📖 Your marriage pop quiz


It's back to school season! 🏫

And while you might be focused on getting your kids ready for school or sending your young adults off to college, there's someone else who needs to head back to school: YOU!

The smell of new notebooks, fresh crayons, and possibility fills the air.

The back-to-school season brings with it a familiar energy and excitement of starting fresh, meeting new people, and learning something new.

But when was the last time you approached your marriage with that same curiosity?

If you’re like most married couples, especially those of us in our 40s and 50s, you might feel like you know everything there is to know about your spouse.

After all, you’ve been together for years, maybe even decades.

You know how they take their coffee, their favorite TV shows, and exactly which way they’ll load the dishwasher.

But while you’re changing and growing (and we all are as we navigate midlife), your spouse is changing too...

Oral sex is one of those areas of sexual intimacy that lots of people think about but no one talks about.

Just to be clear: Oral sex is any sexual activity in which you stimulate your spouse’s genitals with your mouth. You may have also heard it referred to as cunnilingus and fellatio.

Some people feel that this is an absolutely NO-GO while others are all for it. In some marriages, it might also be a one way street and others make it a couples thing.

Oral sex can be a great tool for any marriage. And yet this is one of those areas within sexual intimacy that doesn’t just happen.

You need to talk about what you would like to try and if oral sex is not part of your marriage toolbox… why isn’t it?
