POP 46 - When You Or Your Spouse Doesn’t Like Sex - Part 3

Through sexual intimacy married couples are intended to experience deep and profound relational values such as intimacy, connection, union, trust, caring, and love. In view of this wonderful gift... and these wonderful benefits... you'd think every married person would anticipate... desire... and fully enjoy the pleasures and ecstasy of sexual connection with their spouse on a regular basis. Yet many people... both men and women... struggle deeply with significantly diminished sexual desire or interest... and often do everything they can do to avoid... or at least limit... sexual contact with their spouse.  As you can only imagine, this lack of sexual interest and avoidance often leads to significant tension, confusion, misunderstanding, and hurt in the context of the marriage... especially if the other spouse has sexual desire and interest.
