Does sex ever feel like too much work?

If you need more incentive because of the workload involved in sex, put a mirror or two up by your bed. That is all the motivation you will ever need. You get to see everything. Its fantastic.

If someone should think it’s creepy or too much of Glenn Quagmire, tell them you’re claustrophobic and it helps when you are trying to sleep.:cool:

No, I just meant the grammar threw me off. I get it now. I thought he was saying “It takes longer to recover from sex than it takes to recover from sex.”

Getting it can be a lot of work. Actually having it, not so much. Although I kind of like what Norm Peterson said once: “At my age, sex is just one more thing you have to take your pants off for.”

Honey, is that you?

Sometimes I want to masturbate while I’m having sex.

Nothing wrong with that. Does require a little bit of additional dexterity in some positions.

When we’re actually getting down to it, it rarely feels like too much work. And when it feels like work, it’s usually well worth the reward. That said, my husband is famous for not showering all weekend. This is only relevant because he likes to be clean before sex (thank goodness), which usually happens on the weekend since our schedules are more or less opposite during the week. And it takes him for bloody ever to shower, which sucks. So we’ll start fooling around, decide we want to hop in bed, then suddenly he runs off to shower, which takes him 45 flipping minutes. By the time he’s ready to go, I’m half asleep. I’ve offered to “help,” but he’s not a huge fan of shower sex, and honestly I’m not, either. I’m not nearly as bendy as I used to be. That’s why I love it when he showers in the morning.

Oh, and with respect to masturbation, keep doing it. Masturbation is like the comfort food of sex. It’s reliable, relaxing and usually damn satisfying.
