Episode 4: Talking about sex and intimacy
Is it possible to rekindle desire within a long-term relationship?
How do you talk about sex within your relationship? Do you have a vernacular when it comes to intimacy? Lots of people carry with them desires and intimacies which they find very difficult to give voice to. In this podcast, we discuss how important it is to maintain physical and emotional contact and openness.
We ask how important touch is within a relationship and whether it can be the gateway to better intimacy. For many older people, it can be problematic to rekindle that flame that used to burn. After a long time together many find it difficult to talk about sex and intimacy.
The lesson we have both learned is that it is never too late, either to find someone who is more in tune with you sexually or to relight the fire under an old relationship. The secret is to mean it and to want it.
