Have You & Your Partner Lost That Lovin’ Feeling? [EXPERT]

After many years of being in a committed relationship, both people very busy, kids running around, family obligations, and possibly even two careers and a household to manage, it’s not shocking that intimacy would be the last thing on someone's mind.

It's so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day routine of life and meanwhile the things that are most cherished get lost in the shuffle. Whether it's because you're too tired, doing too much, or putting everything ahead of yourself and your partner, lack of intimacy in a relationship can definitely take a toll. 3 Keys to Creating More Physical Intimacy With Your Partner

In 2011, Durex did a survey asking about the frequency of sex versus people's satisfaction levels. Here are the findings:

• "Satisfaction with what we do 'in the bedroom' is mediocre ... we're not as happy as we could be or want to be."
• "Almost 2/3 of us don't feel we have sex often enough."
• "Half believe our sex lives lack excitement & variety." (1)

It is not a good sign that relationships are lacking in the area of couple’s bonding. Intimacy is so important in a relationship for many reasons, one being that it can be the glue that keeps things together during stressful times and it even reduces stress. (2)

There are some really simple and fun things you can do that can help bring back that lovin' feeling if you just take a few minutes and put some effort into it. I bet your partner will appreciate it as well! How To Appreciate A Failed Relationship (Yes, I'm Serious)
