I married at the age of 40 in 1999. We had our child in 2002. *** during that time was sometimes amazing, mostly good, sometimes just ok, once in a great while just not up to par for whatever reason(s).

Post-pardem depression caused lots of problems for my now ex. She couldn''t or wouldn''t settle down to being a mom. So there''s been nothing since just 2 months after our child was born.

Had we stayed married like I wanted perhaps this would have helped, this *** every day/night whatever.

Wish we were still together to see.

First of all, like many men, I do have *** every day, whether I''m alone or not! It''s not just me.

OK, some of you still didn''t get it, I meant I will bring myself to *** alone, if I don''t have any other means.

Every day, period. The only way there is an exception is if I''m really sick.

OK, so when we first got married, and for 4 or 5 year,s we probably did have *** everyday.

They are telling the truth, it makes both partners feel great, because, for the woman, its the daily being desired, the daily touching feeling.

Well put it this way, would you turn down a massage every day? *** involves a whole lot of feel good touching so lets call it a type of massage.

I don''t know some women have hangups, but most women love ***. Anyway, but we gradully stopped doing it every day (together). Why, well, I gained some weight and felt less good. Busier lives, etc.

I don''t know if we''ll return to everyday, but it sounds like a great idea to me. We did lose some intimacy.

And yes, I definatley feel more connected through ***. If I look at my wife right now, I see a woman, who is pretty, she''s ambitous, smart. A see a woman who complains, I see a woman who yells at the kids.

When we were having *** everyday, I saw my *** partner. Thats not a bad thing, thats actually a very positive thing, she could really do no wrong :)

Indiscriminate *** will lead to heartache and disgrace.

Excellent post. But I wanted to highlight your final sentence, as you are 100% correct and that''s the one thing most people 45 or under haven''t figured out yet.

And, yes, I haven''t much ever "got any" so I do tend to obsess. That''s when I find other things to do, because reality is I''m not going to get much of any. Not at 20, 25, 30, 35, or now at 36. There''s so much that''s interesting in life that possibly, by now, I can''t even interface with other people - much less jump into bed with them. Does it matter? Not really. I''ve been called things like "freak" and "God''s little joke" all my life. Maybe because I''ve wanted marriage and building a proper life. (see, that sort of thinking is "devolved" and I''ve been called that too.)

Unlike narcissist crackpots, I am genuinely conscientious of others... Please take my tangent in stride. Reality is, some people just don''t get any, and we find ways to compensate, accept these emotions, and move on.

Back to reality, but I do want to applaud your message.

The pastor said since we failed, we weren''''t welcomed to his church. We both told the pastor about a bigger problem....since that happened, we weren''''t welcomed in KROGERS, either.

S*e*x is what makes a men feel like a man and a woman feel like a woman. I don''t know about 365 days a year, but I do know a person suffers from abstention over extended periods. Men especially. They will start to obsess about it. At my advanced age it is still important to use it and not lose it. Losing it will be a big step toward general decline and deterioration. That said, young people should be careful and practice safe ***. Indiscriminate *** will lead to heartache and disgrace.

What, is everyone on this website menopausal!? Sorry, but there are some days during that 365 day year that "IT AIN''T GOING TO HAPPEN"!? Talk about disgusting. Sorry, but it''s the truth. Unless you no longer have your period, 365 days a year asking a bit much (from both partners).

My wife and I were told 20 years ago, we had to adstain for 4 weeks as a condition for being accepted into a church. 3 weeks went by and she dropped a can of corn on the floor and something happened when she bent over to pick it up.

The pastor said since we failed, we weren''t welcomed to his church. We both told the pastor about a bigger problem....since that happened, we weren''t welcomed in KROGERS, either.

I know someone whose wife expects daily *** thinking that will keep him from straying. It doesn''t work! (and no, it isn''t with me).

well, maybe i would not get too bored if there was a lot of foreplay before the actual sseexx, ya know, that may not be too boring. ya, that is the key, it is not sseexx, it is foreplay for 365 days in a row......

Ha ha ha

Can not put the Letters S.....E....X
they get *** out in a story about S.E.X.

The CBS censors have abolished all kinds of words. You can''t say the first name of the current Vice President, for instance. D_ick becomes ***. There are lots of words that aren''t allowed - unless you work at CBS and write the articles that include them.
The ultimate double standard!

"they averaged s3x three times a month"

LOL 3 times a month that''s pathetic! Of course maybe the guy was getting some on the side that the wife doesnt know about.
One or more of my partners and I do it every night, never gets boring, good for the bod!

Jeez...people seem to misunderstand SO much...it''s not the act of *** itself that matters. It''s the connection, the expression of feeling, the communication. By taking steps to fortify their *** life, these two couples strengthened the bond between each other. But it wasn''t the act itself, it was the attention they were paying to each other REGARDING the act... I hope that makes sense to people out there. *** is NOTHING without connection, communication, empathy, etc. These people could likely have experienced the same positive benefits by committing to work every day on better communication and empathy with each other. As a result, their love life would probably have improved.

If these people had approached the commitment by making the act of lovemaking mechanical and a "chore," they would have probably become more estranged from each other.
