The Most Common Reasons Couples Stop Making Love
A Journey Through Connection, Conflict, and Renewal
By John Skipper

When love begins, intimacy often feels effortless charged with passion, curiosity, and connection. But as life unfolds with careers, children, stress, and emotional scars many couples quietly find that their sex life fades. The bedroom goes silent. Desire dims. Touch disappears.

Is it a sign the love is gone? Is something broken? Not necessarily.

In The Most Common Reasons Couples Stop Making Love, relationship coach and author John Skipper offers a deeply compassionate, honest, and practical guide to understanding why physical intimacy often fades and how to bring it back. Drawing on real-life stories, psychological insight, and therapeutic tools, this book takes readers through ten of the most common barriers couples face, including:

Emotional disconnection and the "roommate" phase Unresolved conflict and lingering resentment Broken trust and vulnerability withdrawal Shame, insecurity, and performance anxiety Stress, exhaustion, and burnout The chaos of parenthood and major life transitions Mismatched sexual desire and compatibility challenges Physical and medical barriers to intimacy Fear of emotional closeness and intimacy avoidance Redefining sex and intimacy in long-term love

Each chapter blends accessible psychology with reflective questions, exercises, mini workbooks, and gentle guidance to help couples reconnect not just sexually, but emotionally, spiritually, and relationally. Whether you're in a sexless season, navigating emotional distance, or simply longing for deeper closeness, this book will help you feel less alone and more empowered.

Skipper doesn't promise easy fixes but he offers something better: permission to evolve, language for hard conversations, and pathways back to tenderness. With honesty, humor, and humility, The Most Common Reasons Couples Stop Making Love reminds us that intimacy is not lost it's waiting to be rediscovered.

Because the real goal isn't just more sex. The real goal is more connection.
