Make a sex date box

Here's a neat idea. Get together with your lover and each of you jot down a steamy date idea on a piece of paper and agree that each time you go on a hot steamy date, you'll pick a card from your special sex date box.

Watch some erotic movies - together

Basic Instinct, Wild Orchid, 9 1/2 Weeks - it doesn't have to be Playboy porn, just something that gets you excited; trust me — he'll get excited simply by you being excited.

Go out and buy some hot lingerie - together

What could be more exciting than shopping for hot lingerie together? By the time you're done, you'll be well in the mood for a hot sex date.

How about going to an adult toy store - together?

Maybe go visit an adult toy store together. Even if you don't buy anything, you're sure to have a lot of fun checking out all the merchandise.

Mix it up with some new sexual adventures

Doing the same old thing over and over again is bound to get boring. You wouldn't watch the same TV show for the rest of your life, would you?

Try something different. Whether you're up for a threesome or interested in the wild latex world of BDSM, the same idea applies.

Be open to new experiences. Venture out and keep it exciting.

In summary

  • Talk with your partner about sex. Really, make a date to sit down and go over it. Then resolve to always talk about it form then on.
  • Check your ego at the door. If your partner makes sex suggestions and you get defensive, then you're missing the point completely. Get over it and put your partner first. You'll be glad you did.
  • Don't strive to get "comfortable" in a relationship. If you're there, break out of it before you doom your relationship for good.
  • Bring the excitement of seduction and the chase back into your relationship - fast.
  • Actually schedule some hot sex dates with your partner. Really.
  • Keep it exciting with some new sexual adventures. Try new things. Open your mind and explore the entire world of sex possibilities.

How 'bout this...August 2nd will be my wife and I's 25th wedding anniversary...

WE only knew each other two weeks when we went to Vegas and got married.

The only thing that makes a marriage work is that both of you have to want it to work.

This is a great article, but there is always more to add to the solutions. Yes, I agree after time the sex life diminishes and you do have to work at it all the time. Marriage is work and so is your sex life to keep it going. There is too much temptation out there on TV, Magazine Covers and so forth. You need to experiment, do things you normally wouldn't do to keep it interesting. People get tired at night after working, taking care of the kids, but put your best foot forward and make the effort. I know my man loves it when I initiate the act because it makes him feel wanted and it tells him I am in the mood. Granted, he can tell if I am not in the mood and it doesn't make for great sex. Help eachother release tentions and relax to get in the mood and most of all make him feel wanted and you'll get what you want most. A great sex life. Don't forget to change it up though.
