Sex In The Remarriage - The Most Important Ingredient For A Strong Step Family
In first marriages, the old saying is to put a bean in a jar every time you make love during the first year. For every year thereafter, take one out every time you make love. By the end of your marriage, it is said that the jar will finally be empty. It’s a nice wives tale, but not necessarily as accurate for remarriages.
You don’t get that nice, uncomplicated “honeymoon” period with your remarriage. After the “I Do’s” are shared, you come home to children expecting their lives to stay as unchanged as possible even though you’ve made this decision to marry. This can be frustrating and a real let down if you weren’t expecting it.
