I though that once a week was already bad, damn i guess it can get worse still.

Before we had kids once a week was bad. Since having kids, a week goes by so fast it’s too easy to go that long without having sex. I’m determined not to let it go a month unless absolutely necessary(like injury/surgery etc) but kids absolutely f with a woman’s libido. If me and my partner get away for a weekend or even a few hours that libido comes roaring back. It goes into dormancy when my kids are around and by the time they’re in bed I’m in switch off mong out in front of tv mode. It’s a sad truth but in long term relationships/marriages you have to make a conscious effort to prioritise your sex life or it will die. We had a great sex life before the kids came along and I can imagine we will rekindle that in retirement 😂 we just have to make an effort to keep it alive in the meantime. That sounds depressing but the more often that we do it the more I want it (as a woman). I think there’s some internal switch in us that make it hard to have a sexual appetite when taking care of the family. But obviously that’s just my experience. There will be women who have no change in libido or maybe a change in the opposite direction.
