When you first start dating your spouse and you move into the next stages of living together and marriage, you can’t get enough of each other. You don’t sit on separate couches, you don’t watch separate television shows, everything is done together. You have a whole living room filled with furniture that you rarely use as the two of you sit snuggled tightly together on your over sized chaise lounge. You compromise the things you want to watch in order not leave the same room as the other.
Then one day you’re hot. You don’t want to cuddle under the blankets anymore. You realiza that suddenly you sleep better on your stomach and not in the spoon position. She hates football; he doesn’t like reality television. That is when you find yourself becoming physically separated from your spuse. Something you thought was impossible. “I will never, ever want to be anywhere but hand in hand with my love!”, you thought.
