Yes, it's not just happiness that's a big turn on in bed, negative emotions like fear, depression and fury can do a lot to pump up the passion. Here's a lowdown


Darr ke aage...
There is no denial that that each of us experiences fear of something or the other, and this is the one thing that makes the toughest of us most vulnerable. The fear factor can prove to be a great a catalyst for cosy moments, followed by sensual, steamy ones. That's because fear is one of those feelings that makes one's heart beat like a time bomb, raising the pulse, seeking comfort and putting the senses on a red alert mode. This sensation can be very erotic because of the uncertainty attached with it. An unknown, uncharted territory, anticipation and surprise or shocks are, believe it or not, some of life's greatest aphrodisiacs.

Not only this, fear and sex are deeply linked, even in the healthiest of relationships. Even when sex is great and love is strong, you have the fear it will end, that your lover will leave you, or that one of you will die. This makes you cling to each other passionately, heightening your desire. So go ahead, grab your partner when he/she is in an apprehensive state of mind, and turn the fear into sheer pleasure.u00a0

Depression to desire
If one of the partners is very depressed and the other partner is trying to cheer him/her then, the bonding and special moments spent together can lead to the two being intimate like never before, knowing they always have the other to fall back upon. The comfort, faith and companionship is evident in actions, leading to the ultimate surrender. In such case, all guards are dropped and the partners grow the closest with each other, often standing together against the entire big, bad world, and culminating their 'I'm forever with you' gesture with a deeply intense lovemaking session.

Anger turned ardour
If you've watched a mad Demi Moore throwing everything at her hubby and then jumping into intimate action impulsively in the carnal classic Indecent Proposal, you'd know what we're talking about. Anger is another strong emotion that each one of us experiences frequently. When one is furious, what one really needs is a way to vent out the immense gush of energy, and someone to comfort him/her. So if you and your partner share great chemistry, a scuffle, physical or otherwise, can often lead to powerful passion play, high on lust and raw charm. Take inspiration from the movie Unfaithful, where the bitter argument between an angry, pissed Diane Lane and Olivier Martinez leads to the hot staircase sequence. Turn the tables, turn everything sour into sexy!u00a0
