How to Stop Compromising and Create F.I.R.E in the Bedroom
Manage episode 494586383 series 2087733
You deserve a fulfilling sex life without settling or compromising. The FIRE method provides a framework for creating a deeply connected and satisfying intimate relationship that works for both partners.
• Higher desire partners often feel they must settle in their marriages, leading to resentment and diminished intimacy
• Emotional connection alone doesn't guarantee a satisfying sex life – sexual dynamics require specific attention
• F – Face your beliefs about sex that were planted in your "garden" growing up
• I – Initiate honest conversations about desires, boundaries, and preferences
• R – Rewrite the rules together as a couple, free from cultural expectations and shame
• E – Engage consistently through different life stages, creating rituals and "bridges to desire"
• Sexuality should be approached playfully, like recess for adults
• Regular "Sex Talk Tuesdays" can help normalize ongoing conversations about intimacy
