Eye contact during intimate moments like sex can be a powerful tool. Looking into his eyes while having sex makes the whole experience way better— it is considered more romantic. When you think about it, you will realize that it does not make sense to look away during one of the most intimate actions in the world. I understand that everyone is different; one might find it loving and romantic to lock eyes during sex, but others might argue that it is overwhelming and would prefer not to. In this article, we will discuss five reasons why eye contact is essential during sex.
Here is the importance of eye contact during sex.
-
EYE CONTACT INCREASES TRUST
One can decode their partner’s feelings for them by studying their attitude during sex, and looking away is not a good sign. Eye contact is an incredible source of information about your partner’s feelings, intentions, and plans. The eyes are the window to the soul. And looking into each other’s eyes during sex indicates openness, honesty, and vulnerability. It also shows interest and sexual attraction between partners.
2. EYE CONTACT DURING BOOSTS CONFIDENCE
Looking into your partner’s eyes can boost their confidence and encourage them to do better. It can also let you know whether your partner is enjoying the moment with you. If the eyes look endearing and locked it means your lover is on cloud nine, which builds sexual confidence.
3. EYE CONTACT DURING SEX IMPROVES ROMANTIC CHEMISTRY
Eye contact makes sex feel more intimate, intense, exciting, and satisfying. It creates a different bond that cannot be expressed with words. It stimulates the release of the love hormone dopamine, and this can improve your relationship.
4. EYE CONTACT KEEPS YOU PRESENT
It keeps your attention firmly on your partner. It prevents your mind from wandering. When you’re present, sex feels more satisfying and pleasurable. But looking away throughout makes your partner feel like he is lying with a stick and makes him doubt if you are present or not.
5. IT STIMULATES SEXUAL AROUSAL
Just like moaning, groaning, and shaking, lingering eye contact can stimulate extreme arousal. It can make your partner feel desired and wanted. Eye contact before sex makes sex even more steamy and hotter. Sometimes, you don’t need to do too much to tell your partner you want him, simply looking into his eyes tells him everything he needs to know without uttering a single word.
It is okay if eye contact feels awkward and extremely uncomfortable for you in the beginning.
Practice looking into your partner’s eyes from time to time during sex, even for a few seconds. I promise that it gets better. Note that looking into his eyes throughout can make things awkward, so try to make it look more natural—one glance at a time. The next time you are enjoying some steamy moments with your lover, you can challenge yourself to look into his eyes for at least 2 seconds and move up from there. So if you want to connect with your partner on a deeper level, give eye contact a try.
