Parents Can Still Be Intimate!

Are you married? If you are, are you also a parent? If you are married and a parent, how is
your sex life? Depending on the age of your children and the size of your family, it might not
be great. Many parents wish that they had a better level of intimacy with their partner and on
more occasions. If you are one of those individuals, there are a number of steps that you will
want to take.

When it comes to intimacy in a relationship, it is important to remember that more than the
bedroom and sex is and should be involved. Does your intimacy only get started when you
climb into bed? If so, there may lay the problem.


If you are a parent, you will want to consider using the service of a babysitter. This will
enable you and your spouse to get out of the house and enjoy time alone. In fact, you can
even have a “real,” date. Go to dinner and a movie with your spouse. Unfortunately, many
married couples find themselves entering into a comfort zone that results in their relationship
feeling more like a friendship than a marriage. Do not let your relationship get to this point.
Dating is a nice and easy way to prevent that from happening.

In addition to hiring a babysitter, rely on a trusted friend or family member. What is nice
about taking this approach is the comfort level. Instead of picking a babysitter out of a phone
book, you are entrusting the care of your children into someone that you know and trust. This
alone can result in you having a better time on a date. You may also feel more comfortable
leaving your children with a trusted friend or relative overnight, as opposed to an unknown
babysitter. What does this mean? It means that in addition to enjoying a traditional date,
you may also enjoy a nice, sexual night of privacy, possibly at a nice hotel.

In keeping with childcare that will allow you and your spouse to spend some romantic,
intimate, and quality time together, consider approaching other parents. Do you know the
parents of your children’s friends? If you do, consider making a monthly arrangement with
them. Let them keep your kids for one night and you can do the same for them. This
approach is nice, as you are likely to feel comfortable living your children in the care of
another parent. Also, remember that all parents find it difficult to seek privacy and intimacy.
You may be doing the other set of parents a huge favor.

As important as dating is and can be to your relationship, be realistic. Not every night can be
a date night. With that said, there are still ways that you can be romantic and intimate with
your spouse at home. For example, sneak in a few hugs and kisses here and here. When
your wife is cooking dinner, walk up to her, rub her back, and plant a kiss on her. When your
husband is walking past you, stop him and give him a quick kiss. A simple kiss is enough to
show your partner that you care and want to be intimate with him, without making your
children, who may be watching, feel uncomfortable or out of place.
