Dear Coleen
My partner and I, parents to an 18-month-old child, feel that the demands of parenthood have significantly impacted our relationship, particularly in the intimacy department.
Due to our busy schedules, we have not engaged in sexual activity lately, leading to a sense of awkwardness and difficulty in discussing the topic. Fortunately, my partner’s parents have graciously offered to look after our child for a weekend, providing us with a rare opportunity for some alone time. I am eagerly anticipating this break.
Despite my excitement, I also feel apprehensive as this getaway will eliminate our usual distractions, leaving us alone with our thoughts and emotions.
The pressure to engage in intimacy and ensure a perfect experience in this setting concerns me.
We have not discussed our expectations for the weekend beyond the simple pleasure of sleeping in without interruptions.
I believe both of us are experiencing some nervousness, yet we are grateful for the chance to rejuvenate our spirits.
Do you have any suggestions on how we can rekindle our connection during this weekend retreat? I recognize the significance of this occasion for our relationship.
Coleen advises
It would be beneficial for you both to relax and enjoy each other’s company without overthinking it. Let the moment guide you – you may feel an immediate surge of passion upon entering your accommodation, or you might simply crash into bed and sleep for an extended period.
Embrace the experience as it unfolds; release any preconceived notions and pressure, focusing instead on unwinding and taking a well-deserved break. Perhaps you’ll find an opportune moment to discuss your relationship, but let it occur naturally.
Relaxed settings often facilitate deeper conversations without typical distractions, allowing for meaningful interactions.
If you concentrate on anything, prioritize enjoying each other’s company, laughter, and the freedom to eat and rest at your leisure.
When you are genuinely having fun and connecting, physical intimacy may naturally follow. Remember, if it doesn’t, do not dwell on it. Reconnecting and enhancing intimacy during this weekend could pave the way for reviving your sexual relationship.
