I'm a Mean Wife

DH just doesn't have the sex drive I have.  He actually admitted that once every couple of weeks was good for him, then blamed that partially on the Metformin he takes.  (I suggested he talk to his doctor about this.)  While I understand that can put a damper on his drive, there are still two people in this relationship.

 Which is why, before he left for work this morning, I mentioned to him I better get some tonight or I would do it myself with some battery operated assistance.

    Let him watch and see if he gets revved up - there's no harm in that.

    That revs him up... but then it ends up wham, baam, thank you ma'am.

  • So when he does muster the drive to have sex, he's a minute man?  No

     If I get myself off and he doesn't help?  Yep.

    Nope, that's just plain selfishness.  Has nothing at all to do with sex drive.

    This would not fly with me at ALL.

    Make sure you finish up. I am all about BOB's (battery-operated-boyfriends) Because when I get it from him and I have been working it myself, it is great for both but I can not speak for the whole.

  • I'm all for toys, but they shouldn't replace your H.  Perhaps you should talk to him like an adult, not like he is a child.

  • If he is not into it and you are, take care of your needs. I know of men that don't get it from their wives and they go ahead and jag in the shower. Does that make them a hag too? No, makes them HORNY!!

     It was more teasing than it came across here.

     We talked about it tonight, after friggin' awesome sex, and he said he figured I was partially teasing.

    I can't understand why some men rush through sex.  It's like a great meal or a favorite hobby; you need to spend some time enjoying it.

    I agree with this.

    Me either. I could not be with a man that was soley concerned with getting himself off during sex. I would run far away, fast.

  • I'm on Metformin, and it hasn't done anything to my sex drive. I just went a looked up side effects, and nothing to do with a sex drive came up. IF he really feels that it's affecting it, he should talk to the doc, because that's no way to live. And I tend to agree that letting him watch you have fun with a vibe might get him to play along. Been there, done that. It works.

    I feel your pain. My DH doesn't have the drive because of a hereditary thing in his family. The guys in his family quit playing with the "full team" after a certain age and the drive just isn't there.

    We've only been married  7 months, and it's the biggest strain on our marriage. We go weeks without it because of him, and it makes me so emotional because I feel stressed out that he doesn't want it.
