Challenges to Marriage/Long-Term Relationships

 Physical Fitness

 

If you are healthy, you will enjoy sex more and feel more confident about your body.

 

Personal Maturity

Grown people enjoy sex more because they have more experience, are emotionally equipped to handle a relationship that is a diad, no one-way or selfish. Anxiety is an intimacy killer.

Cultural Acceptability

Great sex happens when moral and spiritual growth is occurring. If one or both of you are anxious about "good" sex or something is "wrong" the you have a challenge.

Relationship Success

We know that a "successful relationship" enjoys better sex than those in conflict and frustration. Increasing the communication and improving areas of weakness leads to better sex in a relationship.

Spiritual and Energetic Vitality

Having a conscious open mind, with oneness, being aware of the other person's needs, and being focused on someone other than yourself goes a long way. Powerful energy and creativity is key. Making love is better than getting laid. Being blocked and detached and focusing on something else is a sex killer.

I wasn't requesting people to air their private moments to me....although if they do, that's fine, I hear that all the time at my job. That's why I didn't put a poll up. I just wanted ppl to feel comfortable reading this, getting the necessary help, and not feeling oblgated to discuss issues that make them uncomfortable...thanks fo your comment! :)

Interesting facts. I'm not surprised about the Japanese since they work so darn much. Married couples average 98 times per year. Honestly, that is more than I thought, especially during the child-rearing years. Anyway, well done.
