If your bedroom has gone quiet and you’ve started to feel more like roommates than partners, you’re not broken and you’re not the only one. Sex therapist Dr. Holly Richmond explains why the real problem is almost never how often you have sex, how “duty sex” quietly builds resentment, and the first steps couples take to start wanting each other again. Take Dr. Diane’s free Sex Code Language quiz at mylibidodoc.com/libido-code to learn what turns each of you on and off, and where you’ve been missing each other.
You used to want each other, and now you pass in the hallway like roommates, both too nervous to be the one who brings it up. Sex therapist Dr. Holly Richmond explains why the spark fades for nearly every couple after the first year or so, and the four everyday habits that bring it back, including a gentle way to say “this isn’t working for me” without starting a fight. Ready to break the silence tonight? Grab the free Yes, No, Maybe Checklist at mylibidodoc.com/yesnomaybe and use it as your first low-pressure conversation starter.
You love your spouse and nothing terrible ever happened to you, yet the moment things turn physical, something in you tightens up and pulls away, and you can’t explain why. Sex therapist Brooke Bralove explains how small childhood hurts, like being belittled or rejected, stay stored in your body as shame, why trying to look perfect quietly shuts sex down, and how couples can rebuild closeness even after betrayal. If you’re not sure what’s really behind your own shutdown, take Dr. Diane’s free quiz, Why Is My Desire Low?, at mylibidodoc.com/libido-quiz. This is the second half of my conversation with Brooke Bralove. Catch Part 1, “Privacy or Secrecy? What I’m Not Telling My Spouse,” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GjV5VKA-dY
You've started keeping things to yourself, like what you search late at night and what you wish you could say out loud, and you can't tell anymore whether that's privacy or a secret slowly pulling you two apart. Dr. Diane and a certified sex therapist give you two simple questions that separate healthy privacy from harmful secrecy. They also explain why wanting sex at different levels is normal, and why putting sex on the calendar can bring the wanting back instead of killing it. If you're not sure why things went quiet in your bedroom, take Dr. Diane's free "Why Is My Desire Low?" quiz at mylibidodoc.com/libido-quiz. It sorts out what's physical, what's emotional, and where to start.
If you've been waiting for the "right moment" to feel like lovers again instead of roommates, and it never seems to come, you're not broken, and you're not alone. In Part 2, Dr. Diane and Caroline Hood get practical: why spontaneity is mostly a myth (even early on), how scheduling sex builds anticipation instead of killing the mood, and the one honest sentence that lets you restart intimacy without a heavy, fraught conversation. If you don't know how to break the silence, bring the free Yes, No, Maybe Checklist to your next date night: mylibidodoc.com/yesnomaybe
If sex has become something you do just so you're not the "bad" partner, or something you keep waiting to feel like doing, you're not broken and you're not alone. In this episode you'll learn why many women don't want sex first and then start, but begin to want it once things are already underway, and why waiting until every emotional issue is fixed before you touch each other can keep you stuck. If you're too tired to even think about being in the mood, start with Dr. Diane's free video e-book How to Want It Again at mylibidodoc.com/libido-video-ebook.
You had the same fight again tonight — different words, same wall — and now you're lying back-to-back on your own edges of the bed, wondering when "partners" quietly became "roommates who occasionally argue." In this episode you'll understand why the clock matters more than being right: repairing within 24 hours, and naming the criticize-then-withdraw loop you're both stuck in, is what actually keeps the distance from hardening into permanent. If tonight followed the same script it always does, take the free Sex Code Language quiz at mylibidodoc.com/freebies to finally see the pattern you and your partner keep triggering in each other.
By now it feels safer to stay quiet than risk another talk that ends with one of you walking off and the other chasing them down the hall. In this episode you'll see that what looks like a communication problem is usually a safety problem — and that giving a tense conversation a clear time limit is often the one small move that keeps one of you from bolting and the other from pushing until you both shut down. When the words have stopped coming easily, start there: grab Dr. Diane's free Yes, No, Maybe Checklist at mylibidodoc.com/freebies — a five-minute way back into the conversation.
