The New 'Normal' for Couples, Like The Number Keeping Secrets

1/23/2013




According to a new survey, 40% of couples say they have sex three to four times a week.  That's two in five couples.  But don't get too depressed if you're not there, this is for ALL couples, both married and people who still get-it-on all the time.   So, it makes sense.  And so does this:  The next most-common answer was "a few times a month", which was given by one in four couples.   7.5% of couples, or one in 13, have sex EVERY DAY.  And 4.5%, or about one in 22 said they NEVER have sex.  

But here's where the survey gets interesting:  They also found that a lot of us are HIDING SOMETHING.  43% of men and 33% of women say they're keeping a MAJOR secret from their partner.  That's two in five men, and a third of women.   Even among the couples who say they're HAPPY, one in four are keeping secrets from each other.  Check out some of the other findings.

Men are almost twice as likely as women to believe in love at first sight:  48% of guys have had it happen to them, but only 28% of women have. 

And TWO THIRDS of couples say that they do NOT sleep naked.
