4.An apple a day isn’t the only way to keep the DOCTOR away.

Okay this might be obvi but duuuhh! there are huge physiological benefits as well. When you’re in a trusting relationship, it’s much easier to take the leap and leave the condoms in the drawer (which, depending on your preferences, can feel a lot better). Also the lessened anxiety about possible STDs can drop your stress level and that can allow you to enjoy the act way more!

5.You can go all 50 Shades of Gray.

Sometimes, when a couple has been together for a long time, they either stop having sex on a regular basis or they become apprehensive to try new things. What they fail to realize is that a monogamous relationship is the PERFECT sandbox to explore and evolve sexually. It gives you a safe place and a safe, trusted partner to experiment with. Taking on different roles or sharing fantasies is easier when you trust your partner.

Monogamy doesn’t have to be the place where exciting and passionate sex goes to die. It can actual be an aphrodisiac to your relationship opening new and unexplored avenues of satisfaction. And that’s #bossy!
