There’s often a slight difference between the amount of sex we want and the amount of sex we get. It can be quite a shock to see this difference, especially considering how much people talk about sex. This leads us to ask ourselves, “Is sex enough?”
Like many things in life, the answer starts with “it depends” and then takes into account various factors. So… is sex enough? How do you know? If not, how can I get more information?
How much adult sex is enough?
The amount of adult sex that is normal for you and your relationship depends on the strength of your libido as an adult and how much time you and your partner spend together. Many couples in long-distance relationships have adult sex more frequently because they feel they have to make up for the time they lost when they met, while couples in committed relationships lose the habit of adult sex.
So, how much adult sex is enough? It was recently reported that the amount of adult sex per week is related to age. According to a Kinsey study, adult sex between the ages of 30 and 39 is 1.6 times a week, or 86 times per year, while adult sex between the ages of 40 and 49 is only 69 times per year. This equates to about 1.3 sessions per week. These numbers don’t seem as good as many expected, and if you’re already below these numbers, you might feel pretty terrible.
Want to enjoy adult sex?
There are many different reasons why you might not be getting enough adult sex. First, life often gets in the way. Even if you thought you picked the perfect moment to have a romantic evening of fun, you might find that your plans have changed. Stress could also be bothering you. When you are stressed, your libido decreases. You don’t have as much desire as usual, and when you go to bed at night, you want to sleep instead of having sex with your partner and climaxing.
As we age, things change. You may notice that your libido is decreasing even when there is no stress in your life. This can be caused by a variety of things, from medications to health issues, and sometimes, it can feel impossible to win.
How can I achieve more?
Are you tired of not having enough sex as an adult? There are many ways to change this. First, take a look at your own sexual desire as an adult. Have you noticed a change? Do you no longer have the passion for adult sex like you used to? There are some things you can do at home to change this. For example, you can work on reducing stress. An erotic massage can make a big difference, as can going to the gym and exercising more. But sometimes, you might need to take the plunge and consult a doctor. You may not want to do this, but it will make a difference and help you find a solution.
Just don’t have the time? Create an adult sex schedule. Make time for adult sex. Set a date and time with your partner to have adult sex, and don’t break that promise. The time leading up to it will excite you and make you even more excited so that you can enjoy adult sex again.
