"You Are Normal You are normal if you are in a long-term relationship, and by that I mean you've been together more than a handful of years, and you struggle with some aspects of sensual desire and your sexual life. When I survey the couples who attend my masterclass, only 6 percent of them say they still have a great sex life. This is true of couples of all ages and stages."
"Sexual desire disconnect: One of you wants sex, one does not. You rarely (or never) make love. Approximately 30 percent of couples are in a clinically defined sexless or low-sex relationship-you make love fewer than six times a year, or not at all. Difficulties in sexual arousal: Even if you like the idea of making love, your body does not seem to turn on."
Only a small fraction of couples report a great sex life; many long-term relationships experience reduced sensual desire. Common problems include mismatched desire, infrequent or absent sex, difficulty becoming aroused, diminished passion and creativity, and retained friendship and parenting alongside lost sexual attraction. Sexuality is an important but often neglected part of a relationship. Rekindling desire requires intentional effort, new skills, and improved communication. Couples can relearn how to talk kindly and effectively about sex, rebuild attraction through creative intimacy, and benefit from structured programs or exercises to restore erotic connection and mutual pleasure.
