I'm just not interested. But have you tried just actually being more intentional about having a sex life and being sexual? And for me, that means the whole thing about getting ready, which is doing my hair, having a shower, wearing some nice perfume, perfume, putting on a negligee or something that makes me feel sexy, maybe even heels in the bedroom, which can be quite spicy.
