In modern relationships, many people believe that it is important to test or prioritize sexual compatibility before marriage, and this means having sex with one’s current partner to see whether they will both be able to enjoy sex in marriage.
While this belief or practice may seem like a sensible approach to ensuring a harmonious marriage, it often times poses some dangers to one or both partners in the long run and this practice – that of testing sexual compatibility – could jeopardize the very foundation of a relationship.

Here are reasons why it is unsafe or even dangerous to prioritize or focus on sexual compatibility before marriage.
Firstly, in the long run, sex is not all that matters in a relationship or marriage. One significant danger in focusing solely on sexual compatibility is the risk of prioritizing physical attraction over emotional connection. A marriage built solely on the foundation of sexual intimacy may lack the emotional depth necessary to withstand the trials and tribulations that life often presents.
Secondly, testing sexual compatibility can create (or has even created) unrealistic expectations. This is because there is always a particular sexual style you want your partner to show you or maybe because of your past experience, you are not just satisfied, and so you keep dreaming and wishing your partner to be who or more than what they cannot be at the moment.
In most cases, one keeps having casual sex and jumping from one partner to the other while dealing with the heartbreaks, breakups, or even shame in the process.
It is important to know that intimacy often evolves and deepens over time, and the initial experiences may not accurately reflect a couple’s long-term sexual relationship. Unrealistic expectations can lead to disappointment and dissatisfaction, putting strain on the relationship.
Thirdly, it often leads to a relationship without depth. Relying on sexual compatibility tests might lead to shallow relationships where physical pleasure overshadows emotional intimacy and intellectual connection. A marriage based primarily on physical satisfaction risks becoming hollow and unfulfilling in the long run.
While sexual compatibility is undoubtedly a crucial aspect of any marriage, there are many other things to look for in a partner, many other things that will eventually matter more than sex .
Furthermore, before every other thing, trust and mutual respect should be built. In marriage, it is not just about satisfying physical desires but also about building trust, respect, and understanding between partners. Taking the time to nurture these qualities can create a strong foundation for a lasting relationship, one that extends far beyond sexual compatibility.
Lastly, instead of focusing on premarital sexual compatibility tests, partners should invest their time and energy in talking openly about their desires, boundaries, and expectations. This communication can foster a deeper connection, ensuring a more fulfilling sexual relationship in the long term.
