No-sex marriages used to be a way to control family size but now no sex often indicates issues in a relationship.

Once sex leaves the marriage, divorce soon follows for many. This is because coping with a sexless marriage is extremely painful.
The main reason for this is an overwhelming feeling of dissatisfaction and a disconnect caused by a lack of intimacy.
Rather than saying, “That will never happen to us”, be proactive and take the steps to avoid finding yourself in a sexless marriage.
Doing so is really quite easy and will avoid unnecessary problems down the line.
All areas of a marriage require attention and it is up to you and your spouse to provide that attention.

Hi neighbours,
Is it time to ban the private sale of fireworks in favour of public displays only? Or is Guy Fawkes just a bit of flammable fun?
Would you like to see tighter restrictions on fireworks or are you a sparkler fiend who sees no problem with celebrating safely at home?
