Healthy sex life is whatever works for the two of you

For some couples, it may mean having sex five times a week or doing it only in a romantic atmosphere. Don't look at their example, though. Their relationship is completely different from yours and their sex rules are working only for them. And if you and your partner feel comfortable having sex once a month, then it totally works for you. And remember, the quantity of having sex has nothing to do with the quality of sex in a relationship ;)

Porn may affect your sex life a lot

A lot of couples uses porn as a tool to turn on or even learn some new moves. However, don't think that it won't affect your relationship in a bad way. Porn videos raise high expectations and it's not likely that you'll be able to perform on the same level. Also, studies have shown that the tandem of porn and masturbation actually “reduces the value of intercourse” because it is much more physiologically satisfying than masturbation alone. Though, if you are not scared by this, watching porn together may be also a great way to spice up your relationship.
