How can you ignite passion in long-term relationships and improve your sex life? John Gottman knows this well. The well-known American psychologist, therapist and researcher devoted his entire career to the analysis of love relationships, with an emphasis on marriage and divorce.

Gottman was twice divorced, but has now been married for more than 30 years to his third wife, psychologist and collaborator Julie Gottman. In an interview with "Psychology Today", the couple revealed what is actually necessary for a long-lasting good sex life.

What will keep romance and passion alive?

Based on the results of a survey of 70,000 couples in 24 countries, I found out what daily habits people have with great sex lives, and it's really simple things, Gottman said.

2. They kiss passionately for no reason.

5. They support each other through thick and thin.
6. They show each other tenderness in public.
7. They talk openly about their sex lives.

Julie Gottman notes that one of the biggest myths about sex should be ignored. People think that sex should always be perfect. Fireworks. This is not realistic. Sex must be what you want, concludes the psychologist.
