Below are some tips on how to keep your sex life steamy for the rest of your lives.

Foreplay is not optional and should have a regular part in your sex routine, not just something you should do on special occasions. If your vagina is not properly lubricated and your vulva isn’t properly aroused, sex is not going to be fun. It might even hurt.

Don’t let sex take a back seat just because you have a million things to do. If you’ve noticed you’re not having as much sex, set up a schedule. It keeps you and your partner feeling close.

Despite what you may have heard, masturbation does have a place in long-term relationships. When you engage in self-love, you keep your nerve endings peaked, making you more likely to want partnered sex. We know, a little counterintuitive, but seriously, it works.
