Nothing wrong with it.  Enjoy it while it lasts cause you will have times like that and times you won't want it.  Me and my wife are that way.  Sometimes I am the horny one then her and sometimes both at same time then sex daily is awesome thing.  Maybe try spicing things up with sexy lingerie and stuff.  Nothign is wrong with you just your body tell you it is in heat and wants to have sex

Enjoyment of Sex is a personal thing. do you have unreasonable expectations of your partner?\nDo you expect sex all the time? or are you married with children. Each root cause has a different answer. \nThe Married issue is actually the easier to resolve. this one revolves around the fact that as a parent you have so wraped your life around your children that you have forgotten how to find personal time for your Mate. this takes just a bit of planning. Start by asking your partner out on a date for some quiet time together. then rekindle the romantic fires on a timly basis. weather it's weekly, Bi-weekly or what ever works best. \n\nIf your not married then you have a deeper issue, It's hard then to answer this question with so little information. after all each person is unique and the responce needs to be for you as a person and not as a lab rat.

Yeah I think it's normal in the broadest sense of the word. It also depends on the age of the guy as someone else mentioned. Most young dudes could use it several times a day...but that ever so gradually changes as we age. Also people are different in their sexual desire like they are different in all other areas. There are even some people (a small majority) that are asexual...they have little or no interest in sex at all. As long as he still has a reasonable interest in regular sex...yeah he is probably normal...in my usual most humble opinion!

Was he like this when you first got married? Has his sex drive dropped or stayed the same? Some men don't have a very active libido. It's usually hormonal.\n\nIf it isn't satisfying to you, try to suggest seeing a medical doctor.\n\nA person's sex drive is an individual thing. But for the record, your husband's does seem rather low for a newlywed guy. I had a friend who's husband was the same. He got help--against his wishes--but it worked.\n\nYou can't compare yourself with other couples, really, but  the average is about 3 times a week. We do it more often because my husband is a horn dog. As he ages, it is lessening though. We've been married for 20 years.

I have to kids and one on the way. Let me let you ladies know that my husband complains about my sex drive being too high..I'm 23 and he's 26 and I always want sex. So when I get it usually its good if not I tell him that he sucked in the bed and i'm sleeping downstairs. To answer the question.. every chance I can get it, but usually every 3 days.

I’m 58.  It can come with the territory. This is normal and more common than you might think.\nDon’t dwell on it.  This is the flip side of the hormone changes which is pushing the adolescents into “when am I gonna learn about sex?”\nIf it repeats and starts to disrupt you life, then seek some kind of help.  If it is just an occasional event, think about what this means to you and move on.

I would pick QUALITY over QUANTITY anyday!!! But since you asked about quantity, it varies from week to week depending on what life decides to throw at us. WE have been married for 5 years and have 7 kids. We average 3-4 times a week...some weeks its everyday..and some weeks its once.

Well I can tell ya this it don"t come easy. Married for 14 yrs w/ 2 kids. Ours is whenever we can get separated from the kids for a period of time, and even then Im usual to tired when he wants it or when I seem to want it the kids are around. But to answer your ?, I would have to say 3-4 times amonth, depending on situations. PHB

I'm married and have not had sex in a year! (Idiot for a husband) Actually, it varies from person to person due to psychology and hormones.

There's no real guide to how often to have sex.  Once a month can be fine if both partners are happy with that - same for three times a day.\n\nThere are NO health risks for having sex many times a week.  Unless you are having unprotected sex with strangers where once a month is too often.

At least once a week. It depends on my cycle. Some weeks I don't feel sexual at all and others, I can't get enough of it.

yes, it's almost the norm. in fact, NOT having sex before is seen as weird and very rare

It is as normal as possible. If u dont think about sex at this age then it is a problem. Think about sex, learn new things about sex and know more about the opposite sex. imagine to have sex in new positions. that will make you experience more thrill and satisfaction in bed to you and your partner. \nAll the best and hope u enjoy your married life.

I can have sex many times, if I don't have an orgasm. I can do it about 7 times a day. My husband caught on & will give me an orgasm before I wear him out. \n\nIf you are having orgasms, then your sex must be fantastic. Your body is most likely just used to having sex all the time, so it becomes almost a necesity.
