problem. It just means like accepting like this is an understanding that your libido is going to fluctuate over time. And when you're in a relationship, also acknowledging the fact that in every relationship, there's usually a high desire partner and a low desire partner.

And it's just a note to say that this is something just couples are going to have to have to learn to communicate about and recognize and first saying like, hey, I'm noticing that our, you know, our sex life is sort of changing and like, what can we, you know, what can we do together? But here's some very specific tips.

The first thing is not expecting that your desire is going to be spontaneous like it was in the beginning of the relationship. So there's different kinds of desire. There's spontaneous and there is responsive. And so we, most of us are stuck in this, like I should be hit over my head.

I should want to rip my partner's clothes off or they see me in the room and they want it all the time and I don't. So I'm, therefore I'm broken, but I want to normalize responsive desire. So spontaneous, we all know. I see my partner, I'm turned on. I get a certain touch. I see something.

Again, a lot of us live in the state of when we are the honeymoon phase of our relationship, when we do have that spontaneous all the time, it's on. That is a state of time, a limited period of time. That's usually about six months, to two years. And that's because all those feel good hormones, you know, it's like any drug, what comes up is going to come down and we might not have that anymore.
