Sex Inside Marriage
While driving on our way to a Mall, wifey and I laughed on how a radio jockey said in jest, “ang pag-ibig habang tumatagal ay tumatabang” (love as time passes by becomes less passionate) and advised the girl caller not to fall from a man’s sweet talks.
There is an element of truth to what the lady jockey advised, but I would like to point out 2 dimensions of the topic.
- Love is not all emotions and
- The passion can be kept alive inside marriage
Love Is Not All Emotions
The goose bumps in courtship will not last a lifetime, and love does not conquer all. That’s a fact. Those who believe that the magical feeling will last forever is headed for disaster. Once you are settled down, got married and living together for at least 5 years, you become more practical than magical. Children and financial obligations changes your perspective. It does not mean, however, that you are no longer in love.
