Question - (17 September 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 18 September 2008)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I only have sex once a week. I don't ever turn him down but he only tries once a week... we haven't been together that long, only 5 months. Is this normal? Everyone I have been in a relationship with before him wanted it at LEAST twice a week, usually more so I don't really have anything to go on..he is 30. Maybe this is normal..? I don't know..

DoubleM agony auntIt's barely normal enough. Everyone has different degrees of sexual drive and I think that about three times weekly is a good average in your age bracket. So, maybe your short-time bf is a bit less active, but it is entirely up to you if that is personally sufficient.

I don't think there is any such thing as 'normal', only what the couple wants. If you feel you are getting enough sex, then it is ok. If you aren't, maybe ask him what really turns him on.

dc.ryan agony auntHello,

I wouldn't see this as a problem or abnormal at all. When me and my partner were first together - it was once a week, it took a while for us to get used to each other; what we liked/disliked..

Perhaps he feels you only want to be having sex once a week, or not at all - perhaps he is getting the wrong impression from you? Why not try starting something with him, instead of him starting something on you - be adventurous & tease etc; I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
