When did the "wanting each other all the time" wear off for you? I've been with the BF for almost 8 mths now, and I still, always think about having sex with him. I'm at work right now, and thinking about sex. When I'm driving, I am thinking about sex. When I'm with him, I'm thinking about sex. And it's not like I'm going without, when we are with each other, it's a couple of times a day at least, it's like I can't get enough.
I know this slows down eventually, right? I'm trying to remember back to the beginning of other relationships, but I don't remember feeling this way before, but of course, it's been a LONG time since I've been in a new relationship
With my ex-bf, we were together a year and I never stopped wanting "to jump" him. With XH, I can't say because shortly after we got together I switched BCs and that messed everything up.
Well, Bf and I still want each other, just not all the time. I mean, I look at him all the time and go "damn, he is so handsome." I couldn't say for him, but I do know that he certainly enjoys having sex with me still! I think at this point we've dated for at least over a year.

For me that "have to have him" feeling lasted maybe 6 or so months. Though we weren't at it multiple times a day - my body needs some rest in between!
We've been together a little over 1.5 years and while I still want him, the feeling has definitely decreased in urgency. I think as long as your sexual feelings aren't getting in the way of or overtaking other feelings, enjoy it!
With ex-bf we were together 1 year and that stage lasted until the very end. With H it was about 8 months (right around the time we got engaged/started planning/moved in together and everything fot hectic).

We've been together over a year, though we did break up for a couple of months. We wanted each other constantly before the breakup but since we got back together 2 months ago it has been even more frequent than it was when we first met, not sure what that's about!

It's been two years now with BF, and the 'must jump you all the time' thing lasted a little over a year, I'd say. It still feels that intense, but it's part of the pattern and not the main thing on my mind now.

It's been almost two year for BF and I and I still always want him when we are together. We are kinda of long distance as we only see each other on weekends so that may change if we were to live together and see each other every day. With XH I never wanted him the way I want BF.
FI have been together just over a year, can't get enough of each other, and we work together.....
when i was with XH it wore off in about 3 months when we were dating and we only saw each other on weekends and spent most of our dating and married life long distance.

Ok, glad to see that I'm not some total crazy horn dog LOL I see BF probably 5-6 days a week (that's a lot, I know) and can't get enough of him. I was lucky to get any action with my exH once a week in the beginning and towards the end it was once every few months (he had a low sex drive, claimed it was due to medications he was on) so this whole "can't keep our hands off of each other" is kind of new for me.

In my current relationship, the constant desire died down after about 4 or 5 months. By died down though we went from 3 times a day to once a day/5 days a week. It has slowed down even more now but that is because I have been in and out of the hospital since March (currently inpatient). We now have sex about once a week. He keeps trying to have sneaky hospital sex though. Lol I wouldn't be opposed to a quickie if I wasn't afraid of getting caught.
