First, please forgive the title. I know it sounds like one of those silly articles in
Cosmopolitan Magazine.
But if the title got you here, please stay a few minutes β you may learn something. I've always thought that picking up one point than enhances your sex life is worth the time invested reading an article. You decide.
If you've come here anticipating concrete tips on the nuts and bolts of better sex, I invite you to read one of my other articles,
Blowjobs for Dummies, How to Eat Pussy Like a Champ or Sexual Positions for Lovers
, for example. In those articles I've detailed where to stick your tongue, where to put your fingers, plus who and what to cum on, or in.
My goal here is a bit different. I've had a lot of feedback email from readers of both sexes, asking how they can improve their sex lives. I should say,
my
opinion of how an individual can improve their sex life. Unless you're one the people in a relationship, you can really only speculate and offer advice. I'm not there in the room. If I were, I'd have my camcorder, a bottle of champagne, a blindfold and some duct tape, then there'd be no questions to ask. But that's another issue.
The point is that in listening to people with similar situations, you begin to postulate on what can really help improve their sex lives on a regular basis; not "get her drunk, bud β that'll help."
What I almost invariably find is that one partner is ready and rarin' to go, while the other is on a different wave length entirely. Women who are dripping, trembling and ready to fuck themselves in every hole with a hair brush, while their husbands sit in front of the TV and when confronted with a teddy-wearing, lust brimming wife, say "not now, honey, I'm watching this program." Or guys...and we know who we are...who seem to have a perpetual erection and defy the stereotype of the bored husband or boyfriend completely. Ready to have sex first thing out of the shower β hell,
in
the shower β against the kitchen sink, over the couch, in the car β anywhere β but are repelled with apathy or excuses. This leads me to my first and perhaps most important point:
Choose the Right Partner
So simple, it's nearly ridiculous, right? I know. If you're married or in a serious relationship, it may be too late - or not. But imagine if you before you made a commitment what you know now. You'd realize that initial passion dies down and what you're left with for the rest of your time together is how deep-seated a desire that person truly has. How much they love
sex
β not just you. If they can't get enough of you and can't wait to fuck β that's great. But many people who make a life-long, or at least long-term commitment based on this first 12-18 months of passion end up...shall I say, disappointed.
You can't change a leopard's spots. I didn't make up this line. My line would be, you can't change a person's desire. You would think that if someone married, say, a supermodel or gorgeous actress, all they'd want to do for the rest of their life was have sex with them ten times a day. Sure β for a while. Then their passion would ebb, and begin to look like the stock averages last year, down...down...down...as they get used to her beauty.
Would that happen to me? Honestly, no. And I'm not just saying that. I may be a rare breed, but I just love to kiss, to eat pussy, have my cock worshipped and sure...to fuck with gusto. Unless she decides to forfeit her lips, pussy and legs, I'll still be interested for good. Will I look at other women? I'm not blind...just nearsightedide. But when I have a woman that remains passionate about, well, passion, then I can be faithful. Hasn't happened, but...
Bottom line: if you've chosen a person with passion similar to yours, you've made a wise β and lucky - decision for life. If you're not sure yet, delay the decision until you are. I can't over-exaggerate the importance of this point, as hard as it may be to hear. With all the things that are important in a relationship; honesty, hard work, good financial potential, surely sexual incompatibility can't be the make or break item, right? Wrong. Why are you at this website? Why are you reading this article? If you don't know in your heart by now that sexual incompatibility is something that will come back to haunt you, you may very well find out via nights of frustration and months of longing at a time.
If you're on the verge of making such a decision, please take these points into consideration βthat's all I'm asking.
You can't have sizzling sex alone (satisfying sex...maybe β sizzling...no). The right partner is the difference between sizzling sex and fizzling sex. Maybe for a lifetime.
Feeling Good about Yourself
How did this point make its way into a sex article? Is this the Oprah show?
When Oprah has a segment entitled "Oral β is giving better than receiving?" then there'll be no more need for my articles.
We're talking about sizzling sex here. Can sex be sizzling, even satisfying, if you don't feel good about yourself, if you lack confidence? I'm not saying you have to be "super confident," comfortable in all situations and the master of all you survey. But I mean enough confidence to know that the person having sex with you, or the potential for it, is one lucky guy or girl! They're not doing
you
any favor; you're enjoying
each other
.
And what does this take? Do you have to be a gorgeous magazine cover girl or fitness magazine guy? Hardly. These are unrealistic expectations for most of us. But if you feel flabby, out of shape, need a haircut, dress like a slob; you probably won't feel sexy.
And this is what a lot of sex is about β your confidence level.
Speaking of Oprah or some of the other talk shows, have you ever seen one of the makeover segments? They take a woman, for instance. Put her on a low-carb diet, such as Atkins or the South Beach Diet for a month. Have her walk around the block a couple of dozen times a day, maybe lift some light weights, and the fat melts off. Then they cut or color her hair, which has been the same style since 1988, and make her up. Finally, they take the sweat suit off and dress her nicely and viola! She's suddenly a
