Exactly 3 months—New Year’s Eve. In the three months before that, it’s been about 3 times.

We have a 6-month-old. I believe this is natural child spacing at it’s finest.

Oh, but I DO remember the 7-times-in-a-weekend days. \<sigh\>

Its just not fair! I havent had sex since December and unless someone really special comes along (pretty darn quick I might add!) it’s probably gonna be another few months, probably just before my 18th. ☹

about seven years, eight months if I remember correctly. and 3 years since a girl kissed me passionately. I think the second one hurts more than the first.

A little over 6 months, though I didn’t get to ‘finish’ so I’m not sure if it counts.

No, it’s just that I didn’t bother to announce it. Teenage apathy.

Yeah, sometimes it does.

I didn’t think wanting a sane, employed, good-hearted guy (age 25-35) was too much to ask for but apparently it is.

This is true. 😉

South Carolina has great golf courses, wonderful weather & cute, under-sexed women - what more can you ask for? 😃

The last time I had sex was May 33rd, but I’m not sure if it counted since that was during a non-leap year.
