Evolving Intimacy: Embracing Change in Your Marriage Bed

The other day, I talked about the need to let go and move on, and what we can miss when we fail to do that. Today I want to apply that to sex.

No, I am not suggesting you need to let go of sex! Far from it.

We generally hold on to what works. And we often keep holding on to it even when it’s not working. And we tend to be especially bad about this when it comes to sex.

If you struggled to find a way of having sex that worked for both you and your wife, it’s understandable to feel you need to guard that. But our minds and our bodies change, and what was great then may not be great now. What was okay then may be not okay now.

I’ve been having sex with the same woman for forty years. It’s still great, and far better than when we started. But it’s not the same. It’s changed over the years many times in big and small ways. Some changes were finding something better, others were finding something that worked because what we’d been doing wasn’t working very well. And those changes are why we both still want and enjoy sex.

If you want to enjoy sex for the rest of your lives, you have to be willing to let go and move on.
