Does the following scenario sound familiar to you?
The alarm goes off in the morning, you hit the ground running, reviewing your to do list while you rush through your workout, get kids out the door, prepare for work.
The day zooms by, with energy going out to the world – family/work/community. The evening is filled with the usual chores, leaving you falling into bed with gratitude to finally be horizontal again.
If you’re in a relationship, you turn to your beloved to say sweet dreams, only to find he’s looking at you from under wagging eyebrows, with a twinkle in his eye!
As you look back in shock, you think to yourself, ‘shoot, did I leave out the Victoria Secret catalog?’ Or ‘did he see some racy commercial on TV or a billboard?’ (Men are aroused by what they see!)
You don’t have one ounce of energy left in your body for anything. SLEEP is calling to you, not sex!
Here’s what I suggest: Return your beloved’s siren song with a loving smile, a warm hug, remind him he’s the man of your dreams, and then set a date for when you plan on having him take you to the moon.
Women are phenomenal at planning, scheduling, and executing. We need to apply these skills to our intimate life, too. Create the space – set the time – make a commitment – no matter what.
I know – you’re TIRED. But trust me, once you get started… your fatigue will disappear, and you’ll find yourself revved up and zooming along the happy trail of ooh-la-la.
Not only does your relationship need the intimate bonding time, YOU need it, too! Sensual pleasure and intimacy restores our creative juices, and it’s so good for our hearts, bodies and minds.
Visit Bring Back Desire where you’ll find tools, tips and resources to help keep your love, intimacy and passion alive!
