How do you manage that with your significant other when the imbalance is over a longer term and may be down to factors such as stages of life or long-term health issues?

Talk to them

Speaking from personal experience here, communication is key.

We have discussed this before.

Plenty of potential playmates out there.

Shame there isn't a "like" function but I agree that it has to be talked about with empathy and consideration.

Personally, if it was my libido that was down then I have no problem with my partner getting what she needs with others as long as the love for us remained.

Sex is important to a relationship but it's also important to the individual and I wouldn't want to be the reason someone missed out on something just because I didn't fancy it.

Talk and listen. Really listen to the other. There's not a one size fit all way of approaching it bar communication.

I've always had a significantly higher libido than any longterm partner I've had. If it needs to be discussed, it is.

Carlisle usually

Communication. Openness.

I don't do monogamy so I probably can't answer the question in a way that makes sense to people who prefer to adhere to that.

I said “hey! Is it ok if I shag other people?”

She said yes.

Unfortunately other people didn’t get the memo.

My wife doesn’t wasn’t sex anywhere nearly as often as me. It led to tension and now we are sleeping in separate rooms for the last 6 months.

I find there's asynchronous periods where it's something between us or it's an alternative factor, as you describe.

I find the conversation is usually enough for me, having that clarity.

I don't tend to have powerful sexual drives without the inspiration of a partner, which comes with it's complexities. However, in this regard it's perhaps something of a blessing.

Sex isn't just penetration.. if she's not doing other things to fulfill his penetration requirements then he's not doing enough to fulfill her libido requirements.. it's a choice and both have chosen not to want to resolve it together
