Help – My Overactive Sex Drive is Killing My Marriage!
Are you a man with an overactive sex drive?
With all of the Viagra and Cialis commmercials, you might think that men just can’t get it up any more, but that’s not always the case.
There are many married men, and men in relationships, who just can’t get enough. This can be a real issue if your partner is not sexually matched with you.
So what do you do if you find yourself in this situation? Here are some great ideas to help you, and your partner, enjoy sex fully.
The Question
I know there are a lot of people who wish they had this problem… I wonder if there is any way my body is over producing sex hormones. I am 52 years old, not 19, and my sex drive is beyond explaining.

The Answer

Regardless of which way you go with this, the most important thing is to be vary open and honest with your wife about how you feel, what you’re experiencing, what your needs are, and your feelings toward her.
Don’t be judgmental or make her feel inadequate in any way. That can only go bad.
She has to know that you still love her just as much, but you have some very strong sexual needs that aren’t being met.
Explaining to her how you truly feel and what your situation is should hopefully gain some understanding and empathy from her. This of course depends on how open and up-front your relationship is. We share everything, and discuss all of our issues and concerns together. Most couples don’t, and that’s reflected in the 50%+ divorce rate. Open and honest communication is crucial to a happy relationship.
There are several ways that you can go with this…
