For a relationship to work, there must be an intimate bond. If this part is missing, you and your partner may feel less emotionally close. If you cannot feel this close link with your partner, you might start to hold grudges against them, which could cause your relationship to get worse. So, it's important to keep up a healthy love life to strengthen your relationship by fostering stronger emotional bonds and keeping the spark alive. Not doing enough in the bedroom, especially for guys, can hurt their mental health, self-esteem, and confidence, as well as put stress on their relationship.
