Not long ago a poll asked "How often do you think a typical couple should have sex?" The most given answer was 3 times a week, with everyday not very far behind. How does this compare to you and your significant other? Are you falling off the chair laughing because you can't remember if the two of you even kissed today? If you feel you'd like to improve the amount of sensual time you spend with your partner here are a few ideas to help you!
1. Make it a point to go to bed at least an hour to a half-hour before you normally do.
2. If you're a morning person, try getting up an hour to half-hour earlier.
3. On days you have an hour or so lunch or mid-day break, meet each other at home for a fun quickie!
4. When you or your partner comes home, don't speak to them. Just grab their hand, drag them to the bedroom (or stay where you are) and make love.
5. Take showers together. (Lock the door if you have kids.)
6. Order out for dinner and make love before your food arrives.
7. While your children are taking a nap or engrossed watching a movie, steal your partner away and make love.
8. Present your partner with a coupon book good for various sexual acts like: one hour of pure pleasure, oral sex like you've never had before, one fantasy come true, etc. Use your imagination, as well as try to pick things you know you're partner would like. It's amazing how we find time for coupons!
9. Hire a housekeeper to free up "needless" time.
10. Send the kids to the grandparents for a weekend or at least over night once or twice a month.
11. Take a "sick" day from work and spend the day recovering together!
12. Make a date for dinner then after dinner sneak off to a hotel for a few hours.
13. Whenever you're alone together... make love!
How do you find time in a busy life to make love?
Sometimes I like the every day thing, and sometimes I need a break. Three a week is about right.
ReplyDeleteEveryone is so busy these days. Finding together time is sometimes difficult. Worth it though. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, there... Now, to put theory into practice, so to speak...
ReplyDeleteI'm way too old for this. LOL
ReplyDeleteMy Thursday post is now posted if you'd like to drop by.... 13 sisters
Seeing as I'm single at this stage in my life, I have to say the most important thing on your list is making time for each other.
ReplyDeleteHappy T13!
The coupons are a great idea. And they work!
ReplyDeleteI've GOT to have my 'sensual time'! It makes the whole day/week SO much better. :) Happy Thursday! *Hugs*
ReplyDeleteI wish I could hire a housekeeper - that'd be grand. And I (almost) wish we had relatives close enough for me to fob the Munchkin off on a regular basis. Sadly, neither is the case.
ReplyDeleteNow, if I could only get DH to go to bed a bit earlier....
Heh, I enjoyed this list. We do many of these things, including running into the closet to make out whenever the kids aren't looking.
ReplyDeleteGotta make every minute count!

ReplyDeleteLike Adelle, I'd say making time for each other is the big one.

ReplyDeleteI really like #9. Sounds like a good way to talk the man into hiring someone to clean the house!
ReplyDeleteGreat tips! If you don't make the effort sensual time continuously moves down the priority list without you even realizing it. So important to make this a priority. To make the effort.
ReplyDeleteCan you tell this has been on my mind a lot lately :)
FABULOUS LIST!! Definitely useful. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've made notes.
