Intimacy in the distancing.
Get closer while you remain apart.
Yesterday, my daughter looked up at me and said, "I really like it when you do puzzles with me."
My heart was happy. In what is now our 6th day of distancing, she is seeking out connection - she is acknowledging the intimate way in which we are interacting, even when we are away from everyone else.
It got me thinking- how many of us are spending more time with our children, family members, lovers...whether we want it or not, many of us have the time to be close. Intimate even.
Shall we make a new term combing distant and intimate? Dintimant?
Okay, maybe that is a stretch, but I'd love to give you some suggestions on finding the intimacy in the distance with your partner.
- Talk to your partner about what "home" is to you
- Discover a more lengthy pre-penetration play
- Find parts of your partner's body that haven't been kissed in a while
- Have a conversation about what it means to be "close"
- Discuss what you want to feel, emotionally in your sex life
- Talk about your favorite environment to have sex in
This week, let's focus on dintimacy. (I'm clearly not giving this word up easily.) And let me know how it goes!
I love you. I'm rooting for you.

P.S. Want something extra fun to do tonight?
I typically teach at the Velvet Box here in the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex at their physical location, but they have chosen to take their education courses online! Which is GREAT NEWS FOR YOU dear one. Click the link below to join my course all about the G-spot tonight at 7pm central time! It's only ten bucks and will certainly leave you knowing way more than you ever thought about the g-spot and squirting. (How's that for getting intimate??)
