Amit and Sonia used to only think about intimacy at night. After Amit started sending playful flirty texts and complimenting Sonia’s looks, dresses and intelligence, he was surprise to find that Sonia is more eager to connect by evening.
Getting in the right mood for intimacy doesn’t have to start when you get into bed. You can build anticipation throughout the day by flirting with your wife, sending a sweet text message, or giving her a compliment. Creating this buildup increases excitement and desire.
Tip: Flirt with your wife during the day—send a sweet text, compliment her, or express affection to increase excitement for intimacy later. Create Excitement During the Day.
Deepak and his wife noticed that they often waited until the very end of the night to initiate sex, by which time they were both too tired. They started shifting intimate moments to earlier in the evening when they still had energy, which led to a more active sex life.
If you are in a long-term relationship, you probably leave sex until the very end of the night, when you are both crawling into the bed. This is the worst time to try to have sex, because you are both already exhausted and anytime you spend having sex cut into the precious few hours you have left for sleep. Don’t initiate intimacy at the end of a long, exhausting day, which can result in less energy and lower desire. Timing your intimate moments for when you’re both energized can make all the difference.
• Tip: Don’t wait until you’re both about to fall asleep. Start setting aside time for intimacy earlier in the evening when you’re both relaxed but still energized. Initiate Intimacy Earlier in the Evening

Instead of focusing on your devices, focus on each other.
• Tip: Set a rule to leave phones and other distractions outside the bedroom. Use that time to connect with your wife emotionally and physically. Keep Phones and Devices Out of the Bedroom

Once he made a conscious effort to stop thinking about work and focus on his wife, he noticed that their relationship became more fulfilling and intimate.

To his surprise, these simple adjustments significantly improved their connection and intimacy.

Sunil was always self-conscious about his thin frame and lack of muscles, feeling that he didn’t have the looks to match his wife’s admiration for actors like Hritik Roshan.

After speaking with a doctor at LuvoMen, Sunil realized that it wasn’t Hritik Roshan’s physique his wife desired—it was him, his affection, and their connection. As a result, his sexual life improved.
Your body doesn’t need to look perfect all the time, especially after a long, exhausting day. Don’t fear that your wife’s desire is based only on your appearance. You shouldn’t feel that making an effort to feel attractive means something is wrong in your relationship. Many people have unrealistic expectations of how other people’s sex drive work.
Tip: Confidence in how you look plays a big role in intimacy. Feeling good about yourself, regardless of body type or appearance, can make a huge difference in your connection with your partner. Embrace who you are, and your partner will appreciate your self-assurance and presence. Remember, confidence is often more attractive than physical appearance alone

Vivek and his wife had been together for several years, and he noticed that their desire for sex didn’t always align. He often felt frustrated when his advances were turned down, thinking that the lack of desire was a problem in their relationship. After talking to a LuvoMen expert, Vivek learned that the initiation and timing of intimacy is as important as desire itself. He realized that being in sync with his wife’s feelings and creating the right mood made a big difference in their connection.
You might be surprised to learn that how often you feel the desire for sex isn’t the most important factor in maintaining an active sex life. It’s more about how well you and your partner navigate initiating sex and understanding each other’s readiness. This process, deciding whether to say yes or no is called the “consideration process,” and it requires both partners to respect each other’s boundaries. Gently turning each other down, when needed, can still lead to a healthy sexual connection, and respecting each other’s wishes is key to building intimacy.
