And if you\u2019ve ever been in a relationship, you can probably attest to the fact that the first few months are pure bliss. That honeymoon phase, when you just can\u2019t keep your hands off of each other, and life is but a dream.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, if said-relationship continues, the frequency of romps in between the sheets almost always starts to slow down as you learn to become more comfortable with one another on other levels.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then again, wouldn\u2019t it be great to be on the same wavelength as your partner, able to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/all-or-nothing-day\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">communicate<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and stimulate each other on all levels whilst maintaining an amazing sex life? Surely so!<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are the Habits of Couples Who Are Having Amazing Sex?<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, we\u2019re going to look at which factors are associated with more satisfying sexual experiences in couples, and habits that both have, ultimately leading to amazing sex beyond the honeymoon phase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you in a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">long-term relationship<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and want to know how to keep that sexual spark alive and burning bright?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Sex is Broadly Defined<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many, sex equals p in a v\u2026 but this couldn\u2019t be further from the truth. Sex is intimacy, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">foreplay<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, penetration, and whatever else you want it to be. Couples who have amazing sex are open to exploring each other and negate the idea that sex equals penetration.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0There is no magical number of times you have to have sex per day, week, or month, but healthy exploration and loving expressions of lust can indicate that a couple is in a good place.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Knowledge = Power<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like above, where couples broadly define the word \u2018sex\u2019, couples who are having amazing sex are also open to, and take part in, researching sex and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sexuality<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For example, they may take the time to learn about erogenous zones, different ways to stimulate their partner, new acts of foreplay, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/sex-positions-for-high-sex-drive\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">new sex positions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as well as learn more about the anatomy of their lover. This can lead to more diverse sex lives and even more satisfaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Touch, One of the Most Intimate of the Senses<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Couples who are having amazing sex use the power of touch to their advantage. They know that simple acts that include touch, be it sexual or non-sexual, has the ability to bring them closer together. For example, holding hands, cuddling, and deep kissing. All this helps to create a bigger connection and trust. Touch is also excellent to use during foreplay, such as tickling or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/full-body-sensual-massage\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">massaging<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as it takes the pressure off of penetrative acts and allows both partners to be more present and intimate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Judgement-Free Zone<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When couples can talk to one another about their fantasies and interests, and be open enough to communicate what they do and don\u2019t like in the bedroom, they\u2019re opening the gates to an incredible sex life. In other words, judgement-free communication is one of the biggest habits of couples who are having amazing sex.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. There\u2019s Always Time for Sex!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No two people are the same. So when one feels particularly turned on while the other doesn\u2019t, or one partner has a high libido and the other has a low libido, it could equal a recipe for disaster. But there are various ways to work around <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/dealing-with-mismatched-libidos\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mismatched libidos<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and one of these ways is to actually make time for sex. By setting a date and time, you can prepare yourself for intimacy by doing things that make you feel aroused, allowing your mind and your body to be ready for sex. Things such as masturbating, watching or reading <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/erotic-fantasies\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">erotica<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or even engaging in simple acts of foreplay like sexting or sensual massages.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Pleasure Shared is Pleasure Doubled<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Couples who have great sex are rarely selfish partners. They like to give as much as they receive, and may even get extremely turned on when their partner is experiencing pleasure. In this way, it\u2019s about experimenting and taking cues from your partner to know what really turns them on, and vice versa. It could also include participating in a partner\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fantasy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or doing something together that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you\u2019ve<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> really wanted to try. Of course, consent is mandatory.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Sexual Wellness &amp; Sex Toys<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some people find using sexual wellness aids and sex toys to be intimidating. However, couples who are having amazing sex usually recommend it. Using sexual tools such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/personal-moisturizer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lubrication<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to ease vaginal dryness is not something to be ashamed about, it\u2019s actually a lot of fun and can result in all kinds of slippery experiences. Another example is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/what-is-a-sex-pillow\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">using a pillow<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to prop onesself up for deeper penetration. This isn\u2019t embarrassing, it\u2019s merely a way for both partners to have an excellent and satisfying time together. Then, of course, there are sex toys. These wondrous products can enhance your intimacy tenfold, help you find new ways of experiencing arousal, and allow for a bit of adventurous fun. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/fun-sex-toys-for-couples\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Couples toys<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are great for even more intimate sessions and superb sex.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8. Orgasm isn\u2019t the End Goal<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many couples who have amazing sex, achieving an orgasm isn\u2019t the reason for sex, nor is it the end goal. These couples often enjoy the experience, imbibe the intimacy aspect, and don\u2019t run to the \u201cfinish line\u201d aka orgasm. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Orgasms<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are great, indeed, but simply being with a partner, creating connections, is the perfect way to enjoy better sex and even bigger orgasms. Additionally, when orgasming isn\u2019t the be-all and end-all, it takes away a lot of pressure that some may experience during sex.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And so, for couples who are in long-term relationships and experiencing amazing sex, can you identify with these eight habits? And for those seeking a long-term relationship that\u2019s filled with amazing sex, allow these habits to pave the way for excellent intimacy and lots of fun.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sex, nay, amazing sex, is something we all deserve.
