Sex File: I can't get in the mood at her parents' house

My girlfriend and I are in our 20s and we've been living with her parents since the first lockdown. To start with it was fine, but now it's really affecting our sex life. How do we get in the mood while we're in this situation? 

To be honest, I'm amazed it is just your sex life that has been affected. No matter how much your girlfriend's parents love you both, house guests have a natural best-by date, and it certainly isn't eight months. That you are all still on speaking terms suggests Herculean levels of tolerance on all sides. One of the main issues for you is presumably privacy.
