No More Sex In Your Relationship?

Here are Three Tips to Set Your Bed Afire Again

It happens to the best of relationships: the fire fizzles out sometimes. Sometimes it can be due to hormonal shifts, pregnancy, lack of communication, or just being too comfortable. Couples who have spent a lot of time together may find other ways to be intimate. Those times together that don’t involve sexual intimacy are important, but sex is also important. If you and your partner haven’t had a romp in the sack in a while, consider some of these tips for getting the groove back in your relationship.

Be Realistic

The first step in rekindling the fire in your relationship is to be realistic. You won’t have sex every day, five times a day like you did when you first got together. Find ways to get sexual intimacy back in the relationship, but don’t be unrealistic in your goals. Take baby steps in your journey toward a newfound sexual intimacy.

Try Something New

If you want to get the fire going again, the trick is to try new things. If you guys are pretty traditional, consider nontraditional sexual play. Go to a sex toy store and pick out some new gadgets. Try oral sex, anal sex, or just a new type of foreplay. Talk about what you both have wanted to try, and give it a try. It will give you an opportunity to have something to look forward to like the good old days.

Build Up the Anticipation

Building up the anticipation is another great way to get the fire going again. Send sexy emails to your partner at work. Text messages work well, also. Leave notes and sexy pictures in his lunch sack. When you build up the anticipation, that gets your partner riled up and ready to go by the time you see one another in the evenings.

These are just a few things that you can do to get the engine revved back up again. Talk to your partner about what they want out of the relationship as far as sex is concerned. You may be surprised and even titillated at their answer.
