Have you become more sexually active during the Covid lockdown?

Honestly, I think the lockdown gave me a chance to really focus on myself. I was so used to the hustle of work, social events, and always running around. Suddenly, everything stopped, and I had time to reflect on what I wanted. For me, it became about self-exploration. I found myself getting more comfortable with my own body and desires. Watching porn, reading up on different sexual techniques, and even trying some new solo activities opened my eyes to areas I hadn't thought much about before.

At the same time, I did have more opportunities to engage in virtual dating. It wasn’t as immediate as meeting in person, but it did push me to be more creative. Video dates became a way to build deeper connections, and I think in some ways it was even more intimate. We got to talk more about our wants and fantasies in a way I never had the chance to before with casual meet-ups.

There were some challenges too. I think the isolation brought up feelings of loneliness for a lot of people, including me. Not having physical contact can mess with your mind a little. But I found that by focusing on my own pleasure and not rushing into relationships, I was able to maintain a level of intimacy, even if it wasn’t physical.

So yeah, in many ways, I feel like the lockdown made me more in tune with my sexuality and my needs. It wasn't just about being "more sexually active" but being more aware and open to exploring different facets of intimacy.
