5 things you might be doing wrong in bed that drive your partner away

When it comes to sex, many of us don’t realise the things we might be doing wrong in bed.

While one may think that his or her bedroom skills do not have a room for improvement, but their partner might feel the complete opposite.

In fact, one might be clueless about how their ‘innocent’ mistakes in bed are slowly driving their partner away and spoiling their sex life.

In order to take your sex life to the next level, here are some common mistakes that you need to avoid at all costs…

1. Ignoring foreplay
This is one of the most common mistakes people make in bed. Foreplay helps to set the romantic mood and arouse your partner at the same time. Sex is not just about penetration. Foreplay helps to build emotional intimacy between the partners. Hence, sparing some time to kiss, cuddle and touch your partner would make your sex session steamier. Further, a good foreplay session stimulates women and helps in natural lubrication.

2. Getting over enthusiastic
Don’t mistake going wild with being over-enthusiastic or violent. For instance, using your teeth while going down, thrusting too fast, being too rough with his or her sensitive parts or biting your partner and hurting them is not going to drive your partner crazy. The key is to ensure that your partner enjoys every bit of the deed equally.

3. Not returning the favour
Like it takes two to tango, the same applies to sex as well. It is a two-way street and you need to take care of your partner’s needs as well. Don’t make your partner do all the work, and keep their sexual preferences in mind. Remember, both the partners should get equal share of pleasure during sex.

4. Stuck in the same rut
Your sex life might turn mundane with time if you stick to the same set of moves or when there is little room for anticipation. You do not always need to have sex in your bedroom and there are other sex positions besides missionary. Start experimenting with new things, and it might spice up your sex life beyond your imagination.

5. Not using lubrication
Sometimes, a woman may not always be turned on before having penetrative sex. She might not be naturally lubricated. Hence, using lubrication is a win-win situation for both the partners as it makes the penetrative sex less painful for her by reducing the friction and it also enhances the sexual experience.
