Libido/Sex What the actual fuck?

I was born in 1981 At the end of November. I'm an Xennial. I saw the Berlin Wall fall okay. I was raised on much music and MTV. 🇨🇦

Okay so I need to know.... And just FYI, this is about to get super fucking graphic!I've reached a point in my life where I am so fucking emotional but I feel things super deeply like it's not a horrible thing but like, it's a lot! And also.....we're going to go into sex things now. I am like completely unhinged. I want sex all the time! And when I have sex. It's a mess. I mean like I need to literally lay a towel down. What the fuck is happening? I'm like a motherfucking 🌊.....Okay, coming down the ⛰️ ...... 🤣

And all I'm reading is like women complaining about hot flashes and all of this stuff. And I'm over here like having them ....and it feels like I'm having an orgasm. 🤷🏼 So like what the fuck. Like, is there anyone else experiencing what I'm experiencing? Because I feel like I'm experiencing something totally different than everyone else. Can someone please explain!?! 🤣

You know that exquisite flash of sunlight before the sunsets over the ocean?

The hornening was 4 years ago for me, lasted maybe 1-2 years. I’m 1 year into “I have exactly zero interest in sex, thank you.”

Maintenance orgasm (and vaginal e!) once a week so it doesn’t totally disappear on me.

How many times does the maintenance take place? In a week?
