It sure seems like you are frightend by the thought of long term sex and feel it's a requirement you are expected to perform.

The thought of being the sole source of a man's sexual gratification frightens me. When I come home from work, all I want to do is take a hot shower and go to bed.... and that's exactly what I do 90% of the time. But I know if I get married, I'll be expected to be a sex kitten or risk my husband getting his needs met in the streets.
I would worry if I was your long term partner. Maybe it's just the fear of the unknown.

I know a couple that had that problem. He worked out of the home, and she'd get home from a long day at work, which involved standing all day, and he'd expect her to be ready for action. What happens in situation like that, OP, is you negotiate. You compromise. And I think that will a spouse who also works outside the home, a situation like that's less likely to happen. Both will arrive home after a long day, and will want to unwind and recharge their batteries. Investing in a hot tub to soak in together may address the problem quite nicely.

And you never know what would happen to your sex drive once you get into a relationship. You might surprise yourself.

Put your relationship first, always. House, chores, friends, even kids - they come 2nd for us. It males a happy home.
Thank you.

Since you are not my partner, I guess you don't have anything to worry about, now do you?

Thank you for your response.
