To tell it straight, sex is important in a relationship, however, it is not the only thing. If your relationship is all about sex and nothing except it, then maybe you need to relook at it all. If your relationship is a perfect balance of all other things and sex, then you are on the right track. Physical intimacy is synonymous with quality of life. Good sex will boost your bond with your partner, and strengthen emotional connection.

Sex Reduces Feelings Of Insecurity

Healthy sex on a regular (not necessarily daily) basis helps in reducing the feeling of insecurity in both partners in a relationship. It is a known fact that a feeling of insecurity is common in any relationship. Sex ensures that your partner is really into you in spite of all those small tiffs that you keep having.

Sex Creates The Scope For Many Other Things

When your sex life is going good, you can actually discuss and talk about more things with your partner. Sex no longer remains the undiscovered area that you two would be wondering about. Communication is improved with a healthy sexual relationship with your partner.
