help!
Re: He wants it more than I do
Have you ever masturbated?
I am guessing you never have.:)
Start --- and I guarantee you you'll be psyched for sex when you find out all the "new" whys and wherefores. And then show him.
You need to meet him halfway --- pick up the ball on this -- when he's in the shower jump in with him; I am sure a quickie once a week or so -- in addition to the usual sex --- won't be a big inconvenience to you.
Romance is all about stimulating the senses: sight, smell, touch, sound and taste.
If you don?t feel the need of an intimate night, most likely is because you don?t feel the romance.
Tell him how you feel and that he should do more than just telling you to give him some.
If you put a little romance in the middle it will be more easily.
I am the same with my DH. Been together 10 years married 2. For me I think its more of a stress thing. I tend to let life get in the way of what really matters and it can leave me feeling drained. Just be open with him and ask for understanding. Sometime my DH has to push himself on me, sounds worst then I intend, But once he is kissing me and such I get out of my head and enjoy that moment. It is hard to keep the intimacy after so many years. Though I am still very young, I just don't need the physical side as much as I need the emotional support to work through stuff.
Sometimes if I get in a real slump I tell my DH I am going to get a massage, my nails done, or just get my hair done up. Then when I return after having been pampered and feeling good I jump him. Its about quality not quantity, my DH words. Do something that makes you feel sexy and powerful it will help. Good luck
