So, how do you get out of the rut? How do you get out of that horrible dry spell phase of marriage or even relationships?

1. The Lines of Communication Need to Be Busted down
Open up girl! Seriously, one reason for a dry spell is because you don't talk about it. At all.
2. Timing is off
Do you make any time for each other? It's doubtful if you aren't having sex.
Frequently asked questions
3. Spend Time Together
Okay, so this goes with #2, but it's different, because you can make time for one another and it isn't quality. Make sure it is quality time when you're together. Seriously, it makes a difference.
4. Remove Any Conflicts
That means on time or even personally. Remove any and all conflicts.
5. You're Not Feeling Sexy Enough for Sex
It happens sometimes right? Why not spice it up a little bit and get to the root of the problem of why you aren't feeling sexy.
6. Be Open Minded
You've GOT to have an open mind when it comes to sex so you don't get bored. Seriously, it works.
7. Be Positive
You can't be negative when you are going through a dry spell; it doesn't help anyone.
8. Be Completely Honest and up Front with Your Partner
If you aren't feeling it, you've got to tell them. Seriously.
9. Try Masturbating
I know it might seem … weird to do that when you are going through a dry spell, but it can help you get inspired!
10. Share Your Feelings

I'm being honest here, you've got to open up to feel more connected.
11. Don't Plan for Sex
You heard it! Don't plan it, just let it happen.
12. It Could Be about Your Health Too
Sometimes, the dry spell can be about your stress or your relationship but sometimes, it can be about your health too. Keep that in mind and make a doctor's appointment!
13. Make Sure You Are Well Rested
Seriously, it is critical to your health, your mind and your sex drive!
14. Consider Other Means to Be Intimate
Cuddling, talking and just connecting on a deeper level.
15. Ease into Sex
This is ESPECIALLY true if you haven't had it for a while. Don't just rush into it.
16. Toys?
They could really, really help both of you feel comfortable.
17. Don't Let It Get You down
Being depressed because you are in a dry spell isn't going to work, you need to take action to get over the dry spell. Trust me!
