Love Sex Marriage: Relationship Advice

marriageLove Sex Marriage Advice for Married Couples On How To Avoid an Unhappy Marriage

A marriage is a union between two people and has many very different components to it: love sex marriage family. Married couples create a home together in order to share their lives, finances, interests, family, leisure time and sometimes work too.

When you consider how multi-faceted two people can be and how much synergy is needed for them to live together for decades, is it any surprise that so many unions fall apart?

But you need to know that a happy marriage is possible. However, as you probably already know, it doesn’t just happen all by itself. Just because you are no longer a youth and dating doesn’t mean you don’t have to make an effort to keep your relationship healthy. A couple has to work at a marriage for it to have any chance of succeeding.

Sex is an important part of any loving relationship. It isn’t always as important once a relationship is established as it is in love’s first flush but it can’t be ignored either. Sex isn’t just about lust, it creates intimacy and intimacy is the foundation of any loving relationship.

And what about love and being romantic? Are they only for new lovers? Absolutely not. They are important elements in a sustainable marriage. How often do you hear complaints about being taken for granted? If you invest time and effort in keeping the love alive through romantic gestures then you won’t become complacent and your partner will be in no doubt about your feelings for them.

How does family fit into a marriage? Sometimes well, other times it is the powder keg that ultimately blows the relationship apart. Parenting can take a heavy toll on a couple if they don’t continue to nurture their own bond along the way. Parents that investing all their energy in their children while ignoring their own needs and that of their marriage mean that sooner or later they will realise that there is little left to sustain their primary relationship.

And then there are other issues which can arise as time goes on.  What if you are a Christian and enjoy reading the bible and your mate has no interest in anything biblical? How about if one of you has an addiction? How do you reconcile those differences?

Look for updates answers to tough questions….

  1. With reference to your Love, Sex, Marriage – Relationship Advice post, and something we think might resonate with what you are seeking to clearly address and encourage… we would invite you to take a look at the unique couple’s game we released earlier this year:

    A PRIVATE AFFAIR: The Erotic Game of Secrets, Plans & Promises for Couples
    http://www.aprivateaffairgame.com

    Unlike most couples games, this one couples can play together, “on the fly” as they move through the sometime routine, and unremarkable bits and pieces of their lives. Folks mainly play this in restaurants, or over coffee, or while out for a walk. As you head out the door, just pocket a few cards, and you’re set!

    There are a number of reviews linked from the game site which will help give a flavour of the game.

    All the best! Kind regards,

  2. As the saying goes “Marriages are made in heaven”, a fact of married life is that all marriages sooner or later come down to earth and passion and intensity starts to lessen. Other priorities begin to take over time and attention, nothing more so than the arrival of children to the family. You discover, as almost every married couple before you has discovered, that the feeling called “romantic love” has to be constantly nurtured by a continuous process of meeting each other’s emotional needs.

    So, how do you define an emotional need? It is a deep down desire within you that, when it is satisfied, gives a feeling of extreme happiness and contentment. If this desire is unsatisfied, you are left with a feeling of unhappiness and frustration. It therefore follows, that when a husband and wife meet each other’s emotional needs, they will be happy and contented with each, experience passionate love, and stay in love for as long as their emotional needs are met.

    Everyone has differing emotional needs, even in cases where both spouses have the same emotional needs, their priorities for each emotional need may be different. As an example, love and romance for many men are sex and recreation; for most women this is more often affection and intimate conversation. So, what if such a husband and wife were to spend a recreational evening together, show intense affection, with deep, intimate conversation, wouldn’t it lead to a true night of sexual fulfillment and passionate love, since the most important emotional needs of both partner have been fully met.

    When you and your husband first fell in love it was most likely because you both met some of each others emotional need. Once the honeymoon period is over to maintain this love both partners need to focus on continuing to meet these initial and other emotional needs.

    A first step on this journey is to identify what your most important emotional needs are. What would it take for your partner to make you feel most happy and content? Why no sit down with a sheet of paper and list what you would like your spouse to do (or even stop doing) to give you the greatest happiness right now. Try to come up with five of these emotional needs, in order of priority. Get your partner to do the same and when you are both ready, exchange papers.

    Once you and your partner, know exactly what you can do for each other that will make you both the happiest and contented, it only remains for you both to practice and meet each others needs. The length you both go to meet these needs will be measured by the intensity of the love and passion that re-ignites in your marriage.
