Married folks pls share your thoughts esp those who've bn togeda a while.I'm sure i'm not alone in my uncertainty.

Why is the advice usually geared towards women to keep the passion alive? Look sassy, be hot, keep the lipsrsealed tight. Wetin? It takes two to keep passion alive. So to men, step one. . . . . , . . . . , . . . lose the belly. grin Step two[b] stop roaming around like a mountain man because you had kids[/b]. shocked

would you blame us.If the family needs are not being met, it sorta affects ones ego as the 'leader' of the house.

and yeah, i like views other than the womans side as we usually get always. and if i may add, dont turn into the t.v. remote control overlord. wink

@OP - Seems you have your answer. Effort, Effort and more Effort. Nothing stays the same forever, but you can make sure its close to what it was by putting some more effort into it.
As already said by so many here, communication is key. Talk about how you can make it better, be adventurous, look for fun things to do to make it more exciting, be more upfront about your fantasies and what you want/like, DO make time for one another. Fight against boredom, nonchalance, laziness, tiredness and general lackadaisicalness that naturally sets in, in this area. These things are the enemies of a good sex life in a marriage.

Look good, smell nice. Make sure there is always a tidy, clean, nice smelling woman to meet him when he comes home, or when going to bed. Put effort into your appearance, encourage ur husband to put effort into his.

Saying all this, it does help if there was an attraction in the first place!

Nice thread with great responses.

As most people have said life's pressures may not always allow your Intimacy to be good but then there lots of things you can do to prevent it. Plus all the advices people have said, I'ld say you and your husband must also be committed to ensuring your intimacy remains good e.g ensuring your romance remains, helping one another out, making sure your children don't come between you two etc

Anyway, you can always read these books with your hubby:

- How to Make Love to the Same Person for the Rest of Your Life - And Still Love it by Dagmar O'Connor
- How to have great sex for the rest of your life by Val Sampson

All the best in your marriage!



I should get this book.
