Back again . . .

I posted on here probably sometime last fall or before that - I can't remember.  Not sure if anyone else remembers - but I had virtually a sexless marriage you could say.  DH was on medication - and we just weren't doing it because he was never in the mood.  Well - I also had problems O'ing. I don't think I ever said that before.  But - I seem to get a little something and then it's like - oh - that's it?  It bothered me - but never enough to really look into it.  I just figured it was my weight or something.  Well - we are now trying to do it at least once a week.  And I always figured what ever I got I got.  It felt good no matter what!  Before we literally would go months and months without it!  I think once we went at least 5 or 6 months without it!  Um - yeah I know - not good.  We don't do that anymore.  Well a couple of weeks back I actually had a major O.  In fact, I think it was my first major O with my husband in about 3 or 4 years!  It actually affected me so much I was overcome with emotion.  I figured out what was different too - stress.  For the past 3 years at least - I've been in debt and paying off credit cards and loans from before me and my husband were married.  Well - wouldn't ya know - now I've paid EVERYTHING off and the only things I owe on are the typical stuff - cell phone, mortgage - stuff acquired with my husband and NO credit cards.  I'm finally able to put alot more money in the bank.  Who woulda thunk that stress like that was doing so much to my sex life!

  • I think that people forget that your brain and your genitals are wired together.   Your brain was too preoccupied to allow yourself to be in the moment with your husband and prevented you from fully enjoying yourself.

    Congrats and may you have many more orgasms! 

  • Wow. So great to hear a positive story this AM. So happy for you. Have an extra O or two for me this week. Again, congratulations!!!

  • That is great news!!! Stress truly is a sex drive killer! The ironic thing is that sex is such a great stress relief, but we don't really want it when we're so stressed out. I read a book that said that even if you are really stressed or going through a hard time with your SO, you should have sex even if you don't feel like it because it will bring you closer and help you cope with the stress or loss. Not saying I've done that....lol. but it sounded like it had logic.
  • I remember you! And I'm so glad to hear that things are much better. Here's hoping for more good sex in your future!
  • That is really great news ! Smile
