    Dr. Sheri's FREE Report Fun, Sexy, and Essential Passion-Boosting Tips for a Hotter, Sweeter, and More Fulfilling Relationship By: Sheri Meyers, Psy.D. Author: Chatting or Cheating: How to Detect Infidelity, Rebuild Love, and Affair-Proof Your Relationship A gift from my heart to yours www.DrSheri.com Dr. Sheri Meyers © 2013. All Rights Reserved. www.drsheri.com 1 Here's A Simple Truth: A relationship is what two people put into it. It used to be so easy. We were hot. We were interested. We couldn't wait to jump into bed! Why is it so hard now to even find time to make out? I love my partner, but I'm just not feeling 'it' anymore. Can you relate? You're not alone. One of the most popular questions couples ask me is, "How do you keep the passion alive after 5, 10, 20 years together?" Even monogamous couples together for a year or two have been known to complain, there are no fireworks anymore! Usually, the number one challenge for most partners in long-term relationships is learning how to maintain the balance between intimacy and the demands of everyday life. Work, kids, projects, errands, bills, worries are just a few of the many distractions that can fizzle the sizzle of romantic, passionate love. Too many distractions. Too many pulls. Too little time. Something's gotta give. Dr. Sheri Meyers © 2013. All Rights Reserved. www.drsheri.com 2 Many of us can remember the early days of love, when our powerful emotions and surging hormones naturally drove us to be closer and more intimate with our partner.
