Best of Sex, Love, & Elephants: STOP Treating Your Mate Like a Roommate—Summer of Love Part 6

“Dr. Cheryl… I feel like my wife and I are more friends and roommates than lovers. How can we bring sexy back?”  “Why do men only care about sex and not romance?” “What are some great date ideas to reconnect with my partner?” Today’s Sex, Love, and Elephants is part of a series of my all-time favorite couples Q&A episodes that I did a few summers ago. In it, I’m busting the myth that men don’t care about romance and telling you why dates are one of the most exciting parts of dating. I also teach you why the thrill of the chase is so important evolutionarily, why we have to learn to make time alone with one another, and why it’s so easy to fall into a pattern of relationship complacency. Tune in and hear what I’ve learned from my decades of work with couples just like you. Are you ready to reconnect with your honey? To create love and passion that last a lifetime?
