Loss of Lust

I read this article in the chateline magazine and it is a usual occurance of losing lust in a marriage...Just the whole thing of life...The male wants it 2-3 times a week and the woman just doesn't. Do tyou feel this way in your marriage? I feel like I'm in a slump but I still want it most of the time...What about you! Do you agree with chateline?

I get aggravated by those types of studies. They are generalizations. No two people are alike, no two marriages are alike. My husband was quite the player when he was single. And he was always wanting it back when he was drinking all the time. Then he lost interest and I was the one who had to keep track and make appointments to ensure I got it at least once a week (I'd be happy with twice a week). By the way, we've been married 10 years, together for 15. Well, last January he started jogging. Then in the spring he joined a gym. He goes every day. He has energy, stamina, lost weight and an increased s*x drive. That's right, he has regained his interest. Losing weight and exercising and made him come alive again. But he is rarely the one that "starts it". It's usually me, though he has had his moments. Everyone is different and I think those studies are just bogus.

Thanks for the comment, I think an increase in physical activity always helps the drive and urge. For me it is reading the good magazines and books with all the fun stuff in it. My husband use to be like that very low drive, Now it seems to be the opposite and i'm sure its our child...the youngest she keeps me up at night 2-3 times a night so when I finally get to sit down and relax thats exactly what i want to do and then I end up going to sleep!!!!Boring me but there are days when that is all I can think about...like today and he will be getting some tonight!!!Have a good evening...I know I will.

Research tells that males are more interested in *** than on other things. so it is common to feel like that. It is not that women doesnot want they want but the timing should be proper like when to ask, what mood they are in etc. Womens are the most complexly built systems around so it is very difficult to understand them.

well.... its a common feeling in every case....the excitement and intensity is more only at the beginning but the progress of it depends on how we take it to be.... So if you getting married only to sleep with your partner then i dont think thats a good idea.... Becouse you get married to the person whom you wanna spend the whole life with.... not with whom we wanna juz enjoy our time....
