The Secret to Good Sex in Marriage

how to have good sex

Make the time

Sex is like anything else in life: You've got to spend the time to make it good. So while you've read this piece of incredible wisdom over and over, for the sex-goddess-in-training, it bears repeating: Make occasional dates with your husband. "I can't emphasize enough the importance of dating in long-term relationships," says Sydney Biddle Barrows, author of Just Between Us Girls: Secrets About Men From the Madam Who Knows. "Ideally, the two of you should have one night a week all to yourselves, where you can have four to six hours just to think about each other. The ground rules: You can talk about anything or do anything, as long as it doesn't involve your day-to-day life." Do this even if blocking out the time alone feels forced. You'll have more fun than you think.
