Even if you don\u2019t have children, the newness of the relationship wears off after 3 or 4 years together. Typically, this is when sex becomes more routine. \u201cIntimacy breaks down at this stage because couples don\u2019t talk about their sex life,\u201d According to a John Hopkins Article: \u201cCouples aren\u2019t as intentional about connecting with each other as they were earlier in the relationship." Besides the age of a relationship, other factors can lead to less intimacy, too. Career and family pressures can take up your time and kill your energy. Relational resentments can develop over time as well. If you find yourself avoiding sex, you\u2019re not alone: Approximately 1 in 10 women experiences a decrease in her sex drive at some point in her life. Let's break down some ways to please your partner whether you are having an adventurous sex life or a mildly boring one.
