I know this wasn't the problem you were dealing with, but would you have thought it was too much and too often if he jumped you by surprise about once ever day? Maybe skipping a day here and there, but then two or three times in a day on Saturday, etc.?
When I was pregnant, no. When I was in my early 40's no! Those were really hormonal times for me. Now, yes. Every day is too much. Build up and a little denial makes for better sex.
What do you think the solution is for a guy like me in his early 60's, but still wants sex about as much as he did in his 20's? Sure, I accept that for many men and women, their interest or physical comfort for frequent sex drops off. But it doesn't make me, personally, any less frustrated. I'm irked by the often implied suggestion that I should not want sex as often -- something I started hearing from my wife after the first few years of marriage, and which we have agreed not to talk about anymore since it goes nowhere. And I'm especially irked to hear the suggestion that at age 60, I should be less interested in intercourse, or not have it at all and just cuddle and have non-intercourse like things. Try telling that to a 20-year old, and that's my reaction too!
So how would you handle it if your husband really wanted sex once a day? Try it anyway, or try to convince him that you're happy to do non-intercourse types of things, or tell him to just contain himself? Or say you wouldn't mind if he just took a centerfold magazine into the bathroom and just took care of himself?
