Sex. There’s not much better in the world (except chocolate).
Yep, most of us enjoy a bit of nookie when we can get it, but everyone does it differently. We aren’t saying that there are clear ‘right and wrong’ things when it comes to sex, but certainly scientists think there might be.
In fact, they’ve laid out a few things that probably should be done after you’ve finished up with sexy time. So here are five things you probably shouldn’t be doing after sex. Are you paying attention?
1. Neglecting Your Partner
We know, you’ve just had sex, what else is there to do? But actually, there are suggestions that spending just a little bit of time with your partner after sex, either having a cuddle, a little chat, or sharing some closeness, is good for the relationship. Sex isn’t something you just do and then move on with. It’s nice to just ease yourself out of it, and it’s a good opportunity for both of you to debrief on how you felt about your ‘session’ for improvements later on.
2. Checking Your Phone
Phones might be creeping their way into many areas of our lives, but one place they definitely shouldn’t be is in the bedroom while you’re having sex, or afterwards. Sex is a special time, just for you and your partner. Being distracted by your phone, or jumping on it immediately afterwards, doesn’t make sex feel special at all. Try and give yourself a phone free buffer around sex. Put it aside before you start, and don’t pick it up again until an appropriate time after you’ve finished.
