1. Has your sex life with your partner improved since you started DBing or since you read SSM? It improved a little. 2. How long have you been DBing or employing the techniques in SSM? 1 year 3. How long did it take till things improved? After 3 months it got a little better 4. What was the most effective DBing or SSM technique for you? ?? We tried scheduled sex, that didn't even last 2 months - except that I did stick to one part of our agreement- not to initiate sex during the week, (we agreed to sex once a week on Friday night or Sat. morning as long as she wasn't on her p. Since she said she was so tired durng the week, I still respect that part even if we have sex about once every 3 months.). 5. Even if it didn't improve your sex life, did DBing or SSM improve your relationship with your partner? We have had better comunication, like some one else said, not great communication but better.
