We’re a fit couple in our late 60’s, retried. How much sex is normal?

We do it three times a week on average. I could do it every day, she says even three times is too much.

She enjoys it more than me, not that I don’t enjoy. She says none of our old friends do it at all. But she’s just assuming. When we were in our 20’s to mid 30’s, we did it three times a day, almost every day. And that was mostly her overactive libido acting up. I might add that three years ago she went through a period where robust sex hurt the next day. She went to the doctor, she is fine after a short treatment, and I turned it down a notch. I take Sildenafil, with foreplay we go at it for an hour, with intercourse lasting 10 to 15 minutes.

Fatherly Advice agony auntBilly Jones has been kind enough to create a profile and address his question respectfully. I don't think it is nice to dictate what his priorities should be. Obviously sex has been front and center to Billy and his wife for 40 + years. Why would a birthday change a life time pattern. Sex is important to the Jones'. Mrs Jones' friends would do well to keep up with the Jones'.

Male anon: vehemently disagree. Sex at this stage shouldn't be as front and centre. OP is almost 70!! It would be tough to find a mistress at his age unless he is a multi millionaire. And that scenario would just complicate things beyond your comprehension. It's hard work having a mistress and a wife. 3 x/week is more than a lot of people, even younger! STOP putting all this pressure on your relationship! And ENJOY what you already HAVE!!

Keeping count is what people do when they are young and immature it’s just whatever works for you both . One week it might be theee times one week it might be once. Doesn’t matter

Andie's Thoughts agony auntThere is no normal. This is normal for you and her. She has gone through menopause and that can decrease libido and cause soreness. Three times per week is still a good amount; it’s a compromise between what you’d both prefer. I think you should take it day by day, rather than keeping count.

chigirl agony auntI dont think there is any «normal» here. People have different drives, and they are in large part due to hormones. As hormone levels change over years, sex drive also changes. But this is so individual! Anything is normal.
