2. Sex
Sex is a vital part of intimacy. You and your partner
might have different sexual needs.
Maybe you want your partner to initiate contact in bed, while your partner
wants to have sex more often.
Talking about what turns you on and makes you feel loved can cut down
on the amount of arguing you do in this important area of your
relationship — in a way that feels good for both of you.
3. Shared responsibilities
Sharing your home space with someone you love can be wonderful and
fun, but it also means having to divide up the chores.
Sometimes it might feel like one person in your relationship is doing all
the work, so little things like unloading the dishwasher can come to seem
like a big deal.
Like sex, your expectations about cleanliness won’t
necessarily be clear to each other until you take
some time to talk about it.
