Top 5 Tips for Lasting Sexual Bliss

Communicate. Be self confident. Know you’re desirable. Live in the moment. You know all of these tips lend themselves to creating the mind-blowing bedroom experiences you’ve always craved.

But it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of typically unspoken tips so you can keep your sexual bliss up and running, no matter how long you’ve been together. Psychology Today got us thinking about how good sex can be great sex and how we can dig down deep to figure out what might be getting in the way of sexual satisfaction.
  1. Reprogram your mind. Being unable to let go completely during sex – whether emotionally or physically – might be a method of self-preservation. Are you freaked out about vulnerability? Fearful of losing your partner or getting hurt?
  2. Compromise – is it as much fun as it sounds? Bedroom negotiations (done at the right time of course) make people comfortable. But limiting your sexual buffet can leave you hungry, resentful, and bored.
  3. Orgasm isn’t the goal. Plain and simple. Enjoy the sex. Enjoy your partner. Think about your partner. Stop focusing on the climax.
  4. Sex isn’t a football game. There is no playbook that maps out the best routes to go about making a touchdown. Technique can become mechanical – being proficient can become predictable. Are you thinking about how you’re playing the game… or are you thinking about how to gel with your teammate?
  5. Women don't have to play the innocent. Hot sex is good. Women like it. Men like it. But many women hold back in bed because they’re ashamed of their own desire. They may think that “making love” is the only appropriate kind of sex for a long-term relationship. The result of lusty sex shouldn’t be guilt.
