My lover and I can’t stop having sex – and it’s disrupting our working lives

We have an insatiable desire for each other. But it’s stopping us developing the less sexual sides of our relationship

My partner and I, both of us women, have a lot of sex. It’s got to the point where we miss appointments and are late to meetings. We are in a long-distance relationship, but even when we’re apart from one another we masturbate on the phone a lot.

She thinks we’re not normal and need help, though I think we are just extremely attracted to one another. We have tried to reduce the amount of sex we have but it just doesn’t work long term. When we do see each other, we will spend the whole trip having sex. Even at my parents’ house we somehow found a way to have sex with each other.
