After the bliss of honeymoon, and the early years of marriage most couples have to start establishing themselves in the society, building a career, parenting and buying a property. All these are wonderful and crucial, the important thing is, it would take a joint and committed effort not to allow these things to affect your intimacy.

The things listed here are great things in themselves, what you need to ensure is that the cost of all these MUST never be your closeness. You must keep growing closer as the days go by.

Intimacy is the very fuel on which your marriage runs. This will keep your relationship strong and happy. The truth is God never meant for marriages to be without fun and intimacy. As important as earning an income is, buying a house, building a career or taking care of the children, you must never forget, that without both of you, there will be no marriage, therefore it would not be very wise to go on and cater for the things your relationship produces and allow your intimacy to suffer.

God wants both of you to keep connecting emotionally all the time.
