don't know if this has been brought up before or not- kick me if it has *shrugs*

Does anyone enjoy locking eyes when having sex? My husband & I recently started doing it more often and it seems to escalate the intensity and helps (me mainly) cum faster.
Does anyone out there do the same?

gabshu

Yes, definitely very nice. It makes the experience much much better.

Read somewhere that it is supposed to connect the partners better when eyes are locked. Eyes are windows to the soul, after all....

I do that with my girlfriend, it's definitely a good thing. Also, we pretty much always hold a kiss when I enter her.

I enjoy it. My girlfriend is a lights off sort of gal (I'm more of a lights on, but whatever). She has been known to turn on the lights because she needs to see me though... we tend to lock eyes.

I love locking eyes with my girlfriend, she has the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. I could stare at them for hours.

I LOVE to lock eyes with my partner! It enhances the sexual energy and I can actually see the transformation of each stages of arousal straight through to the orgasm. It can be SUPER intense and send me through the roof.
It isn't always possible, but when it is, it is HOT!

I use to like to hold hands and look at one another, it's nice

Seems to somehow IMO make it mean more... ?

Absolutely...more intense

With one of my GF's we were EXTREAMLY close. It was so much more emotional than physical, so much so just staring into each others eyes we'd climax together almost always at the same time. When we were in another position (doggy/etc) it was more physical and it would all depend, but making love missionary together like that was simply amazing.

Then again another GF was always too self concious to look me in the eyes, and would always look away. She was less experienced and had a harder time letting go /shrug

I can't help but smile when me and a girl are locking eyes during sex. It really does bring it up a whole level.

That's one of the best, most instense feelings in the world. It's like there's nothing else in the world but you and your SO.

Absolutely love it and do it whenever possible -- but agree, it depends on if the love making is emotional or sexual at the time.

I love locking eyes, wether it's having sex or just a very intimate moment... it's awesome.

Here's an interesting question- what if your partner had a glass eye? Would you still stare?

Silvy

When I look my girlfriend in the eyes during sex it's way more intense. It is also way more pleasing both physically and mentally.

As said above though, it depends on type of love making.

I'd say that locking eyes is a fairly universal enhancement technique....not only that, but I enjoy seeing the expressions passing across my lover's face, and looking deeply into her eyes whilst we share such an intimate moment never ceases to amaze me.

Amano

i never really did it as a regular thing until my current girlfriend who wanted me to do it from the very beginning, as long as the position allowed it. according to her, she wants me to be "seeing the one who is giving me extreme pleasure"

well, who am i to argue. definitely, i found that it makes lovemaking that much more intense, especially because you communicate so much through your eyes...

:::OshnSoul:::

It is actually a tantric technique, along with holding hands. It really does enhance the whole sexual experience, as well as soul connection, which helps in all other aspects of the relationship- it is an embrace of Oneness.

Minx

I think that it is an amazing thing when you are in the midst of it and you lock eyes with your partner. It brings you so much closer, somehow. I absolutely love it....that and locking hands at the same time.
*sigh*

I love locking eyes during sex. It feels so intimate, I cant help but gaze into his eyes completely...almost the entire time.

Doesn't everyone? I would have thought it would be pretty much instinctive? I mean, not every time, but a lot of the time, yes..

Phoenix

I guess I'm the only one that finds this distracting. I like locking eyes with my gf periodically, I agree about increasing the intensity...but too much looking makes me lose my concentration. Maybe because I know what she's thinking, especially after we've been going at it a while. Sometimes she'll blurt out during sex "are you ok?". LOL god that's the worst. Maybe it's the faces I make, I dunno. But she thinks sometimes I'm not gonna cum or I'm bored...but sometimes it happens where it's more difficult to cum and I do need concentration and if my gf is staring right at me the whole time I can't finish.

taylorspl

I give the psycho stare all the times.

strcrssd

I think every time I've had sex (which isn't that many) I've locked eyes with my partner....It just felt natural....

Unless it's dark. Then it would be unnatural.

KungFuGuy

its kinda funny cause an eyeball is basically just an unchanging spherical object in your skull. pupils dilate and thats about it. studies have more or less gone in the direction in saying that its whats around teh eyes that make people feel the way they do.

that being said i ilke locking eyes to.

SabrinaFair

I love the eyelock, although my SO and I are usually too physically close to comfortably gaze into each others eyes. We usually make love with our arms wrapped around each other, faces buried in each others necks. Description may not be doing it justice, because its extremely intimate and close. But yes....we lock eyes when we can, and definetly a lot afterwards, in that yummy afterglow moment.

I have sex time to time with this gal I have known for about a year. She really wanted me to be her boyfriend, but I wasn't, and am still not ready for that commitment. However, we both have sexual needs that we like to fullfill with each other, so we hook up every 2 weeks or so. She won't look at me when we have sex because she feels that by looking at me she will keep falling for me when we only want to keep it purely sexual. The eye contact signifies that she has more than *just* a physical connection with someone.

I love locking eyes during love making. It makes it that much more special not to mention you get to see just how much your partner is enjoying it.
