bad sex

We've all been there. You finally land a date with the guy/girl of your dreams, only to realise that the two of you couldn't be less compatible in the bedroom. 

At this stage it's easy to throw in the towel and call it another lost chance, but according to a new study, the first time isn't exactly a great indicator of how good you could be together. 

In a survey of 2,000 Americans, 58 per cent of those in relationships described the first time they slept with their significant other as awkward or terrible. 

The research, conducted by OnePoll and Pure Romance, also found that the majority of us feel anxious when having sex with a new partner, with issues like body confidence and the fear of not pleasing your partner often getting in the way. 

What's more, the study also found that three in ten (33 per cent) people would call it quits with someone if the sex wasn't good the first time round. 

And as for the rest of us, the average person will tolerate four or five bad sexual encounters before breaking things off. 

So, what exactly makes for a bad sexual experience

For men:

  • Not reaching orgasm

  • Lack of foreplay

  • Partner wants man to go down on them but won’t reciprocate

  • Going too fast

  • Erection difficulty after drinking

For women:

  • Lack of foreplay

  • Going too fast

  • Not reaching orgasm

  • Dirty sheets

  • Partner wants woman to go down on them but won’t reciprocate

But all hope is not lost. 71 per cent of those surveyed don't believe that the first time dines the relationship, and agree that figuring out each others likes and dislikes should be a fun and bonding experience. 

If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try (and try) again!

No matter how good your sex life might be, there’s always room for improvement. Let’s face it, both men and women are guilty of mistakes in the bedroom, and we reckon it’s time to get our acts together!

Here are some of the biggest mistakes men make in the bedroom (for the sake of equality we’ll be covering errors from us ladies too, don’t worry!)

1. Skipping the best part
Now, we admit that in the heat of passion sometimes you just need to rip off your clothes and get to it, but usually, foreplay is required. Not all ladies can have an orgasm from sex alone, so sometimes we need a little extra help. Lads, if you want to get us in the mood, don’t forget the most important bit!

2. Not grooming your man-garden
Look, we have gone through a lot of pain and struggle to get these smooth legs and this very presentable bikini line. Hair removal is pretty much a full-time job for us. So why must you insist on going au naturel down there? A little trim is all we ask… thanks guys!

3. Rushing things
Sex isn’t a chore on our to-do list that should be rushed through as quickly as possible. Unlike dentist’s appointments, doing laundry and hovering, sex is something we actually look forward to and take pleasure in! So why rush it? It’s not a race. There’s no standard length of time that sex should last, we know, but at least give us time to get into the swing of things.

4. Being a tad predictable
We agree that wild acrobatics mightn’t be necessary on a normal Tuesday night, but every so often it’s nice to change things up a little. Just because we enjoy a certain position doesn’t mean we want things the same every single time. Don’t be afraid to try out something new!

5. Forgetting about oral
For most of us, oral sex is a sure fire route to an orgasm. So if you want to please us in bed, don’t neglect it! Many men simply avoid oral sex because they’re not quite sure what to do. We promise, you can’t go too far wrong!

6. Assuming we’re done too
Here are the facts: it’s just not as easy for women to reach orgasm as it is for men. Unless you’ve gone all out to help us along, it was just another “good but not GREAT” event for us. All it takes is a little bit of effort to turn so-so sex into mind-blowing sex.
