I hear a lot of people talk about getting back to the way things were in the past — passionate and sexy. But, what if there isn’t necessarily something to get “back” to because it wasn’t there in the first place? Can a marriage last if everything else is fantastic, but has no sexual chemistry? Or […]
Dear Dr. Jane, I’m married to a wonderful person who uses the pronouns they/them. Our sex life is pretty good. Even though we only do it every few weeks, we both experience pleasure. When we’re done, we wonder why we don’t do it more. My problem is that they never initiate. A few days later, […]
Dear Dr Jane, I’ve been married to my wife for over 10 years. In many ways, we have a healthy sex life. We do it twice a week and she’s pretty open when I ask. Even though we do a lot, I’m bored. It’s the New Year and I want to make changes. We only […]
Dear Dr. Jane, I don’t know about other people, but this year has been very challenging for me and my partner. Now it’s the holidays and we’re both stressed out. Making love is the last thing on our LONG list of things to do, but I don’t want us to get to 2023 and feel […]
Dear Dr. Jane, I‘m a man who’s been married to a wonderful woman for over 10 years. We have a healthy sex life, but I’ve noticed that my wife isn’t very passionate when we make love. It seems like she wants me to hurry up and finish. This makes me think that she doesn’t really […]
Dear Dr. Jane, My wife and I had a baby girl four months ago and our sex life has been off track ever since. I know it takes time for a woman to feel good postpartum, but our doctor said we could have sex after six weeks. We’ve only had sex once and it was terrible. I’m […]
Dear Dr. Jane, My wife has some severe hangups about touching herself, me touching her, and generally anything that isn’t traditional intercourse. Unsurprisingly, she’s never had an orgasm. We talked about it one night last week in our tent when we were camping at Elk Lake. For the first time in our relationship, she told […]
We’ve been married for over 10 years and we’re best friends. But these days, I can’t get my partner to give me any touch at all. Dear Dr. Jane, My relationship has been hanging by a thread for quite a while now, but these days I’m almost ready to call it quits. We’ve been married for […]
Dear Dr. Jane, My wife and I have had problems with intimacy for years. The last time we had sex was early in 2021. I know that we need to have “The Talk” but I have no idea how to bring up the topic of intimacy without making things even more awkward between us. I […]
Dear Dr. Jane, My wife and I have had problems with intimacy for years. At this point, we’re pretty much sexless. I think the last time we made love was before Thanksgiving. What do you think about us opening our marriage to fix the sex problem? She really doesn’t want anything to do with me sexually, […]
