How to Stop the “He Wants Sex and She Doesn’t” Battle

Trying to Keep that Good Feeling Going? Give Up
You can't regain solid ground in your relationship after a fight. It will never happen. Not because fights ruin relationships, but because the past can never be regained. The past is over. What we can do is create and discover new ground. Today's...
“Do you have a hidden camera in my house?!”

One of the primary sex dynamics I saw between my parents growing up was my dad trying to grab my mom's butt and my mom swatting him away. I'm sure my parents didn't intend to have this be what I viewed as "how couples interact." But that's what I saw. I...

Having Needs: Desperation
Today's Installment: Desperation This one is very personal and vulnerable... here goes! When I talk with women, there are few things they DO NOT want to be seen as: needy, picky, crazy—and desperate. For many of us, the LAST thing anyone ever told us was...
Having Needs: “Trading” Needs
Next Installment: "Trading" Needs This week I'm writing about having needs, because I've been examining all the ways I'm uncomfortable having needs in my relationships. One of the most common ways I see couples handle having needs is by trading them in the...
Having Needs: Why I (Used To) Live Alone
Next Installment in Having Needs: Why I Live Alone Near the end of my marriage, I proposed at one point that we keep separate houses. I thought this was a great idea: I have my own place, MY space, that I can choose to share with you or not. I thought this...
How Comfortable are You Have Needs? Need vs Want
This week I've decided to do a series on an uncomfortable topic: HAVING NEEDS. It's a topic I am confronting in my relationship—so I thought, let's do this together. First things first: the difference between needs and wants. One of my teachers—whom I...
The 7 Warning Signs of Sexual Breakdown
Sexual breakdowns start subtly. The tiny blips on the radar that signal our partnership is veering toward bitterness, infidelity, or divorce often don’t trigger the alarm—until it’s too late. They are blips, after all. All we have to signal us to impending...

It’s the end of the day. We’re home with our partner after busy days at work. The dishwasher is quietly humming in the finally cleaned kitchen. The kids are in bed. We’re sitting on the couch about to relax, when our partner gives us "that look"—you know the one I...
Adulting.tv Interview: Everything You Learned in 7th Grade Sex Ed is Wrong
I had a blast giving an interview with Adulting.tv—and I think the hosts Miranda and Harlan did as well (based on how much they started blushing). I brought the straight talk on why everything we learned in 7th grade sex ed is out wrong, and gave advice on real topics...
Speak Up in Sex!
Unfulfilling sex is made up of a series of "skipped" moments. Distance forms and attraction freezes when we DON'T speak up during a sexual experience about those tiny little things that cross our minds: "Would you please slow down a little?" or "I want to tell you...
“I am a Woman Who Likes Sex, and My Appetite is Enormous”
Openly wanting sex as a woman is a revolutionary act. It goes against most of our conditioning around keeping a lid on our sexual expression and desire—and on the size of our appetites.

Death (and Sex) in the Air
This weekend at the Airbnb in Tahoe I found an old Agatha Christie novel, "Death in the Air." I adore her and murder mysteries in general, so I happily dug in come evening. I made it halfway thru the book by the time we were packing our bags on Monday, and for the...
Does Having MORE Sex Lead to Sexual Fulfillment?
Frequency is not a strong indicator of sexual fulfillment. In fact, I work with countless women and couples who are having lots of sex—sometimes even 5 times a week on a schedule—and feel disconnection, run ragged, and at their wits end about their sexual unhappiness....
I am a Master at Inconsistency
I am a master at inconsistency. It's probably an attribute you don't often hear lauded as beneficial. Instead, inconsistency is often apologized for, bemoaned, or judged as a problem. Not for me. I elevate inconsistency to an art form. In the world of logic and...
