Weā€™re a long-distance relationship, but when we get together, usually we both perform services. Iā€™d say itā€™s about equal, though we have such a short time together itā€™s not a lot compared to other people. Thank goodness we both enjoy receiving/giving. Though I do go by that adage that itā€™s ā€œmore blessed to give than receive.ā€ šŸ˜‰ ---

Letā€™s see, it will be 7 years this weekend since either happened. But during that relationship, it was pretty much an even trade, 4 or 5 nights a week. ---

Give 5-6 times a week. Get 3-4 times a month. Iā€™m more eager and willing to do it. I ask him daily if he wants a BJ. Iā€™m more shy when it comes to asking him to do it. ---

Get/give just about every time, usually a couple times a week, even more just before Hoover week. ---

I canā€™t believe Iā€™m answering this. I give about 5 - 10 times a month, (though I donā€™t count) and I get umā€¦letā€™s see (does some averaging) about one time a year. Iā€™m not bitter. No, really. It doesnā€™t do all that much for me. If hubby shows up, donā€™t tell him I posted in here, heā€™d murderize me! (Iā€™m joshing). šŸ˜‰ ---

Give about 80% of the time we get busy, get about the same. When we are together, that is a lot. ---

Frequency of meeting depends on flight schedules more than anything. When weā€™re together, 100% of the time. ---

Give - more than half of the times we have sex. Get - 5-10% of the time. IĀ“m a married male, if that adds any wortwile info to the numbers. ---

Giving and receiving is always included - 100% of the time. SO and I have sex 5 or 6 times a week. ---

Well, today makes six months and one day since the ex bwoke my wittle heawt :(, so lately, itā€™s been nothing. But I love love LOVE to give, so when I was dating, it was once in the morning, once in the eveing, and anytime in between, so an average of 4-10 times a week (we usually spent four days together). Receiving was much the same, but not nearly as important. ---

My numbers are about like these. Hmmmā€¦never realized I was getting the seriously raw end of the deal! My WAG-the penis protrudes, and is therefore easier to get to, and much more obvious about :ahem: begging for attention than the hoo-ha? ---

OK, let me just say, so that all you people out there know it: Not all women like being on the receiving end of oral sex. I am one of those women. Itā€™s nice, itā€™s pleasant enough, but frankly, itā€™s never going to ā€˜do the trick.ā€™ Most men think, ā€œOh, sheā€™s just never had it done by me! Iā€™m the best!ā€ Poor pets. I know they try and try, but itā€™s just NOT going to happen. I wonder if itā€™s something about the way some women are designed, the placement/sensitivity of their clitorises or something. I donā€™t know. I donā€™t know too many women out there who can have an orgasm from ORAL alone, and even fewer who can have one from intercourse alone. So, I donā€™t feel bitter at all about getting far more than I give. I ā€˜getā€™ in other ways, so everyone is happy. ---

Iā€™m with Anahita. Receiving is nice once in a while, but it just doesnā€™t get me off (sorry to be so blunt šŸ™‚ ) the way other activities do. But I do love giving and thatā€™s usually a prelude to sex everytimeā€“which is about twice a day. ---

I am seriously disturbed by myā€¦uhā€¦low number of occasions to give or receiveā€¦uhā€¦compared to some folks here. I thought I was weird for wanting it more. Huh. I guess I _am_ tired a lot.
