What happens when one person in the relationship wants more sex—and the other doesn’t?

This is one of the most common (and least talked about) dynamics in long-term relationships. The higher-desire partner can feel rejected, frustrated, or unwanted. The lower desire partner can feel pressured, inadequate, or shut down. And over time? Resentment builds, distance grows, and intimacy starts to erode.

If you’ve ever thought, "Why don’t they want me the way I want them?", this is episode is for you.

Because wanting more sex isn’t the problem. Not knowing how to navigate it together is.
