There are several reasons why some couples become interested in sex after a heated argument with their partner.
Full of intense energy
When “fighting” with your partner, you are filled with intense energy, which then quickly shifts to a feeling of euphoria when the fight calms down.
Your body is flooded with endorphins and in that state, you feel passionately passionate. That makes for really good sex. You should definitely expect wild kisses and rapid breathing.
Making love afterward almost feels like the relationship has received a major boost of energy.
Fear makes sex hotter
An argument feels like a threat to your relationship when it’s at its climax. And that evokes the “flight or fight” response in everyone. Some couples grow apart after a fight while others find more intimacy.
The reason is because at that time they feel afraid of losing the relationship and a common reflex is that they will want to hold on to their partner more tightly. Of course, the best choice to hold on to your partner is sex.
You know everything will be okay in the end
Healthy couples don’t fight to bring each other down, but to resolve things. Once the air is clear, the lovemaking that follows almost feels like the relationship has received a major boost of energy.
All the intense drama you’ve been going through seems to subside and you feel that your love is strong enough to endure all of it.
Love is more sublime when one of the two takes the initiative to make up
One of the reasons sex after an argument is so intense is because we are in an extremely disturbed state of mind. Our emotions are rushing by like a bullet train and we can’t contain them all.
So when all that excitement spills over into sex, it leads to a feeling of extreme urgency. We are not in a basic state of calm, instead we are agitated or stressed. Therefore, having sex after an argument can make both people feel more intense and passionate.

Reduce stress
Author of the blog “Sex and Psychology”, Dr. Justin Lehmiller told Punch newspaper: “Sex after an argument can help couples reach the finish line faster.”
You can sulk after an argument or you can choose to have crazy sex and reach orgasm boom. Logically speaking, the second option seems much better.
The more a couple conflicts, the more they crave closeness
Testosterone, cortisol and adrenaline are all hormones that spike when you have an argument with someone, including your partner. When cortisol is released from stress, your body and mind crave the intimacy that only sex can bring.
This means that when these hormones are released during intense conflict, they may make you angry, but soon after, they will help you calm down and feel satisfied.
Explore the depths of your soul
Having sex after a legitimate argument with your partner can open up a deep and primal part of your soul. It brings relief and also creates excitement.
You go from being threatened to feeling successful in overcoming the threat. You feel like you’ve overcome something big and your body celebrates by getting excited.
Anxiety and irritation
Both of these increase heart rate, breathing, and blood flow. The excitement from one of these emotions flows into another.
When you feel stressed from an argument, your sympathetic nervous system becomes aroused, filling you with energy and making you even more motivated to want to take a physical action in a certain way. somehow.
Traumatic events including intense anger and arguments with a partner can sometimes arouse sexual feelings. And because of this, you will feel excited when arguing with your partner.
