I know the message is for men. If you don't mind, I'd like to share my take from a lady's pov.

1. Make 'quality' time together. Eg. Talk about your relationship away from the responsibility. Responsibility kills desire. Hence, set time to be playful together like when you were dating. Be curious together.

2. Undivided attention. Sometimes all we need is your attention, sounding board and to be listened. If you can give that to your partner, active listening, be intently present then you can empathise what she is going through or her needs or wants.

3. Communication. I am talking about two way comms. It also matters 'how' you communicate. Without being selfish and lashing out is not communication. It's entitlement and immaturity. You ability to relay what you want and what you need takes a lot of skills. Do this incorrectly and it will invite resentment in the relationship.

All of these go both ways too. Women out there will benefit with this too.

Lol that's long. Hope it helps! ☺️😂

beautiful list, Lady Mae~!

every point is excellent advice. and the common theme—loving intention.

"responsibility kills desire."

yes~!

"because i have to" has nothing on "because i want to." it makes all the difference, and that difference can be felt.

💯 esp if your partner is in tune with her/his energy that can sense when the gesture is genuine or not.
