Being in a great relationship for a long period of time can enrich your life, but when it comes to your sex life, it can also be a double-edged sword: You each have your moves down pat and know exactly what the other likes. Unfortunately, because you both know each other so well, it can eventually become mundane and boring. And as we all know, routine sex is boring sex, and that is exactly how couples fall into a rut, Kristen Mark, Ph.D., a sex researcher at the University of Kentucky, said to Men’s Health. If you’ve fallen into a rut, fear not. Getting out of your rut can be easily fixed by one thing: talking dirty.
Your brain is the most important sex organ in your body because it’s where your sex drive stems from. Entice and excite your brain by communicating with each other about sexual fantasies you each have, and also what you want to do to each other, which then translates to the physical. Many couples never talk about what they really want in bed, which is a precursor to falling into a sexual rut with your partner. Daryl Cioffi, who specializes in couples, relationships, sex, neuropsychology, and is the owner of Polaris Counseling & Consultingin Patucket, R.I., says that dirty talk is a whole mind and body experience.
