** SPICE UP YOUR LOVE-LIFE by Graham White **
----------------------------------------------------
We work at
developing almost every area of our life before we think about doing something
to develop our love-life.
I used to joke
about married sex when I worked as an entertainer at weddings. In the
classic song "Strokin" by Clarence Carter, the line "How long
has it been since you've made love?" is asked. I'd tell everyone to
take a quick look around, "Notice all the married people looking for a
calendar while all the singles are looking at their watch!"
Marriage brings
stability and routine, and that's a good thing. It can also bring
repetition and boredom. This often takes effect with the married
love-life first.
After you've been
married even just a couple of years, everything else seems to take priority
over the bedroom. After you have kids well, "Sex, what's
that?"
Make a commitment
to have a date night at least once a month. You've heard it before, but
decide it's important and set it up. Once a week is even better, but you
can work up to that over the year.
Don't just do the
same thing every date, and don't make it something like a movie where you
don't interact. Find activities that the two of you do
together.
- Go for a walk.
- Go out to a lounge.
- Go roller-blading.
- Go dancing.
- Go shopping for
lingerie.
- Go to a spa.
- Go swimming.
- Play a game.
- Go out for a fancy
dinner.
You can send the
kids out and take the phone off the hook if you're feeling like money is
tight, but keep your date and make sure you do things to spice it up!
- Treat it like your
first date where you're trying to impress!
- Shower and shave.
- Wear something
stylish, something sexy.
- If you're hitting a
hotel, pack your essentials.
It's your date, it's your
fantasy. You can take turns planning it if you want. Agree that
which ever one of you designs the date gets to plan there fantasy.
- Role play! You
can each be someone different for a night.
- Pilot-Stewardess
- Teacher-Schoolgirl
- Two strangers at a
bar
- Biker-Biker Babe
- Newlyweds
- Honeymooners
- Rock star-Groupie,
- If he normally calls
the shots, she can be in charge!
- Novelty:
- Bring
exotic food to the bedroom
- Rent a sexy
movie
- Wear some wild
lingerie
- Begin making out in a different part of the
house
- Have an extra glass of
wine
- Bring feathers, ice
love lotions or anything else your
imagination can dream up!
You only live once! Make the
most of your life and don't forget that your love-life is one of the best
parts!
Talk to your spouse about setting up
your monthly Date Night tonight! Who knows, the discussion may lead to a
hot date itself!
