PART III

Sex for Life

In Part I we discussed the nature of the sexual self.

In Part II we talked about sex and gender.

In Part III we’re going to put these fragments together and look at becoming a lifelong committed couple—from starting out as partners in the first place, through the expectable crises of midlife, and beyond.

My focus will be on sexually exclusive long-term relationships. That’s not the only option these days, but for a whole host of reasons most people today still want to be monogamous.

If you’ve absorbed the lessons in this book, you already know a lot about how to have good sex with someone you love. But you can have lots of good sex together and still after many years find yourself without any desire for your partner. Desire is a frequent casualty of domestic life.

There are lots of books on what to do about this—how to keep desire alive, or bring it back once it’s gone. This is not one of those books.

In the chapters that follow, I’m going to show you a different approach to thinking about eros in long-term relationships.

The approach I’m going to recommend doesn’t rely on desire at all. Instead, it involves turning inward to connect with your deepest sources of inspiration.

That’s better than just trying to stimulate desire. It’s also a much better way to stay connected for a lifetime—as I’ll show you.

Interested?

Good.

Let’s get started.
