Way more sex while married than single. Single I am always worried about the pregnancy and disease things. Not nearly as easy to plan romance away from home. Lot of times single people have roomates, or kids, or pets that mess up your privacy. Nobody's bed is as clean/comfortable as your own.

Married you can just have fun. A husband is around when you are rested and in the mood. Watching a mate getting all cleaned up for you is sexy. You get to know your partner granted but you also know what works so I think it just gets better.

Then I have always been the type to have "date nights" with my partner and little "mini Honeyingmoons". I am sure being married to a service member you know they might not come home so the time you have is precious.



If you are married it does not mean you cannot potentially get a STD. It also does not prevent your partner from being involved in a pregnancy with someone outside the marriage.

my ol' pappy told me

"When you get married get a pickle jar and every time you have sex put a quarter in it

after two years every time you have sex take a quarter out of it

You'll never empty it"

I have very little sex while I'm single....

But I'd hate to think that if I married again I'd stop having sex with my partner. If that were really true, I'd definitely never remarry!

I have heard that some married people rarely have sex..

My marriage was so short, doesn't apply to me.

Do single people have more sex than married couples?


I don't know others experience, but during my marriage - I had way more sex than I do now, being "single"...

I think sex when single is more crazy and therefore it sticks with you more but all in all I have more when I'm with someone than just "single"..

When I did the live together thing which I guess is close to marriage, my real marriage was not a good gauge of this so I won't use it, I definitely had more sex than when I am single. And I think it meant more to me too.

The longest live in that I had though was 7 years and that one actually started out bad in the bedroom and never improved. I tried everything, making sure the bed is fresh and smells good all the time (men are effected by sense of smell), using scented candles, lots of lingerie, high heels, introduced movies and toys, etc... He was older than me by quite a few years and I really think he had lost interest. It was funny because when we first started dating he was quite frisky..lol but after he felt like he got me, it was over. Oh well ce la vie

I think all relationships when they are new are very sexual. As time goes by, well? I don't want to say it becomes unimportant but it does sometimes lose its priority to other priorities. But, in my opinion, it should NEVER go to the bottom of the list. If it does, the problem is not lack of sex but something else is wrong in the relationship, lack of sex is just a symptom. But, I do know some couples where they both MUTUALLY agree that sex is no longer high in their list of priorities. And if it's cool with them, well, who are we to judge? But if one or both people are unhappy with it, well, that needs to be addressed.

When I was married, we had sex a lot, until other problems caused the sex to go away. When I realized I didn't care anymore, I knew the marriage was over.


Well said. Sex was good till my long-term relationship didn't feel the need to work, clean house, etc. After my back injury, I didn't care. To much mental stress and eventually resentment to become intimate with.

That said, the guy I've been seeing about a month hasn't pushed the issue, beyond hugs and kisses. It's nice to date and become friends before sex.
