Sexuality is a not a reflection of a relationship. It should not be assumed a loving relationship naturally leads to hot action in the bedroom. To Perel, sexuality and love run a parallel track. Eroticism has more to do with the joy of living & with feeling alive. It is a very personal expression of one's individuality, unburden by any external connection to another person.
And while love does not imply eroticism, the opposite is more common. Changing the sexual dynamic in a couple will improve the relationship as well.
