If you bring up these statistics with your wife it will GUARANTEE that you get no sex.

Who cares about statistics?? My husband and I have been together 8 years and have sex once a week, on rare occasions twice. We're 28 and 29. If it were up to me we'd be having it more, but my husband has a lower sex drive than I do and is usually too tired when he comes home from work. Do I confront him with a list of times we had sex and statistics about what OTHER couples are doing? NO.

You guys have two kids...how much do you help out with them? Moms with young kids are usually exhausted. Maybe take the kids and go somewhere once in a while so she can have time to herself.

I understand your frustration, I really do because I've been the one who's been frustrated. But you really just have to compromise and realize it's not the most important thing.

Also, IMO 15 times in 6 months isn't that bad. It's not like she's not having sex with you at all.
