[quote=Anonymous][quote]In retrospect, I was too understanding about the drop off in sex when the kids were little. I didn't push the issue because I thought it was just a phase. It wasn't until about 8 years later, when our youngest was in school full time, that it became clear that our sex life wasn't going to bounce back. I tried making it priority then, but it was too late. Our sex life is never coming back.[/quote] This is us. Exactly. If I could change anything, I would have re-raised this issue. We did discuss it, but it was always a stalemate. So we let it slide, from 1x a week, to 2x a month. Now it's been 4x in last year. And it's just awkward. We are like platonic roommates who have grown apart. I can see the logic of affairs, or eventually divorce. My strong advice to younger couples who don't want to be like us: just do it. Carve out 30 minutes a week. It will NOT magically come back unless you make it a priority, even when you don't want it to be.[/quote]
