Gents. At what stage/age did your S/O stop demonstrating that she found your body sexually stimulating outside of an actual sexual encounter?

Asked by Reacher (108points) December 17th, 2009

As time goes by it seems that couples can start to take each other for granted. Over familiarity perhaps? So Gents. Does the question apply to you?

Hasn’t happened yet. Of course it’s only been 8 years, and I’m only 60.

@pdworkin – Congrats! You got past the 7 year itch!

Sure. I think she stopped once the second kid was born, so around 27½? I guess. I think it is more along the lines of not finding my body stimulating, but rather what I do to her stimulating.

@MrBr00ks Me too. I know a lot of guys that say the same as soon as the kids arrive. And without putting the blame on women and their hormones, I wonder if this is why so many guys go off the rail.

I’m not sure I’m understanding this question. Why would a woman just stop finding her s/o sexually stimulating? Isn’t that the same as attracted sexual? Also, I think it’s no excuse for a guy to “go off the rail”.

@casheroo Its like this. In the early years my wife would see me come out of the shower and say some lustful remark and grab me in some way. Or give me a cuddle. I don’t know at what stage things changed but now I get out of the shower in the nude and she says ” I hope you’re going to wipe up after you!” Where did the romance go? And I’ve got a fit body as well. And its going to waste! LOL!

@Reacher Ah, now I understand…I think because I’m a woman, it’s hard viewing it from the guys point of view lol.
If children are involved, I definitely understand. You get tired. You can’t be sexual all the time. As long as there’s still affection and love, I don’t see why it’d be a big issue.

@casheroo I feel neglected. Boo! Hoo!

Hasn’t happened after over five years. In our relationship, it’s not just the packaging that makes us sexually attracted to each other. It’s what’s between the ears that makes us attracted to each other. The packaging reminds me who she is and how delightfully sexy she is because of who she is and how she responds to who I am. That’s not to say that I don’t find her the sexiest grandmother I’ve ever known. I know that will never change!
