Keeping the spark alive in a long term relationship

Every long-term relationship goes through it. The early spark, the can't-keep-your-hands-off-each-other stage, eventually settles into something quieter. That's not a sign anything's wrong. It's just what happens, and almost nobody teaches you what to do next.

This evening is a deeper look at desire and connection over the long term. Not the early-days version, the years-in version, when work, kids, stress and routine have quietly changed the picture, and "just make more effort" stopped being useful advice a long time ago.

Over the first 60 minutes we'll cover:

• What really happens to desire over the years, and how to work with it

• Why connection outside the bedroom is what fuels desire inside it

• Spontaneous vs responsive desire, and what it means for the two of you
