What Can Ruin the Sexual Mood?

Even during the wildest foreplay or intercourse there are disturbances that can turn a person off. Check out what can ruin the sexual mood.

Sexual mood can be ruined because of noise 

Satisfactory intercourse requires a great deal of concentration. Noise coming from a neighbor’s apartment or the next room can be very distracting and it can quickly ruin our sexual mood, especially if you have intercourse in a place where you are not completely alone, or you are expecting your parents, roommates, or anybody else to come home at any minute.

Women particularly love to panic when they hear any unusual sound during sexual intercourse. Even though they might find out later that it was only the dog scratching on the door because it desperately wants to go out of the apartment, this is enough to bring the partner’s libido back to square one.

To prevent this from happening, choose a room where you will have more peace and privacy and find out in advance how much time you have before someone might show up and disturb your intimate moments. This will definitely ease the tension and calm your partners a bit. 

Various pictures in the apartment can easily destroy the sexual mood

The pictures of your parents, siblings or other family members on your wall or on the nightstand are a good way to feel close to your family when they are a long way away from you, but they can be distracting during intercourse and it can easily ruin the sexual mood. 

Many imagine, when looking at the photo of your father or mother, that they are being watched or are getting some dirty looks and this can cause the libido to drop. Something similar can happen out of guilt because you are doing it in your parents’ bed, while they explicitly told you that no one should enter the bedroom.

It is the same with animals. Many people lose the desire to have intercourse when they see a dog lying by the bed and looking stupidly at what these strange human beings are doing.

You can easily avoid this by doing it in a room with no pictures, or if you cover the pictures or turn them in another direction during the action. If this is not an option, try dimming the room, which will make things less visible. Leave the dog and any other animals outside the room and spare them the view of your sexy games.

Taking a phone call will surely ruin your sexual mood

Any telephone sound can throw your partner off balance, let alone if you answer the phone. Even though it is an emergency, many people do not understand this, or to put it better, their sexual mood does not understand it.

So, mute the phone during intercourse. If it does not bother you, that does not mean it does not bother your partner.

You will ruin the sexual mood by going to the toilet 

We all have needs and the need to empty one’s bladder is one of them. It is definitely not sexy if you go to the toilet just when you are about to start the last phase of sex.

Before getting intimate, better go to the toilet and get rid of those last few drops and bring the action to the perfect conclusion. Trips to the toilet can cost you an orgasm because the partner’s sexual mood can diminish quickly because of it.
