Too Much Ej*******on?
Twenty-one times every month, am I right? Unfortunately, it is not that simple. There is no specific number of times to release the male seminal fluid each day, week, or month to get any beneficial result.

Twenty-one times every month, am I right? Unfortunately, it is not that simple. There is no specific number of times to release the male seminal fluid each day, week, or month to get any beneficial result.

Most of us would say ej*******ng feels good. But how can it benefit your health? Like getting Vitamin D, for instance, or doing 150 minutes of cardio a week?

Some research suggests that regular ej*******on has health benefits such as reducing inflammation, improving s***m quality, and better heart health. Meanwhile, there is still a debate claiming that semen retention or avoiding ej*******on is better for your health. Well, let’s find out, shall we?

What is s***m?
By definition, s***m is a male reproductive cell or gamete in anisogamous forms of the s*xual reproduction system. Its complex substance is made out of mostly water, plasma and mucus that contains 5 to 25 calories with calcium as essential nutrients in it. The p***s ej******es semen during or**sm, and these fluids help carry the s***m on its way to fertilise an egg on a female.

During the phase of s***matogenesis, your testicles make several million s***m a day. On a complete s***m production cycle, you can respawn up to 8 billion s***m. This may seem too much, but you ejected anywhere from 20 to 300 million s***m cells per millilitre semen.

We have all heard myths about s***m like pineapple, hot tubs, and being out of supply. What is the truth, however?

It sticks around longer than you think.

S***m usually stays in your body 48 hours after in*******se; however, it can hang around for up to five days to a week, depending on how healthy your cervical mucus is.

Pineapple does not make s***m taste better.

Unfortunately, researchers and scientists haven’t had concrete evidence that pineapple makes semen taste better. It does contain fructose, giving it a slightly sweet taste, but there has never been an actual study that suggests food a guy eats would affect the taste of their swimmers. Although this myth has a ton of unofficial and unauthorised conventional evidence, if it’s working fine for your partner, go ahead and grab a pineapple.

Temperature can decrease s***m productivity.

It turns out that these little swimmers fluctuate with the change of seasons. Exposure to heat or overheating circumstances such as having your laptop on your lap or being in the whirlpool bath, could lessen s***m count. It is at its lowest load during summer months and highest during winter.

Having frequent s*x or ma********on isn’t going to lower s***m count

Don’t worry, you don’t have a limited supply of swimmers to use up. Frequent ej*******on may decrease the volume, but if he generally has an average healthy s***m count, this shouldn’t impact since you generate millions of them every second. But sometimes, too much is not always great. This comes down to our core problems, and that is:

How often should men ej*****te
The question will help you know whether your ej*******on frequency is on average and whether you need self-control. There is no standard amount of times you should ej*****te. Therefore there are no reasons to control your ej*******on. The “normal” number of times you ej*****te varies depending on your age, relationship status, and health condition.

According to the 2015 s*xual exploration study in the US, ej*******on is frequent in men aged 25-30. Once they get to 30 or above, the frequency decreases slightly. However, a study in the journal of reproduction and contraception noted that some of the people in the census had hypers***mia.

Hypers***mia
What does it mean when a guy ej******es a lot? That guy may have a condition called hypers***mia. Hypers***mia is a condition that causes a person to produce a larger volume of semen than average. It is a relatively rare condition compared with other issues regarding seminal fluid. It does not cause any significant physical changes or health attributes. However, it may reduce fertility.

While the name indicates an increasing amount of s***m, this is not always the case. The increase in the volume of the semen may be due to the body producing more other fluids that make up the semen.

What are the causes of hypers***mia?

It is still not well-known. It is normal for a person to experience temporary hypers***mia, but the volume eventually returns to the normal range. Some even suggest there is potentially a connection between prolonged hypers***mia and diet and lifestyle, such as taking supplements or herbs to stimulate s*xual organs.

Other theories believe that a low-grade prostate infection causes inflammation, increasing fluid production. However, these theories remain primarily unstudied, and the exact reason for the condition is unknown.

In many cases, hypers***mia might cause low fertility. Some dudes with a high semen volume may have less s***m than regular in their ej*****te because other fluid in the semen dilutes the levels. This will negatively affect fertility.

Although, a low s***m count does not automatically make a person infertile. A person with hypers***mia can conceive. Men with hyperthermia who have normal to high levels of s***m in their ej*******on will typically have no problems with fertility. If a person with hyperthermia is trying to conceive, the doctors may recommend methods to help improve fertility, including:

Medication

Some of these medications, such as estrogen receptor blockers, might help you to improve s***m count. Clomiphene citrate stimulates hormone production in the brain, increasing s***m production. This is an off-label drug because no reliable studies have proven its effectiveness.

Assisted Reproductive Therapy

It is a treatment that doctors use to increase a person’s chance of successful conception. These include processes such as intracytoplasmic s***m injection. Generally speaking, reproductive therapy involves mixing s***m and eggs outside the body to allow fertilisation and then adding the fertilised egg into the uterus to grow.

Another unpopular method that might help you to gain levels of s***m production is semen retention.

Semen Retention
The magic of not ej*******ng might surprise you.

Constantly seeking an extra edge is always in our nature. As males, we continually strive to improve our health, most often mental, spiritual, physical, and s*xual health. If you're trying to achieve any of these goals, you might be surprised to realise that you can earn more by not ej*******ng. Although it seems contradictory, holding out on ej*******ng for a set amount of time can help.

Avoiding ej*******ng is a topic that seems to have gained much traction recently, although the idea behind it goes back centuries. Before it became popular online, our ancestors sought semen retention for its potential health, emotional, and spiritual advantages. The ideas were clear in Taoism and ta***ic s*x, even if they didn't have the scientific knowledge we have now about the benefits of avoiding ej*******ng.

The best thing about wanting to avoid ej*******on is the fact that there appear to be no more cons at all. Whatever your reason for doing so, there are no known health risks associated with prolonged semen retention. On the other hand, there may be a few benefits that we are still learning the true extent of today.

What positive effects will you gain when fully committed to this semen retention method?

The mental health
Once you’re into the practice, you may notice a reduction of stress or anxiety daily, along with increased motivation when it comes to work, doing projects around the premise or pursuing other goals.

Perhaps the most significant aspect is the renewed sense of self-control you’ll gain from abstinence. All of the benefits can be traced to the increase in testosterone levels. Think about how you felt ready to run your day when you were younger. You might be able to recapture some of that same feeling by avoiding ej*******ng.

The spiritual health
Most men who practised semen retention have reported better overall happiness and satisfaction. Others even have experienced more profound, more meaningful relationships with their partner.

According to them, they are taking the focus away from s*xual pursuits allowing them to concentrate on the other aspects of their love lives. Spending time talking with men who have experienced these benefits can be eye-opening for anyone considering following the same change method.

Physical health
Unsurprisingly, many of these effects are correlated again with higher testosterone levels. Things like being in a mood and increasing energy along with decreasing body fat are the results one might expect from having more testosterone. Perhaps one of the most exciting news is that the scientific benefits of not ej*******ng may manifest quicker than you’d think.

There are many benefits of not ej*******ng for a week. Among the 30 volunteers, testosterone level maxed out on the seventh day. A study made two years prior resulted in increasing testosterone levels in those who did not ej*****te for three weeks. With elevated testosterone, it has been linked to the following improvements:
Greater energy
Increased muscle growth
Thicker hair
Better s***m quality
As mentioned before, these physical benefits can aid our mental and emotional states. It is an exciting cycle of positive realisation that can potentially start after a day of abstinence.

Final Words
There are several, if not many, health benefits for men who decide not to release their swimmers. More research is necessary to determine these benefits and their exact function in everyday life.

Choosing to abstain is purely personal in nature. If you have been searching for a way to upgrade control of your life and experience the health benefits it generates, choosing not to ej*****te might be the correct answer.

S*xual Passion: What is It and How to Keep it Alive?
What is s*xual passion? Is it based on love, or are they from two different spheres?

What is s*xual passion? Is it based on love, or are they from two different spheres?

Many people also confuse the relationship between s*xual passion and intimacy. Unsurprisingly, strong s*xual desire is among the many factors that can deepen the intimacy level. However, s*xual love differs from s*x drive, while many still assume the two terms are interchangeable.

In this blog post, we’ll unravel anything you need to know about s*xual passion, from the definition of what components define s*xual desire, its relation to physical intimacy, and finally, how to keep your s*xual power up.

Defining S*xual Passion
S*xual passion is often a strong tendency to engage in s*xual activity. It stemmed from a strong positive connection with such an activity, including the belief that it's important and valued.

People with high s*xual passion often pursue the activity on a long-term basis. Interestingly, this doesn't always mean they also seek romantic love when engaged in s*xual activity.

This suggests that s*xual passion and deep-rooted emotions are two different things. Many agree that affection and love are something in addition. That said, if you are one of those who are more s*xually passionate – you may often have the ability to build intimacy and finally bring in a romantic relationship much more quickly.

The S*xual Passion Triangle
This section is for you if you feel like you lack s*xual passion. There are three main components of s*xual desire, which can hopefully help you better understand which of the areas you need to improve.

Thrill

Thrill refers to the indescribable sense of excitement and titillating anticipation. Unfortunately, thrill tends to fade over time, which can be a problematic for people engaged in a committed relationship. Imagine you're on a train, going home after a long week of a business trip, knowing that your partner is waiting for you at the train station.

You've missed your partner terribly and didn't want to see them empty-handed. So, you prepared a small surprise – your mind starts to wander, and questions begin to pop up.

Will, your partner like the present? What if they don’t? How will they react? You have the confidence that they will like your gift and you find yourself smiling from the imagination. As you finally spot them waving at you and smiling at you. These little things – all of a sudden – you feel a small rush of thrill in your body and emotions.

Many believe that thrill doesn't last forever. But it's a big old myth. As an awakened lover, you will learn that even if the joy does fade for many couples, it doesn't need to be that way for you. You will learn to get mindful and see your partner with fresh eyes. Then, what is old becomes new and you will fall in love all over again.

Intimacy

Intimacy includes a deep sense of knowing and being understood. It develops over time through shared vulnerabilities and deepening inner connections. Intimacy can be:

Emotional.
Spiritual.
Physical.
Intellectual.
Experiential.
Intimate partners trust each other, allowing them to share joys and sorrows. They also make efforts to deepen and refresh the connection. This lets them see their imperfect partner and relationship with much more clarity.

Therefore, it's fair to say that real intimacy takes time. If you feel like you've known your blind date all your life, you may fall into a false sense of familiarity. That early sense of connection is not the real thing. It sure feels lovely, but it's just your projection of fantasies towards the stranger sitting at the other side of the table.

Let’s look at the seven ingredients of real intimacy:

Trust. Let your partner know you're trustworthy. This can help your partner get closer to you.
Acceptance. When you feel like your partner accepts you for who you are, it's when you know some intimacy has been established
Safety. Intimacy enables people to feel safe enough to risk their hearts. It provides a kind of reassurance that the other person cares.
Honesty. It's about knowing that your partner is all ears for any time you share something personal. This includes feeling comfortable telling hard truths.
Compassion. It's when you feel cared about. For example, you know your partner has your back during bad days.
Affection. Refers to the unspoken ways you show up for each other, like when your partner cooks for you when you're not feeling 100%.
Communication. Without a doubt, it's the key to a healthy relationship.
Sensuality
The sensuality spectrum includes the romantic, s*xual, and erotic connections between partners. During a sensual energy exchange, the five physical senses become more sensitive. The moment may start with intertwined fingers and prolonged eye contact during a fancy dinner.

As you arrive home, those light touches and somewhat innocent glances progress into something spicier. Kissing and hugging are the most essential things we can think of happening in such a situation. But let's not forget how it often calls for nibbling your partner's ear or savouring the taste of your partner’s skin.

Hitting the bedroom, the sensual exploration can range from the sweetest, most gentle, soul-shaking love-making to the hottest, most non-normative raw s*x. There are almost limitless techniques that two hearts, minds, bodies, and souls can connect in the sensual landscape.

It's also important to note that sensuality starts in the mind as well as the body. Our mind, which is our sixth sense, enables us to explore new ways to experience any possible sensual pleasure.

A Closer Look into the Relationship Between S*xual Passion and Physical Intimacy
When it comes to physical intimacy, we can refer to it as physical contact combined with emotional connectedness. The contact in reference includes tickling, caressing, massaging, and cuddling.

To achieve physical intimacy, familiarity is a crucial factor. People who enjoy each other's company are more comfortable taking on affectionate physical contact, leading to increased intimacy.

Furthermore, a deep level of intimacy also enables two people to build trust and understanding. This creates a special kind of bond that makes them feel at ease, or in the more cliché way, at home.

As a result, the two can show affection using their body, often in the most creative ways. Physical intimacy may also progress to public displays of affection. Those involved in such an activity like others to know how they are so into each other. Holding hands, hugging, and kissing are some of the most common ways people display physical intimacy.

We've learned that s*xual passion can improve physical intimacy between partners. Also, we've found that intimacy is in the s*xual passion triangle.

Now, can physical intimacy maintain s*xual passion?

In short, yes.

As you and your partner develop a deeper level of intimacy, maintaining s*xual passion is a piece of cake. As intimacy indicates the existence of something a bit more personal, it can increase the s*xual passion towards the partner they feel intimate with.

The need for physical intimacy is a natural part of human s*xuality. Affectionate touches, especially during s*x, release feel-good hormones like serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins. Therefore, they help manage one's stress level. Without them, increased feelings of loneliness or sadness may present.

However, performing sensual touches require consideration. It calls for consent into one's personal space, as more often than not, they lead to s*xual in*******se. On a side note, physical intimacy is not always about s*xual activities. If that's the case, the relationship is not s*xually passionate. In a platonic relationship, for example, partners hug and give a kiss on the cheek to show you care.

What about S*x Drive?
S*x drive is synonymous with libido. It's about a person's desire to engage in s*xual activity. Like s*xual passion, libido can also be low or high. The terms are pretty self-explanatory. Low libido is a decreased s*xual desire, whereas high libido is an increased desire for s*x.

Here are some factors causing low libido:

Age. While s*xual desire fluctuates throughout, a study shows that one's libido slowly decreases starting at 60.
Mental health. Studies show that people with mental illnesses like anxiety and depression are at higher risk of experiencing a loss of s*x drive.
Obesity. As it increases the risk of s*xual dysfunction, obese people may experience a loss of libido.
Menopause. Due to the decrease of s*x hormones, female libido drops during menopause.
And here are several reasons for high libido:

Exercising. People engaging in physical activities, including cardio and weight lifting, tend to have a higher s*x drive.
High testosterone consistency. Research shows that men have a higher libido than women due to higher testosterone.
Drug-taking. Stimulant drug consumption increases libido.
Tips for Keeping the S*xual Passion Alive
In the early days of a relationship, you may feel like you have sky-high s*xual passion for your partner. You want to see your partner often and can't stop thinking about how wonderful this person is. Even thinking about your partner can make you aroused a bit.

You're not alone if you feel like the flame - or spark - dims over time. Many people struggle to keep their s*xual passion alive. However, there are ways you can try to save it. Here are some tips:

Make time for intimacy. Consider scheduling a s*xy time with your partner, as knowing when and where can build anticipation. Alternatively, you can invest in a weekly date, like a walk in the park or a brunch on a Sunday at 10.00 a.m. The general idea is to allow you and your partner to dress up, engage in meaningful conversation, and rebuild the connection.
Take time to take care of yourself. Think about how you tried hard to impress your partner in the early stage of your relationship by looking and smelling good. Changes certainly make sense once you have dated a long time or even moved in together. Having the opportunity to shower, brush our teeth, and put on perfume can help us feel good about ourselves and our time together.
Don’t forget about each other’s kinks. Every one is unique in what they find s*xually arousing. Therefore, try to be supportive, even if it feels weird at first! For example, if your partner has activity, or arousal to the sun’s rays, you can do it in your private backyard in the afternoon or the bedroom during the golden hours.
Understand differences. Like kinks, how much s*x one needs is entirely individual. You, for example, want s*x several times a week, while your partner wants only twice for the same period. For this reason, talking with your partner to shed light on this topic is crucial to better understand your partner’s views.
Try new things every now and then. S*x can become more routine. And by routine, we mean monotonous. You know what you like as well as what your partner finds enjoyable, and thus how your s*x becomes formulaic. In this case, having good s*xual communication is the key to spicing it up. The good news is that if you don’t yet know what you like, then it’s a big journey ahead. If you find yourself feeling nervous doing it for the first time, just carry on. With practice, you’ll feel less anxious about it.
Final Words
Throughout this article, we’ve defined s*xual passion, explain the s*xual passion triangle, and share some tips to keep it alive. Also, we’ve looked further into physical intimacy and answered the question if s*xual passion is the same as s*x drive.

Keep in mind that flexibility is a crucial factor in s*xual satisfaction. The level of pleasure, desire, eroticism, and satisfaction won’t be the same in every s*x scene. We hope you’ve understood a bit more about s*xual passion. If you still have questions, or just want to share your experiences, feel free to leave a comment!

When to Walk Away from S*xless Marriage
Being in a s*xless marriage can be challenging, and no one wants to admit they’re in it. Something about it feels disempowering, especially for our ego.

Being in a s*xless marriage can be challenging, and no one wants to admit they’re in it. Something about it feels disempowering, especially for our ego.

Meanwhile, the statistics show that 15% of married couples haven’t had s*xual activity within the last six months to one year. And if you’re currently struggling with a s*xlessness period, so do one in seven people.

This blog post will share some leading causes of s*xless marriage and how to escape the situation. Let’s get started.

What is a S*xless Marriage, and Are You in it?
S*xless marriage occurs between partners who have little to no s*xual activity. While there is no clear definition, experts agree that s*xlessness happens when a couple has fewer than ten s*xual encounters within the last year.

Most couples experience periods of more and less s*x throughout. Factors like stress level and fatigue are some of the most common for a temporary period of less s*x. Once you’ve regained control, your s*x life will thrive again.

If that’s the case, then it’s safe to say that your marriage is not the s*xless type.

However, frequency isn’t the only indicator of a s*xless marriage. Experts agree that a s*xless marriage is best defined based on the consciousness of the action – whether or not a couple consciously avoids each other.

Hence, if you feel you have less s*x than you think you should and are annoyed with it, you will have to communicate it to your partner. But if you’re OK with it, all is well; there’s nothing to worry about.

Factors Leading to S*xless Marriage
People have reasons for wanting less s*x, and there are more possible causes than you can imagine for why a couple ends up in a s*xless marriage. Besides fatigue and stress, some of the most common causes include pregnancy, life adjustments, affairs and as*xuality.

If you feel the s*xlessness may ruin your partnership, you both may want to look back to when it started. Then, you can always find ways to work through it together.

Here are some questions to answer:

Do you feel disconnected from your partner?
Do you feel like s*x lacks intimacy?
When was the last time you and your partner genuinely enjoyed s*xual intimacy?
Do you avoid thinking about your and your partner’s state of s*xual intimacy?
Is s*xual intimacy the last thing you want to think about?
Were there hesitancy and avoidance of initiating physical touch?
Was that due to the fear of potential rejection?
Let’s see some potential factors causing a s*xless marriage in this section.

Lack of emotional connection
Emotional connection is one of the keys to intimacy. If partners don’t feel emotionally connected, s*xual passion will be hard to maintain. A couple’s s*x life tends to go downhill as the emotional connection drops.

If it’s not well taken care of, s*xlessness will rule sooner or later as partners feel more and more distant from one another.

Unresolved resentment
Resentment can be a reason why a couple stops having s*x. After all, it’s difficult to maintain physical intimacy while you’re in a heated argument or silent treatment situation with your partner.

Unresolved negative emotion is also one of the biggest causes of divorce, in which many couples say that s*xual issues as the leading causes. Here are some of the most common factors that lead to unresolved negative emotions:

Infidelity – happens when you or your partner is being unfaithful.
Recurring conflict – refers to a repeated situation of the same problem.
Passive-aggressive behaviour is when you or your partner indirectly address your negative feelings.
Power struggles – are when you and your partner have strong opposing opinions on things that both of you find essential.
Mismatched libidos
Every individual is unique, including in how frequently we want s*x.

70% of women have low libido, and men tend to have a lower s*x drive as they age. Due to physical or mental health issues, we can also experience a change in our interest in s*xual activity. Some may not be interested anyway.

Therefore, you and your partner may have different levels of s*x drive. Suppose your partner has a higher libido than you. In that case, she may experience a change in her s*x drive after her invitation is repeatedly turned down.

Mismatched libidos are one of the most significant sources of problems in a relationship. It can drive a wedge between you and your partner, raise resentment, break trust, and wipe out emotional intimacy.

One of the easiest ways to keep a healthy s*x drive is by living a healthy life. So don’t forget to exercise and eat healthily in your routine.

Low s*x drive
While libido can change throughout different phases of our lives, having a constant low s*x drive is a different story. It means you don’t have much desire to perform or engage in s*xual activity.

Should you have little to zero interest in getting into a s*xy time with your partner, but are interested in having s*x with others, then a low s*x drive isn’t the culprit for your s*xless marriage.

So, do you have a low s*x drive, or you’re just losing interest?

Erectile dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is when a man has difficulties achieving or maintaining an er****on. It's one of the most significant contributors to high anxiety and low self-esteem.

Similarly, health conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and hormone imbalances can also lead to s*xual dysfunction. Should this be the cause for nonexistent s*xual in*******se in your marriage, we recommend that you and your partner explore and find other ways to improve intimacy that doesn't require pe*******on.

Mental health issues
Depression and anxiety are romance killers. A severe mental health condition may cause one to struggle to find the energy for the littlest things, let alone s*xual activity.

Mental health issues are complex for the person suffering from them and the caregiver. More often than not, the partner of the person with a mental illness will take on a caretaking role.

This can damper their intimacy, as mental illnesses can keep couples from maintaining a healthy s*x life.

In her book The Social Organization of S*xuality, Dr Becker-Warner said, “Essentially, the more worried you are, the more it will impact your body, and the less you or your partner will feel aroused or turned on enough to desire s*x.”

Unfortunately, antidepressant medication may cause problems in the s*xual organs, including vaginal dryness and ED. Also, consuming anti-anxiety medications lessens the excitement.

Hence mental health issues can affect your s*x life.

If you suspect medications as one of the significant causes of your s*xless state, ask the doctor to check them out. They may be able to get you a new prescription and minimise the side effects.

Age-related factors
We typically tend to have lower energy levels as we age.

Through time, women experience a drop in estrogen and vaginal dryness. Similarly, older men produce less testosterone and may develop ED. Therefore, we may have fewer and fewer s*xual encounters due to aging.

When you start to feel any age-related issues, coping with s*xlessness can be challenging. The transition can be challenging if your health drastically affects your body's functions.

Children
Being a parent is one of the most amazing feelings. Some may feel becoming one is rewarding as they know someone depends on them and values what they do for them.

However, like any other thing, being a parent comes with several challenges. While your life with children may become more colourful, they may also cripple your s*x life.

Raising children takes much effort, as many parents report stress-related problems during parenthood. Consequently, the child’s presence contributes to lowering the level of intimacy, which is a red flag in the decreasing desire for s*x.

What's more, new moms are still in the adjustment stage due to the following:

Changes in their bodies during pregnancy.
Hormones are getting out of their normal levels.
Soaring levels of prolactin during breastfeeding.
The last point often results in vaginal thinning and dryness, making s*x uncomfortable and painful.

Suppose your s*xlessness comes from this situation; all you need to do is be patient. On top of that, you should also be supportive of your partner as she takes time to adjust to the new role, and her body takes time to adjust to the changes.

Tips to Help with the Situation
You’re not alone if you’re stressed out about recurring s*xless periods. This section will share tips to help you escape this frustrating situation.

1. Determine If S*xless Marriage is Not for You
S*xlessness is more about conscious avoidance behaviour than how often you and your partner have s*x. Hence, it’s essential to have everyone’s say on what s*x means to them. Meaning that you and your partner can always find the s*x best practices for both of you, not what society depicts as usual.

Even if you see nothing concerning about being in a s*xless marriage or if you and your partner decide to schedule a s*xy time quarterly in a year. You can always go for it.

On the other hand, if you feel like s*xless marriage is not for you to the point that not having your s*xual needs met is frustrating and demoralising, you’ll need to bring the issue up. After all, the agreement is one of the most important things in maintaining a healthy relationship.

2. Figure Out Why It Happens and Communicate
Identifying the underlying problems can help you articulate your ideas better if you don't know where to start the conversation.

S*x is only a tiny bit among hundreds of reasons marriage takes a wrong turn. Often, problems with s*xual connection are an outward expression of something more pervasive. And sometimes, the real issues lie well beneath the surface.

For that reason, making peace with your feelings and allowing them to help you restore a healthy s*x life is the best advice you can get.

If you have emotions bottled up, this is your sign to invite your partner to sit down and communicate. If you have insecurity issues, tell your partner that every little acknowledgement and validation helps make you feel better.

Communication is one of the best tools every couple can have to prevent unresolved anger and resentment towards each other. Also, working through the rough patch together can help rebuild your bond.

3. Experiment with Other Ways to Be Intimate
A peak intimacy isn’t described by how great s*x is – the former requires much more than the latter. Therefore, when you feel like your s*xual intimacy is lacking, know that there are limitless possibilities to get connected with your partner without any involvement in s*xual activity.

For example, take pe*******on out of the picture whenever you have alone time with your partner. Now see if it decreases the possibility of having s*x and allows you to find a new way to enjoy the moment together.

That said, it doesn’t mean you must avoid in*******se at all costs. Instead, you can think about it like “if it happens, it happens; if it doesn’t happen, we still had fun”. Just be sure to remember that a s*xless marriage is s*xless, not because it lacks in*******se.

4. Always Take a Caring Approach
If you want to tell your partner you can’t be in a s*xless relationship, avoid all the blaming language, as it will only drive her further away from you.

Communicating your needs and desires to your partner could lead to a healthier, happier s*x life and marriage. Hence, it’s crucial to consider talking about the whole relationship instead of focusing on what you want for yourself.

For this, refrain from using the words always and never. Therefore, rather than saying, “You never listen to me,” try saying, “I think it would be more fun if we ….” On top of everything, be sure to hear what your partner says.

5. Try Open Marriage
Some people, especially those with high s*x drive, can become super frustrated – and feel extremely miserable – by the lack of physical and s*xual intimacy in their marriage. Often, these individuals may consider getting s*xual pleasure from others.

This is one of the cases in which an open relationship can work. However, as the topic is susceptible and can be a significant source of heartbreak, many people choose to sneak behind their partner’s back.

It is not the best step, as the straying party will typically feel intense guilt towards their loyal partner.

Therefore, it’s best that you communicate with your partner if you’ve been considering open relationships. While studies show that it has a success rate of 8%, it’s a much better option than infidelity.

6. Go to a couple of Therapy.
Sometimes, you need a new perspective to resolve your relationship issue. If you feel like you want to get professional help for your problem, going for a s*x therapist is the way to go.

However, note that s*x therapists and psychologists will not dictate how much s*x you should have in a period. They only help you find the best possible way to escape troubling times.

The good news is that a s*x therapist can refer you to the s*xual health department if your problems are physical health-related.

When to Walk Away?
Suppose all your efforts to rebuild your s*xual intimacy don’t yield the expected result – you and your partner still struggle to meet each other’s s*xual needs. In that case, you may start considering ending the marriage altogether.

There is no right and wrong answer to the question.

Any effort and struggles in a relationship should be divided into two. For that reason, as long as you and your partner are on board with fixing your s*xlessness problem and making a healthy s*x life a priority, it’s still possible to save the marriage.

On the other hand, if one of you is considering or planning to get secret extra-marital affairs, then going separate ways can be one of the best options for both of you.

Final Words
There are many factors why a marriage can become s*xless, and we have discussed some of the most common ones in this article. They include a lack of emotional connection, unresolved resentment, and mismatched libidos.

Many couples stay in unhappy, unsatisfying relationships for years without seeking help. We don’t recommend taking inspiration from them as it can open up opportunities for infidelity.

If you’re not satisfied with your current state of marriage, it’s always best to take some time and talk things out as a couple. From figuring out why it happened to experimenting with other ways to be intimate and trying open marriage, you’ve learned several tips to rejuvenate your s*xual desire.

Therefore, if you agree to separate ways at some point, you can walk away from s*xless marriage on good terms.
