How important is sex to you?

How important is sex to you?


Being truly realistic, where does sex fall on your hierarchy of needs? Does it seem to become more enormously important to you as you don't get it, or do you shove it on a back burner for sanity sake and ignore it?

Because I've done it before, I know I can put it "on the back burner." Like most of us here, (I would imagine!) I prefer not to. Putting it on the back burner, for me, doesn't mean ignoring it. I've always been able... and willing... to pleasure myself if I don't have a lover with whom to share my sexual/sensual side.

I guess that would mean it's still fairly high on my "hierarchy of need."

It is the most important need: I would give up everything else for it and die a happy person.

I could never ignore it but i would say id more like adapt rather than put it on the back burner.

Perhaps you should have gone with Extremist as your name. LOL

Sex plays a big role in my life, but I think I could do without sex if I had affection and emotional love. I'm having trouble deciding which of those fall higher, as it's almost impossible for me to imagine one without the other. I suppose when separated the affection is less meaningful. Knowing someone loved me from afar would still possess great meaning.

I just ended a one year dry spell, and my feelings? "Meh".

When I'm in it, I'm in it (no pun intended). I've had lovers that I can't keep my hands off of, and the routine becomes wake up sex, a nooner, and then night time activity. If I'm lucky there's a BJ during the day once in a while.

When I'm not having sex, I have other things to occupy my mind.

Masturbating for example....

Why the dry spell? If I can be so bold to ask. You're in an open marriage, so if you weren't getting it in an outside relationship, then why not with your wife?

We have no secrets, we tell each other everything.... cue Carly Simon.

Anyway, broke up with the girlfriend a year ago. Wasn't heartbroken, but had a lot of other things going on. Opened an unsuccessful restaurant, and was dealing with the ex (she sent a bill for $5000? After stealing my truck and laptop when she left?) so it wasn't that I was sour on women in general, just a bit cynical, and ... honestly, she was the absolute best bed partner I'd ever had. Bar none, total freak, always up for it, couldn't get enough, etc. etc. Tough act to follow.

My wife-as much as I love her, and I do love her a lot, isn't all that much into sex. She has a busy schedule as I do, and it's not a priority with her like it is with me. She gladly allows me lovers, and that takes the burden off. That's a pretty simplistic answer, but it's what the story is.

That's part of my surprise when I read about how you're really not all that into your husband but you "service" him. I wish my wife would take one for the team like that.

Life goes on.

As the lead in to that ole TV show went.... "There are a thousand stories in the Naked City, and this is just one."

I hope I never understand women that aren't into sex at all. After 30 years, it just is so easy to "take one for the team."

I guess that's why she keeps putting in a pinch hitter.
