This thread may possibly be age related....and I think the whole women not having a sex drive is a myth anymore and a byproduct of a more demure time.

Especially as you age and get comfortable with your body, your wants and needs. Not to mention if you don't have to worry about pregnancy anymore and can honestly communciate about things.

No wonder some of these poor hubbys are getting worn out.

Sex is extremely important to me. Though I'm married now, I have never been with a guy who wanted it as much as I did . I could just lie in bed and have sex all day. Matter of fact, before we had all these kids, my husband and I used to take a day off together, rent a hotel for the day, and do just that. Yup...if marriage doesn't diminish your sex life then children DEFINITELY will. With one it's still manageable...but we have three. And yes, in the past, I have left boyfriends because they wouldn't give me enough sex or because their skills were not up to par.

I don't tend to want sex too often if I'm not in a relationship, but once I feel strongly about someone I can't do it often enough.

I don't get it enough. My boyfriend is oblivious to my needs and I hate that I have to ask for sex. Im the one to initiate 98% of the time, and he never makes any effort to seduce or touch me the way i want to be touched. I am sad because every guy that I have ever dated has always found me very desirable, and I feel like I am losing my sex appeal because this man does not give me the time of day.

Very important and want it at least daily and more often other days

I couldn't date someone I wasn't sexually compatible with in terms of frequency and "style." My life is pretty great these days, and the only reason I really would want someone in my life would be to add a sexual component. I have a loving circle of family and friends (and frankly have trouble keeping up with all of them); I have enough money to see to my immediate needs; I have too many activities to count. I also have a very high sex drive. I'm not saying I just want a sex-only relationship, but the main thing driving me to seek a partner is the fact that I want a committed sexual relationship. There's nothing else that's really lacking in my life. So if I was to have a relationship, the sex would be very important - at the top, or near the top, of the list.

It's time for you to find the right man, who loves you, cherish you, respects you...

I'm just curious to see if women think sex is as important as men think.
I have to like someone enough in the first place
to find out if we're compatible in bed-it doesn't work the other way 'round.
I don't go to bed with a guy, then if that's gone well, search for positive qualities in other domains.

How often varies; could be 2x in one day, then 1x in 2 weeks.
It depends on my health, my cycle, numerous factors (which have little to do with the merits of a given partner)-
as well as how well that partner & I are getting along above the sheets,
plus how well we connect beneath the sheets.
If I'm not liking a guy (in some way or other), I'm not going to get naked with him.

Sex is critical component of a relationship for me, yet it can't trump the many other necessary features of the person.
If we can't have a good verbal discourse, chances are we won't be having any sort of intercourse.

Rules may differ for a FWB situation, but that is not my ultimate goal,
I want an LTR in which I really like the guy & we get to know each other as people.

Very very important to me. I would become extremely depressed if we're together and did not do it enough. I am single now and it's been so hard to cope with the lack of intimacy and sex...I can only imagine if I were in a relationship and still not doing it.
