The last time my husband and I had sex was just over a year ago. The feeling of closeness was lovely, and afterwards, I remember saying, "We should do this more often." Steven* agreed. But days, weeks, months have slipped by since, and it hasn’t happened again. It’s now been over a year. However, neither of us is too concerned that sex is no longer part of our marriage.
Life is often portrayed as revolving around sex – movies and TV shows are full of steamy bedroom scenes, and there’s a huge societal focus on couples having better sex. But for me, while a satisfying love life is a beautiful thing, it has never been top of the agenda when it comes to making a relationship work.
