Boredom in the bedroom

I went out last night to the movie theatre located on Second Ave in Manhattan to watch the movie "I think I love my wife" with Chris Rock. While watching the first 15-20 minutes of the movie I must confess I felt alot like Rock's character "bored" not only with my sex life but also with my marriage as a whole. I sat there in the theatre and thought to myself, what happened to us? I was a flourishing green plant vibrant and full of life and now I just feel dry and dying at my roots. The movie is true to fact that many couples after a certain number of years of marriage sex becomes few or almost non-existant. We already know why it happens mostly because, work, caring of children and family, exhaustion among both, etc... The thing is I have never once seen or heard anyone except for Dr. Ruth Westheimer mention that lack of creativity in the bedroom can also lead to boredom. What happened to the fire and physical power that was once existant between the couple? Why does it diminish with time? How can a couple make it happen again? I was once told by my own hubby "foreplay is an excuse women make to make sex more complicated" under what rock has he been hiding in lately? What kind of ignorant comment is that? I think most of the time that some sexually obcessed married men seem to think that as time goes on sex is just a standard "lay down on the bed and take it like a good wife" attitude without considering what the woman feels. Coming from a woman who has been married twice I have found this to be true on both occasions. What do you think?
