Sex in Relationships

She loved me and I knew it. She was ready to do anything for me. She was willing to even have sex with me if I had requested. As for intense hugging, it was becoming normal. Any thought of going to visit her brought excitement. The thought that this beautiful lady loved me that much was exhilarating. It was dangerous being with her alone in a room or in a car. This is because the level of resistance was low when it came to any attempt to touch and to hold.

The feeling that a gentleman you admired and liked proposed to you is great. You are on cloud nine just because he said the words you have been expecting. You had already fallen for him before he even proposed. Love in relationships is important in the beginning. But this is the time to be careful not to throw your pearl to the wrong or right gentleman.

It is normal today to have sex in relationships without any worries. I meet this gentleman today and we have sex the next day or even the same day. This is seen as normal in the eyes of the world. This is also becoming normal in the church. There have been situations where supposed men in cassock have advised that would-be couples have sex to confirm their readiness for the marriage.

I am not here to tell you about the dangers of premarital sex. Indeed, sex is fun and interesting. It is the highest form of showing love to the one who has qualified himself or herself for that. Sex has also sent many to the psychiatry zone because the other party assumed that by having sex with the significant other, it was evidence of strong love between the two. Meanwhile, the other person was just having fun and nowhere near love for him or her.

How are you sure that having sex with that person is a confirmation of love between the two of you. Some people will push you to prove the love you have for them by having sex with them. Some others have demanded sex as a prove of forgiveness. Some were just overwhelmed with emotions because they were not wise enough. Others were just having fun. They wanted to satisfy their libido and you were the object in sight.

The fact that you had sex does not necessarily mean that the relationship will not work either the opposite. But premarital sex may be a catalyst for mistrust in the relationship. Mistrust can lead to several other issues in the relationship. Some issues in marriages are not just incompatibility matters but may go way back to the foundation for that relationship. What you do at the beginning of the relationship is important. When you start with sex when no real commitment exists, you are building your relationship in the sand. When the storms of life hit the relationship, it will begin to fall because the foundation was a weak one.

Did you have sex before marriage? Are you having sex in your current relationship? Answer the question to yourself.

SEX SELLS BUT YOU HAVE A CHOICE

Many people think that the proof of love is sex. They think that by going ahead to have sex with the object of love, they show beyond reasonable doubt that they love that person. But for a lot of men, sex is just to satisfy their libido especially when there is no commitment in the relationship. So, the mere fact that you slept with that person does not necessarily mean you love yourselves. It is possible that the two of you were overwhelmed with emotions or lust and could not control yourselves.

Therefore, it is important to be aware of what you are doing before you go ahead to have sex with that individual. There is a saying that sex sells. Yes, sex sells, but in relationships, sex does not necessarily sell. You may sell sex and get someone to buy that sex, but it may just be a transaction with no other interests. When you sell sex and get a buyer, the buyer just came to buy what you were selling and when he/she is done with the purchase, he/she leaves the scene for good. When you decide to sell it again, the person may come back and purchase the sex again. You now have sex as more of a business transaction than just the evidence of love and affection.

These sex transactions have sent many young people to mental homes. They never thought they were selling their sex but that is what the other person thought. The other party thought it was just a transaction. So, when mutual satisfaction is achieved and the other person decides to part ways, one is hurt to the core because they thought it was proof of love and affection. So, since you have a choice of who you want to sell sex to, you should be careful and be sure that you have agreed that it is going to be proof of love, affection, and evidence that some forms of commitment have been done.

What do I mean by commitment? The parties must go beyond the rhetoric and act on their words of love/affection to each other. This means that the people involved must follow through with the processes of getting committed to each other. This means that they should introduce themselves to their respective families and do the needful. When this is done, then you are somehow sure that there is some commitment from both parties.

When you have sex after these commitments have been achieved, then you are sure that sex is not a commodity here. Even though some people may go this length just to have you on the bed, most of the time, you are sure that sex is not sold. Sex becomes a commodity when it is thought to be exchanged with love when in fact, it was just an item on the shelf ready to be purchased. Let us keep in mind that sex sells and those who are involved in these transactions know and they will go the long haul to get the sex item as part of their possessions. Therefore you must be careful to who you deliver your sex goods to so that you do not shortchange yourself.

Sex sells but the buyer has a choice.
