Men don't like to be rejected either. And I think men have a much higher sex drive than women so the chance that you would get rejected if initiating is slim to none while if a man initiates sex he is alot more likely to get rejected.

Incorrect. The correct wording should be that SOME men have a higher sex drive than SOME women.

I could have sex 24/7. I have a much higher drive than that of my husband. I also had a higher sex drive than my ex-boyfriend.

I find it interesting that you seem to be ignoring certain posts here and only answering certain ones. It's like you don't want to hear what they have to say.

I always have to initiate sex because my boyfriend has the lowest sex drive I could imagine anyone having without actually have no drive at all.
I can probably count the number of times he's initiated sex with my fingers... on one hand. And even then, the sex is bad because he never actually wants to do it.
I'm tired of "pity sex".
Although we are seeking a urologist out to test his hormone levels and what-not, I just wanted to point out again that there really is no "normal" expectation of sexual desire based on being male or female.

I know plenty of women who desire sex more than their male counterparts. Actually, I can't think of an instance where I've known a couple in which the male desired more sex than the woman.
Men, by social stereotype, might be expected to talk about it more, but that does not translate into truth in the bedroom.

Have you ever considered that maybe you desire too much, and ask too much? Even women who love to have sex and initiate have their limits. Perhaps some respect on your part is required.

You're hung up on an idea that isn't true for every male and every female. I initiate sex (or did, I should say) almost everyday. Only to get rejected. Finally I stopped.

I'm right there with you... unfortunately.

Ugh. I feel ya. Pity sex is worse than no sex at all. It's worse than being shot down actually.

HAahahahahahahahaha
I needed a good laugh.

[sourpuss]

I wish I could laugh. It's more just frustrating at this point.

i initate it. not so much now that I'm single but...withh my ex I used too most of the time

Based on many discussions it seems pretty evenly split between men or women wanting more sex. Its a real problem for couples when their interest in sex is very different, regardless of which partner wants more.

The kind that mellows out and leads into a nice cry. Aw relief.
