What matters is how you manage the changes.
I read this post on Instagram, and I would like to share it with you.
“When we first got married, the chemistry was electric.
We couldn't keep our hands off each other. The passion was so strong.
But two years later—with work stress piling up, a baby waking them up every three hours, and exhaustion settling into our bones—things changed.

My husband still wanted intimacy, often. I, on the other hand, felt distant from my own body. I didn’t know how to explain it, so I said nothing.
My husband noticed it and gave me space.
So, the silence between us grew louder.
He began to wonder, “Is she not attracted to me any more?”
I was afraid also, I asked myself several questions like, “Is something wrong with me?”
One night, instead of turning his back in frustration, he did something different.
He reached for my hand and said,
“I miss us. Not just sex—us. Can we talk about it?”
That conversation changed everything.
We opened up. I explained how overwhelmed I felt.
He admitted how rejected he had begun to feel.
And together, we realized—it wasn’t about desire disappearing, it was about connection needing attention.
We started small. Talking more, holding each other again, laughing, flirting.
And slowly, the desire found its way back—not because we forced it, but because we faced it together.”
The Truth is, sexual desire in marriage isn’t a straight line.
It changes, it dips, it resurfaces.
Life will always bring seasons where one person wants more or less.
The key is learning to talk, not fight. To listen, not assume.
Remember, love isn’t proven by how often you touch—it’s by how often you make real effort to connect with one another.
Dear couple, if things feel different now that you’re married, don’t panic. You’re not broken. You’re growing. Desire isn’t constant—but connection can be.
Talk, laugh, touch, and be patient. And don’t be afraid to seek help if needed.
Because in marriage, the goal isn’t perfect passion—it’s honest partnership.
