Before my husband and I were in the typical marital rut. Having been married for about ten years, things had gone stale. While we had sex, it was more going through the motions, no real passion, no real desire. It a way, we were kind of like roommates, sharing the same house, but not having the fun we used to have.
Then, after it happened, everything changed. Sex with my husband became exciting, enjoyable and fun again. We found ourselves doing things together; dinners, movies, concerts and the like once again. It really turned a switch for the two of us and we found we loved it!
To be sure, any new adventure, sexual or otherwise, runs the risk of becoming as old and stale as the original marriage does. So we decided very early on to limit our play to about once a month or every six weeks. Some in this forum may think that's too long before play times. However, we found it perfect in that it allows us to do things together, fun things, enjoyable things. Then, when playtime does roll around, it's like an amusement park!
The excitement, the anticipation, and the aftermath all contribute to inject new life into our relationship, which is the ultimate goal. We're in this together, for the both of us and for the maintenance of our marriage. Instead of steadily drifting apart, him becoming involved in stamp collecting and my taking up knitting, we have this wonderfully exciting life to live!
By far, it's the best thing that ever happened to us, without a doubt!
