So, I’m in a long-term relationship with my loving partner, and everything is good, except for the matters of sex. Suffice it to say, one partner (male) has a very overwhelming sexual drive, while the other (female) needs sex like once a month (and it has always been so throughout life). Partners are monogamous and do not explore options of having a third party.

Can any good advice be derived for such cases? Is there something that can be done to improve things on each side? I would love to hear your advice.

    True; and Jesus Christ, 2-5 times a day is too much even for me lol

    We’re working out the options, but the problem is I need to know my partner is genuinely enthusiastic, which is hard when the difference in libido is so big.

    But there are attempts on both sides to bridge the gap. I appreciate her efforts and communication.

    Also, hoping your partner is doing alright now!

      Jesus Christ, 2-5 times

      The perimenopause has been brutal on me. :D She’s doing great, thanks, been in remission for two years.
