Is it true that after marriage the desire for sex slowly fades away?

I always hear that for like the first 2 weeks the couples are really active but then as the marriage progresses, the zeal for sex slowly goes down and couples start having sex like once a week or something. Is this true?

  • This is one big lie propagate by the World Wide Web.

    The small percentage of "dead bedroom" (w3 slang) users make it sound like marriage is sex life wrecker.

    No.

    Yes, after the couple returns from their honeymoon, their sex frequently do drop because they need to go back to work.

    But when weekend comes, they fuck, sometimes the entire day.

    And the arrival of kids don't seem to stop sex life. Otherwise my local government run polyclinic won't give out free condoms and IUDs to married couples.

    Hence I thank your question. I can share a little voice against this very weird notion that seems to spread in the w3 and in G@G.

    PS: this does not include couples who are sick and hence lost their libido due to medication; or separated due to work.

  • Not always, but often it is the case. Its not necessarily the marriage part that does it but the moving in together, which is one reason i also advocate for living together before marriage. Once your settled in the riggers of daily life and you've fucked in every room of the house your daily routines take over and things aren't as spontaneous as they used to be. You also have to work at a relationship/marriage, that includes the sex life, otherwise married or not things will go down hill.

  • That isn't always true. For my marriage the amount of sex has increased since when we first got married. Most likely cause the communication between us got better and now know what we both want. I guess this all depends on the couple since we had sex before marriage and already had a child it could be very different for people that waited till marriage for those things.

  • I hope not! Getting married next year and not ready for that!

  • I got married 15 months ago and we still have tons of sex. I'm sure once kids enter our lives we may have to adjust.

  • Not if the marriage is good. If it fades away, it's because the one or both partners has become resentful. I've been with my wife 13 years and she's always ready.

    • There are couples in their 60s enjoying a vigorous sex life.

  • Not necessarily. It's just no longer an obsession.

  • Yes, it's true, and it's not bad. It means the couple is sharing other things together, not just lust.

  • It really stared to wane once we had kids.

  • yep once the kid are running all over the place it dies away until latter

    • That's a lie. Kids only kill a couples sex life if they are using that as a excuse

  • If you mean does it become more manageable yes, probably. 15 minutes before bedtime aids restful sleep.

  • Yes, you are right

  • Yes. I would agree with that

  • Women generally kill sex in a marriage because they no longer need it to get you.
    They still use it as a tool to control you, reward you, and punish you when needed.

  • Not the case at all in my relationship.

    I still fuck her brains out like the whore she was when we met.

  • That is not always the case.

    • Yes, it is. women want more sex before marriage
