I always initiate it, would be nice for her to initiate it once in a while.

I think it should be both ways and I need to work on initiating it.

Initiated. I like to feel wanted.

I like both sometimes.

I like both too. When I'm feeling sexy it's nice to initiate and feel like I can drive you crazy with desire.

Initiate.

Initiated definately. Everyone wants to feel wanted and when your partner initiates intamacy it's an indication that your desired. Sometimes I intiate, but lately I have had a low libido and I have let it dictate those moments for me.

Both. The more the merrier.

I prefer for him to initiate it...

Him to initiate it.

I know. Our sex life is almost non existent now. I wish I knew the answer. I think we just need to continue to work on things and remember we love each other.

depends on my mood.

I love my beautiful wife. When I initiate it sometimes feels like you are just to tired because you don't seem to be responding. I will stop rather than be pushy.

Both

I LIKE BOTHHHHHHH

Have it initiated

Yes!

No preference, though my wife might think I prefer her initiation.
