Sex boost: Old School Romance

accreditation
After reading countless comments and letters in response to many of our sex-related articles, it would seem we’re still a bunch of romantic fools after all. To celebrate that sweetness, we bring you a little touch of old fashioned romance.

Where to begin:

The first thing you should do is to start early. As always with date night, make sure you have the entire evening to yourselves. Book a table in a restaurant you’ve never been to. Buy a new dress. And new shoes. Slip into the underwear you acquired for Moulin Rouge. Invite your lover a few days in advance. Leave a note on his pillow with a promise of what’s to come. Send a small present in the afternoon with a message: “I can’t wait…”

Activities

  • Present your partner with a love letter. But no cheating – it has to be something you wrote yourself.
  • Make a list of the qualities you most appreciate in your lover. Read it out loud.
  • Give your lover an unexpected lingering kiss in public.
  • When you get home, light candles in the shape of a heart around your room and have rose petals strewn over the bed.
  • Put music on and ask your partner for a slow dance.
  • Take a languid bath together and wash every inch of each other’s skin…

    Sex positions:

    Nothing is more romantic than a slow session of lovemaking. Start with oral sex to get things rolling.
    Or if you’re carrying a few extra pounds try hippo heaven.
    Not your style? What about the Reverse Cowgirl?
