I know my husband could have sex every day if I wanted him to, but more as a take-it-or-leave-it thing. I would say that his honest threshold of desire is maybe once every 2-3 weeks. Seriously. I usually break the ice well before we get to that point but there have been times when life has gotten in the way, I've been sick, or whatever and I let time slip by and I notice he doesnt really seem to bring it up or say anything until 2-3 weeks have passed. He used to not be able to go that long when younger (we've been together 8 years) but life has changed a lot since those days too, we've got high stress jobs and lives, always on the go, two young kids, not a lot of sleep happening, not a lot of spontaneity available either.

So anyway, just curious. It baffles me that an older man could still have such a high drive.
You consider a man in his 30s as an "older " man?

Holy Cow!!

I think I could handle every day or every other day, but I've never been with someone with a stronger drive than me.

I'm content with 2-3x/week.

Like most people... less than 1x/week and I get pissy. Sex is my happiness reset button!

I can do it everyday with my girlfriend but it would require me not to ejaculate and she's fine with that.

Hubby is 3 days, but that's not enough for me. :/. I'd like it more often. He does not get grumpy if there's ever a slow moment(mostly period time).

And you wonder why I had a thread that said people on TAM are sex obsessed. This thread is further proof......

I'd like to daily.

When she's in one of her bad moods, I still *want* to, I just don't bother initiating with her and go with Palmela Handerson instead.
