Quote From: flitrfliesI think women who aren't comfortable with there own sexuality have a real hard time letting their hair down in the bedroom (or where ever you have sex!).  
 
Having 4 children, I have had many 'ups' and 'downs', if you will, when it comes to playful times the bed. I love to have sex in public places. However, I won't be the top person in the bedroom, my thighs are too big, and I'm afraid I'll squish him. Seriously.  
 
I have even brought another woman into our bed so the three of us could play out our fantasies! There were no conflicts because of our threesome.  
 
Love and sex, for me, and I am now finding out for my husband, has it's ups and downs. My husband and I use to has sex everyday. That was just a few years ago. Now I'm lucky to have him once a week, sometimes I think he just gives 'it up' for his own release. I think about sex constantly all day long. I'm not sure if it's my 'sexual' peek or if it's hormones. I had baby, she's 10 months. The first trimester of my pregnancy, I was a 'nympho'. I was even masturbating twice a day. I was totally out of control. My husband also has a new hobby. 
 
Although he has always had an interest in video games. He started playing an on-line game ... Final Fantasy X1. It's a role playing game. For those of you who are familiar. He plays it ALL the time. It has even caused problems in our relationship. And now to our sex life. I think he even thinks about play the game while we are having sex. That's probably the reason behind us only making love once a week. His thoughts are occupied by the game and not of me. I have had numerous conversations about the 'game', but he just doesn't get it. I have even told him I'm going to find a woman for myself! He doesn't see anything wrong with that!  
 
Funny how I can totally tell the nation about my sex life. I think it is absolutely important in a marriage. For both partners to give themselves to their mate, even if they have a headache. Every one loves sex. They just have issues sometimes that need to be dealt with. Don't ever hide behind the fact that there is something else bothering you therefore you don't want to pleasure your mate. Think of all the calories you'll burn! Sex is a great outlet to release stress also. Just do it!  
 
As with any other aspect of a marriage, each partner has to have communication, patience and be able to compromise, how else are you going to get what each of you desires. 
 
Happy Love Making 
I would be interested in watching Dr. Phil talk with you and your husband about these issues you've brought up. There are so many issues....an extra person in the bed, how will you teach your children about sex, the difference between sex and lovemaking. Would make a great show....
