Understanding the Importance of Making Love in a Relationship

Sex is great, but making love is better. Making love with your partner is more intimate, and builds trust and understanding in your relationship. In addition, lovemaking can be much more pleasurable than animalistic sex can be. Some of the benefits of lovemaking include stress relief and happiness.

It’s impossible to make love to a person that you do not love, however. Lovemaking is the domain of people who are intensely in love with each other and is a by-product of their love.

This article will break down the importance of lovemaking in a relationship:

Trust

Lovemaking builds trust and confidence in your relationship. This trust will allow you to explore your sexuality more confidently with your partner. When you have trust and confidence in your relationship, you can share more complex fetishes that you might have, like BDSM for example.

According to the sex experts from this site, BDSM can be very fun. In addition to sharing your fetishes, building trust will help you to share more intimate details about your life with your partner, which will build your relationship and help you to get to know each other better.

Intimacy

In addition to building trust in a relationship, making love to your partner can build intimacy, both physically and mentally. Because lovemaking is so intimate, the act begets more intimacy. For a relationship to be successful, it’s important that you and your partner are emotionally involved. You will enjoy cuddling and touching your partner more. You will also feel closer to them, in an emotional sense.

As we mentioned previously, you will feel more confident sharing information about yourself with them, and vice versa. Intimacy in a relationship is very important.  

Health

Studies have found that couples who have sex more than twice a week, have fewer health problems than couples who have sex once or twice a month. This is mainly because lovemaking increases one’s immune system, making one’s body stronger against viruses, illnesses, and diseases.

Lovemaking also reduces a person’s stress levels, which combats high blood pressure, anxiety, and stress disorders, not to mention that lovemaking improves one’s mood, which combats depression and feelings of emotional grief. While lovemaking isn’t a magical cure that will relieve you of your ailments, it is a good way to keep yourself in shape and safeguard against some diseases.

Sleep

In addition to all of the previously mentioned benefits of lovemaking, it can also improve your sleep. This is especially true if you sleep next to your partner. It’s common for people who share a bed with another person to be roused at night by snoring, heavy breathing, or just general noise.

When you make love to your partner, you will fall into a deep sleep [and so will they]. This means that you are unlikely to wake if they make noise, and if you do, you will be less inclined to shout or find their noise-making annoying.

Fitness

Like we mentioned previously, lovemaking can keep you in good shape. This is because lovemaking can be very intense – it doesn’t always have to be slow. This passionate, intense lovemaking can be hard work, especially if you don’t go to the gym often.

Ultimately, this is a form of exercise and can help to strengthen your body and keep you in shape. Some experts go as far as to say that sex can be a great way to lose weight and tone up. A half-hour of lovemaking can help you to burn over 75 calories.

Contentment

When you are in a committed, loving relationship, and you and your partner regularly make love to one another, you will feel better throughout the day. This happiness from your relationship will spill over into your life. You will be less irritable, happier, and less inclined to lose your temper. This is especially true in your relationship.

Your partner’s annoying quirks will instantly become less irritating. Countless studies have found that, after sex, couples are much happier, and find overcoming adversity in their lives much easier. These feelings of contentment after sex are boosted by the contentment in your relationship and the knowledge that you are with the person that you are meant to be with forever.

Interest

Making love with your partner shows them that you are attracted to them. When you have been in a relationship for a long time, it’s easy to lose the attraction. By continuing to make love to your partner you allay any fears that they might have about a potential loss of interest.

If you are in a relationship, then you will know that there’s nothing better than making love to your partner. Lovemaking is much more satisfying than sex, which is clearly shown by the many benefits mentioned in this article.
