Sexless marriage got you down? Don't feel alone -- apparently 40 million Americans are in a hands-off relationship, getting it on fewer than 10 times a year.
Here's CNN's fix just in time for Valentine's Day. So quick! Take the TV out of the bedroom. Lay off the Viagra. Up those antidepressants. Forget about your thunder thighs.
The tips:
- Make the bedroom a no-tech zone. Well, THAT kind of technology is OK. But no laptops, cellphones or Blackberrys. And no TV. Law & Order's Sam Waterston doesn't like threesomes.
- Change your meds, including birth control. They could be zapping your sex drive.
- Oh, but wait. The next tip is to take more meds. Because you're depressed. Or you have a thyroid problem. That's why you're not having sex.
- Settle down. Your hectic life is zapping your will to love in addition to your will to live.
- Quit aging -- the hormone shifts are wrecking your sex drive.
- Quit being self-conscious (because you can do that on command ...)
- Quit taking Viagra -- if you don't need it, don't use it.
- Enough of the resentments! Talk about your problems. Get it out in the open. Then take off your clothes.
Anyway, happy Valentines Day!
