Dear Ruthie,
My boyfriend’s sex drive is out of control. He wants it three times every day. At first this was hot, and I loved every minute of it. Now I’m tired and even losing interest sort of.
I must tell you that there is an age difference. I’m 54 and he’s 26, so obviously that’s part of it. I can’t believe that this is the entirety of the problem, however. I want to talk to him about it, but I’m afraid it will turn him off, and he’ll leave me. Do you have any suggestions on how I can curb his enthusiasm, so to speak?
(Signed)
Sore Sabastian
Dear Sorry,
Poor baby! Hooking up with a 20-some year-old is rubbing your pecker the wrong way? Sounds like someone wants to roam the chicken coop but can’t keep up with the hatchlings.
Stop yer bitching! You found a hot young thing interested in barbecuing your wiener so saddle up to the all-you-can-eat buffet and get busy. Unless, of course, there is other trouble brewing. Take a look at the relationship to see if this is really the problem or if there’s something else bothering you. Regardless, you need to address your concerns with your nympho. Calmly explain what you’re feeling and try to agree on a solution you can both live with. If he leaves you over something so silly, then it’s likely time to let this birdie leave your nest.
