Finding a spark is easy. Keeping that spark alive can be difficult as life, kids, work, and stress take their toll. Without intentional effort, good boundaries, and dedication, even the most loving and passionate relationships can be strained, transforming beds into dead zones for lovers-turned-roommates. We tackle this thorny problem with Ralph from Dad Starting Over, investigate how efforts to fix sexlessness and loneliness can go horribly wrong, and review some of the resources intended to help get a little life back into a chaste crypt of a bedroom.
