Emotional and Physical Intimacy Guide – Sexual Frequency
As far as relationships are considered, everyone is asking if there is a particular “magic number” for sex that guarantees emotional connection and satisfaction. Although there is no all-encompassing answer, striking the equilibrium between healthy sexual frequency, intimacy, and some degree of experimentation can help your relationship reach new sensual heights.
This guide will focus on outlining how often lovers should partake in sex, value of quality vs quantity, how to enrich emotional bonding through lovemaking, and how to enhance things using toys, lingerie, and other instruments. We will now begin the journey of feeling great inside and outside the bedroom.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD A COUPLE ENGAGE IN SEX
First things first? There should not be sexual frequency benchmarking against other people, rather, what feels right for the couple.
WHAT RESEARCH SUGGESTS ABOUT SEXUAL FREQUENCY
Evidence indicates that partners partaking in sexual activity at least once every week have greater relationship satisfaction than those who are less active. In Social Psychological and Personality Science, the researchers note this so called “weekly sweet spot” achieves balance in emotional intimacy and physical connection without feeling like a chore.
Even so, the research is not absolute. Some couples find that they feel most content having sex a few times a week, while others require only a monthly encounter as long as the emotional connection remains strong.
What’s the conclusion? In this case, quality trumps quantity. Relationships that are struggling will not benefit from frequent sex, however, meaningful sexual encounters will strengthen a relationship in a way nothing else can.
FACTORS IMPACTING SEXUAL FREQUENCY
Different aspects can alter your sexual rhythm:
Life Periods: Are you busy with children, or, is your job extremely demanding? Don’t be surprised if your sexual being takes a dip from what it was in earlier years.
Stress Levels: Stress can zap libido, so a satisfying sex life requires effective stress management.
Health and Age: Physical health changes with time, and while this may seem like a limitation, adapting to the changes can still allow one to enjoy meaningful intimacy.
Desires in Mutuality: Unmet expectations can be difficult to navigate, which is why open discussion about sexual frequency and intimacy tailored to please both partners is critical.
In the end, the optimal frequency is what allows both you and your partner to feel fulfilled together.
HOW TO ENSURE INTIMACY AND SEXUAL ENCOUNTERS ARE SATISFYING
Sex is not about ticking off an item on the list. Focus shifts to enjoyment, connection and exploration. Naturally, enhancing the quality of the encounters will prove even more satisfying no matter the number of intimate encounters one has.
FOCUS ON FOREPLAY
Foreplay is a beautiful build-up to the peak moment in a relationship. Consider the sensual foreplay activities such as kissing and massages that gradually warm up everything.
Furthermore, consider adding foreplay items such as vibrators and/or dildos to spice things up. These items can bring great fun to the relationship. Look for new chic items to spice up your routine!
EXPLORING TOGETHER
Great intimacy is brought by creativity, therefore draw up new plans to achieve amazing experiences.
Lingerie: You can wear playful attires that hugely impress them. You will feel more confident, plus it helps them to enjoy the view.
Change of environment: Exitting the bedroom for a change of environment helps to respark intimacy. Picture book escapes or cozy places like the fireplace.
New toys: Explore together with a vibrating dildo or adults playsets.
This should be done with a mutual agreement and open mind to whatever boundary you both set.
TALKING MAKES IT SEXY
It is known that intimacy escalates when open communication exists. Always talk about personal fantasies and likes.
Instruct your partner on how exactly you would like them to touch you.
Though it may seem uncomfortable at first, being able to speak freely is one of the most powerful tools in your control.
SEX AND EMOTIONAL INTIMACY
There is an intertwining between sex and emotional connection – it goes beyond just physical attraction. You can develop emotional intimacy and it’s one of the ways to promote advancement in your relationship.
THE EMOTIONAL BENEFITS OF LOVEMAKING
Sex is a strong activity to enhance the emotional connection one feels with another, especially through the release of oxytocin – the hormone that promotes feelings of emotional warmth and closeness. It also fosters trust andsmake stress levels diminished, allowing both of you to feel better and be more in-tune with each other.
HOW TO STRENGTHEN EMOTIONAL COMMUNICATION THROUGH SEX
Be Present: Being attentive to what your partner is experiencing in real time enhances the quality of intimacy.
Post-Sex Conversations: Cuddles after sex are the best time to talk about their feelings, tell them that you love them or say your highlights.
Affectionate Actions Before and After the Sex: Regularly hugging, kissing, or holding hands enhances the physical bond and as a result, the emotional bond.
When there is a great level of emotional intimacy, couples realized that it enhances the physical aspect of their relationship.
