Dear How to Do It,
How is anyone finding the will to get themselves into the mood to have sex these days, while we’re forced to watch the doom and gloom of everything happening in the U.S.? I’m in a long-term relationship. I was chatting with some friends earlier this week, and one of them was detailing her latest sex adventure. So it made me think back to the last time my boyfriend and I had sex … Inauguration Day! It hasn’t been on purpose, but I feel like every night we’re just dooming about the latest new, horrifying development. Really, how can we get turned on under these conditions? But are we really just going to be celibate for the next four years?
