6. Healthy Competition = Great Sex.
A fight often sparks a little competition between the two of you. “Competition gets your juices flowing,” explains Levkoff. “It gets you pumped and ready for something physical. It’s also a great mental release to have this huge fight, then connect physically. It can create this huge sex drive.”

7. By the time you’re done, he’s forgotten about the fight.
According to the American Psychological Association, women hold onto anger a lot longer than men do. So, if you know you’re in the wrong, having passionate makeup sex might distract him for long enough to make it all go away.

Now, as great as it can be, makeup sex shouldn’t be so desired that arguments are caused just to get some! “Couples who argue just for the sake of having make-up sex are merely looking for a high to keep their connection hot,” says Josey Miller, Love & Sex Editor for iVillage.com. “Forced passion is just that: forced. It isn’t real. And it certainly won’t last.” But while it lasts, it sure can be fun.
