Should a wife make love when she doesn’t feel like?
It’s said that sex is a love language most husbands speak fluently.
I used to wonder about that.
But eventually, I figured out that to my husband, physical intimacy is one of the ways he processes “I love you.”
Most of us want to feel loved even when we are acting unlovely. When we are less than perfect, we want our spouse to accept us still.
We don’t want only to be loved just when we are good. We long for acceptance even when we are not.
When we finally begin to think of intimacy as a deep need, not just a physical release, it can change our mindset and ultimately our response in bed.
I am excited to be guest posting at Messy Marriage, a beautiful website by my friend, Beth.

This is a great article! It is so true! I never turn down my husband, and when we fight we can never go to sleep without taking care of the disagreement. Normally after we settle it we make up with sex and it’s normally even better than normal. Withholding sex because your angry is sinful. Scripture says to never deprive your spouse of their conjugal rights…aka sex. God knows better than we do so why not be obedient. No matter when you are intimate, whether you’re angry, sad, or happy it always makes things better!
