Abstract

Marriage is considered to be one of the most important commitments an individual takes up and couples across the socioeconomic spectrum; wish their marriages to be satisfying and long-lasting. The majority of couples base their dissatisfaction on various factors, such as education, personality, financial condition, fertility issues, family type, and differences in individual goals. Another important, yet lesser-discussed factor is sexual life. Many couples are not aware of the importance of communicating sexual likes, and dislikes, or how they can improve their level of sexual satisfaction. This review evaluates the importance of sexual satisfaction and sexual communication which can result in a strong long-lasting bond between two individuals in a relationship. In conclusion, the review paper suggests the importance of psychoeducating couples about sexual satisfaction and communication followed by the inclusion of appropriate skills that need to be developed for the same during pre-marital counseling; to build a much stronger foundation for marriage.
