When it comes to romping in between the sheets, there are essentially two types of fucking styles; the comfort creature and the thrill seeker. The first one I am describing tends to prefer to keep sex within the comfort of their own home, with one partner, and sticks to a few tried and true positions and routines. These ones are nothing like the people we would see on free porn. On the other hand, thrill seekers are complete opposite. They want new positions and toys, different partners or locations, and overall more sex. So, when it couple is made up of two comfort creatures, or two thrill seekers, they have it easy because they are essentially on the same page, sexually.

But what happens when a comfort creature falls for a thrill seeker, or vice versa?

It is often more common then you think, but most couples don’t realize this until much further along in they’re relationship. This is because in the beginning both partners have been under the spell of a potent neurochemical cocktail of infatuation which is responsible for constant canoodling, which masks any differences in the bedroom.

These hormones can actually mask other differences in the relationship, from how often you like to have sex to whether or not you enjoy public displays of affection. According to Psychology Today, “a person’s inherent need for sensation is not necessarily obvious in the early stages of a relationship, when love itself is a novelty and carries its own thrills-it’s when the sex becomes routine that problems occur.”

Sexual compatibility can have a real impact on your relationship and I’m sure anyone reading this has been there at one time or another! Maybe you crave sex everyday, but your partner is perfectly fine doing it once a month. Maybe your partner likes to talk about sex, while the very word of sex makes the other blush. The question is, are you destined to break up?

Scientists say, not necessarily. The brain is the biggest and most powerful sex organ and it’s completely possible for sexually incompatible couples to have very compatible relationships. Great advice out of the University if British Columbia says longtime couples to rekindle the romance should pretend they are strangers on a first date. Experiment with wigs and different outfits and meet at a local bar. This will be sure to spice things up!
