I’m always surprised when people make jokes about sexless marriages. My wife and I have been together eight years. We’ve been married for five, we have a child, and we still have fantastic sex. The best I’ve ever had, in fact. It’s true that over time our sex has become a bit more predictable. And yes, life, work and health all take a toll. But we also know each other so much more intimately now. We’ve had a long time to learn each other’s likes and dislikes. I look at it like this: I could be having less predictable, but – let’s be honest – unsatisfying sex with someone I don’t know, or I could be having more predictable, but totally amazing sex with the woman I love. I do sometimes wish I still had the same amount of energy that I had in my early 20s, but there’s no way I’d trade that in for what I have now.
