Give Up Guilt For Good

You Feel Guilty About... Neglecting Your Relationship
You used to be eager for sex, weak at the knees when you saw your partner and desperate for the weekend when you could be alone together. Now, if you're like most women, juggling domestic and career duties, it's easy to lose touch with your other half.

According to a new research reports, more than 62 per cent of women spend more time each week cleaning their home than nurturing their love lives. If you feel bad about not spending enough time on your relationship, then it's important to realise that time is finite.

Learn to prioritise. Be realistic about what you can achieve - especially at home. The kitchen floor does not need to be scrubbed every day. You don't need to do everything to prove you're the perfect partner.

If you let go of your idea of domestic perfection, you'll have more time to fix the things you really feel guilty about. Set aside time for sex and your partner that fits in with your life. Sex doesn't have to be of an Olympic standard to be fantastic.

And being alone together, whether it's for half an hour a day or two hours each weekend, is what will keep your relationship alive. It's all about balance. Ditch the guilt. Look at the real issues in your life and find practical solutions for them.

With inputs from Psychologist Louise Raggett and Family therapist Elizabeth Harper
