Did you know? In one study, 70% of women said stress was their #1 libido killer — not hormones.
Stress activates the nervous system in ways that make desire harder to access. For therapists, this highlights why working on regulation and boundaries can transform a couple’s s*x life more than focusing on “technique.”

One of the most common things I hear from people who have lost s*xual desire in their relationships is that they felt resentment. Sometimes it's specific: resentment that their partner doesn't help with the kids, so they're too exhausted for s*x. Sometimes it's broader: resentment that their needs aren't heard, that they're not really seen, that the relationship feels one-sided. Couples who address the resentment instead of ignoring it and hoping s*x will fix it, often find that the s*x naturally returns once the underlying issues are addressed

Love and desire don't behave the same way.

Love shrinks distance. Desire is energized by it. Couples who expect both to follow the same trajectory get blindsided when the relationship deepens and the eroticism narrows.
