The problem with sex as we age is that life gets busier, our needs change, our bodies change and we may lose the excitement of new relationships. Therefore, it's important that a couple vows to make a healthy sex life a priority.
Another bit of love advice Barry McCarthy gives couples is to not expect Hollywood sex relationships. "When you're living together and have two kids, two jobs, etc., if you're having Hollywood sex once a month, then you're doing great," he says. In fact, 15% of the average happy couple's sexual encounters aren't even enjoyable for one or both partners.
Sometimes it's hurried, uncomfortable, someone's not in the mood or orgasm isn't reached, he explains, but the key is to have sex often so it doesn't seem as though something is wrong with the relationships romance if everything doesn't play out like a day-time soap opera.
There are many ways to invigorate sex relationships. Some couples save lovemaking for nighttime but find they're often too tired to make it happen or it becomes like a routine chore. Relationships sex therapists recommend changing it up sometimes.
Have sex in the morning, when the body is still feeling the effects of natural dopamine, when the mind is fresh and clear. Or couples can take an overnight excursion to a bed-and-breakfast or hotel to change up the scenery and keep it interesting.
Mentally, couples should focus on enjoying the present moment, slowing things down and making eye contact. Perhaps a visit to a sex shop, a lingerie store or buying the Kama Sutra book of sexual positions can bring new intrigue to a relationships sexual encounter.
