    To be honest, it went down after giving birth to my son….well, not in quality but definately in quantity!

    Figured out how that whole pregancy thing happened, decided it wasn’t as pleasant as I thought, learned how to prevent it from happening again! just kidding!!!

    But seriously, after that first birth, well, not sure why it happened but the frequency definately dropped off. Wonder if that’s normal.

    I’m a little late gettingin on that on, but for what it’s worth, I got married when I was 24 after dating my wife for a year, exactly a year. 8 monthes of that time were planning the wedding :-? I think it was a bit early and we should have dated longer, but I also think that is all subjective.

    Next year will be our 10th aniversary I had planned to take a long vacation, unfortunately I will have to settle for a video confrence.

    Our marrage has had ups and downs, some times it seems like a lot more downs, but it’s worth it I think.

    As for the sex, it defineately gets better, the frequency seems to go in cycles. Some times we’re bunneys and sometimes we’re roommates.

    Well said…lol


  • I definitely think it depends on your age. My wife told me I had a year to figure out if I wanted to marry her or not when we started dating. I figured it out in less time than that…we got engaged 7 months after we started dating and got married 7 months after that.

    Having said that, we are both in our 30’s. I really think the older you are, the more you know yourself and the less time it takes to know whether you are making the right decision.

    My wife thinks noone under 25 should get married. She’s seen too many friends and relatives get married young, then separate or divorce within 2 years. She thinks they barely know who they are at that age, how can they make a lifetime committment.

    I think you might have a point there. As you get older you start to see your life pass before you, and if you want something, you see that you have less and less time to get it.

    No, you missed my point. My point is that when you are older you know who you are better than you did when you were younger. At 18, I was still growing up and I am not now the person I was then. It would certainly have been more difficult had I been married then as I was changing and still growing up at that time.

    As far as less and less time to get what I want, well, I still think I have plenty of time to get everything I want (that I haven’t gotten yet :wink: ).

    I missed nothing, NOTHING! hehe. No really, I was really more referring to older people marrying in shorter dating periods then younger people and why i thought that was.

    Besides, who you THINK you are totally and completely changes after marriage, again after childbirth and I’m sure again after your children leave for college, get married themselves and have babies.

    I WAS different when I was 18… But I find that if you grow TOGETHER… then you always have your best friend to lean on as you run into lifes challenges and changes… birth, money, houses, cars, stress, children in school, college…etc… and then retirement.
