Illicit Encounters surveyed 2,000 people to find out the things they can’t stand when it comes to sex – and the things they wish their partners would stop.
Finding out what your partner likes in bed can take time, and most people have to gain a certain level of trust before they’ll discuss their intimate desires.
But it can be more obvious when you stumble across something your other half really doesn’t like.
New research has found the ten things men and women hate most in the bedroom, and they’re very different.
IllicitEncounters.com , a dating website for married people, surveyed 2,000 people to find out what they really couldn’t stand between the sheets.
According to men, the biggest mistake women make is failing to initiate sex with 64 per cent wishing their partner got things started more often.
They also hate it when women want to have sex in the dark, and faking an orgasm is third on the list.
For woman, the biggest no-no is when men skip foreplay and rush straight into the main event.
Second is having an orgasm first, followed by being clumsy and crude dirty talk.
IllicitEncounters.com spokesperson Jessica Leoni said: “We find that what drives people to have an affair primarily is a lack sexual satisfaction at home.
“The key reason why both men and women are fed up with their partners is because they are not prepared to change and keep making these fundamental mistakes in the bedroom.
“If you avoid these simple mistakes there is less risk of your partner cheating.
“And you have a much better chance of pleasing a new lover if you do decide to cheat.”
