So, how do you get more sex in your marriage?

Increasing the amount of sex in your marriage can be difficult if you do not know where to start. The following are some tips for how to get more sex in your marriage:

• Just do it, plan it, schedule it, whatever it takes, the more you do it, the more you will want to.
• If you have settled into a routine sex life and everything is just work, paying the bills, mopping the floor, mowing the lawn, and taking care of the family, try saying "I love you" on a daily basis.
• Simple expressions of affection and love can increase your sex drive and attraction to one another.
• Couples who indulge in frequent terms of endearment, nonsexual touching, such as hugs and pats on the head, and tokens of affection, such as little gifts, have extremely high levels of marital satisfaction, and better sex lives.
• Get more sex in your marriage by changing things up. Try new positions, try new lingerie, set the mood with candles, rose petals, and chocolates.
• A great way to get more sex in your marriage is to leave the hubbub behind and set aside one night a week that is just for you two. No work, homework, cleaning, etc. You do not spend time with kids, friends, or family.just you two. Often times this leads to conversation, expression of opinion, thoughts, hopes, and dreams, which leads to a more intimate relationship. More intimate relationships automatically lead to better, more enjoyable, and more frequent sex.
• Shower together at least once a week. You are both going to shower anyway, so why not do it together and spark a little more intimacy. Showering helps you to enjoy one another's bodies without trying to find the time. Even if all you do is lather each other up, the intimacy of spending time together in the nude can lead to more sex in your marriage.

Why is it important to have more sex in your marriage?
Sex plays a central and profoundly important role in the marriage. It creates bonds, and levels of intimacy that are not ruined by a little disagreement. When you have sex regularly you let your spouse in, you let them see your most intimate and protected side. Being naked with someone is vulnerable, it is a position that exposes your flaws, and weaknesses. When you are this state, and you express your love, you are saying that you love someone despite their imperfections, that you are attracted to them, and that being with them is far more important than all the work, school, or other relationship issues you face each day.

The first step to getting more sex in your marriage is wanting to have more, even if you sex drive or desire is not high. You have to work to increase it, and make sex not just something you do occasionally, but a priority, something you plan on, look forward to, and share just between the two of you.
