I've been at it with rabbits.

Does that constitute any kind of merit?

No way i could or would want to keep up with that pace, "not that you've really defined humping like rabbits?"

Kinda what i ws thinking.

To some humping like rabbits is "yei i get sex this week!".

To me, rabbit style is doing it until you run out of hydrate , oxygen or energy....stock up and continue :D

But, i think this whole sex thing(unless applies) is a circular pattern.

At young age, sexdrive ain't kicked in.(pre 15)
Then it kicks in overdrive. (15-21)
Then it fades but goes on strong.(21-25)
Then it just goes to the backburner.(25-35)
Then it's off more or less.(35-40)
Then it goes back to overdrive. (40-....etc etc etc)

And also very personal. I never was one to go for sex, unno why, never just felt the "must have sex" urge.

Not that i didn't date a bi-semi-nympho but...different story.

oh and bi-semi-nymph \o/

As for the 35-45 age range "for guys" I've heard that to actually, that thats the typical lowest sexdrive period "ED at higher ages excluded" for modern men, guess it's due to stress ? as in work both on the job and well building and providing for the familly and often this where you tend to have teenage kids, that house you wanted, 2 cars, the big screen tv, ect yada yada and so on, so basicly this is often the period where you'll have the largest amount of steady bills to pay. and the largest stress factors ?

I noticed this topic in one of the student forums I occasionally look at and the results were rather amusing in that every guy and girl seemed to be adamant that sex does not matter in a relationship.

So, let's turn the tables and ask semi-sane adults - does sex matter?

Im one of those (!)

And I say we are all missing the point!!

It is all about matching each other. If you are both ok with little amounts of sex. Fine. If you both want loads. Fine. Its when one wants/needs different to the other that it all starts to go a bit pete tong imo

things "and especially sexdrives" do change alot from 18 to say being 30 and well can only imagine post 30. things do tend to slow down somewhat, and I very much disagree that sex in anyway defines a relationship. i do think it's an important part and "for me" a part that needs to be present for it to work in the long run, as I'm not willing to live in celebicy.. but I dont put much worth into how often or how great it is "I used to" but these days the mental and emotional conection between my GF and I plays a much more important role infact there are tons of things that define/ are improtant to our relationship before sex, thats not to say that our sex life isnt great, it is, but sometimes and even for long periods, it can "not saying it does" but can very easily take a back seat to other things.

Yes, but very often it is between 18-25 that long-term relationships are born and grown, I mean I am sure a lot of our parents met at university/around that age? The foundations are made at that age and when you truly feel love for someone the relationship can "slow down a bit" per se.

Does this mean when I turn 18 people will stop telling me my relationship is doomed? ;d

There is nothing wrong with being in long term relationships before 18 and it doesn't mean you are doomed. There is no reason to feel that your age relationship is not as good as others. However, generally hormones get in the way of many things that are the foundations of a long-lasting relationship, hence why they usually don't last very long.

However, that's not to say if you date someone before you are 18 it is already doomed - I know married couples who started dating in their mid-teens.

So, to answer your question, yes they probably will. However, you don't have to listen to those who say you are doomed at the moment ^^

Well, I've had certain fucks tell me it's going to be doomed for 2 years now and they have all been fuckin wrong this far.

But yes - as I've noticed - hormones tend to brake up a lot of people. One of my mates broke up with his ex because he simply desired 'more sex with different people' :d

Congratulations, it's quite a feat to make it that far in your teens (not saying this in a patronising way, I was a teen not so long ago).

Just do you own thing, other people should be worrying about their own relationships tbh.

it does in that if your not attracted to your partner then your just friends rather than a couple. however it shouldnt be the only thing keeping the relationship going i.e. "we always argue but the sex is great so we stay together".

I actually have a problem wherein i find it really difficult to have sex (never used to, its a relatively new thing about 2 years or so old, pschological not physical) so me and Mr Ez havent actually done the deed very much at all in the last couple of years but we're good, still have snogs and cuddles and gropes and i mean we got engaged in July so ^^

if i didnt fancy the pants off him and like his company and love him (and the same with him for me) then the relationship would have just gone kaput. so in answer to your question, yes it is important and it is important that folk realise that it is also not that important...there are other things that mean more such as friendship, i mean if you dont like the person your going out with you really are stuffed lol

That pretty much hit the nail, but "spread some rep etc."

Yes, it's very important in any healthy relationship. Just dont let the Mrs find out! :)

Probably, or just genetics. Originally we weren't meant to even live this f*cking far :D So our sexdrive, if it's at it's primal stage as it sometimes seems , just restarts the loop. Can't really say.

About bi-semi-nymph...i know :D

Im one of those (!)

But...but...we match perfectly yet you still want more!! :(

Well, I've had certain fucks tell me it's going to be doomed for 2 years now and they have all been fuckin wrong this far.

Stiiiiiiill waiting for you and her to realise what you want in life and then see how it goes, though after all the "f*ck yous" and "no we wonts", i'm betting this is the last place you'll come and talk about it :p

Has nothing to dow tih your age though, well, in that sense.

About "i've met old couples who've met young etc etc";

It worked like that in the past, now-a-days it's not the same. You hook up later, as ages are longer, as breeding isn't needed that much, as you can do career before marriage, etc etc etc.

oh god, I'm nearly there :(:(:(

indeed. nobody's relationship is the same. there is no magic grind that works for *everyone*
be yourself, love your partner, talk to each other. who knows, you may be dancing the funky chicken at your own platinum wedding anniversary :)
