Sex pressure in relationships can develop gradually, even when neither partner intends to create it. Initiation, rejection and avoidance can become a difficult cycle that leaves both people feeling disconnected. Understanding what is happening can help restore genuine choice, and Relationship Therapy or Psychosexual Therapy can help when the cycle feels difficult to change.
Sexual desire in relationships does not always appear in the same way or at the same time for both partners. For some people desire feels spontaneous, while for others it develops through closeness, affection or sexual contact. This blog explores these differences and how Psychosexual Therapy or Relationship Therapy may help when they cause misunderstanding or distress.
