Instead of bottling up your anger or suppressing your sexuality, it's always healthier to talk it out. On top of that, by sharing sexual experiences together, you're giving your marriage and your partner an outlet for adult play and discovery.2) Keep up with your own interestsEspecially when you have been together for a long time, it can be tempting to turn off that part of you and just be friends. But friends without benefits can end up putting an unhealthy amount of pressure on the relationship and be disappointing to one or both of you. Plus, infusing a more physical dynamic to your repetoir will add versatility and fun to your time together.3) Practice Open CommunicationInstead of counting on your significant other's mind-reading capabilities, try telling them directly what you want and need. While this might feel a bit awkward at first, practice makes perfect. On top of that, communicating your expectations will encourage your partner to do the same, especially when it comes to what you want in the bedroom.Want to be friends?
