The Case for Scheduling Intimacy
Between responsibilities, fatigue, kids, work stress, and the emotional weight of sharing a life with someone year after year, desire doesn't always show up on its own. And when it doesn't, many couples quietly conclude that something must be wrong, which only widens the distance between them. Long-term love doesn't run on chemistry alone. It needs attention, intention, and an active choice to keep showing up for each other. Which is why something as simple and often misunderstood as scheduling intimacy dates can be genuinely transformative.
