My husband is a diesel mechanic and he works really hard and when he gets home he’s all dirty and nasty. We have a huge bathtub so every night I always have it fill so he can soak and relax. He has no sex drive anymore. Is this a stage a man goes through. I do know for a fact he is not cheating on me. How can I get him sexually active again without the use of medicines?
Being in a bad relationship is a tough thing to do. Nothing is worse than being married and lonely at the same time. If you think the best way to save your relationship is to ‘spice up your sex life’ you may want to think again. Here is some advice on sex to repair your relationship.
First of all don’t buy into the old cliche that if you have great sex your partner will be satisfied and not leave. Unless your partner is an adolescent, or just acts like one, sex alone won’t be enough to keep your relationship strong. A good adult relationship is made up of many components and until you can get it clicking on at least several levels, not just sexual, you will struggle and most likely won’t be happy in the relationship.
A word of caution though, no one is perfect and no relationship is perfect. You will have times when you and your partner are not on the same page, and that’s ok. It’s more about balance, in your relationship as a whole you should be on the same page more often than not. If it’s balanced the other way, where you are at odds more often than you are in sync you should seriously consider ending the relationship because the two of you just aren’t a good fit, and that’s unlikely to change.
So before you decide that hotter sex is the key to making your relationship what you really want it to be, consider some of these points:
1. How was your relationship in the beginning? Did you have a lot of hobbies that you shared together? What did you do, besides sex, when you spent time together? If you don’t do those things together anymore, why not? If you analyze these changes in your relationship you will be a lot closer to figuring out what you need to work on to make your relationship strong again.
2. Have you asked your partner what they think is going on with your relationship? After all you’re both part of the situation, and the problem. Why not share with each other what you are feeling, instead of complaining to your girlfriends, or buddies, why not ask your partner? No one will know what they are thinking better than they do.
Make sure that when you ask your partner what they’re thinking you give them the opportunity to tell you how they feel in a ‘safe’ environment. What I mean by that is don’t get mad and yell at them if they say something you don’t want to hear. If you do then you are sending them a signal that they can’t open up to you or it will get ugly, so they won’t turn to you. That is the beginning of the end for many relationships.
Once they’ve told you how they feel, it’s your turn. And the same rules apply. You have the right to express your feelings without being persecuted by your partner.
If you and your partner have reached a rough patch in your relationship it can be tempting to think that if you can reignite a fire in bed you’ll be able to save your relationship, unfortunately that’s simply not the case. Use the advice on sex to repair your relationship tips I’ve given you above to start to rebuild your relationship in a healthy way.

I took my girlfriend for granted and she left me. Can anyone please give me some decent advice on how I can get her back? Long story short, I ignored the signs that my girlfriend was starving for attention, I really didn’t know it until it was too late, now I see what I was doing and I feel terrible.
She really doesn’t even know how much I loved her because I never really expressed it, saying “I love you” just isn’t enough sometimes… She left me and said she needed space, I know the real reason, but she never explained it. I tried to talk it out but she didnt want to hear it, wouldn’t return my call and was actually kind of nasty. She said she would return my stuff on my porch in 3 days and its been nearly 12 days. Since she still has my things, is that a good sign? Just so you know, me and that girl got along amazingly, we rarely fought, and had a great sex life…
Should I call or text her, or should I wait it out and hope she contacts me first? Is there a way I can show her I love her, but not look too desperate to get her back? I have already purchased “the magic of making up” and “the ex2 system”, I am just looking for advice on my particular situation.

We were dating for around 7 months and everything was going great! sex was good, we communicated great, and we just made each other happy! Than one day when i was texting her she tells me that she has a class with her ex boyfriend, her most serious relationship before she met me. than while talking a few days later she breaks up with me.. out of no where!! i didnt even see it coming. apparently this guy told her that he still loves her and how sorry he was for cheating on her. so whether or not they will get back together i dont know, but im guessing they are if she could just leave me like that.. any advice to get her back!!?? its been a week and im going crazy!
I mean i know im only in grade 12, but i honestly thought this was the girl i could marry! she keeps telling me that she still loves me and cares for me, but she needs to get her head straight or some BS.. anyways if u could give me some words of advice that would be great!!!

I will try to make this a brief as possible. I love my wife, we are currently going through the worse part of our marriage now. I myself am able to distinguish lust from emotion, my wife not so lucky she is quite the opposite. She gets attached, recently she expressed the urge to kiss a lesbian. Me being the swinger ideal guy allows it with hopes of possibly seeing where it may spice our already great sex live up.
Fast forward a long talk and quite a few tears she has feeling strong feelings for this woman. She wishes to be with her, I feel powerless, I wish for her to be happy even at the cost of my own happiness. Yet I took an oath to stand by her no matter what. Lately I have become restless with the thoughts of my other self seeing the bad before the good. I am incapable of channeling my love to her, she wants to love again yet she is unable too.
I ask you the internet dwellers: Is there anything I can do to show her how much I wish for her to be madly in love me with me again?
No kids on an insanely awesome little Bull Terrier. The funny thing is, I exceed over everything the lesbian is. I have been there when she was crying, holding her telling her it will be alright we can get through it. Example: Out of the 10 times she has needed the new woman she has been able to talk twice! All 10 time I have been there. She begged her to come over and help solve this she refused.
I know swinging can open a can of worms. I am seeing now not all of us can turn that lust switch off and cut ties to emotions. It was a big mistake I am paying for now. I full fill her needs I offer massages, to cook dinner, go to movies, open the door still, kiss her head, rub her feet when shes cold, tell her I love her many times a day.
She does still speak to her, I know she may need to cut ties and only she can do that. It doesn’t help she feel inadequate for such a great guy as myself she has constantly said she doesn’t deserve my kindness, and I deserve better.
I have read notes, I have read cards, I am at the point where I feel I am fighting a lost cause. She is seeking help it just feel like this is going to drag out and I do not wish for that. She is quite indecisive which makes it worse. There is nothing more painful than seeing the one you love and hold over all others not love you back. She barely knows this woman yet holds her in such high regards, even over her own husband.
She, and even her mom do not know why I stay by her in this darkest time. I do, My oath to her, our family, our friends, and to God. I am just having such a hard time keeping positive. I thank you for all your answers thus far please keep them coming.
I have given her my all, every fiber of my being, every time I even thought of her I texted her, telling her I love you. Deep down we all have two sides, a light and a dark. My dark tells my light it has lost her and to move on make the choice for her & be done with it get on to the healing and the bitches. The few years invested can be re-couped.
Even if I feel it is slightly true, I still am bound by the honor of my word to stay with her till the bitter end. I will continue to strive to show her I care, I love, I wish to have her by my side. I will continue to support her in her seeking help, I would even attend sessions with her if she asked. I will because I love her. I wish nothing but the best for her be it with me or without i am her friend before all, I seek to see her happy, that is why I stay.
To show her I am there for her, to show her I stand by her side even in the face of such a monstrous task ahead of us. To pick her up when she has fallen and carry her on my back.
