Inexistance

How many times a week does the average couple make love?

Konichiwaneko

really depends on the couple. My exes, and my current girlfriend is about 2 or 3 times a day, even after half a year or so.

Some people are perfectly content just 2 times a week.

That seems like a bit much 2 or 3 times a day.

It's kinda tough to ask for someone opinion on a personal matter, they tell you their personal preference, and then you criticize it... I'm just saying.

NOTE: Information for discussion is required to help get this thread off the ground - why do you care how many times the average couple has sex in a week?


Inexistance ... why dop you say it seems a bit much for 2-3 times a day?

maybe some of the factors that can be given to get this discussion going:

- Your age

- How long you've been together

- Living circumstances - LD, daily, kids, etc ...


I'm personally not in a relationship so can't give a current answer.

I don't know, you would have to ask the average couple. My relationship doesn't qualify. It's anything but average. Who is the average couple anyway?

My other seems to want to have sex more than me. Im ok with 2 times a week but she feels every night. Its just a little much for me. I want to see whats normal I guess.

Konichiwaneko

Individuals sex drives once again are different, and honestly sometimes it really affects a couples chemistry.

You should talk to her about it, but not if you're about to have it. The next few times you may have to start it, but if you keep her needs in your head you might work it out.

With my ex (ex of less than a week actually), if we had sex less than 4 times a day she'd think that something is wrong. We'd hear her friends trying to brag about how they would have sex twice in one night, and we'd just look at each other and smirk.

Four times a day? You must be students with nothing else to do, eh? I remember those times... Damn, fun times.

As for us... well, we only see each other weekends, and then it's 2-4 times over 3 days, basically. When we are together for a whole week, it's probably 3-5 times, though sometimes it will be once a day when we're really in the mood.

Well, I'm a student, she is actually a lawyer. Granted it wasn't 4 times every day all week, we'd get together about 4-5 days a week though.

We were both the type to get turned on at a moments notice. We'd be watching a movie and she'd just start to go down on me, or we'd be in a restaurant and I'd whisper the things I was going to do to her that night. Little things like that kept us pretty much ready to go at all times.

The only problem sexually was she was always horny in the morning, and for me sex in the morning is a chore (as I'd much rather sleep). However, she learned that if she woke me up with a bj and then mounted me it worked fairly well.

In my case it would be the other way around. She would be happy with 1-2 times a week and I would be happier with every night. 4 kids and a 9-10 hours of work make for a long day for us. Currently, we are intimate 1-2 times per week. Guess she wins.

Thank God for porn and tissues.

Married long enough to have two adult offspring and a teenager. Neither one of us gets as much as we'd like. It seems like it's always something!

I was going to post but thought I should wait a couple years until my relationship turns sexual and I can actually contribute instead of ask for hypothetical advice xD.

absorbentishe

On average, about 4 - 5 times. Some weeks it's more, others is less.

FYI: There is no such thing as normal, and I would bet money the people that would be members of a forum that has sexuality as one of the main focuses would skew the averages higher. There are people attracted to this site because they aren't having sex and want information, etc. There are more here because they are very interested in sex.

How much sex is normal?

As much as one can stand, or as much as their partner can. The lesser of the two.

We average some sort of sex three to four times a week, and little bits of foreplay a bit more frequently than that.

About 3-4 times a week. Like someone else said, some times it's more, sometimes it's less. We're a married couple in our mid-20's. Been together for over 8 years. No kids.

HoneyPot

I feel like I'm in a drought b/c ususally my lover and I are busy 5-7 times a week, but not that finals are here and school has really taken over our lives, we are only making love 2 times... Sometimes I feel rejected b/c I'm always up for it, like anytime, anywhere. Thats the way I've always been. But then again I think its a matter of how much you love someone that matters.... like how many times a week do you tell your partner you love them? But then again, I'm a hopeless romantic.

Toaster126 and Supple Cow nailed it. I wish I could be so elegantly concise!

The gf and I average about 4 times a week minimum since we see each other Thursday through Sunday, mainly in the evenings. We're both usually exhausted after back to back sessions, haha.

Who cares what's "normal" or "average"? Do it as often as feels comfortable/desirable to you and your partner. That's all that matters.

might be going off topic a little..
but what should you do if your partner is less into sex than you are?
and you found out they've only been having sex with you to satisfy your needs? not really because they felt like it too.
