JAKARTA - Libido or passion for sex is an important factor in sexual activity. Many consider that the higher the sex drive, the more satisfying the session of intimate relations between husband and wife.
However, the passion of love is not always high, because sometimes it can happen a decrease in passion that often occurs due to trivial things. A number of these things or habits are often ignored because they are considered trivial, even though they can eliminate the passion for sex and interfere with the marriage relationship.
Quoted from the Cleveland Clinic, on Friday, December 19, 2025, the following are some trivial things that can take away the passion for sex, which should be avoided.
1. Often masturbate
Masturbation can actually provide a number of benefits, such as arousing passion and controlling ejaculation. However, if it is often done, masturbation can actually lower the passion for having sex with a partner.
This happens because masturbating too often can reduce sensitivity to sexual stimulation. Masturbating too often also has the potential to affect household harmony and even quality of life.
2. Conflicts with a partner
Conflict in a married relationship is a normal thing. However, if the quarrel occurs too often, it can reduce the desire to have sex with your partner.
"Arguing, poor communication, not taking the time for each other, betrayal, or criticism too often, can create barriers in intimacy and reduce the gap," said author and life coach Jacqueline Hurst.
3. Likes to eat sweet foods
Eating too much sweet or high sugar foods can also affect the passion for sex. Increased sugar levels in the body can make the body feel tired, reducing the passion for sex.
In addition, too high blood sugar levels can also lower the amount of the hormone testosterone, damage nerves and blood vessels in the body, and cause erectile dysfunction.
