Law enforcement couples commonly have the problem of staying connected.  It can be tough to make sure that relationships and connections stay strong enough to have passion, intimacy, and sexual activity in the bedroom. Both sides of the couple can feel like they're making efforts to stay connected and feel that those efforts aren't seen or they're not noticed by the other party.

Sometimes it can feel like both people in the relationship are volleying the ball, but they are on different courts.  They aren't getting the serve volleyed back.  Maybe their tennis rackets have holes.  Heck, maybe one person is playing tennis while the other is playing pickleball. It can feel like your relationship is playing on an open court with the ball traveling into a void. That void can be a terrible feeling and lead to loneliness. It can feel like both of you are showing up to play, but not in a way that either one of you can understand.
