Marriage Advice: Improve Marriage Sex
Article by Justine Reeves
During the course of your day, you and your wife might talk about many things via the phone, email or text messages. Topics between couples often include issues about money and bills, issues with the kids, aging parents or other family members and friends. Rarely do couples talk about the elephant in the room: the decrease in marriage sex. Relaxed sexual relations between a husband and wife keep the relationship healthy and bring a husband and wife closer together.
Pay attention to keeping an open line of dialogue with your wife about every topic. Being unable to talk openly with your wife about sex causes problems in the entire relationship, not just in the sexual part of the relationship.
Take the lead in the relationship by opening a dialogue about sex with your wife. But for goodness’ sake, don’t criticize her or make her feel unattractive. This is the last thing you want to do if you want improve your sex life. Ask your wife what she would like — or what she needs — but tread carefully as it’s easy for each of you to say the wrong thing and end the discussion in a fight. Share with your wife that you are willing to try new things and ask for her suggestions.
Words can be cheap, so find a way to show her you care. It’s the little things that you do that stay with her — helping out with the kitchen cleanup, giving her quiet time to read that magazine or book she wanted or finding a way to give her time away from the children.
Be your wife’s best friend and be willing to listen to what she says. Many husbands don’t take the time to listen to their wives because they think they have to do something to help “fix it” but all your wife wants is a friendly ear. This is the way that she works through her problems is by talking them out. What she’s not interested in is hearing how you think she should fix it.
