Variety Is The Spice Of Life

    

When it comes to the bedroom, keeping your love life alive can sometimes take a bit of work. Sometimes you can feel like you’ve fallen into a rut – or worse yet, like you’ve hit a dry spell! Mixing it up between the sheets can be just what the doctor ordered to put a twinkle in your partner’s eye and a spring back in your step.

Trying New Things
Many times, people get a little nervous when they talk about trying something new in bed. Don’t be! Communication is one of the most important keys to having a healthy sex life, and talking about sex is a great way to get your motor running. If you’ve ever wanted to try something new, whether it’s an outfit, a toy, or something more, bringing it into play before communication could be a giant turn-off to your partner, leaving you both unsatisfied.

Get Schooled
Maybe you’ve always wanted to strip for a partner, but felt too shy or awkward. Perhaps you’ve been curious about pegging, but weren’t sure where to start. Why not go back to school? Picking up an Instructional DVD to watch can be a great way to not only broach the subject to your partner, but also learn some techniques that may otherwise go unknown. Who knows; maybe the dvd will give your lover some ideas of his or her own!

Take the Lead
Sometimes we can be leaders. Sometimes, we’re followers. It doesn’t matter which group you belong to, bringing Leashes into the bedroom can leave you howling for more. Whether you want to pull your lover to attention or drag them down to the floor with you, using a lead could give you that special tug you’ve been craving.

Punish for Pleasure
Everyone knows about spanking during a sexual escapade; it’s almost a stereotypical part of getting some. Sometimes, things need to have a bit firmer hand. Why not take a step away from the bare hand and bring in a special instrument that is made specifically for a bit of punishment? Using a Whip or Crop to inflict some punishment on a lover can be exciting for both of you, and you both may enjoy switching off as you go.

A New Angle
Have you ever taken the time to step back and look at a complex problem that you were having from a whole new angle? Don’t be afraid to take this concept into the bedroom if you’re finding yourself in a dull spot. Bringing a change of Scenery, even if it’s not a change of venue, won’t drive a wedge into your relationship! It may simply bring that much needed new angle to light.

Dress for Success
We all know that dressing up can be a lot of fun. Whether you choose to model a slinky piece of lingerie, some sexy stiletto heels, or a costume for your lover, finding a New Outfit to wear for your partner can be a lot of fun. Why else would sexy costumes be such a big seller at Halloween? Find the outfit you’ve been longing to show off and have a fun and sexy fashion show for each other: the winner gets to watch the loser strip.

Tackle the Toy Box
Remember that awesome thrill when you were a kid and got a new toy you’ve been longing for? You can have that thrill all over again! Don’t be afraid to bring Toys into the bedroom. Some people may balk at the suggestion of having toys used while having sex, thinking they’re just for alone time – or worse, that toys aren’t worth it! These people haven’t had the pleasure of a lover teasing them with a quivering toy, almost to the point of no return. Try it; you just might like it!

Trying something new in the bedroom might seem scary at first, but as long as you have good communication with your partner and go into it with a sense of fun, rather than seriousness, you are bound to find something you’ll enjoy – maybe even being bound yourself. Enjoying your play time with your partner is the key to a good relationship between the sheets, so if things seem a bit bland, it might be time to take a look at what you can do to spice things up!
