Are You Wasting Your Childbearing Years?
Sex is very bonding to a female. That’s our biology. Once a woman has sex, hormones flood her body, flood her mind, leading her to perceive that the relationship is meaningful. This phenomenon is one of the reasons a woman might stick with a relationship that’s not going in the direction she wants or anybody should want!
