As time flows and relationships mature, sex tends to lose novelty. There is a lot to be said and heard. But, communicating effectively around sex and intimacy often feels difficult. Isn’t it? 

Read here some ground rules for initiating a meaningful and satisfying sex conversation. 


#1. Choose an appropriate time for the conversation

When you are talking there should not be any interruption. This may mean switching off the phone or putting the kids off to bed. Canoodle your partner and tell him/her what you enjoyed the most in the act. There is no need to inquest each and every session, but a bit of feedback would not hurt.



#2. Always speak in the first person

Say 'I think' or 'I feel' rather than starting a sentence with ‘you’. When a sentence begins with ‘you’, it sounds accusatory. Naturally, in such a scenario, your partner is going to defend himself/herself.



#3. Learn to handle rejection
