INTIMACY
1 min read
Hello, sweet couples,
In a world bombarded with messages that romanticize and sensationalize sex, it's easy for couples to get caught up in unrealistic expectations. You might have heard the mantra: "Have as much sex as you want, with whomever you want, whenever you want." It's a seductive but misleading notion that can wreak havoc on the intimacy of a relationship.
🛠️ Understanding the Hollywood Illusion
We all know the romantic scenes in movies where everything seems perfect, and passion burns endlessly. But we have to remember that these are scripted moments, far from the complexities of real-life relationships. It's essential to separate fiction from reality. Physical, spiritual, emotional, and intellectual intimacy form the sturdy foundation of a fulfilling marriage. When you enter into a marriage, it's not merely a partnership between two individuals. In the eyes of God, it's the fusion of two lives into one.
🛠️ Balancing the Physical
While sex is important, it's just one piece of the puzzle. We'll discuss how maintaining physical intimacy enhances your connection but should never overshadow the other aspects of your relationship.
Remember, true intimacy in marriage is a multifaceted journey. It's not about replicating Hollywood's fleeting moments but rather building a lasting and profound connection that will withstand the test of time.
