You&#8217;re in love. You&#8217;re horny. You can&#8217;t get enough of one another. You sacrifice sleep for a night of passionate lovemaking. But the honeymoon never lasts too long.<\/p>\n<p>After some time, the excitement wears off. As your relationship stabilizes, reality kicks in. The stress and demands of daily life win out over the need to connect on an erotic level.<\/p>\n<p>No wonder most couples seeking sexual counseling complain about low desire. Some end up living in a sexless marriage or relationship and want to get the spark back. But is it possible?<\/p>\n<p>Researchers have identified several factors that protect desire in long-term relationships. And novelty plays a huge role in keeping the flame alive.<\/p>\n<h3>Study of Sexual Desire in Long-Term Couples<\/h3>\n<p>In 2018, scientists from the University of Kentucky <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/00224499.2018.1437592?journalCode=hjsr20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">analyzed\u00a0<\/a>64 peer-reviewed articles about sexual desire in long-term relationships. They wanted to understand the factors contributing to sexual flow in couples.<\/p>\n<p>They came up with a conceptual model for maintaining desire in long-term relationships. It&#8217;s important to understand that their proposition has certain limitations. The conclusions refer mostly to male-female couples; the study team was able to find only three studies that considered same-sex partnerships.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fil fr-dib\" style=\"width: 900px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediashower.com\/img\/9E6134E0-EE1E-11EB-8349-012624BCE0C1\/AD3CF2~1_900x.jpg\" alt=\"Studies focused on heterosexual couples\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Studies focused on heterosexual couples<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, study participants lived in monogamous relationships, so we have no way of knowing how desire evolves in open partnerships.<\/p>\n<p>That said, here are some of the most common desire killers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Erotic monotony.\u00a0<\/strong>If we stick to the same stimuli, if we don&#8217;t change anything in our sexual rituals and practices, they will inevitably get boring.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lack of erotic stimulation.\u00a0<\/strong>When we are young and in love, we don&#8217;t need much encouragement to get in the mood. After ten years together, it&#8217;s a different story. Desire dies if we don&#8217;t make a conscious effort to keep it alive. A sexual atmosphere is something we need to create daily.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overfamiliarity with a partner.\u00a0<\/strong>Let&#8217;s face it. Living under one roof with the same person means the loss of mystery. Before you know it, one of you forgets to close the bathroom door when clipping their nails or (worse) taking a quick pee. Knowing everything about your partner is great in all aspects of the relationship except for sex. Desire thrives on the unknown.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fil fr-dib\" style=\"width: 900px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediashower.com\/img\/9E6134E0-EE1E-11EB-8349-012624BCE0C1\/AD9950~1_900x.jpg\" alt=\"Couples who live together are at risk of overfamiliarity\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Couples who live together are at risk of overfamiliarity<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Novelty is Key to Happy Sex Life<\/h3>\n<p>Understanding why libido levels drop in long-term couples is one thing. Answering the question &#8220;how to keep desire alive&#8221; is another. The literature review revealed several factors that helped couples keep the sexual flame burning. Researchers identified three levels to our desire:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Individual<\/li>\n<li>Interpersonal<\/li>\n<li>Societal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One of their most interesting findings concerned the importance of novelty in long-term relationships. The idea was described within the broader definition of self-expansion.<\/p>\n<p>The concept was defined by E.N. and A. Aron in a 1986 <a href=\"https:\/\/psycnet.apa.org\/record\/1986-98255-000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">book\u00a0<\/a>&#8220;Love and the Expansion of Self: Understanding Attraction and Satisfaction.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Self-expansion means &#8220;including the other in the self and engaging in opportunities for growth.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As researchers began to examine the impact of self-expansion on desire, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/full\/10.1080\/14681994.2014.957498?scroll=top&amp;needAccess=tru\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">they learned\u00a0<\/a>that breaking routine and continuously exposing yourself to new, positive experiences helped nurture interest in sex.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fil fr-dib\" style=\"width: 900px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediashower.com\/img\/9E6134E0-EE1E-11EB-8349-012624BCE0C1\/ADFE22~1_900x.jpg\" alt=\"Breaking routine helps couples keep desire alive\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Breaking routine helps couples keep desire alive<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what sexual novelty could look like in your relationship:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Build up anticipation for sex.\u00a0<\/strong>Many studies point out that desire likes anticipation. Contrary to popular belief, planning for intimacy does not kill libido. When you know that you have a hot date scheduled in your calendar, you will think about it, and your arousal will grow. To boost erotic appetites, you may exchange sexy letters or text messages during the day.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Experiment with sexual practices and accessories.\u00a0<\/strong>Women&#8217;s magazines are filled with techniques and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/erectile-dysfunction\/sex-toys-and-erectile-dysfunction-can-they-help\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sex toy<\/a> recommendations to &#8220;spice up your sex life&#8221; for a reason.
