Needless to say I am HD. Unfortunately my husband is ND and I would imagine sex only crosses his mind a couple of times a year. Maybe if I trained myself to not think about sex every spare moment I would lower my drive..hmm interesting concept!
I am in the same boat as you and I can tell you that trying to train yourself to not think about sex is pointless. Do what I did, start writing ****ty romance novels as an outlet

I think about sex quite often, at least 20 times a day. I feel like i am perpetually aroused with no help in sight, since i am not attracted to my husband. In fact his and my kids presense dampen my arousal. Understandable and normal to have that reaction from the kids' presense, but not his.

It seems us women that hang about on this forum are all on fire with high drives and overactive imaginations!

Lucky to those who have spouses evenly matched..not so lucky for the rest of us who seem extremely mismatched with our SOs.

Absolutely!

I suspect the less you get sex the more you think about it. When I was in my early 20's and with a girl who loved sex and we did it atleast once a day , I can't remember thinking about it all the time because it was just 'there'. I suppose its a bit like if you love red wine and have a glass every evening...because you KNOW you will get you wine every evening you don't think about it during the day....but if you reall want it and know you're not going to get it, then it becomes a big thing.

Anom, I'm mid forties, get it maybe once a month, want it 2-3 times a week.....I think about it far far more now than I did when I was 20 and getting it every day!

My wife probably thinks about it once a month...

No, you just join sex forums and yak about it all day. Seriously this is pretty much why I landed here....I was in search of a serious minded articulare Sex forum that I could seek my teeth into...Cause other wise, I would have gotten sucked into porn sites, which... would have been less healthy for me.

I believe this to be true also... although for ME.. it wasn't.... got it near every day, but wanted it 3 times a day. So yeah... sex forums were alot of Fun, then I found myself addicted here.

At the beginning of this frenzy .... I was buying books upon books about sex, hormones, how to please my husband.. anything to spice it up so I could get MORE sex out of him...got quite the education.... I think I bought about 30 in the 1st year, I was addicted to the subject...so I felt I had a nice amount to contribute to these forums....and here I have remained.

I am really trying to tame this horse because I know it's a good thing (and coming to that realization is NOT easy). I do not want to lose it, but hey we've all got stuff to do.

So, with my slightly calmer mentality, also having college son back home and needing some attention as a distraction, I think about it...every 5 min? My h? Hmmm, every 5 days? What is the ratio there? Let''s better not do the math.

OK, so now I will not go near this site for the rest of the day, I promise myself! Still reading my Passionate Marriage though. Heck, at least I finished the laundry.

That was 1 of the many books I bought ....wanted some on rekindling the PASSION too (not that I needed any more, I was in overdrive) .... I noticed "Passionate Marraige" mentioned alot on this forum.

You sound like another one of those Mid life Cougars, so glad it wasn't JUST ME. I felt a little freakish when I came here & didn't dare lay my story out too strongly, I felt naked doing that... after a little time....I didn't seem to care anymore... it IS what it is. !@#$%^& Obviously other women were experiencing it too, so I wasn't alone.

To Re-vive your man during this time... would be the greatest blessing to the marriage, but he has to be receptive to it....to indulge you...to your leading.

Yeah, I found doing anything outside of was near drudgery.... I had to push myself -for a time!

LOL. I like the word cougar as long as it doesn't imply I like younger men. This is another hidden psychological fear I have every time I have lusty thoughts. My handsome dude son is walking around the house...not I have any thoughts about him (mainly I want to beg him to drive more slowly), but just having ANY thoughts in my sons' presence seems wrong. I know that's not logical but it's hard to overcome.

I think I have probably been a horny woman all my life, I just had 20 yrs of repression/suppression from many, many reasons. Feel kind of bad about wasted time. Glad I am finding my sexuality. Totally frustrated h is now LD compared to my state. But I will work on it. Oops! I said not to come back to yak by the end of day!
