Married Ladies I Need Your Advice Please by Forestgreen: 11:18am On Nov 01, 2017
I am a married man with a job in the financial sector. My wife also works too. I decided to put this here because I want married ladies/mum to comment on this and advise me if I'm going overboard.
we have been married for over three years now and have a little son whom I adore do much. My wife has never really loved the act of love making. she is never really an initiator in matters like this. I have the one to always initiate the move and this is quite exasperating. was we manage to get down to the act, she responds warmly.
Before we got married, I noticed she doesn't really like sex. I'm a guy that enjoys stuffs like that- romance, intimacy and the whole baggages. initially I thought it was just because we were still courting and she didn't want to let go completely so I thought she would finally relax when we get married, but I was wrong.
fast forward to present time. our baby is almost eight months old and we have not done it. she keep giving one excuse about us having to wait for her to heal properly ( she delivered through C. section). sometimes,it's just that she is not in the mood. during the pregnancy, we did it just once. not because she wanted it but because some old woman somewhere adviced her that it will ease labor and delivery.
Now I'm looking down into the future wondering if this is how bleak its gonna be for me sex-wise. she is probably waiting for our baby's one year birthday for me to come and do my conjugal right and impregnate her again then we go back to the status quo. I have talked to her before about this and she just mentioned casually that I am free to go out and satisfy myself. I'm a man that love intimacy and sex. Sometimes, I missed my past affairs. The cuddling, intimacy and the real deal. My wife doesn't care about all these. it's just like I'm living with a room mate and the matter is getting worse.
Ladies in the house, sorry for this long epistle, but I'm I demanding for sex too soon(8 month after she put to bed)? what do you advice I do.

Oga, I'm not a married woman nor a mother but I think my input shouldn't be strictly based on these your criteria.

Actually, your wife has a low sex-drive and there are tones of things you could both engage in to arouse her interest in sex 'cause whether she likes it or not; sex is an integral part of any union if it must survive. That being said, you're overreacting since she had a C-section. You should give her time to heal very well 'cause sex when the wound hasn't heal properly could cause an eruption. Ask her doctor when they think it's ok for her to have sex. Talk to her about what you don't like about her sex life I guess she will adjust with time.
Re: Married Ladies I Need Your Advice Please by Nobody: 11:31am On Nov 01, 2017
To your wife: From this epistle, it's obvious your man really loves you. And you tell him that "he is free to go out and satisfy himself". Can you beat that! Woman go and please your husband o before all these young hawks out there grab him.
Wats with ladies sef?

If u are not in the mood, or because of CS, there are a million ways of pleasing your man till you are in the mood and he will not complain.
Don't make him remember the past.

Nope, you are not wrong.My problem is that you saw the signs during courtship but didnt do anything abt it.My dear,what you didnt change before marriage may never be changed after marriage.I hate partners denying each other their conjugal rights...
since you have spoken with her and shes not doing anything,call her parents or your marriage counsellor or her bestie(married oneooo).

there was a reason why I specified those criteria. firstly, I want mum's with real experience to share at what time they got back into active sex after child birth.
I have done my research online (mom center) and most female respondents said six weeks as suggested by their care giver. I want to know what naija mum's here will say.
matter of fact, I'm not even disturbing here anymore.
tnx for your response

For your info
A c/s takes about six weeks to heal completely. 2 months if there are other issues.

She is well past using the c/s as an excuse not to have sex.

7 months is the earliest time given to try out for another kid after having c/s. Not sex.

The truth is, she was not too into sex before you married her, how much more now that she's had a baby and running around trying to take care of it, the sleepless nights, etc. Even ladies with roaring libidos before marriage normally have a decline in sex drive afterwards talkless of one who wasn't showing much interest before. Caring for the baby itself can be quite stressful and it takes a woman who really enjoys sex to want to get back into bed with you after settling the kid.

However you're a man not a robot and you have needs as well.

I advise you to get someone else to talk to her. That could help a lot. Also be patient, don't give up. Continue the romantic stuff. I doubt she'll ever be able to meet up to your level of sexual desire but there's room for improvement sexually on her part.

Hahahaha

Guy calm down... You are not alone... Trust me.. So many good girls don't really like seeex like that.... It gets worse once they give birth.... They tend to lose interest in seeex and their husband and dedicate all their time and energy to their kids....... So relax.


We discussed this issue in my office one time like that and discovered that so many men are going thru this same issue of seexual apathy from their wives.

Try and enjoy urself outside... Pls be so so careful not to ever get caught... Always respect and honor your woman by following these rules:

1)NEVER ever bring a woman home

2)Never ever cheat on ur wife with a woman that stays close to ur place.. E.g have chics that stay on the mainland if you live on the island

3)Never deny your wife of love, affection, money and attention because of a side chic

4)Get a young girl that is not ready to get married or one in a serious relationship.... Those ones are in it with you just for fun and will never get jealous or hook with pregnancy.

5)And lastly... Always wear a condom... Don't go and give ur wife disease abeg.

Enjoy ur life bro... It's meant to be lived once... Heaven or hell is not guaranteed.. So enjoy this one that you currently have.

She is free to have sex after 6 - 8 weeks but 7 months after C-section to try another pregnancy.
Re: Married Ladies I Need Your Advice Please by Nobody: 1:36pm On Nov 01, 2017
Dear OP,

When it comes to sex issues (in marriage), let's always have it in mind that
1.Not all men have raging libidos.
2.Not all women have non-existent libidos.
3.There are people (male/female) who are in-between.
4.There are people whose own libido isn't on the chart at all.
5. All these classes of people will be matched with lucky compatible spouses or unlucky incompatible spouses (case study of you and your darling wife)
.

For people like you had sex during courtship, you're encouraged to marry someone who has same sexual urge as you. Your wife never liked sex, she most likely won't start now, coupled with the expected (natural) decline. To me, getting someone professional to talk to her is nice if it's a case of: -Past traumatic sexual experience.
-A medical condition.
-Is it about you? Your look (Women are visual beings too) or how you make love to her?
-She's suffering from post partum depression.
I know few friends who couldn't get over their CS experience and dreaded sex for a long time. They all never told their husbands 'bout it _they left the innocent man wondering.

DON'T LET IN A THIRD PARTY RELATED TO EITHER OF YOU. They will give her those talks that'll make her see it more as CHORE and start spreading her legs for you, you won't enjoy the sex. See a PROFESSIONAL THERAPIST. The cause of her situation would be ascertained, let's hope it can be remedied.

After that, what you do about it is up to you.
Whatever you do while fixing yourself, please note she didn't really mislead you. I hope you'll be okay with her doing same if tables turn wink.

I'm not married and don't have kids. But my 2 cents anyway.....

Since you noticed this during your courtship, there're underlying issues that need to be resolved and/or communicated. I hope you don't have the intention of going out and satisfying yourself, as she has told you to, but at the same time I won't judge if you do. If you can exercise more patience until she changes that would be best. Remember your vows... "for better or worse....".

Wow. This advice though undecided shocked
Please Op don't let anyone help you wreck your home.

What your wife is going through happens to a good number of women and I personally know a number of them that have gone ahead to have satisfying sex lives afterwards.

However, you and your wife need to see a Marriage/Sex Counsellor. I hope she agrees to.

Has your wife ever had an orgasm?
Is her sexual satisfaction an important focus in your sex life?

I’m speaking for myself here. I love an orgasm. I also love the journey to an orgasm. I am reluctant to engage in any sexual activities that do not have an orgasm as the goal, even if I enjoy it.
