How to Get all the Sex You Want (or How to Want All You Get)

Leave your comment

passion How to Get all the Sex You Want (or How to Want All You Get)
I once read about a marriage counselor who gives each partner a questionnaire before he starts their first session. One part of the survey asks about the frequency of sex in their marriage.

How often do you and your spouse have sex (circle one)?

All the time – Frequently – Average – Occasionally – Almost never – Never

How many times per week? __________________

Frequently a husband will circle “almost never,” the wife will circle “all the time,” and both will answer “2 times per week.”

Why is there often such a big gap in expectations between partners? Why are these expectations so frequently unfulfilled? What can you do about it? Read the rest of this entry

My Husband Seems Distant. What Does This Mean?

husband seems distant My Husband Seems Distant. What Does This Mean?
For years, everything has seemed OK in your marriage. Sure, you’ve had a few issues, but nothing out of the ordinary. Your marriage is pretty normal.

Suddenly your husband seems distant

However, you sense a sudden change. You think, “my husband seems distant.” Without any real reason you can see, your husband seems emotionally distant. When you’re together, it’s almost as if he’s not “into” the moment. He seems closed-off and won’t talk about anything important. Read the rest of this entry

Is it Possible to Have True Equality in Marriage?

Comments (2)

Some of the worst ongoing fights in a marriage can be a result of inequalities in the marriage. These battles are often the ones that rise up over and over again – sometimes in circumstances that have nothing to do with the original argument. They’re also often the things that can be brought back up for years.

Let me give you some examples. Read the rest of this entry

How to Make My Husband Happy? Love is a Verb!

redumbr 300x225 How to Make My Husband Happy? Love is a Verb!
If you’re asking yourself “how to make my husband happy,” you are closer to an answer to improving your marriage than you might think.

Often we tend to shift a great deal of the blame for marriage issues to our spouse instead of taking responsibility. That’s not fair nor is it realistic. It’s best to focus on what you can do to make your marriage better. One of the most effective steps to take is to work at making love a verb rather than a noun.

In most marriages, people tend to think of love as a thing. They are sad that they don’t seem to have as much of it as they used to. They might be sad that love is completely missing from their marriage. In addition to, “how to make my husband happy,” I often hear other questions like, “where did the love go?” Read the rest of this entry

failure to communicate 300x228 Communication Really is the Key to Saving a Marriage (or Keeping Yours Strong)
I have come to believe that great communication or the lack of it is one of the most important factors in whether or not a marriage will survive and even in saving a marriage. Yes, trust is also at the top of the list, however, over and over I’ve seen where trust is broken after communication starts breaking down. Let me give you a real-world scenario:

Mary loves her new husband, Bob, with all her heart. Yes, it bothers her a little bit when Bob drops his dirty socks on the bedroom floor, but she doesn’t say anything — she doesn’t want something insignificant to cause a rift in their otherwise great relationship.

Fast-forward 13 years. Read the rest of this entry

canyon Helloooooo over there...
This last weekend there was a couple sitting in front of us in church.

Well, I’m guessing they were a couple.

They came in together. They left together. But they weren’t really sitting next to each other. There was room for at least two large people between them.

Both the man and the woman sat through church with folded arms. They never even turned their heads towards one another. Read the rest of this entry
