77. The Secrets to a Great Sex Life After 19 Years of Marriage (Part 2)
In this episode, we continue our raw and honest conversation about intimacy, desire, and the challenges that arise in marriage when those wires get crossed. We dive deeper into the dynamics of how physical affection, emotional connection, and sexual desire intertwine—and what happens when expectations and realities don’t align.
We discuss:
✔️ How differing perceptions of affection and desire impact a relationship
✔️ The importance of clear communication around physical touch and emotional needs
✔️ How assumptions about affection can lead to frustration and disconnection
✔️ The role of pornography in marriages and its deeper implications beyond just a physical act
✔️ How unmet emotional needs can sometimes drive behaviors we don’t fully understand
✔️ Strategies for creating intimacy without pressure or expectations
This conversation is a continuation of our journey toward deeper connection and understanding in marriage. If you've ever felt like you and your partner were speaking different languages when it comes to intimacy, this episode is for you.
