    As many times as they want to! Also in as many ways, positions and places... Life's too short not to enjoy themselves!

    Surely you just do it when you want too!!

    Ha!! I wish it were that simple.... :rotfl: my fella would probably get it 4 times a year if we relied on me just wanting to do it. It's generally a bit more of a conscious effort on my part & i know that some of my friends feel exactly the same way. I would love it if sex was always a spontaneous thing - but sadly my endocrine system has other ideas so sometimes we have to work at it. :)
  • I read a book somewhere that said if 2 couples have very differrent drives to discuss it and come up with a compromise. So say Y wants to have sex twice a week and X (see what I did there with the Y & X???) fancies it 5 times then try 4 times one week and 2 the following.

    I think it ebbs and flows I think, sometimes several times a day and others when there's stress on the horizon less!

    Also women are on a bit of a backfoot really as well we first meet and fall in love we secrete hormones which send our sex drive sky high but once the relationship settles we start secreting different hormones which lowers our sex drive. After this point women should try to get into it and let the feelings grow rather than expecting to be feeling frisky to start with.

    Phew hope that makes sense!

    Wife and I generally do it about 2-3 times a week and about 4-5 times a week with the girlfriend.

    Are they both aware of this? :eek:

    I'm not sure, i would hazzard a guess at probably not.

    I assume that if they did know of each other my figure of approx 8 x per week would be vastly reduced and i would no doubt be doing the act solo from then on.

    *chuckles* fair enough - I ask because my friend was in a situation where he wasn't getting enough from his wife so she allowed him to have a sex buddy. Not something I'd be comfortable with - I don't like sharing and generally have a high sex drive anyway - but it worked for them!
