Sex is also a healer

When a couple is first married, sex is usually frequent. There is very little discussion about lack of time, headaches and fatigue. It is a time of discovery and passion. Sex is not confined to the bedroom, but a possibility anywhere and anytime.
As the years go by, this has a tendency to change. Children are born. Responsibilities increase. There are more bills to pay and more money to be made. Fatigue definitely comes into play. The couple may be just as much in love with one another, but their life together has settled into a routine that is comfortable, but not necessarily exciting.Days or even weeks can go by without any physical intimacy. This can result in an emotional distance between the couple. The reason for this is because sex is more than just a physical release. Sex is a spiritual, emotional connection between a husband and a wife. It is the one time when a couple is truly bonded together in an intimate way, sharing an experience that nobody else can share with them. It is their time to connect and bond together.

Sex is also a healer. Amanda and her husband, Jeff had a tendency to get in arguments and say things to one another that they would later regret. Since both of them were stubborn, it was rare that either one would be the first to apologize. One day Jeff approached Amanda after an argument. Without saying a word, he took her hand and started leading her to the bedroom. Amanda’s initial reaction was to try and pull away, but when he looked into her eyes she saw something in them that reflected something more than anger. She saw love and desire.What followed was a particularly passionate, tender lovemaking session. Neither one of them ever spoke of their argument again. As a matter of fact, neither one of them could even remember what they had been arguing about in the first place. The simple act of lovemaking had healed their wounds

.Amanda and Jeff learned a very powerful secret. The more they felt like turning away from one another, the more they needed to turn toward one another and let that intimate coming together take place.The power of sex in a relationship should never be underestimated. It is often one of the first things to go in a marriage. Very few couples seem to realize the power it has. It colors everything else about a couple’s relationship.
