What should we avoid?

1. Blaming and criticizing your partner

Maintain a positive attitude when discussing sex, gently propose the direction and behavior you want to change, and avoid criticism. Talk more about your feelings and give more affirmation to the other person. My advice is to talk about some of the things you like the other person to do to you before you offer your opinion, and then after that you offer your opinion.

2. Definitely refuse to let your partner try new ideas.

When you start to try new sexual ideas, you categorically deny your partner, say I won't do it, etc., which will extinguish your partner's enthusiasm and enthusiasm for trying new sexual activities, and may even cause harm to your partner. , destroying the relationship between the two. If you are not interested in it, you can also tell your partner in a tactful way, such as "I'm not sure if it's suitable for me. Can you tell me why you are so passionate about it?"
