Start Your Engines

Monday, June 28, 2010

So we've talked about being out of gas, relationship breakdowns,  being miles apart and needing a detail.  Now it's time to take all of this info and rev up those engines!  Time to get out those calendars!  Yes, I'm telling you to schedule sex!!!  I've stressed how important it is to make sexual intimacy a priority in your relationship.  Today is the day to make the conscious commitment to create time for physical intimacy... the day to put "DOING IT" on your "To-Do" list!  We know all too well that if sex is not regularly planned, the daily routine of life will take over and suck the fun right out of your relationship.
 
Fun?  Yes!  Have fun!  Be silly and enjoy yourself!  Remember that no one is perfect.  Don’t worry about doing it “right”!  Sex should be an enjoyable experience even if every word, movement and connection is not straight out of a romance novel.  Learn more about what is right for YOU and your partner.  Educate yourself about healthy sexual functioning and find new ways to make sex fun, exciting and mutually satisfying for both sides. Give yourself permission to explore your desires and fantasies and then indulge in them!  Have a mid-day quickie, try a new position, use books, videos, toys and unexpected flirtations to discover the many ways to make physical intimacy an anticipated pleasure for both of you.
 
The quality of any relationship depends on how well it meets the needs of those involved.  Relationships are about negotiation and compromise.  Talk, talk, talk!  Communicate your wants and desires.  As for that GPS... Don’t be shy, give directions!  You’ll both be happy you did.
