How do you keep passion alive in a long-term relationship when sexual desire no longer comes as easily as it did at the beginning? We look at why having more sex does not necessarily create more desire, how intimacy, context, and freedom shape attraction, and what passion can become after many years together.
You still love your partner, but your sexual desire has faded or disappeared. We look at why you may not want sex with your partner, how resentment, relationship dynamics, stress, and exhaustion can affect desire, and why a loss of sexual desire does not necessarily mean that love is gone.
When almost everything in a relationship becomes shared, closeness can slowly turn into losing sight of each other as two separate people. We look at how not to lose yourself in a relationship, why personal space matters, and how separateness can help keep curiosity, interest, and passion alive in a long-term relationship.
You love each other, get along well, and still want to be together, but sexual desire has become less intense. We look at why passion fades in long-term relationships and why it doesn’t always mean that something is wrong with the love between you.
Why is it so difficult to understand how to leave a toxic relationship, even when we know it is hurting us? A look at emotional dependency, the hope that a partner will change, the good moments we hold on to, and the imagined future that can sometimes be harder to let go of than the person themselves.
