Question: What constitutes as good sex in a long term relationship?
This is not TIP per se but I like your honest answers on this board. I have always been curious as to what others view as good sex. I have had 5 partners in the past.
This is my second long term relationship and while the sex was fun and amazing at the beginning after 2 years it's not as exciting. We live together and average around 1 time per week. Not a lot of foreplay but we always include oral in the routine. I am satisfied but not sure if we need to improve and make it more fun.
I think I am watching too much sex and the city reruns!
So spill the beans! What is good sex to you?
Thanks!
Re: Question: What constitutes as good sex in a long term relationship?
I don't know. I feel like if you have to ask, you're not having it.
I think generally, good sex is satisfying in quality and quantity to both partners. The specifics depend on the couple and vary widely.

The answer to this is completely subjective based on the person. Are both you and your partner happy with your sex life? If not, then you need to work on that as a couple. If you are, but are comparing your life to Sex and the City, you may just have unrealistic expectations to live up to fictional characters. Base your opinion of your sex life on what you and your partner feel.
What is satisfactory to you and to him mutally is a satisfactory sex life.
If you want more sex, more foreplay, less this or less that, you need to tell him. Communication is key.:)
Research suggests that the best sex is had between same-sex couples in loving long term relationships. Probably because they are the most generous with one another (loving long term relationships), and understand each other the best (same-sex couples have some natural advantages when it comes to understanding one another sexually, and time does too).
Good sex to me is passionate. that make you shake when its over sex. Hair pulling, put you straight to sleep after its over. When he takes his time over every inch of your body.
Also surprise sex is amazing too..keeps the spice alive.
I've had good sex with people I wasnt in a relationship with, but the great sex is the kind that comes from someone that you're in love with.
oh. and when he makes sure you get yours before he gets his, bonus points if you come together....lol ^.^
