I *love* banana splits. Every time I walk into an icecream parlor, I'll order a banana split. Yum.

But, if I had a banana-split machine at home, would I have one every day? Probably not. I might for the first few weeks, until I just got sick of them. Too much. It's the same with the sex.

But, in a relationship, it's not just one person's desires controlling - it's a partnership, a give and take. In your case, you want it more than he does...it happens. All I can say is to be open and honest about what you want, but don't expect your partner to perform for you just because you want it. Having two kids can take a heck of a toll on things.

And, I've gotta stand up for the guys with desk jobs. You didn't say exactly what kind of desk job he has, but - don't think that a desk job is necessarily a walk in the park. Thinking about something for eight (or whatever) hours at a go, dealing with the stress of meeting deadlines, dealing with managers and coworkers, meeting the responsibilities placed on you - that can be just as draining as eight hours of physical labor, and it probably pays a heck of a lot better than if your man were working at some physical job.
