Make a 'sexy list'
>Make a 'sexy list'. That is an extensive list that you and your partner each make. You put on it what excites you, what arouses you. Be honest. Then you can give each other the list and talk about it with each other.

/>
/>Don't expect your partner to do everything that is on your list. You do get more insight in what you like and what your partner likes.

/>And if you both feel like, then you can every once in a while surprise your partner by doing one of the things on the list.Therapycouples 2 -

Cultivate Emotional Vulnerability
Being emotionally vulnerable with your partner can significantly deepen your connection and enhance your sexual relationship. Emotional vulnerability involves sharing your innermost feelings, desires, and fears with your partner. This level of openness can create a stronger emotional bond, making sexual experiences more meaningful and fulfilling. Encourage open and honest communication about your emotions, and practice active listening when your partner shares theirs. This can lead to a more empathetic understanding of each other's needs, both emotionally and sexually.Philip ✓ 1 -
Prioritize Physical Touch Beyond Sex
Physical touch that isn't necessarily sexual in nature can also play a vital role in maintaining a healthy sexual relationship. Simple gestures like holding hands, hugging, kissing, or cuddling can foster intimacy and closeness without the pressure of sexual performance. These acts of affection reinforce your physical connection and can naturally lead to a more active and satisfying sex life. Make it a point to incorporate more non-sexual physical touch into your daily interactions, demonstrating to your partner that your affection extends beyond the bedroom.Philip ✓ 1 -

It can be that there is a history of miscarriages or an abortion nobody was allowed to talk about. These things can be of influence on how free you feel in sexuality. A therapist can support you in this.
