How to be intimate without having sex

by Diane writer

Created on: April 07, 2011

The magical chemistry that begins a relationship holds it's excitement between two people in the first moments of attraction, the feelings are so intence and love develops, but not all relationships have to turn to sex at this time and being intimate without having sex can be just as exciting if not better as the anticipation of what may occur later in the relationship enhances the feelings. This bonging at the beginning of a relationship and during the relationship is very important to help the couple feel connected and build trust up between them, helping to cement a long and happy relationship between the two people.

Being intimate without having sex is easy and there are many ways to do this, holding hands is the first and most comforting thing as you feel connected and near the one you love. To feel that you have someone close there as you hold their hands and the affection you can feel from holding hands can tingle up your arm and feel intimate. Holding hands in public also shows others that you are a couple and holding hands can help you to bond more and be close without having sex.

There's always the looks too, when your sitting near each other or are in the same room but cannot talk, maybe your in class or in a meeting but the glances that can go between two loving people can speak volumes and be electrifying. Stroking the hair from the face is another intimate gesture or gently brushing the loved one's arm as you lean near, these little contacts with the body can show your feelings as well or if not better than having sex. Contact is important int he beginning of a relationship, these intimate gestures reassure the partner that your still interested and feel the same about them as they do about you. Giving reassurance and putting each other at ease helps any relationship as contact and communication builds up trust and harmony in any relationship.

Cuddling and kissing is one of the best ways of being intimate without having sex, although you may get tempted to take things further holding and cuddling is very comforting and the kissing can become very erotic all in all there is no need to take things further as being intimate without having sex can be lots of fun. After all the thrill of the anticipation of what might be can be better than the actual sex.
