This is the most accurate feeling I am having now haha.

Effort?

Takes effort from both to keep things fresh.

Try doing things totally out of the norm for you two and make an effort to break up the routine.

There is life after Sex. Get a hobby. Expand your horizons and you will expand your mind. Sex all the time is too one dimensional.

QFT. as crude as it may sound, from what ive heard, they work.

for many couples, it does help, but just the simple thought of finding new ways to arouse the other person. and more importantly not just because you feel it is your job because you are married/together but because you want to.
Also, i think that a lot of time, sex needs to not be in the equation AS much as it was in the begining. Sex is always important and special, but if you find other ways to arouse each other outside of the bedroom and in other ways, it will help the whole of the relationship.
