Always Desired

Advice from the leading expert on erotic intelligence and an experienced psychotherapist on how to maintain the passion of the early days of love in long-term relationships.
Entering into long-term romantic relationships, we yearn for peace, stability, and security. But in gaining all this, we often lose interest in our permanent partner as novelty, mystery, uncertainty, and spontaneity—the essential companions of sexual desire—vanish from our lives.
It seems that this puts us in the position of having to make a choice: comfort and confidence in the future or exciting, vibrant, and romantic sex. However, Esther Perel argues that overcoming this contradiction is entirely possible. In this book, you will learn how to build harmonious relationships that combine sexual attraction to your partner with emotional closeness, long-lasting love with consuming passion.
The book contains research findings, examples from the author's psychotherapeutic practice, honest and effective recommendations that will enable you to change your relationships and revive the desire characteristic of the early days of love.
