How to know if you are making love or just having sex

Date:

People might wonder, “Is there a difference between sex and making love? Aren’t they the same?” The truth is that while both the acts include the connection of bodies and flying of erotic sparks, sex and making love are very different.

The difference lies in the state of mind of the two individuals engaging in the act. While sex is a basic biological need for every man and woman, making love is an art. Unlike sex, making love is not goal-oriented.

Here are three big difference between love making and having sex:

The level of commitment: When you’re committed, there is a clear difference between making love vs having sex because commitment can make the experience very romantic, as opposed to just having sex with someone without any feelings attached.

Intimacy in unattached relationships: Intimacy in unattached relationships often qualifies as sex. You could either be in a no-strings-attached relationship or in a friends-with-benefits situation. A no-strings-attached relationship is the opposite of a committed relationship

Making love vs having sex can be determined by the act itself: When having casual sex, people are more selfish and tend to care about their own pleasure rather than spending time pleasuring the other person. One of my friends once told me that, “If you are wondering what’s the difference between making love and having sex, ask yourself how many times does your partner make an extra effort to pleasure you? If the answer is rarely, then you are most likely having sex and not making love.”
