Save Your Sex Life

Have you lost that loving feeling? A midlife sex crisis isn't as rare as you may think. Authors Laurence Roy Stains and Toby Hanlon tackle the subject in their article Can Your Sex Life be Saved? for Women.com.

While you may be happy with your marriage, the authors say studies show that it's likely you're not quite as satisfied with your sex life. Surveys show that the frequency of sex decreases as your age increases.

This is due, in part, to what psychologists call "habituation." This means that people in a long-term relationship find the marriage is more comfortable than it is sexy. And living in the '90s is just plain tiring.

Tired or not, sexual love is an important part of a healthy marriage. So the experts say you have to make time for intimacy. Consider it a priority and watch the sparks fly.
