During the honeymoon phase, the couple are like glue, and there are generally no issues with their sexual life. But as time goes on, most people's sexual life will go downhill, making people feel like they are no longer "sexually happy". A recent study has provided six indicators for determining whether a couple is "sexually happy" or not, as well as methods for maintaining sexual satisfaction.
1. In sexual love, mutual respect and trust. Sexual therapist Jane Greyer stated that both spouses should have strong sexual self-esteem and consider themselves attractive. Even if both parties want to temporarily separate or one of them is not in a mood, it will not have an impact on the couple's life, and neither party will think recklessly about it. The key to maintaining confidence and mutual trust in sexual life is to actively express one's desires and maintain sexual intimacy with a partner.
2. Put sex at the top. Dr. Ava Kadell, author of the book 'Neurology of Love', stated that making partners feel like they are the key to maintaining a healthy sexual life, and couples with children should pay particular attention to this. Schedule a one-time date every week to prioritize sex.
3. Deep emotional engagement. Certified clinical sexologist Deborah Reina stated that feeling emotionally that a partner is closely connected to oneself and that one is needed can make oneself more interested in sex. A good training method is for couples to spend at least one hour a week communicating to keep their emotional feelings synchronized.
4. The climax comes frequently. Sexologist Carol Quinn said that although orgasm is not all about sex, the lack of orgasm is one of the hallmarks of a couple's flawed sexual life. If both parties have different preferences for sexual timing, they should consider each other's special needs and make corresponding adjustments and changes. Try to reach an agreement on comfort, how to mobilize each other, sexual arousal, time and energy, and mutual respect.
5. The frequency of sexual activity is stable. Chicago psychologist Kelly Kitely said that there is no fixed amount of sexual activity a couple should have per week, but the frequency of sexual activity should remain stable. If there is less sexual activity, it should be increased in frequency. During periods of lack of sexual activity, one party should initiate sexual activity to get sexual life back on track.
6. Regularly masturbate. Registered sex therapist Kate Van Kirk pointed out that masturbation is beneficial for both spouses. Due to the biochemical effects in the human body, masturbation can bring more marital life, which is a win-win outcome.
