Max, its quite normal for there to be at times, a mismatch in desire between sexual partners. Difficulties can arise if the mismatch is particularly large, or if communication in expressing ones needs is impaired. Your relationship is relatively new, a period where you are still getting to know each other sexually. Good communication, compromise and an understanding of one’s partners different needs goes along way to settling any potential problems.
Unless non-consensual or unsafe, sex in fact confers many health benefits. These include relief of stress, cardiovascular workout, deepened sleep, boosting of immunity, weight loss, heart protection, pelvic muscle strengthening as well as the health benefits of being in an intimate relationship.
