This to me is a complex and important topic. Thank you, UPTOWN for sharing your insights, I couldn't have penned better. I am married 20 yrs and have loads of experience with this topic. Too much in fact.
It is not so easy as to say as Averett does - just communicate. That's crucial but not always possible. Commitment in a relationship has many faces - some not obvious. For example, who's more committed to a sexy healthy relationship - the SO who "checks out" as in UPTOWN's litany yet never cheats - or the SO who looks for ways to fill the void (even if not formally cheating).
To respond to one of Sweet Pea's original questions - can one tire of sex with their SO? I hope you keep that attitude and you'll likely be blessed with a long, sexy and healthy relationship!
