Sexting is great for long term committed relationships! Then your wife finds out and it is all downhill from there.
While sexting may seem like a flirty form of communication mostly used by people looking for a fling, it turns out that those who benefit the most from sending steamy messages are actually in long-term, committed relationships. The study revealed that both men and women reported greater "positive consequences" from sexting in committed relationships than in casual ones. Further, about half of sexters reported that it "positively influenced their sexual and emotional relationships with a partner." Research also shows that those in a committed relationship who sent sexual pictures to their partners reported more positive sexual and emotional outcomes than those in casual relationships.
