It starts with:
Don’t ever think that you are being high maintenance by wanting and needing all these things. Yes this list seems long, but in a loving marriage, these SHOULD come natural. And it is a process! No marriage is perfect, no marriage has all these things all of the time. It is about putting effort continually into your relationship.
But continually striving to better your marriage, to be a good spouse, to be romantic, loving and kind... that’s what matters. You are trying. Your spouse will see that you are trying and hopefully they will try harder too.
Marriage doesn’t have to be perfect to have amazing sexual intimacy.
Intimacy and connection comes with time, with effort, with vulnerability and honesty.
Emotional connection comes with respect, with talking and caring.
If you are struggling with wanting to be intimate, or not feeling like being intimate is really connecting and passionate, figure out what that barrier is causing the disconnect.
Is it resentment? holding onto something that happened? Is it lack of effort and feeling neglected?
Do you feel like your spouse picks their phone over you?
Sit down tonight and have these conversations. Set some easy goals together. Express your love for each other and how you want that spark back. You have to light it, and that takes effort and communication.
Sex really is the temperature gauge for your relationship. If you don’t know what that means, check out our podcast episode on it!

When it comes to maintaining great sex and intimacy in marriage, it truly starts with the little things you do daily. Foreplay in the morning isn't just physical—it sets the tone for emotional closeness throughout the day. Simple acts like flirting, kind words, showing respect, and attentiveness deepen the connection. From my experience, the strongest marriages cultivate this emotional intimacy first, which naturally flows into passionate and satisfying sexual intimacy. In many relationships, challenges like resentment, distractions from phones, or feeling neglected can create barriers. It's important to identify what is causing disconnect and address it openly. Sitting down to share feelings, setting small achievable goals for reconnecting, and expressing love are ways I've seen couples revive their spark. Vulnerability, honesty, and respect are essential building blocks for that closeness. Don't underestimate how much effort and communication matter. Intimacy evolves over time and requires both partners to engage actively. Resources like intimacy apps, podcasts, or challenges focused on connection can provide guidance and fun ways to improve your relationship. For example, an app with intimate games, meaningful conversations, and quizzes encourages couples to explore each other’s desires in a playful, pressure-free environment. Remember, sexual intimacy often acts like a temperature gauge for your relationship; when one area is struggling, it reflects deeper emotional needs. Consistently nurturing emotional closeness tends to improve passion and satisfaction. For anyone feeling stuck, try making a habit of daily small gestures of love and attention alongside deeper conversations. Over time, this continuous investment builds a marriage where both partners feel seen, respected, and truly desired—leading to amazing intimacy that feels natural and fulfilling.
Cool!❤️🔥
