Does Your Relationship Need A Refresh?

November 7th, 2011 - By LaShaun Williams

Anyone who has ever read my love and relationship column knows I am a martyr for monogamy; but, I would be lying through my teeth if I acted as if it was a walk in the park.

Naturally, relationships go through cycles like the people involved. The first six months of dating tend to differ from the 24th month, and, for many, the newlywed stage of marriage is quite different than year seven. However, the idea of long-term monogamy is not to blame. It is our inclination to subconsciously hit cruise control when we have reached particular levels of comfort. And, that comfort is what gets us stuck in mundane patterns of behavior.

As people, we evolve and so should our relationships.

    Lol this is me and the hubby. (For SHAME I know). We are so boring. The most we do is go to the show and take the baby out for walks and rides. Then back to nothingness….
     
    Now for the goof ball in me: I shave cause I don’t like bush. Nothing against the ladies who keep it natural but I can’t be walking around with a damn afro under my arms or between my legs. Victoria’s Secret is missing me because I’m tubby and 5’4″. Aint got nothing to do with the lace and thongs being at the bottom of the drawer. And I never cut corners on the cooking… I have to eat too so why would I ruin my food?

     Why did you exclude the things men need to do to keep us interested and physically stimulated?
