5 Things couples can do to maintain desire in long term relationships

Rekindling intimacy starts with letting go of the myth of spontaneous desire and recognizing that both spontaneous and responsive desire require effort, planning, and prioritization. Open communication about wants, needs, and evolving preferences is key, as is focusing on quality over quantity when it comes to sex. Expanding your definition of intimacy beyond intercourse, embracing pleasure as the guiding principle, and rejecting rigid ideas of what’s “normal” can help couples rediscover connection and satisfaction in their sex lives.

In the rush of daily life—kids, careers, chores, and endless notifications—it’s easy to put your relationship on the back burner.
