How to Keep Desire Alive In Long Term Relationship
[nextpage title=”…”] A long term relationship takes work. Once the novelty of being with a new person has worn off, people have to work hard to keep the desire alive in the relationship. If you are someone who is in a long term relationship and would like to spice up your life with your partner, there is one sure way to make this happen: schedule time for romantic relations.

What This Means

We all lead busy lives that require scheduling and managing our activities. If you have children or if you both work, having relations spontaneously can be almost impossible. This is why the most successful long term relationships are made up of people who schedule romantic relations. This may not seem like the most romantic thing in the world to do, but it can make a huge difference in the way your relationship progresses. Think of it as if you are scheduling a vacation. Choose a time that both of you feel comfortable with and be willing to be flexible. If you have to reschedule, then do so without worrying.

Why it Works

Even though it is not romantic to think of scheduling relations, it actually does work for a number of reasons. For one thing, it builds anticipation. When people know when they will have romantic relations, they tend to think about it more, to plan, and to look forward to it more. They plan special things, including special outfits or even toys to enhance the experience. RELATED ARTICLE: Keeping The Romance Alive In your Relationship [/nextpage]

This technique also works for couples whose libidos are not perfectly matched. If one of you has a much more powerful libido while the other does not, trying to be intimate spontaneously can be frustrating because you have to accommodate both of your libido levels. Couples who schedule moments of closeness find the process much easier. It allows the person with the lower libido to prepare, to get “in the mood” without stress.

How to Go About It

The first thing is to find a day or night in both of your schedules that you know is available. If you have children, perhaps find some activity for them out of the house. Put aside a good amount of time to ensure that you will not feel rushed. You want to really enjoy the experience of being with your partner and this does not go well with having to rush.

Once you have both settled on the day and time, start planning for it. Many women enjoy choosing what they will wear or even buying something new and special for the occasion. If you and your partner like toys or any kind of enhancements, then why not try something new? Some couples also like the idea of role-playing to add a bit of fun to the experience. Since anticipation can make the experience an even better one, do not be shy when you start to plan for your special night.

Although scheduling relations sounds like the least $exy thing to do, it can help save long term relationships. Maintaining a relationship takes time and effort and set aside time to get down with your partner can make a world of difference in how you interact with each other on a regular basis. Schedule romantic relations with your partner and start planning for it. You will start seeing a big difference in your relationship.
