Marriage is a long term relationship which can sometimes turn into a dry spell, causing the embers of passion to die out. The importance of sex cannot however be over-emphasized.

We know that adult life isn't easy, especially with having to work, sorting the bills and dealing with the kids, this doesn't however mean that your sex life has to suffer.

Don't wait till you are in the mood: This happens especially to women who feel they need to be in the mood before they can have sex. However, according to research, desire comes after arousal and not before for a woman, and so you might find out you really needed the sex after all. So, don't wait, just do it, even if it is a quickie. It's one way of reducing stress and connecting with your partner.

Talk about sex: While you are probably used to your partner's body, and are familiar with what he or she is going to do next, it doesn't make not talking about sex okay. When you both have more free time in your hands, talk about the things you both like that is done in the bedroom and what you'd like done too. The talk can also help turn up the heat and you know where that leads.

Be open-minded: Whilst it is okay not to feel pressure or be intimidated by your styles in the bedroom, because sex is not porn, it is okay to approach sex with an open mind and communicate your wants and desires.

Try something new: Getting into familiar patterns can cause your partner to go on auto-pilot because they know what's going to happen next. However, once in a while, ensure you try something new.
