    how sexually satisfied are you?

    For the first 31 years of my life I'd been very sexually frustrated. I was shy while growing up so I never talked to girls, even the hot ones. I always just relied on fantasizing about the attractive girls I knew when I went home. By my early to mid 20s I had managed to ask a few girls out, but I was pretty awkward and they weren't interested. I finally discovered pornography around age 25 (yes a bit late) and became addicted as it was my only release.

    Everything changed till I met my girlfriend. At first I didn't even bother since she was so hot, I figured 'uglier girls have shot me down, so just keep her in your spank bank, buddy.' But she saw me looking at her and obviously didn't realize my lustful intentions and she came over to talk. The rest of course is history.

    We have sex several times a week, and always have at least 2 rounds. I can't say there's anything I'd want to be different. I'm totally satisfied and I can't believe I was once dumb enough to think porn was all I could be satisfied with.

    So how satisfied are people here with their sex lives on a scale of 1-10? I would say I'm a 20, lol, but I'm serious! Is it normal to be that happy with sex?

    It is entirely normal to be happy with that sex. I am a 11/10 personally I am more than sexually satisfied, my husband is pretty much the best sexual partner I could have he can do the quickie and he can do the long love session. We have sex on average between 3-4 times a week and we try to make it exciting with games, roleplay , lingerie, lap dance and striptease. I am very happy with my sex life and the fact it is with the love of my life who I've known since we were teenagers and have been married to for 8 years makes it that bit better.
    It's all fun and games until you mess with a Portuguese girl.

      I have to say I'm about a 3.5 - 4 out of ten to be honest..... when wife & I do have sex it's great, but it's usually once every week or 2... she has no interest in stroking my penis, or giving me oral sex - and because she is having problems with her knee / back we are limited to missionary.....
      if she is in the mood, I will stimulate her clit and suck on her nipples so she orgasms, then the will move over to my side of the bed and I will get on top of her and we will have sex intil I climax.
      I'd love to have sex 3-4 times a week, but she complains that we go to bed to late, or she is tired... she's not a morning person and we usually sleep in intill we have to get up to go to work....
      it's a touchy subject with her I think

        muffin- firstly I like your avatar pic. Secondly I think once your wife's back problem get's better then I think your love life will get better and you can try different positions more and experiment. I had a back problem once which slowed down the sex life and made it less enjoyable but once my back healed it was amazing again. As for your desire to get to 3-4 times a week maybe you should try quickies with her?

          Have you ever had a good friend who was certain of something and you were certain he or she was wrong? You try logic, you try emotions, you try other methods but nothing gets through. I considered you that friend and it was very frustrating.

          The kicker of the situation is that if you had never found a girl who you liked and who liked you, you could well have gone on for a long time being totally satisfied with masturbation, not realizing what having a good sex life with a SO that you like or love is like.

          A lot of the satisfaction can be laid to brain chemicals per current scientific theory. However, knowing how things work is not necessary to get them to work for you. As your relationship continues, the highs may not be as high, but they will be replaced with a sense of total contentment.

          When you get in a strong relationship that is very satisfying you will find that your ideals have changed to fit that person if you do an examination of your thinking and feelings.

          Myself, I would like my sex life more if I didn't have ED to contend with. You take what life gives you and go on.
          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?

          From a speech by Patrick Henry on March 23, 1775 at St. John's Church, Richmond, Virginia

            Yes it is, Especially when you know how unsatisfying it can be with a different partner. I have had partners on both ends of the scale. Very sexual with very high drive, others very stiff, very conservative or with low drive. Sex and passion is critical to a great long term relationship. My current GF the sex varies, some days its 4 or 5 times in a day others zero. Rarely 2 days in a row without lately. Even had FMF threesomes with this wonderful woman so I have had it pretty darn good. Right now I got to rate it a 9.5. Right on a_dub count your blessing and keep this relationship strong. Keep it going

              Yea why not i am almost 50 married 27 years and I very happy with my sex life. It's what you put into it with your relationship is what you will get out of it. So many people try to over think if you having sex to much or to little well what does your wife or girl friend think ask her if she complaining then do something by giving it to her more to make her happy.

                I had surgery and between the initial problem, the surgery, and the complications we will likely be stuck with 4 months of no sex.

                  I am sorry to read that Kira i hope a speedy recovery to you. But you can still cuddle right and kissing use your fingers correct.

                    We've done some mutual masturbation but even that is a little uncomfortable. He has to flatten at least one of my legs to the bed to do oral and the problem is a large incision in my lower spine. Although without all the gauze packed in it anymore it no longer feels like someone is digging a rock in to me when i lay on my back.
