Making time for sex

On the back of the other thread about how often people have sex, I'm intrigued to know when other people make time for it.

I'll be the first to admit i need to make more of an effort.

I'm up between 5.30-6.30am depending on my day, work all day, have 2 small kids in the evenings, so by the time I'm going to bed at 9.30-10pm I just want to sleep.

The weekends don't feel much more relaxing either as my son is an early riser.

You need to find the time. Can you ask grandparents to have the kids for a night on a weekend? Go to bed at 9pm instead of 9.30/10 and instigate some physical intimacy?

Relationships need sexual contact to thrive, it's as important as every other aspect of daily living activities. Not something to neglect or people tend to get bored and that's when problems arise. I'm not saying force yourself, obviously, but if every other part of your relationship is good then invest in making this bit good too.
