It may have a profound effect on how happy we are with our partners. Since you\u2019ll be together for the rest of your lives, figure out how well you balance each other\u2019s sexual needs &#8211; or even what those needs are.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s the same reason why talking about different aspects of our health, personal desires and ideals before marriage is important,\u201d says Andrea Tan, a certified sex, love and relationship coach at <a href=\"https:\/\/theathenarising.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Athena Rising<\/a>. \u201cWe each have our own expectations and individual relationships with sex, sexual health, and intimacy, which can\u2019t be aligned without communication and mutual discussion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having these discussions early can help avoid any long-term tensions that may strain your marriage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you\u2019re bonded legally through marriage, you might find it very superficial to exit the marriage on the basis that sex isn\u2019t working. So, talking about sex gives you a great opportunity to share your feelings around sex and your understanding of what sex is,\u201d says Dr Jessherin Sidhu, medical director at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insyncmedical.sg\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Insync Medical<\/a>, a GP+ clinic that specialises in sexual health and intimacy wellness.<\/p>\n<p>Stuck on how to navigate this? Uncover what sex means to you and your partner. Yes, it can be different for everyone. But start with discussing the bedroom activities that tickle both your pleasures. The conversation will only get easier from there.<\/p>\n<h3>Set healthy boundaries and learn how to respect them<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_266833\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-266833\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-266833 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-in-bed-900x643.png\" alt=\"sex before marriage | couple in bed\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-in-bed-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-in-bed-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-in-bed.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-266833\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Anastasia Shuraeva via Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We\u2019re all unique individuals with distinct wants and needs. So it\u2019s natural that you may not share the same sexual desires and preferences as your partner. Working out these differences before marriage allows you to set and respect healthy boundaries for sex.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Jessherin advises couples to understand each other\u2019s experiences of sex, so as to comprehend or empathise with problems that might arise during the act. In Asian communities, where talking about sex can be a cultural taboo, it may not be easy. But a simple \u201cI\u2019d like to share about the sex that we have\u201d can start an illuminating conversation. \u201cYou can open up with a liner such as, \u2018I really enjoy the type of sex we have, and I was wondering what you think about these other things\u2019,\u201d Dr Jessherin says.<\/p>\n<p>This should cover a few things: what you\u2019re willing to explore, your comfort level, and the frequency of sex. Getting on the same page reduces the chances of miscommunication or false hopes.<\/p>\n<p>If talking about sex is daunting, Andrea suggests you can set ground rules. Communicate how much reassurance you need and agree to focus on the future instead of fixating on the past. To ensure your talks remain civil, allow time for a break if things get tense so you can reset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis helps to create a container that you both share, to allow for deeper connection within a psychologically safe space with boundaries so that you both can manage conflicts should they arise,\u201d Andrea explains.<\/p>\n<p>Within this safe space, exploring and navigating each other\u2019s boundaries will be deeply meaningful and enriching to your marriage.<\/p>\n<h3>It&#8217;s about strengthening your relationship<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_266832\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-266832\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-266832 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-900x643.png\" alt=\"sex before marriage couple\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/sex-before-marriage-couple.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-266832\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Ana Maria Moroz via Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Talking about intimate matters requires vulnerability and honesty, which is crucial for any relationship. According to Andrea, couples who have deep discussions are more equipped to transition from dating to an enriching marriage. This results in a tighter bond, more open communication, and greater trust, as each party feels their concerns are taken into account. We know how affirming it is to be seen and heard by the ones we love, so why not give that to your partner?<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, when and how these talks unfold is totally up to you. They&#8217;re truly meaningful only when you\u2019re ready to take that leap of faith. For us, working on communication skills helps. That includes talking about your turn-ons, boundaries and limits. Or even things that bother you outside the bedroom and affect your ability to enjoy sex.<\/p>\n<p>Sex therapists can also work wonders if you\u2019re both open to that. Wading through these issues as a unit with a professional can help foster a healthy marriage &#8211; one that\u2019s built on the foundations of trust and open communication.
