Although sexless marriages may appear on be on the outside to most people unhappy and un fulfilling - for many couples living this life this is not so. These couples have learnt how to stay happy/positive in a sexless marriage by finding other ways to be intimate with each other.Most of the time it is not a subconscious decision - over time couples find that their sex life begins to decline due to varying reasons such as routine, caring for children, working long hours and lost libido. For these couples their relationship may be totally fulfilling in every other way - but there just is no or very little physical intimacy by the way of sex.
Whenever you think that your mindset is getting a bit negative, think about the worst things that could happen to you and be grateful that none of it has happened yet.Having a healthy level of self-esteem is another great way of staying positive. You are not going to be a positive person if you don't value yourself. So whenever you are feeling down, think about the things that are amazing about you. For instance, you may have given a great presentation at the office meeting or you may have used your creativity recently. It may be something as simple as cooking a meal that your husband loves. You can also make a list of things that are great about you. It will be the boost you need to stay positive.
Although some couples may not experience the physical intimacy of sex - the emotional intimacy for them may be equal to or much deeper than sex. The sense of closeness and unbreakable bond that develops between a couple who have deep emotional intimacy can make a marriage with no sex not seem a problem. When a couple has a strong deep connection on an emotional level - all other problems or issues seem to pale in comparison.
What are you grateful for,Keep a journal of things you are grateful for. Take the time each day to jot down what you have valued from your day or what you are thankful for. Do the same about yourself. What are your personal strengths? What do you like about yourself? Focus on and remind yourself of these reasons to be happy everyday and you're sure to chase those negative vibes away.
There are more homeless families than there has ever been before. And it seems like every time you turn a corner, some one is getting cancer. With all this in life going on, how ever can a person continue to stay positive?Everything was lost, so I felt! The only thing that kept me going was to stay positive, no matter how hard it was.
Reminisce.Think about times in your life when you have felt the happiest or most positive. Allow yourself moments to reminisce about these times and put a smile back on your face. Believe that more of these times can be created in your future."Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love Him" James 1:12
When "Sandy" came and shut off the power in my house, my family quickly came together and prepared for the storm. My mother was ahead of the game and had the materials we needed laid out on the table. Candles were lit. The portable radios were on. The board games and cards were laid out. And of course, there was lots of snacks. My family and I were ready for the storm.
Two: Think of an opportunity to turn the bad situation into a good situation. For instance, I never thought of how many job opportunities there are on the internet until I lost all my money in the real estate market. Now I am climbing back to the top with my online home business. Albert Einstein said: "In the middle of every difficulty, lies opportunity.Three: Realize how bad you feel when you are having negative feelings. Is it really worth it?

Four: The worst thing you can ever do, is to watch all the garbage that is going on in the news, whether it is on the television or in the news paper. It's OK to know what is going on in the world, but don't indulge yourself in it, especially when it is negative. All that does is make you feel worse and think that there is never going to be an end to all the bad stuff happening to you. Instead of listening or reading bad news, read a motivational book, or watch a comedy. You will be surprised at how your feelings will change, when you sit there and laugh until you cry at a funny movie.
