If you’re not using a vibrator in your relationship, you should be.
You may remember the good ol’ vibrator as a reminder of your single days but it’s time to bring it back.
Taboos surrounding the use of sex toys are slowly dwindling but one misconception remains. Often people will assume that using a vibrator means your partner isn’t satisfying you in bed but this couldn’t be further from the truth.
There are a multitude of reasons that you should use sex toys with your partner and a number of benefits it will bring to your relationship. Here are three ways using toys will enhance your relationship and keep your sex life, well, sexy.
1. Communication
If you’re looking to spice up your sex life, introducing a sex toy is the perfect way to boost communication with you S/O. Bringing a little buzz (pun intended) into bed is sure to start some conversations with your partner. This is the opportunity to discuss what you like and explore new things. Conversation is key! It’s important to be open and sensitive to each other’s feelings. If you’re looking to shake things up – that alone is a conversation worth having.
2. Intimacy
The experience of bringing in sex toys and learning how to use them can often bring couples closer. You can take turns holding the vibrator and teach each other what feels good. This is your time to ask what you want for in bed. Show your partner exactly what feels good – instruction leads to intimacy. If you don’t know what you like yet, don’t stress! Again, introducing sex toys is the perfect way to explore your pleasure points to find out exactly what gets you off.
3. Excitement
Introducing a vibrator doesn’t necessarily mean that anything was missing from your sex life before! It’s an opportunity to understand what you and your partner like and to try something new. If you find something really works for you, tell your partner and keep the lines of communication open. If you’re in a rut or even a dry spell, try talking to your S/O about why and come up with new ways to keep sex exciting. Go to a sex shop and pick out some toys together, you won’t be disappointed.
