Ladies, if you’re not fully satisfying your man in bed, there’s a good chance he’ll kick you to the curb.A new survey reveals that one in six men say that a relationship is dependent on performance in the bedroom, and admit that they wouldn’t hesitate to leave a partner who failed to satisfy them in bed.The UK poll also reveals one in four men and one in five women believe regular orgasms are more important in a relationship than being in love.Even though many people rated sex as first priority in intimate relationships, the survey revealed less than half of survey respondents admitted that they were "very happy” with how often they orgasm, according to the poll conducted by online retailer bondara.co.uk.The survey, which included 3,800 men and women, found that 16 percent of men and 10 per cent of women would end a loving relationship if they failed to reach orgasm with their partner. Another 39 per cent of men and women said that not being to achieve orgasm would be a factor for ending a relationship.While 60 percent of respondents said they were generally "very happy” in their current relationships, only 17 per cent of men and 6 percent of women said the same when asked about the sexual side of their relationship.Tiredness and exhaustion was the most common excuse for why people failed to reach orgasm, with 20 per cent of women and 23 per cent of men citing the reason.  The second and third most common reasons for women failing to achieve orgasm are self-esteem issues and lacking sexual desire.The survey revealed that 15 per cent of men admitted that alcohol stopped them from climaxing and 12 percent were affected by job worries.A fourth of survey respondents felt like they were under pressure to reach orgasm every time they had sex and 27 per cent of men and 69 per cent of women admitted to faking orgasms in the past.The survey also reveals some things that men and women say help them achieve orgasm. Forty-seven percent of women say spending more time on foreplay helps them orgasm. Oral sex hit the spot for 38 per cent of women and sex toys made all the difference for 35 per cent of female respondents.For men, 54 per cent said that oral sex helps them climax, and 43 percent and 42 per cent said that spending more time on foreplay and introducing sex toys helps them achieve orgasm.Sex expert Joanna Coker of Bondara.co.uk said that couples shouldn’t get so "hung up” on orgasms, according to the Daily Mail.
