Havn't read the article yet but think I probably should! I do know that you really have to work at a relationship to keep it going and stop it from becoming mundane - my OH and I have had a few episodes in recent years when I could easily have shown him the door, but for some reason we keep trying to get back on track - or do I have "mug" written across my forehead?!! With 2 teenagers and 1 nearly teenager in the house, it's not easy to find time alone eetc - thin walls and all that!! And planning in advance does take the spontaneity out of it - think I will read the article!
