When it comes to sex, many of us have been conditioned by movies and media to believe that it should be spontaneous, passionate, and both spouses should want it all the time. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth for most couples. With busy schedules, work, kids, and other responsibilities, finding the time and energy for sex can be a real challenge. This is where the idea of “scheduled sex” comes in.

At first glance, scheduling sex might sound like a strange concept. After all, isn’t sex supposed to be a natural, spontaneous expression of love and desire? But the reality is that most couples struggle to find time for intimacy amidst their busy lives. By scheduling sex, couples can create a dedicated time and space for intimacy, allowing them to build anticipation and prepare mentally and physically for sex.

For many people the concept of scheduling sex goes completely against what we are led to believe from watching the movies. In the movies, both people are ready to go at a moments notice and ALWAYS seem to be in the mood whether morning, afternoon or evening. It’s as if they have nothing better to do. Well… the movies are a fantasy and that is not what reality is for all of us people off the big screen. In real life, couples seldom are both in the mood at the same time and sex often doesn’t happen spontaneously as life is so busy with work, kids and many other things.

Scheduling sex can be an amazing thing for several reasons and after listening to this podcast, you may just find yourself scheduling sex in your relationship for better and more frequent sexual intimacy.

One of the biggest benefits of scheduling sex is that it builds anticipation. By setting aside a specific time for intimacy, couples can look forward to that time with excitement and anticipation. This anticipation can be a powerful aphrodisiac, heightening desire and making sex even more enjoyable. Additionally, scheduling sex can allow for more time and effort to be put into foreplay, leading to a more satisfying experience for both of you.

Another advantage of scheduled sex is that it often leads to better sex overall. By setting aside time to prepare mentally and physically, both spouses can be fully present and engaged during sex. This can lead to a more intimate and satisfying experience, free from distractions or other concerns.

Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of scheduling sex is that it helps resolve the issue of “when are we going to have sex?” In many relationships, one spouse may have a higher sex drive than the other, leading to frustration and resentment.

By scheduling sex, both spouses can feel more secure and confident, knowing that there is a specific time and space dedicated to intimacy. This can help to alleviate anxiety and tension in the relationship, leading to a stronger, more fulfilling connection together.

Of course, scheduling sex isn’t for everyone. Some people prefer the spontaneity and excitement of more impromptu encounters. However, for many couples, scheduling sex can be a helpful tool for maintaining intimacy and connection amidst the chaos of daily life.

Ultimately, the decision to schedule sex is a personal one that should be made between both of you. However, for couples struggling to find time for intimacy, it’s worth considering as a potential solution. By setting aside a specific time for sex, couples can build anticipation, prepare mentally and physically, and ultimately enjoy a more satisfying and fulfilling experience together.

So give scheduling sex a try and see if it has a profound impact on your relationship.
