I read an article a few years ago about how to strengthen your marriage and thought we should give it a try. The article says you should have sex everyday for 30 days, doesn't matter if your fighting and want to smash each others face in, you should set those issues aside and just do it, like homework, set all issues aside and get to business, you are then to cuddle for 30 minutes after. Well, we are on day 8 and there really is something to this. We feel closer than we have in years, we used to just get through the day without much physical or emotional contact, more like to roommates taking care of kids and chores. Now we will stop and hug or kiss and make playful contact and send "naughty" texts to each other. If it works this good, I think we will keep going and never miss a day.
It's not about sex per se it's about COMMUNICATION that range from a simple touch to a full blown sexual encounter. Marriage's get dull ,or loose interest, because once past the honeymoon people stop COMMUNICATING (touching) with each other. They stop caressing each other, or kissing for no reason, or just hugging. To many folk''s just touch , after the married awhile, in wham bam thank ya ma'am sex.
We've been married for 47 year and not a day goes by that I don't pinch,grab, fondle or kiss my bride so that she KNOWS I love her and she still matters to me. The fire may not be a roaring inferno but it is a warm ember of the kind that keeps a person warm all day long!
Human communication is way,way more than just words.......... Way more.

Dam ! you beat me to it . My same thoughts 48 yrs and counting. Now @70yrs I will admit I would not even dream of trying one a day but my rule is and has been you kiss in the morning and most certainly kiss good night before going to bed !. additionally as many times as possible during the day, like when she makes you breakfeat, your lunch, your snack in the afternoon, your dinner at night and especially when she says you don't have to help with the dishes! and anyother time you just want to let her know you are and will always be there for her.
Personally, sex is the best therapy I can ever get. I'm usually a totally different person the morning after. You could punch me in the face and I'll just smile at you.
This has been the best thing we have done, it turns out to be more fun, it's almost like there is less perssure, not really a presuure as in feeling pushed, it feels different, better. We are having so much fun and relaxing time, we actually can't get the kids to bed quick enough.
Good for you, OP! We're on year 12 with very few missed days, mostly for illness or separate travel. Intimacy builds and nurtures love and caring, connection and communication. Besides, it feels good!
after 37 years of sex almost every day, I can say in all honesty that YES...it works......also get a bed that is not so big that you can sleep in it without touching your partner.....even when angry at each other...when you have to touch, and you do...the anger just seems to all go away...
