    Dealing with mismatched sex drives can be horrifying, frustrating and a host of other undesired emotions for both partners. How do you find compromise when one partner is in the mood every day, any time ready to go, and the other partner could check in once or twice a week and be perfectly satisfied? In this episode, Tom & Lisa break down advice, solutions, and examples from their own relationship for how to deal with mismatched libidos. They discuss everything from frequency, porn, and orgasms all the way to being absolutely transparent about just wanting to be desired.

    What really sucks is being the female with the higher sex drive. Because of societal norms, men almost feel as though rejection is to be expected. Look at every sitcom, drama, movie, etc and it's the man that wants it but the woman that has a "headache". I'm a female with a higher sex drive than any man I've ever been with. I feel guilty and over-sexed all the time and it hurts me so deeply when my partner doesn't want me.... for real. It hurts so bad

      I hope that this will help you; 1) For one, for most of my younger years, as a young man with raging hormones, I wanted a woman like you, with high sex drive and I have always had the problem like the one discussed in the clip. Now, I still want it 24x7 but could not do it as much as that and if I had a lady partner that wanted it all the time, i would eventually run out of steam 2) while a woman who likes sex can literally have sez 100 times a day or every waking hours and even in her sleep, especially after 30-40 a man's abilities start becoming more and more limited and if at some point you want it and your man does not, it may well be that it's NOT that "he doesn't want you" but that he doesn't want sex or, even worse that he feels his sex drive at that point is so low that he fears he might fail gloriously and then embarrass both himself and you. It’s just that he might not feel like discussing it with you the way he probably should. Or if he were considerate enough he could probably think of taking care of you in "associated /related ways" but perhaps this is something you could discusstogether. Some people including many men think that the only way to have sex is full penetrative sex and there are other ways.
      Rejection is always painful regardless which way it goes I am sure that is sucks and it just might be easier to get over it when you understand that YOU are NOT being rejected, as such. It’s more like it rains when you want to go to the beach
      I hope this helps

    I'm eager to hear more from women who wants sex and crave intimacy MORE than their male partner!
    It's hardly ever brought to the forefront and it's a real thing! High sex drive is not a male thing. When the roles are reversed when it comes to sex, and a woman wants it more, it can potentially breakdown the relationship at a faster pace to me.
    Hoping for feedback on this one!

      I think so, maybe because of what they were saying on the warm up period for women being emotional building; if there's a higher sex drive, and the man's is lower, he could be lacking in those building areas as well. Or the rejection and frustration is felt deeper since women seem to fire on all cylinders at the same time, and men usually compartmentalize more easily.

    I am an avid listener and I love what you both put out into the world, thank you. However, pornography raises red flags for me. To me, I think it is analogous to illicit drugs. Some forms of pornography are more harmful than others. Almost all pornography is potentially addictive and can impact peoples’ lives in a negative way. There is also the question of how the material was sourced and what individuals (mainly women) were mistreated and disenfranchised along the way. Do I think all illicit drug use is bad?? No. Nor is all pornography use bad, but I don’t think it should be treated lackadaisically either. Just my two cents. Thanks!!!

  • @jasoncoward7947
    @jasoncoward7947 Год назад +9

    Your openness is appreciated. A couple points of interests. I don't believe it's always about your partner simply saying yes, it's about them having a desire to begin with. Your example of one wanting it 4 times a week and the other only wanting it 2 times a week; so you ask them 4 times so they feel desired however they are only agreeable 2 times which is what they wanted anyhow. This is not a balance. It is exactly one-sided. One-sided in the sexual act and one-sided in one feeling desired. Also, if one is going to perform the solo act, the other could "help out" without full intercourse. I do not want to be a sexual obligation. The key is good communication and respect for each other. Thanks again.

For men it’s more mechanical like a math problem, for women quality will likely win every time. So if a male partner wants sex everyday- a way to get closer to what he wants is to fulfill the needs of connection for the woman and she will likely
    Be open to giving it to him as often as he wants. That hasn’t been touched on!

    I am the one with the higher drive in our relationship. It took me a few months to feel comfortable asking and being turned down. I was afraid that he would find me too needy or think poorly of me for having a higher drive. We talked about it and he's happy to be asked, and like you said I never make him feel guilty for saying no (I often check in to make sure that he knows that his no is always valid and accepted) and he doesn't make me feel bad for asking. Early on feeling unwanted was a struggle for me, but he's is quite dedicated to making me satisfied when he is in the mood, so that helped. All the way around we focus on communication and consent especially because he was uncomfortable saying no at first because it caused problems in his previous relationships.

      Just fine. Nearly a year in we're still going strong. We've both learned to communicate our needs and I specifically have learned that just because he says no for now, it doesn't mean something bad. I've calmed down my anxious attachment issues (being told no in a healthy way actually helped that), and he always makes sure that I know it's not because there's anything wrong with me. No signs of us developing deeper issues from this. If anything, I'm more secure and so is he because we have to talk about how we feel more honestly. Also, I've learned that my want for sex isn't always about actual sex. A decent portion of the time it's desire for care and intimacy that can be met in other ways.

The issue is that he has 100% sex drive like Tom 😂 and I'm finding it hard to match it up. When we watch sexy or romantic movies, when we touch each other in a loving or sexy way during the day, this gets me going and I can have the same drive... but after that I need a break! Lol He doesn't! 🤪Especially because I need the warming up. I am an entrepreneur so the switch needs to be made and because we now have teens who go to bed after us! 😂 But understanding where we are at, respecting each other's needs, wanting to please the other, talking about it all the time and making our sex life one of the most important part of our relationship is key. No instant tricks here...

    I'm 40 and my husband is 38 we have been married for 16yrs and have 4 boys.. for years I've noticed his sex drive wasn't as high as mine, mostly because in the beginning he was using porn to self pleasure leaving me to be on the waiting list..
    After 10 yrs doing this he has now worked himself off of porn and it has definitely decreased our sex. Now what was once a week has now become 2 times a month.
    Along with that there is no intimacy, no affection during.
    I don't know if he over thinks the sex part or what. But it has put alot of emotional space in between us. We sleep together in our rooms as roommates and go out as best friends. I'm willing to do anything to save us, he has been to me a Blessing in my life and my kids life.

    porn to me is a problem if a woman is asking for sex, being denied and then he turns to it. In your scenario it makes sense if the woman says no thanks but he came to her first - that is more respectful. It becomes messed up when the guy wants to get off to porn and makes it a choice to be the priority over the partner like the guy in the video says....and it sadly is all too common. And the wife is so right...women want to know we're wanted and porn can be a competition...

    My husband secretly watching porn destroyed our sex life. He only wanted sex about 3-4 times a year which I thought was due to his age, low testosterone, and diabetes. We had no emotional connection, as well, although he has always been super nice to me. Now that we’re having sex again, he wants it rough, not at all romantic. I can only go so far and have been injured 3 times. I hate porn. If porn/the internet didn’t exist, would it then be ok for a man to cheat with real women because he has a higher sex drive? I believe you choose to focus desire upon your spouse period, and you wait if you have to. You don’t go eat cake every time you crave it, do you? It wouldn’t be healthy. Same should go for sex in marriage. It’s not all about the man.

    • @icysnow57cold64

      I have a question. Why do people still have sex? Sex is very gross, nasty, messy, and disgusting! I don't see how sex is a good thing. Why don't humans just remove sex from this world? Women can still get pregnant without sex (there's a lot of ways women can get pregnant without sex including artificial insemination). Sex is unnecessary.
      I think sexual intercourse is immoral since it has caused so many problems for the human race. People have gotten diseases from sex, and sex has caused so many unwanted pregnancies. The human race would be far better off without sex, and the human race could start reproducing by using artificial insemination. Sexual intercourse is not physically and mentally healthy for people and can seriously negatively affect their physical and mental health.

    I understand that when she says no that she is just not there at that time and I respect that, the issue I have is that no, maybe later and not today have become go to answers. I really feel that everytime I ask for it I have become a burden to my wife even tho I have expressed that every 3 to 4 days a release with her is not only wanted but needed. It amazes me that when I hit that 3 to 4 day mark and she says no the thoughts that go through my mind are insane and I ask myself why am I thinking this way. Masturbation for me does not do it either yea its fun and it get me though short periods of time but is not a replacement for the connection needed.

    • @RaysLongoria
      @RaysLongoria Год назад +3

      I was searching these comments hoping to find someone with a similar story as mine and while I'm not happy you're going through what you described, I'm super glad I'm not alone. I crave the connection, the bond that sex creates almost more than the actually physical pleasure. I'm like you that after 3 or 4 days without that connection, my mind starts to go haywire and a lot of resentment builds up that seems to come out of nowhere. In my experience with my wife, the word "need" is a HUGE turn off to her because she feels super pressured. We're reading this book called "Come As You Are" and she has gotten a lot of good out of it. I'm trying to suffer through it but it's really written for the majority of women who don't want sex very often and so it's hard for me to read. I never dreamed sexual dysfunction was something I'd ever have to deal with and now that it's here, it's actually pretty scary. It's pushing me in ways I find extremely uncomfortable and I think it's going to take a lot of time and patience for me to even want to work through this. I just want the problem to go away, as in my wife just magically wanting more sex, but I don't think that's ever going to happen. I also find myself wanting to take medication to decrease my libido so I will stop causing our relationship so many problems, but thoughts like those just seem to make things worse. Anyway, I don't mean to overshare but maybe you can relate to something I've been going through too. Good luck, you're not alone!

    What a fantastic insights. Love how you break it down to pieces, the whole process, and not just say "yeah you should communicate better". One thing though. There is no such thing as THE man and THE woman.
    I tend to have a much higher sex drive than my partners, and I have quite a few friends who are the same.
    Also, I want sex to feel loved... not the other way around. And also in that I am not the only one. I also know men who have the opposite and want to feel loved before they can have sex, although I admit that more rare. I know it's difficult to put it in a video like this, but I think it would really add to the conversation. Because I DO think that the same mechanisms are working in a relationship where the woman has a higher sex drive! Agian, this was wonderful, thank you.

    Good video but your conclusion/solution is kind of sad. The higher drive person just has to watch porn and masturbate to fulfill the unmet needs? It's nice that the lower drive person allows it without jealousy but I think there's a beter solution. How about the lower drive person learns how to satisfy the unmet need of her partner without actually having sex if she doesnt want sex. There are MANY ways to bring your partner sexual satisfaction without even taking your clothes off and in 10min or less. If you truly love them wouldnt this be your preference over "letting" them watch other (often more beautiful) women have (often much hotter) sex?

I can say it still isn't much better twice in 12 months, if I am lucky. I can see how it has come about having a second wife, using prostitution and having an affair has come about, although I have not tried any yet. Porn has been a comfort, though it has made things even more far apart with regards to trying new things

    I have a high sex drive and I think making love is beautiful and amazing I love connecting with my boyfriend it's very passionate and it's so phenomenal I think sex/making love is very important it feels so amazing to be wanted by someone you love I know I'm beautiful I know my worth I just want to be desired my question is what do you do if your boyfriend doesn't want to and you do no I don't want our relationship to be based on sex/making love yet I do think its healthy part of a relationship and it feels so good to be wanted I never thought he would make me feel like he didn't want me it was just so out of the blue we have been together 9 months and we are long distance so maybe I want it more because of that now I'm not really sure what to do about this I'm so in love with him but it kind of feels like he is push me away or he can't handle alot of intimacy I'm 37 and my boyfriend also 40 how did I handle this situation without blaming or shaming him I want to be wanted it feels amazing to be desired I want him to want to make love to me not fight with me about it or make me feel wrong for wanting it I would appreciate any advice thank you so much ❤

    I'm a woman that always has the higher sex drive in relationships. I wish I could find somebody that matches me

    I know this is an old video but hoping to still get a response…. It’s it wrong to have your partner help with sexual pleasure when they don’t want actual sex? For example I’m a woman in my early 30s and my sex drive is high and my bf also early 30s has a low sex drive, when he says he’s not in the mood but I am I have him use a sex toy on me, is that wrong to ask of him?

    I’m a female and I want sex and he has absolutely no sex drive what so ever. We haven’t had sex in over 2 years despite my trying to initiate it. I’m absolutely miserable and can’t get him to do anything about it. He doesn’t take it seriously and it’s killing me.

      If I was the woman, the first thing I would check is my weight. I would compare it to the one I had when he liked me. I see nobody talking about this, yet so many Americans are overweight. I see unattractive women complementing each other on Facebook, which gives them a false sense of attractivness. The best and easiest way to get rid of fat is keto diet, not the gym.

      I went nine years without being touched at all in an intimate manner with him. Then one day he told me that he wouldn’t live in a relationship without sex , not I love you I want you ect. Then I found out he’d been on sex websites and dating websites also escort websites and had met with them now he expects me to forgive him and never mention anything about it again even though he still doesn’t want to talk about sex or show desire for me I know he loves me and will do anything for me around the house and buy me anything I want and need only just doesn’t talk to me and spends his evenings on his phone or tablet or his other phone or laptop instead of laying with me and talking or making love ……..
