Maintaining Intimacy in Marriage: Avoiding the Roommate Trap.

Is your marriage starting to feel more like a roommate situation than a romantic partnership? In this raw and honest conversation, Dave and Angie dive deep into what it really takes to create a fulfilling relationship—one built on intimacy, honest communication, and intentional time together.

In this episode, we delve into the critical topic of marital intimacy and the pitfalls of becoming mere 'roommates' with your spouse. We explore the implications of drifting apart in marriage, sharing real-life examples and personal experiences. Our discussion covers the importance of prioritizing your relationship, maintaining physical and emotional closeness, and addressing potential issues head-on.

We also highlight the challenges of balancing individual pursuits with maintaining a connected and fulfilling partnership. Join us for this candid conversation on how to keep the spark alive and build a lasting, loving relationship.

We explore the early warning signs of emotional drift in marriage, from sleeping in separate rooms to only talking about kids, work, and to-do lists. You’ll learn how to reconnect with your partner, rebuild intimacy, and shift from managing life together to truly living it side by side.
