It does not matter how long you have been in your relationship, these tips will come in handy in building a strong and lasting relationship.

 

Respect Personal Interests, Opinions and Preferences

As much as you and your partner may be in a relationship, you also need to understand that they still have an identity outside of you. These identities include personal interests, opinions and preferences. Understand which interests conflict and which complement one another. Be open to sharing your thoughts on issues and even if they conflict with that of your partner, disagree respectfully. Preferences and opinions change with time and new information. The more you know about each other’s preferences, the better you know about them and grow together.

 

Take Vacations Together

Life frustrates us all at one point or the other, the stress gets to us and we need to unwind from it all. Make plans with your significant other and take a soothing vacation together. Planning ahead of time for a vacation or that getaway not only strengthens your bond but spending a romantic time doing fun stuff together also refreshes both your love and you as a person.

 

Have An Interesting Sex Life

A lack of exciting sex life can affect your relationship with your partner so make sure to always be willing to rejuvenate things. Be open to learning about your partner’s preferences, likes and dislikes and fantasies. Discover each other’s bodies as this will both be exciting and revealing at the same time, and you’ll find yourselves discovering new things about each other. Think of or suggest new ways of handling sexual problems together and you will be one step towards overcoming these issues.

 

Pay Compliments

Tell your partner the things you like about them. Make a habit of appreciating their personality or little things they did the day before, even the ones they didn’t realise that they were doing. Appreciating people encourages them to do more.

Not only that, but society has also encouraged feelings of sexual shame, making romantic and intimate sex a scary endeavor to even talk about.

In an online study of 70,000 people in 24 countries, researchers found couples who have a great sex life make sex a priority rather than the last item of a long to-do list. They create space for intimacy and connection. These couples talk about sex and put the relationship first, despite the demands of work and kids. They discover sexual pleasure through a variety of methods, not just intercourse.

Here are three ways you and your partner can make sex more romantic in your relationship.

Master the art of intimate sex talk

The fact that you and your partner can’t have intimate conversations about sex is not good for your sex life. Having sex talks with your lover helps to deepen your intimacy and emotion connection while also learning your likes and dislikes when it comes to sex.

Redefine “sex”

We all have a unique attitude towards sex usually shaped by our individual life experiences. Sex should be about passion rather than achieving a goal like reaching orgasm or mastering a technique. Goal-orientated sex can create sexual dysfunction when the goal isn’t reached as you are more likely to feel like there’s something wrong with you. When you make your sex about passion, then the pressure and shame of not performing to an expectation is gone as you no longer have to feel self-conscious. In other words, simply enjoy the experience as this will make things more pleasurable for both you and your partner. Ironically, not being stressed about having an orgasm makes it easier to have one.

Have a mental erotic love map

Building a mental erotic love map guides you on your partner’s sexual likes and dislikes to help you create a great sex life. Don’t be shy to ask specific questions about what they enjoy and don’t, what they want to try out and what makes them feel uncomfortable. Sample questions can be, What felt good about sex last time? What did we do that caused you to feel closer and connected to me? What did we do that made you relax? What did we do that turned you on? What do you need to make sex better for you? What makes sex more like lovemaking for you? What are fantasies or thoughts you have during sex?
