5 Must-Try Tips To Bring Your Intimacy To New Heights

Jan 03, 2019

Did you know that you could be worried about the quality of your sex life with your long-term partner for good reason? If it feels like your bodies aren’t communicating the same way or if you or your partner aren’t getting the same pleasure from physical intimacy, there is definitely work to be done.

For example, you can focus on improving the quality of your communication, and, with your partner’s help, you can improve your love life and restore more positive feelings to the times spent in bed together. Intimacy is about staying connected and fulfilling each other’s needs, such as comfort and pleasure, without expecting something in return.

Not all couples will spend their most intimate times together at night, especially if one or both of them work the night shifts. However, there is something romantic about being together in natural darkness. You can stroll around the neighborhood, at the beach, or in a downtown area, if it feels safe, and then lock lips. It’s fun to hold hands and talk about the near future as well.

Lay down on your pillow and face your partner. Lying cheek to cheek or spread out in your respective favorite relaxing positions is a good way to dialogue. This isn’t a time to necessarily express anger or frustration, but it can be a time to listen to something that really bothers your partner. It could be a problem at work or worry about a loved one’s health or bad habits that need to be shared before your partner can express emotions for you in bed.

This activity could take some getting used to, especially if you haven’t done it since you went through the puppy-love stage. Imagine that many emotions can make their way to the surface while you are silently appraising each other. You or your partner might feel laughter, sadness, disappointment, joy, confusion, love, passion, jealousy, or a host of other emotions.

One or both of you might want to break the moment of staring lovingly at each other and say something with your body or voice, but you need to hold out for the moment.

There is something intimate about raising your heart rate through joint exercise, daring to sweat, and then getting smelly in front of your partner. Some couples prefer to do this in bed by trying many positions and having a long love-making session. Getting sweaty together may call for a level of trust in new relationships.

In other relationships, such intimacy is possible right away because both partners are comfortable enough with their own bodies to get sweaty. Exercising with a partner is also very motivating for achieving your personal fitness goals.

It’s easy to get caught up in meeting our daily obligations to others. Some of our jobs leave us physically and emotionally drained, leaving very little left to share with our partner when we get home. Taking care of kids will make it hard to find time to appreciate your partner.

Find at least five minutes in the morning or before sleep to give your undivided attention to your partner. Don’t ask for anything sexual, but accept physical affection from your partner when offered. Remember, express love and appreciation for having this amazing person in your life.

We hope you take away from this quick read that you and your partner are going to have ups and downs in the relationship. Anything worth saving will take a substantial commitment of time and energy. You won’t always know that things will work out, but you keep communicating, sharing, and appreciating each other. There’s definitely a vested interest in a shared future, but your partner could grow apart from you, which is acceptable if following the concept of free will.
