Effects of not having sex

Q. I’m 22 years old and I haven’t had sex with a guy for 1 year and 3 months. The question is: if you don’t have sex for a certain amount of time, does it affects our attitude or our behavior towards people? Also, how do you know if you feeling a great orgasm?

A. Not having sex for an extended period of time can affect attitudes and behaviors. This is most evident when you notice yourself getting cranky, irritable and feeling unfulfilled because you haven’t had a good romp in the sack. For most people, sexual fulfilment is really important to their well-being. As relaxing as it is exhilarating, sex releases feel-good hormones into your body; it relieves stress and boosts your self esteem, especially when the sex is the kind you’re looking for.

When you aren’t getting any from someone else, for goodness sake give yourself a good Orgasm! The benefits of self-pleasuring mirror those of sex. Bringing yourself to climax helps you discover what sensations feel good. Lots of variety in your practice will be your best guide to recognizing a good orgasm. You’ll become more at ease with your sexuality and tuned into your own body. If you make masturbation a frequent practice, you won’t need to revive your sexuality from the dust when you come across your next sexual partner. Check out our Masturbation Guide and get cracking!
