Expert Advice: Too Busy for Sex?

QUESTION: I don't know what's happened to my marriage. We've always had the most incredible sex, the kind where you're left shaking and staring at each other.

And yet, over the last year, it's almost died out. I know you can't keep up that level of intensity, and we don't expect that.

We both work hard, so we're permanently tired and not in the mood. I still love my husband and he loves me and there's no one else. So what's going on?

ANSWER: Busy lives are the scourge of the bedroom. Even so, it's possible to get your work out of your head and put the sparkle back in your bed.

Begin by scheduling time for each other every day -- at least 15 minutes of uninterrupted time.

Make a date to walk in the park, go out for dinner, or share other activities you both enjoy. Ideally, do this once a week.

Relax by giving each other a massage or taking a shower together.

Go to bed at the same time. Keep the TV out of the bedroom. Watching TV can be sexual suicide.

Take pleasure in being together by hugging, kissing and caressing.
