M (27) here, in a long term relationship (also 27).

Just wondering how often those in long term relationships / of a similar age are having sex. Relationship is great in pretty much every other respect, so can't say I'm really considering breaking up, but it's becoming an issue as our libidos are clearly so different.

We've been together 5 years and I'd say that we get intimate once or twice a month. I probably masturbate solo every 2 - 3 days. I have mentioned it twice, it improved for a short time after this but quickly went back to normal.

People say 20s are for having fun, I have been faithful so far but when I'm out and/or get any attention it's been difficult not to cheat.

So how often do you get intimate and is it something you worry about?
