Has the spark of sexual chemistry gone out of your love life? Here is a list of ten potential indicators that your relationship lacks the intimacy and sexual attraction it once had.

6 Signs That You Fear Intimacy in Relationships
Being in a serious relationship can be difficult, especially if you have a fear of intimacy.
