Friday Flashback: Just Fix the Sex

“…they wanted to talk about sex, and wanted me to repair their “low desire” for each other. I told them that low desire with someone you don’t like or trust isn’t pathological, isn’t a problem to fix. Instead, I said, we needed to address the toxic environment in which they thought they should be wanting sex.” ~ Dr. Marty Klein, on his blog.

Friday Flashback: Just Fix the Sex

Dr. Klein isn’t a Christian, and you won’t like some of his worldview, but he’s dead on in the post I quoted from above. Sex doesn’t happen in a vacuum, and every part of your life has some impact on your sexuality. In particular, every contact you have with your bride helps or hurts sex for both of you; especially for her. It doesn’t take many negatives to dampen her desire for sex, and/or her ability to enjoy sex. And while we guys are generally better able to have sex despite a relationship full of problems, these problems do harm our desire and our enjoyment – especially if we’re no longer in the grip of the blind physical drive of our teens and 20s.

There are exceptions, but for most the best way to get a better sex life is to start by working on things totally unrelated to sex. Learn to communicate, to enjoy time together, to care for and honour each other, and good sex will be a lot more easily had.

BTW, I know that sometimes relationship problems get much worse after sex falls off, and sometimes the problems are largely the fault of a drop off in sex. But don’t let the assumed cause and effect lead you to think the thing to work on is sex; regardless of why there are non-sexual problems, they’re hurting your sex life

    I am so Happy to be writing this article in here, i am here to explore blogs and forum about the wonderful and most safe cure for HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS . I was positive to the deadly Virus called HERPES and i lost hope because i was rejected even by my closet friends. My parents tried all they could to save my life, but it was not easy for them. I have been to several hospital and even different pastors has prayed over this, but still there was nothing to show, Until one blessed day when my elder sister was browsing and searched online to know and make further inquire about cure for HERPES and she saw a lady called Grace Amanda giving her own life testimony on how she was cured of HSV 1/HSV2 BY Dr ARAMUDE AND SEVERAL testimony online on how he HAS cured so many persons from Herpes Disease and even many more so i decided to contact the great herbalist on his private email.
