January 2, 2009, Newsletter Issue #149: Timing is Everything

Tip of the Week


Good things take time. Be patient with your partner and the progress of your sexual relationship. It may seem startling to some, but remember that sex drive ebbs and flows. Think about your own right now: When you were without a partner, what kind of sex life did you have with yourself? Did you masturbate every day? If so, did you take time and do it in a loving way? Was it more of a function toward physical release? Sometimes both?

Almost everyone experiences a dip in sex drive. This is normal. If yours and your partners’ don’t match, find other ways to be intimate until things get back on track. You may wish to try this section’s “Having (a) Sex Fast” exercise during these times or just as a way to practice sexual closeness without penetration. And don’t forget to talk to each other!

Regardless of how you choose to share sexual intimacy, remember that the quality far outweighs the quantity. Mutual respect and loving attitudes throughout your relationship can transform even that quickie before a dinner party into a meaningful encounter that you and you and your partner can share forever.
