Well, thats always a good thing, having a healthy, "lifelong" sex life in marriage, tends to be an indicator that other things are going well in the relationship.
If one or both partners feels lacking in trust, lacking a "partner bond", lacking real intimacy, neglected, or that their needs are being frustrated, then it's almost impossible to have satisfying sex.
Aside from unresolved relationship problems, there are plenty of *physical* reasons why someone could lose interest in sex. Stress is probably the most common factor; clinical depression, hormonal changes (in women AND men), pregnancy, substance abuse, etc, etc. Sex drive tends to vary a lot; for most people it's pretty normal to lose interest at least *occasionally.*
Part of real love, and having a healthy marriage, is patience, tolerance, and acceptance.
If you love someone, you should be willing to accept that they may not be interested in sex, all the time; your marriage should not absolutely depend on physical intimacy. A marriage that is based purely on infatuation and sex will quickly fizzle out, unless the couple can find other, more dependable, more lasting grounds for the relationship.

I really don't think you can generalize on this, but after less than 2 years the passion should still be there. Question? How long, if at all, were the two of you sleeping together before marriage? That will come in to play as well.
If you two are in love, the passion shouldn't go away at all, it just gets to a point where the love making becomes less frequent. But when you do, it should be dynamite.
If your sex life is failing this soon, you need to find out why. That is step one. Step 2 is to find a solution, weather it be counseling or finding ways to make sex more exciting for the two of you. Hope this helped.

First of all, if you married your spouse for sex then that was the wrong reason. Sex should be icing on the cake because your relationship with your spouse is great. Before you were married you should have asked the question, " If something were to happen to my partner and they were seriously hurt and couldn't function normally , would I still want to be with that person?" Your marriage should be a bond that nothing could tear it apart. F'ing, sex, love making, passionate love making, screwing, getting your rocks off, or whatever you want to call it is all the same, but how you feel about that person makes the difference. So, if your relationship with your spouse is great then you will always have great sex. Get to know your spouse more and grow as a team together and I promise you years from now this question won't even be a question.

What Is Passionate Love Making

A marriage can survive with out sex but, believe it or not, that is a big reason for divorce. One wants it and the other doesn't.
It's completely personal. Sex is a huge part of marriage. Passionate love making can last a life time and sometimes it dies out.
If you are having issues, you need to talk to your wife about it. If she doesn't see a problem or won't talk about it, you need to see a counsellor. Sex is a big part of marriage. But if both people don't care that they aren't having it, then it's not a problem.
Often one spouse wants it and the other doesn't. What happens is that the one that wants it starts feeling neglected and unloved. And that's normal. You need to talk to her and possibly a counsellor.

Passionate would mean you look at the other person and want to share something special with them. Hence, passionate love making.
Sex is when you're just both in the mood. That works, too. As long as your both emotionally and physically satisfied I don't know what the problem could be.

Your sex life will definitely go through changes. When your wife gets pg and after, she may be tired and uninterested for a while with roving hormonal changes. Then when meno pause comes along and hormones are waning, there maybe some bumps in the road, but after all that, it gets really, really good again. Be patient and understanding. Always be as informed as you can about the different stages a woman goes through in life, that will help you cope with the changes.
