How to get my mind off sex?

My fiance is a truck driver and only home 3 days per month. Although we have sex when he comes home, four weeks is too long for me to go without sex! I think about it all the time. I have even made out with my ex (no sex involved). I try to pleasure myself, but it is just temporary relief. I have been having thoughts of other men now, which is awful. I know I would never cheat on my fiance, but how to I get my mind off of sex?

Update:

My fiance does not count kissing as cheating, we have already discussed it and I was honest with him about what happened. I am marrying him because I love him. He took this job to support us. I wish I could go with him, but already have two degrees and a good job.

    You are only engaged and your response to lack of sex was to make out with someone else? Do you really think this bodes well for your future marriage. You need to talk with him about his career choices and the impact it will have on your marriage.

    I suggest he either finds a job at a company that allows him shorter routes, the ability to come home at the end of the day, or that you join him on the road.

    Your marriage is not going to last the way things are now. You need to talk with your man and if you can not handle the responsibility of separation then it is not fair for you to marry him.

    You could try phone sex... I am sure his truck has a sleeping compartment behind his seat... maybe you could try singing each other a lullaby. Good Luck, I hope you find a happy medium.

    So he is OK with you making out with someone else... Why would you be OK with it? You might as well just have an open relationship and say what he does on the road is none of your business and what you do when he is gone is none of his.... What kind of life is that?

    I think most people are not answering your questiona bout how to get your mind off sex, but are rather criticizing you for your mutual agreement about kising that you made with your fiancee.

    I think one way to get your mind off sex is to look at growse pictures which you can find planty of at rotten.com. Or what I also like to do is to turn the music on and dance until you cannot move your body anymore. however that only works when you are a little bit turned on. When it is really bad you can go jogging or do more active sports until you pretty much fall over and are so sore that the pain of your muscles exceeds the pain that you didn't get any sex in too long.

    It also helps to take up some new hobby that you always wanted to try. Where you have to learn and concetrate on it. You will be fascinated by your progress and redirect your love passion to a hobby passion. For example, it could be fulfilling to you to paint a nude person or make a nude sculpture, because you can realease all your sexual energy into that piece of art.

    You should also ask you finacee if it would be cool with him if you had something with a woman. If he is ok with you just fulfilling physical needswith another woman, you might have a solution.

    You crossed the line when you made out with your ex, doesn't matter if there was no sex involved. How long has your fiance been a truck driver and when did this become a problem? If you can't accept his job and work schedule then why are you getting married to him if sex is important to you? You made out with your ex but you claim you will never cheat on your fiance.....who are you trying to convince. Unless you masturbate every day for temporary relief you will just have to accept having sex 3 days out the month.

    Life is hard that way. Even for a guy with his wife around much of the time, a person like me can find myself thinking about sex as if the world is filled with opportunities that I won't be able to experience. That's when finding other outlets works well. Fantasizing, writing, trying new things, sharing ideas...all of the helps. I think the problem might be that you don't feel like a part of the rest of the world much of the time (sexually and otherwise) and you hunger to be out there experiencing things. I've been there.

    The problem here seems to be that you don't mention that you want sex, specifically, with your fiance. You just want sex. Not a very good frame of mind/body to be in if you are going to commit to marriage. Particularly one that requires the person that you should be having sex with, not to be around very much when you're wanting sex. Does this situation seem ludicrous to you? By the way, if you have two degrees and a good job, why on Earth would your fiance be forced to take his job to support you two?

    Have you ever thought about being a truck driver and team drive with your guy? I drove a truck 11 years ago and I'm under 5 feet tall. Absolutely loved it and made great money$$$. There are some amazing places across the country to have sex too. Good Luck.

    You already cheated on your hubby by making out with your ex (no sex involved). Lip lock counts as cheating in any married man's book.

    Either start accompanying him on the road or he needs to get a job that will put him home every night or you'll have to get a divorce.

    having thouhts with other men is still counted as cheating though theres no action involved at that time..your mind is free to think other men...

    the point here is not only sex, you are not worthy to be trusted by your man.....poor guy

    How do you make out with someone without sex? If you made out with your "ex", you cheated on your bf. Go get some toys.
