A female Ireland age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I'm confused-when the honeymoon phase of a relationship ends, and the passion and sex dies down a little, what happens to those lustful feelings? Do they get directed towards other people? It worries me! Because I'd want to keep those feelings within my relationship, not lose them, or have them directed towards other people :(

This perhaps describes how to make it happen all over again. It seems to have some good tips?

If those lustful feelings are directed to other people then that is the character of the person that`s directing them, not a phase of the relationship. It means you are with an unfaithful partner.

Abella agony auntActually you get better after the initial passion. You learn more empathy and more consideration for the other party. You deepen the intimacy if the relationship is already on a firm strong foundation of good respect and love and the intimacy becomes deeper and stronger.

You just need to work at it.

Talking

respecting

listening

caring

showing empathy.

Trust me, real life is far more beautiful than just the honeymoon stage.

My best wishes to you for yor life ahead

By the way I also refer to the honeymoon stage as referring to something entirely different (but that does not apply to you as you are in a loving relationship, not an abusive one)
