These 19 Women Deal with Higher Sex Drives than Their SO’s

5.

My libido is higher than my boyfriend’s. I am still sort of getting used to it even though we’ve been together for quite some time now. What has really helped me is understanding and accepting that it has nothing to do with me. Another thing that has made it easier for me, though it isn’t easy, is letting go of expectations. That way I get really happy when he initiates it and if he doesn’t, I’m still fine with it.

With my ex-boyfriend, there was a HUGE libido difference. He was content with 1-2x a week, whereas I’m a 1-2x a day kinda of girl. I got rejected constantly and it really did a number on my self esteem. Needless to say, it sucked.

We have higher sex drives than one another at different times of the day. He wants sex first thing in the morning, and I absolutely hate it. I want sex throughout the day and he likes to do “couple stuff” like cuddling on the couch instead. I perv on him a lot throughout the day, which ends up with sex right before bed. We both have high libidos, but the different time preferences cause trouble because he feels rejected in the morning, and I feel rejected throughout the day. 9.99/10 we have sex in the morning because, just because.

I could go 5+ times per day, he wants it every day or two. I just get myself off when he doesn’t want to.
