Sexual Behavior: Lack of sexual desire


-Library-

Sexuality, sexual behavior, lack of desire, sexual dysfunctionWhen one does not want to have sex, is it because of a lack of sexual desire as sexual dysfunction?

No, not always. Sex implies a deep communication between the partners, and to not live sex happily can be caused by many reasons. It is reductive to talk about lack of sexual desire. Before to talk about sexual dysfunctions it is important to check the quality of the relationship with the partner.

How to understand if the sexual partner is the right one?

Some questions can help: do you feel exited during erotic games? And during tactile stimulations? Do you enjoy touching each other? Do you feel physically attracted to each other? Do you feel comfortable being naked in front of your partner? Do you feel free of talking of what sexual practices you enjoy the most? Thinking about these questions might help you identifying the nature of the problem. Also, anxiety can interfere in the quality of the relationship.

What happens to a couple that can find happiness only during sexual intercourses? While during all the other times during the day they argue?

Arguments and discussions that fill the daily routine are the obvious symptom that something does not work properly. Sometimes it happens that the couple takes refuge in sex, to hide the fact that there are real problems. But to hide behind a fake comfort, over time, leads anyways to the decline of the relationship. Problems, as terrible and painful as they can be, have to be dealt with. Only this way it is really possible to recover the well being of the couple.

Is it true that arguments and discussions in a couple can also destroy its sexuality? Why?

The tensions generated by strong emotions, such as hostility, anger, fear of abandonment, or incontrollable jealousy, can start a sequence of behaviors that destroy in deep the relationship. Often couples do not realize that their relationship produced these emotions, and do not immediately see the destructive behaviors created by them. In these cases it is necessary to see, analyze, and modify these behaviors to break the vicious circle that feeds the problems.
