A user’s guide to a good sex life in couplehood; deals with the sexual problems that may arise in couplehood and how to prevent or surmount them.

Most of us want to find someone to share life with. Someone to love until death us do part. But sometimes it is no easy matter. It may be difficult to develop a good sex life and keep the fire burning throughout married life.

This book is about the most frequent reasons why the partners’ sexual desire may disappear, including pregnancy, child-minding and house work, stress, a lack of intimacy, different needs and unfulfilled expectations, and offers proposals for tackling the problems and thus developing a sex life that is satisfactory for both partners.
