What my mom said just really worried me because it in part made me feel like it's all guys care about. Which would suck.
True intimacy isn't ONLY physical, it also touches on mental, emotional and spiritual aspects, all at the same time. You've clearly never had intimacy at its absolute best. I have, and there is no experience like it that can compare. You have to have been through it to really understand.

What's normal is relative.

It's all a matter of opinion.

*I* know that. I am asking the OP as to how does it sound normal to her.



If this is her normal, that'd be one thing, but I'm seeing now she's apparently a virgin?

It also kind of bothers me how my mom used the importance of sex in a relationship as an excuse for cheating.
I can guarantee you that if you carry what you are saying here into a marriage you WILL wind up getting cheated on, because your husband will find a side woman who is into him enough that she'll be ready able and willing any time he is. Either that, or he will make it official and leave.

My moms friend whose husband cheated on her told her that he thinks he “helped” her by cheating on her because he thinks he made her realize how she needs to work on herself so she can satisfy him more and look appealing to him again. absolutely gross. and she isn’t divorcing him either, she wants to stay with him.

Where the hell did you get that idea? lol

I've actually been celibate by choice for a few years, but when I'm in love with someone and around them, I want sex every day usually. Sometimes multiple times a day.

I get that. But would you really want to do that after marriage and kids and years of marriage. and would you want to kind of be expected to it because men are men.
