In this episode, Matt & Jenn discuss reasons why a husband's sexual invitations may be rejected and what that might teach us about ourselves and our relationship.

  1. Before protesting that you are being unfairly rejected, ask yourself, “Would I want to have sex with someone like me?” Have I met my wife’s needs before expecting her to meet mine? Have I made it easy for her to connect with me spiritually, emotionally and physically?
  2. Some reasons your wife may be resistant to sex with you include:
    1. She has a responsive sexual desire and is not naturally inclined to initiate 
    2. She doesn’t feel connected.
    3. She doesn’t feel attractive.
    4. She is focused on being a mom, not a lover.
    5. She is tired, stressed, or depressed.
