Has your bedroom turned into a battleground—or worse, a ghost town? In this episode of Hearts Wine from Hearts Distractions, we’re unpacking one of the most intimate yet quietly devastating truths couples face: when sex starts to feel like a chore. Whether you're dating, newly married, or years into your commitment, this episode dives deep into the emotional, psychological, and cultural shifts that make sex feel like another task on the to-do list instead of a shared act of love.


We’ll explore:

  • Why emotional disconnection, resentment, and stress kill desire
  • The myth of spontaneous sex and why scheduled intimacy is not unromantic
  • How generational beliefs and gender roles shape sexual expectations
  • What "reclaiming intimacy" looks like across different stages of love
  • Tools from Marriage & Family Therapy and real-life couples who turned things around

You’ll hear relatable stories, controversial truths, expert insights, and poetic reflections that will make you laugh, think, and possibly cry. But most importantly—this episode offers real solutions to rekindle the passion in your relationship, one conversation at a time.


💬 Don’t suffer in silence or settle for a sexless love—let’s talk about it.
