I'm hearing a lot of people saying that stress is a major libido killer. Strangely enough, sex is one of the best ways of dealing with stress there is.
I hope shesus doesn't mind me saying this....but we started getting into a rut after a few years together. The sex was happening the same time of day, the same positions, the same motions, etc. We both knew it was happening but neither of us really discussed it. There would be times we would go 2 weeks without any sexual contact. Finally, we both agreed that we were becoming vanilla in our sex life and that things wouldn't get any better if we didn't make a conscious effort to change it. We decided that being entirely honest with each other about our sexuality and who we were sexually was the best way to go about it.
Since then, if we go even 3 days without sex, it seems like an eternity. Not only that, but the sex is amazing. It's even better now than it was during that first year.
As far as dealing with stress and how it affects one's sex life, we've found that eating better, getting more rest, and becoming more active in our lives helped out a lot as well. Those things also had the added benefit of making us more physically atrractive to each other.
Best of luck with your situation, miko. I hope everything works out.
