If you can still answer that question in days instead of months, you’re way ahead of me, and I’m happily married. Sigh. ---

Well, 31 years for **Guanolad** and 20 minutes for **nikjohns** seem to be the extremes. After reading over this thread, I have come to two conclusions: 1. Some people really _do_ have less sex than I do, and 2. Not many of them are here. ☹ ---

Two weeks. But before this current relationship, it had been ::mumble, mumble:: years. I am in a much better mood now. ---

About 3 or 4 months was the last time we tried to make a baby (but we’re gonna try again tomorrow, I’m orville-ating) Before we started trying to reproduce again, it had been a couple of years. _sigh_ I remember the days before I was on medication, back when I used to LIKE sex… ---

I think it’s been about 2 weeks… Nothing sucks more in the universe than a wife with a sex drive completely opposite your own. _sigh_ Although of late, it hasn’t been her fault, insomuch as it is her body chemistry… But still. ---
