Reasons You And Your Partner Should Take A Few Days Between Sex

When you're in a relationship, chances are you're getting down and dirty on the daily. That's just how it goes. No, relationships aren't  of a relationship is about sex.  That's nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed by. Sex is healthy, and it makes you incredibly close to your partner.  However, giving it a rest can be useful to your relationship as well. Even though it seems maddening, keep reading to learn about the reasons you and your partner should take a few days between sex.

Easy does it. Assuming you’re with your partner for the long haul, it’s safe to say that there’s no rush. Not with anything. So when it comes to having sex, the same idea applies. There’s no rush.

Breaks. As great as sex may be, everything is better in portions. Rationing positive experiences makes those experiences more appreciated. This is precisely why couples ought to give their love-making a rest once in a while.

Forward. When you don’t have sex every single night, you and your partner have something to look forward to. This can be a feeling that is sometimes denied to couples, especially when they’re busy trying to work their way up in their careers. This can break the monotony up.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder. Even though you may be head-over-heels in love with your S.O., spreading out the sex is actually quite healthy for you. You’re essentially saying that your relationship isn’t just based around sex — because it’s not.

Desire. You want to give your partner something to be desired, no matter how long the two of you have been together. Not offering up sex every single day is a great start to that. So it’s certainly worth a shot.

Common. When you give sex a bit of break for a few days, you start to miss it. This is good. The longer you wait until the next time, the more you’re going to crave your partner.

Edging. If you’ve never heard of edging, it’s when you keep yourself aroused, but refrain from climaxing. It’s meant to heighten the sexual experience. When you hold off from having sex, you’re essentially edging for days.

Them. When you’re not having sex, you have to fill in that space with something else. But stop looking at this as though it’s a punishment. This is someone you love, so get to know them. There is more to life than banging in the bedroom.

Pressure. Having sex every night can actually cause a lot of pressure. Obviously, not pressure in your body (because that’s guaranteed to be relieved), but mental pressure. Sex can take a lot of out of you, so it can be comforting giving it a rest, even if it’s just for a little while.

Begging. You’re in a relationship, so your partner knows they’re getting sex. You should turn that idea on its head. Dangle the idea of sex over them and make them wait. Showing your dominance and control can be just as sexy as the act itself.

Appreciation. When you’re not having sex whenever the hell you feel like it, your perspectives change — and the same goes for your partner. If you’re not feeling appreciated, that could potentially change when your partner remembers exactly what he or she is missing.

Value. Taking short breaks from sex ups the value of your relationship. It’s not just a union of two people based on sexual adventures — it’s a relationship. A real relationship based on real experiences and real emotions.

Alternatives. Not having sex will help you think outside the box of your relationship. You may be at a point in your relationship where the both of you think you know everything there is to know about each other. This will shake things up, for sure.

Everyday. Will your relationship suffer if you have sex every day (or even a few times a day)? No. Not at all. But taking breaks won’t hurt you, either. It’ll just offer a different kind of experience.

Foreplay. For all you know, giving sex a break might be the ultimate kind of foreplay you never knew existed. It’s less physical, but it’s a shared experience where the two of you are preparing for sex, simply by not having sex.
