But when I complained to one of my friends, a mom of two, she pointed out, “What else do you need to do?” Related story Morning Mom Guilt is the Absolute Worst She was right. I’d already been with my husband for a year-and-a-half, living together for most of it (he was quick to move in but a bit slower to propose), and we’d seen every show, visited every restaurant, and hiked every mountain – even Machu Picchu for our honeymoon (if that’s not true love, what is?...

To quote sex and relationship advice columnist Dan Savage, I’m about as GGG as they come. (GGG stands for “good, giving and game.” Think “good in bed,” “giving of equal time and equal pleasure” and “game for anything” — within reason.) I’m down for sex any time of the day. But morning sex? Half-asleep, bed-head sex when your partner melts into you before you’ve had coffee or the daily to-do list has crossed your mind?...
