3. Lack Of Communication

Effective communication is essential for enhancing intimacy in your relationship. Health experts emphasize that discussing new ideas in the bedroom can lead to exciting experiences. You might start the conversation playfully with a suggestive joke or explore new forms of intimacy, like gentle caressing. However, it’s important to strike a balance, as one partner may be less receptive than the other, according to clinical psychologist Karen Gurney. 

If you’re unsure whether your approach is resonating with your partner, have an open discussion about how you initiate intimacy and the frequency of these moments. Encourage your partner to share their preferences and be receptive to any suggestions they offer for improvement.
