How long constitutes a sex drought?

LOL I have a bad short term memory and so does my boyfriend. This wouldn't work out too well. The days blend together during the summer.

A lull is like... a week.
A drought is like a month.
It's so ironic, since my partner doesn't have as high of a libido as I do. I'm always begging him for sex.

About a month depending.....

I chose "Months" because right now I'm in a relationship but my partner has been away for 8 super long, agonizing months and I really NEED some action. But if I weren't in a relationship, I could handle the abstinence better.

I haven't had sex in 3 years technically speaking, so I can't say much.

We get really busy... but at a month I'd be going crazy!

This one is a little complex for us... for me, I'd like sex every day. My partners sex drive just isn't - and is never going to be - that high.
I answered a couple of weeks though - because, with his sex drive, I'd be happy to get it once a week. It's not the ideal frequency, but it's a frequency I can live with. We have, before, gone over a month. I was climbing the walls.

to be a true drought in my opinion it has to be months, granted if you are in a relationship months without sex may seem ridiculous, but still to me a drought is not getting it more than once a month in a relationship, or more than 3 months if Im single

I can go a week without going insane, although I don't like it much. Just because I get super worked up if it's been more than a couple of days doesn't mean it's actually a drought. But any more than a week or so, and I certainly feel like I have been wandering the Sahara.

Ugh...ditto. Although, I've noticed that the more we have sex, the more he wants to. I attribute it to my amazing abilities as a lover The more he is reminded that I am the shiz in the sack, the more he wants to bump uglies.

Sometimes Im patient and would just have solo fun, but a week would be pushing it!
Week = EXTREME frustration!

I consider it a drought if it's over a week... because sometimes period-sex just isn't gonna fly. And, if it's beyond that, I get very frisky and demanding. Sneaky, even, I trick-sex.
And now I have to go get an LEEP in a week, which will leave me in a 3-4 week DROUGHT. UGH, I'm gonna cry. Or kill small children.. Hm.

I think a couple of weeks to a month is pushing it for me. Even when I was single, I couldn't last longer than a month. Thank goodness for friends with benefits? hehe
I have had a simliar situation lately with the whole killing the intimacy drive due to family. My husband's parents and one of his brothers are very religious and I have depression. They (or the brother rather) came to the conclusion that because I am pagan and not christian, I am possesed by the devil. The father won't despute the brother's claims saying that it may have been family in the past that has gotten my spiritually clogged so to speak. His mother suffers from schizophrenia but because she has found jesus, there is NO way she's possesed.
Now, my husband at first had borrowed some questionable books from his brother about psychatrists and their experience with demonic possesion and another one on exorcisms. I found them hidden in the trunk of the car and confronted him.
He in turn, told me he thinks his brother is out to lunch and gave him a good talking to. His brother still thinks I am possesed. His parents think it's a possibility and WHY did my husband have the books in the first place?
I was really upset for a while and had no desire to be intimate with my husband. Thankfully that has changed.
Great first year of marriage I tell ya! :/

I know when I am struggling with depression, my sex drive normally takes a dive. It's odd, though, because sex does give a kick of endorphins which make me happy. So it's like I resist that little possibility of joy
But since intensive therapy, a little medication, and a lot more activity outside in the sun, (along with eating food), I haven't been struggling as much! And the sex drive is very present.

it always depends for me. without a partner a drought is months. with a partner, it feels like a drought after about a week.

I think it really depends on what kind of relationship you're in. If you're living with your lover or if you're in a long distance relationship really changes sexual expectations.

Anything over a week and we can't keep our hands off each other! When that 2 week mark gets close it feels like my clit is going to fall off if it doesn't get some love!!!

I think it's months. The longest I have gone without sex with my partner is 3 months, and it was definitely not voluntary.

I hate to go more than a week. I am lucky enough to have my Hubby home & not have to wait more than that normally (damn, stupid, bloody aunt flow!)

For me it depends on what is going on in my life. If I'm dating someone then going more than a few days would be a drought, but if I'm single then it can be anywhere between a week to a few months, maybe even a year. It really all depends on my frame of mind I guess.
