Does sex bring people closer?

I'm still a virgin so obviously i wouldn't really know... But i'm very curious about this and me and my good friends were actually discussing this last week. If you have sex with someone you really like, will it bring you guys closer emotionally? Or will you still feel the same? If you get what i mean lol.

  • It is honestly dependent upon the "person" and "situation". In my opinion sex "only" brings you closer to a person to whom you are already close with.

    If I have sex with a girl, whom I am physically attracted to but don't know well I wouldn't feel closer to her. I'd feel appreciative of her giving me a good time but I don't equate it with love.

    Now if I know the girl well and I've been dating her for a little bit. If I feel that emotional connection to her "before" I have sex then it would bring me closer to her. The important thing though is that the connection is mutual. A lot of people, often women, have sex with a guy who isn't that "into them" thinking they'll get a relationship. But it simply doesn't work like that all the time. If a guy likes you its because he feels connected to you not simply because you're having sex.

    It depends on your mindset though, if you're attached to the person going into the "act" then yeah it'll make you feel closer to them but if you just have sex nonchalantly without emotion then it probably won't change anything.

    • @ A lot of people, often women, have sex with a guy who isn't that "into them" thinking they'll get a relationship. se already said if you are already close does it bring you closer. next to no one believes sex makes things happen... Most people are well aware of the fact sex in itself does nothing. it can only enhance feelings already present between people if they let it. only place i see people saying people think sex creates relationships is n here. its usually guys saying women think this is true. but i never see women saying they think its true. its as if guys want them to think so. anyhow how would you now. if someone had sex with you bc they already liked you and hoped a relationship would happen, it doesn't mean they had sex so a relationship would happen. it means they had sex bc they wanted to AND they want a relationship. the idea women use sex to get a relationship is at the core a negation and an attack on womens sexuality.

  • If both people were already emotionally invested in each other then yes, it will bring them closer together. And even in friends with benefits situations it is common for one of them to develop feelings for the other.

  • if you BOTH really like each other and are open to forging a close bond and are receptive to the sexual experience it could. but it really depends on the circumstance and personalities involved. and you really have to be pen to emotions in the first place.

    you can really like a person but be closed off emotionally then having sex may drive you further apart.

    there re bonding chemicals involved but they ware off in a few hours and you can easily over ride them if you are intent on it by will.

    really depends on the emotional stability of people involved. some people use sex as an excuse to draw distance to someone they actually like. there's no one answer or guarantee. just be sure if you have se its bc you want to. that way if it doesn't wrk out you won't regret anything.

  • Yea, for sure. If you like the guy or are dating him, sex will change your feelings for him in a way that's hard to describe. After he's seen you naked and fooled around with the most private, personal part of your body, you'll feel much closer & intimate with him as a result.

    It's a great thing to have after you've already both discussed what sort of relationship you guys want and have agreed on it. Be careful not to have sex thinking it'll help you hold on to anyone though, as that will rarely work in your favour.

  • If there is a mutual love between these two yeah, it brings you closer. It is the closest point that you can be with him. You share your body your soul your dark thoughts everything. Sex reveals the inner personality that you do not show to everybody. You let him to enter this private area. This is very precious thing.

    But if you don't love or loved, it is not the same. This is rather mechanical, i can not say the same emotion and closeness level.

  • It generally does bring people closer together. They must have some attraction and respect for each other before it will happen.

  • Nope.. understanding & give&take bring peole closer. Sex just an effect of being closer. You are not having if you are not closer, right? Except for 'its a mistake' situation..

  • I think kissing while deep in side her makes me feel

  • You grow a close bond, or you grow a pocket full of cash
