How To Keep The Love Alive In Your Marriage

Intimacy and The Five Love Languages

Relationships often struggle due to a lack of sex or a "drip of disconnection," which Jensen suggests can be addressed by understanding different needs for intimacy. He recommends Gary Chapman's "The Five Love Languages" to help partners identify what makes each other feel secure and wanted. Additionally, he advises men to avoid "fixer mode" when their partners are venting, suggesting they ask if the partner needs a listener or a solution.

Sexual Health, Communication and New Chapters

Maintaining a healthy sex life requires conscious effort and open communication, especially as couples move through different life stages like perimenopause or menopause. Jensen suggests that couples should treat their sexual relationship with curiosity, potentially using books, video courses, or visiting sex shops to "freshen up" the experience. He references past guest Steve Badansky and notes that sexual attraction for women often requires a different emotional "run-up" than for men.
