Me being me, it's no surprise that a friend told me about the One Extraordinary Marriage "7 Day Sex Challenge", and encouraged me to "read", "research" and "share" my thoughts. Tony and Alisa Dilorenzo, speak about how when it comes to sex, life gets in the way. HMMMM.... been there, wrote about that numerous times here at the lounge. They are promoting the "7 Day Sex Challenge" to improve your marriage. Do note, they have a spiritual side to the challenge and include prayer. I will say prayer always has a place in marriage and partnership, and never underestimate the power of a praying wife. Trick is to make sure she's praying for your good being and not your demise. Or vise versa. But that's a whole other blog. Like me, the Dilorenzos, encourage you to shake things up and think out of the typical bedroom box. Consider what is stated in Rebooting in the Bedroom - do what you can and must too prevent your sex life from getting boring. For ideas read, The Hot List. WOW, I really am not alone in this, LOL! (Hush, Tony Walker - I know you'll be all over this!) In fact, Fox News was all over it. (Note to self - get the DRL editors to get a press release out to Fox News. my articles are right along the same lines as the Delorenzo's, HA!)
The point of being necessary for continuation of the species aside. Sex is an important part of life. Yet, all too often it is NOT a priority in your relationship. Why not? WHY THE HELL NOT? What's so complicated?! It makes for a happy lover. It really makes for a happy man! It also makes for a good time, (At least if you do it right!), good relationship, good mood, good endorphins, good health, good sleep, good stress relief, good cardio... the list goes on and on. The "no time", "no energy" thing - is true at times, but it is often truer that it is a cop out. If something is important to you - you make it a priority. Why then, if relationship is important do so many long term partners allow the sex side of it to get lost?
