A Low Sex Marriage

"Sex, sex, sex. Everywhere you turn it's sex. I've had it up to here. Not lately though." ~ Rodney Dangerfield.

We understand that the frequency of sex drops over time. We get older, life gets busy. But when your sex life lessens dramatically, it could be a red flag showing that there are other problems in your marriage.

Fact: Low sex marriages have a high rate of separation.

You are in a low sex marriage if...

* You have sex once or twice a month.

* You have sex if you've set a schedule for it.

* There is no intimacy, you're going through the motions.

* Sex has become a chore.

* It seems that you are the only one who wants to have sex.

* Your spouse doesn't show any interest in sex unless prompted.

* There is no spontaneity.

What can be done? Studies show that couples who communicate and share activities together are more active sexually. But if there are underlying issues in the relationship and you don't really want to talk or be together - ironically - you're screwed.

You need to work on what is wrong at the core. Talk to each other, sort it out.
Sex will follow.

Stay in touch -
