My OH is away and it' been two weeks since I had sex and I have at least another week to go and the thought is killing me. Masturbating just isn't doing it for me for some reason....I want the real thing. I realise that two weeks, even three weeks without sex for some people is nothing and in my past I've gone a lot longer than this and it hasn't bothered me. Don't know what's wrong with me but it's really frustrating.

The frustration about being apart is always the greatest just before you get together. Let me suggest the frustrating part isn't the sex. The sex and the release of sex is being partially replaced by masturbation. The frustrating part is actually about being apart, not being able to hold him, to hug him, to kiss him. Not being able to feel protected, to not be able to protect him, to not be able to share a meal or a laugh together. Not being able to go forward hand in hand. Not being able to wake up with him beside you and think of how lucky you are.I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.

Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?

I totally get where your coming from.
I'm also extremely frustrated. My husband is deployed over seas and I haven't had sex in 6 months lol. Im so sick of masturbation and the occasional times we may get to skype and his roommate it out of the room, so we have "skype sex" pretty much the same as masturbation.
Just keep your head up, youll get through it and when you finally have sex it will all be lifted away lolComment

Yikes, I can't imagine two weeks without sex (let alone 6 months!). I love masturbation but I have to admit it's a stopgap measure, so I can't really say how I'd react to masturbation only. Not well, I imagine. Hugs to you two!Comment

I say get your self if you don't already have a good vibrator with extra batteries to help with the pleasure of the big O till your lover comes home. Sometimes the fingers do not do it any longer you need some good buzzing of the clitoris for a bit to get you over for the next complete week.When out driving always turn left. Then, should you become lost, you can find your way home by reversing the procedure and always turning right.Comment

We spent many years in your shoes. I deployed quite a bit with a couple 6 month adventures.
It's tough and I agree that it's tough.
But the reward is worth it. Let your imaginatiComment

Oh yes Jenn the I phone video camera is great for the good few minutes sex video and then cloud it to the TV or tablet to re watch it can be very erotic and exciting to view again.When out driving always turn left. Then, should you become lost, you can find your way home by reversing the procedure and always turning right.Comment
