For long-term couples: how do you wives initiate sex, and how often?

Ask r/Marriage

I posted a similar post in the opposite perspective and it had lots of feedback, thanks!

Is it:

•	Verbal and direct?

•	Flirting or teasing throughout the day?

•	Physical touch or closeness?

•	Clear signals that remove guesswork?

•	Or something simple that says “I want you” without a whole buildup?

And how often are you ladies making the moves?

I’m not talking about early dating or honeymoon phase. I mean real life: work stress, kids, exhaustion, routine, mental load.

Husbands: What actually makes you feel desired, wanted?
