Is it normal that i'm not getting laid?

We have been together about 8 months and when we first started dating we had sex every night. Now I'm lucky if I have sex once or twice a month. Is this normal?

    Welcome to the world of relationships. Start off hot-and-heavy and when it gets a little stale the sheets get cold - though 8 months is a little soon.

    You need to take a look at yourself:

    1. Are you active in the relationship (i.e. are you listening to your partner, talking to them)?
    2. Are you still being attentive to your partner (sex is great at the beginning because we treat like kings and queens then fall into pattern)?
    3. Are you really trying (just saying "hey babe, wanna bang?" isn't going to earn you points. Help clean up, watch a show they like, and cuddle on the couch, and you might get lucky)?
    4. Realize that maybe your partner isn't just into sex (or you)

  • That really sucks for you. I don't think it's normal. You should talk to your partner about it, I surely would.

    What? Are you like, 5 years old with NO life experience?

    The further a relationship develops, the more comfortable a couple gets with each other. OF COURSE ITS NORMAL for the Sex encounters to decrease... dumbass.

    Its up to you and her to keep the spark... fire... going - keep the courtship as it was when you first starting dating.

    IF you think 8 months is a challenge, then you will be totally shocked when you reach 8 years (married or not)... a relationship - especially sex - takes work.

    COMMUNICATE!!!

    Stress and works or home can also lead to no sex. Try to take her out to a romatic dinner and then take a bubble bath. Try some foreply and sexy pj's

    Talk to your parter. It definitely happens, and he or she probably has reasons. And problems at school or work can lead to not having sex, as well as physical pain, it may not even be that he or she doesn't want to. Just communicate

    Once a week is normal. Once a month? No, I don't think that's normal. You should try to find a solution to the problem. Try to think about what could be causing the problem and try to fix it yourself first before talking to your girl, because she might get all insecure and emotional or whatever if you confront her directly.

    Its a hard time man.

    i had this problem once. After some months i talked to her. After some time talking, she told me she was like "ashamed" because i laughed about a, in my opinion, very silly thing.

    Sex is very different to everybody. There are too much variables that take part on it. Education, bad past experiences, shame of your body apearance...

    Talk to her. But be calm, find a neutral way to talk about it.

    This sounds a little strange. Talk to your partner.
