Signs You're Using Sex As A Weapon | 106.7 WTLC

1. If you nag and criticize your partner on a regular basis?you are using sex as a weapon by intentionally dampening your partner?s desire. Generally, women need to feel an emotional intimacy before they?ll engage in sexual intimacy, and nagging works against emotional intimacy. While men don?t need to feel as much emotional intimacy as women, most of them don?t want to have sex with a constant nagger.

2. If you have let yourself go,?not wearing make-up and wearing sweatpants every day, you are sending an unspoken message that you?re not available. The truth is that men are visual beings, and attraction is a visual experience for them. Letting yourself go is also a sign of negative self-talk, so it?s a double barreled weapon in that sense.

3. If you are intentionally, overtly sexual when you are out in public,?you are using your sexuality as a weapon. Being sexy is one thing, but being inappropriately sexual is a sign that you?re trying to use your sexuality to gain power in a relationship.

4. If you keep track of things you want your partner to do?and withhold sex until he does what you want, you are definitely using sex as a weapon.

Sex is an important aspect of romantic relationships. It can and should be used to deepen your connection to each other, and to deepen your connection to yourself. Reducing sex to the status of a weapon virtually ensures that the relationship will end.
