Do you want more intimacy in your relationship? Let’s take the rose-coloured glasses off and talk about sex and the intimacy needed for sexual intimacy which combines the physical act of sex with emotional closeness and trust.
What you want and what is reality can be very different and the myths you tell yourself to keep you looping in your head (your drama cycle) like:
- My partner should know what I want
- My partner should know how I feel
- Sex should be spontaneous
- Men want sex all the time
- Women don’t like sex
Myths can create a lot of pain and a breakdown of communication in your relationship. This episode gives you a Place to Start.
Become Curious which leads to Conversations which leads to Connection which leads to Closeness.
A powerful exercise involving the Ideal World and the Actual World, the good-enough world.
I have seen couples take their relationship from little sex and disconnect to a close, strong, loving, intimate relationship with regular sex. Intimacy is very closely linked to sex and if you want more sex there needs to be more conversations and communication that create intimacy.
At the end of the day, getting the sex life and intimacy you want in your relationship is up to you.
