How to Initiate a Quickie in Marriage (Without Killing the Mood)
Dr. Viviana explains:
-
Keep it light and playful. A smile, a compliment, or a flirty look can go a long way.
-
Timing matters. Choose moments when both partners have at least a few minutes to pause and connect.
-
Set the tone. Make sure it feels fun, not pressured—and always rooted in mutual consent.
-
Make it a habit. Quickies don’t replace deep connection, but they can maintain intimacy between longer encounters.
She also shares research-backed health benefits of quickies, including stress relief, mood enhancement, and a sense of emotional closeness.
