Dear Steve and Shirley, My husband and I are 48 years old. We have a 14-year-old son and a 9-year-old son. And one thing about my husband, he's going to have some kind of intimacy every night of the week. I stopped fighting it when I met him. We had sex on our first date, and we've been together since. It's what made us closer because we have such great chemistry.
When I had our first child, he got jealous, and it killed him to wait until my body was ready for sex again. Everyone in our family knows how spicy we are, and it's a running joke. My mother stayed with us for a week after I gave birth to the second boy. My husband showed out every night, and she finally said something to me about it. She asked if I enjoyed it as much as my husband did. I blushed, and I could not believe my mom asked me that. I can't get my husband to be quiet or stay in one room. He wakes our sons up sometimes because he yells or moans the whole time. He overdoes it every time. His reactions are better than any gift he could ever give me. He always thanks me over and over and calls me his queen.
My two aunts think it is unnatural, and I can't tell if they're both haters, or if there might be really something wrong with my husband. I wouldn't consider him a sex addict, but there are times when he will not take no for an answer.
As we get older, I wonder if I will be able to keep up with him because he does not believe in quickies. Is it cool to still be that loud and wild during intimacy after 16 years of marriage?
