The longest you have gone?

Since being married, what is the longest amount of time you have gone without sex?

Re: The longest you have gone?

  • 6 months, after surgery.  Longest lately 2-3 weeks, we don't have kids but we tend to work too much.

  • 2 weeks when H was on medication. (mind you I don't have children either..)
  • 2 weeks once after DH had minor groin surgery. Other than that, maybe 9 days. Like the PP said, we don't have kids though.

  • It will be a little over 6 months since H is deployed.

  • 2 days. We're newlyweds who enjoy a lot of sex in our lives.

  • 3 months. I had major lung surgery. We were only married 6 months when I got hurt.
  • Six weeks and 3 days...after our baby was born.  But otherwise one week--and that was only because I was real mad at him.

  • 13 inches.  I wouldn't recommend.  It seems like a good time when you have a few drinks in you, but it just does not turn out the way you would imagine.

  • 2 weeks.

    The first we he was away on business and the second week I had come down with the flu (just my damn luck). Since then it hasn't been more than 2 days without.

  • 2 days.. yes we're newlyweds, but we've never gone more than one day being skipped even when we were engaged and dating. I'm sure that'll change once we start having kids, but I can't imagine it ever going weeks.
  • no more than a day...and we have kids :)
  • 6 weeks (after having my daughter)
  • About 6 months because my husband got seriously injured. Now I would say it's about every couple weeks... we have a 6 month old son so we are both pretty tired!
  • after i had my son, we waited 3 months, 1 day.

    since then, i think we had a 2 month dry spell too, that has since been broken (recently).

  • 5 days when I was out west and DH could not come with me.....we are newlyweds and don't have children.  We've been working hard to make one though! Wink

  • 6 weeks.  Awful reaction to BCP's, zero drive. 

    No children.

     

  • 20 days, when my H was at work in a different state.
  • 14 months during his last Deployment, but there is not much going on right now, I am 8 months pregnant and I am soooo tired all the time. Also it`s getting hard to move. 4 weeks without is no problem for me at all. I guess thats what happens after 10 years together.Confused

  • 6 months.  DH was working in another state.  When we're together I think the longest has been a week, maybe 2.  Normally it's related to schedule issues - I get randy at night and DH is a morning person.  Sometimes we forget to meet in the middle :)  No kids

  • A week and a half.

    I was on antibiotics so we tried condoms, and apparently I'm allergic to latex, because I broke out in a beyond painful way. We just started having sex again on Wednesday. [Thank goodness!].

  • 3 days... it was the worst 3 days ever. We're newlyweds but I'm getting ready to go away on business for a week so I'm soooo not looking forward to going w/out!
  • Wow! A few months (about 9) before H and I got engaged, we hit a "rough patch" and seemed to argue endlessly. Because we have both had "sex issues" in our lives, we made a pact in the beginning that we wouldn't use sex to check out from lifes problems. So, because neither of us wanted to sweep our issues with each other under the rug by having sex, we went for 6 months! The arguements didn't last as long as we did without having sex. But, in the end, it brought us closer together as friends and as lovers.

  • About 9 months. Started during my pregnancy with DD2 and lasted awhile afterwards. I just totally lost my sex drive. Poor DH!!!

  • Two months. One week in ICU and two months undergoing reconstructive surgery.

    We held hands and kissed.

  • Maybe a month without. Once when I had my IUD put in. I was very painful and bled very heavily. And the other when my husband had surgery for a REALLY bad hernia. 
  • 9 months.  DH's femur kept growing in his hip socket and he had to have reconstructive hip surgery.  Not fun at all.
