Unfortunately the problem with this trend is that it kind of ruins spontaneity and you might feel embarrassed/ sheepish/ lame for implementing this type of thing in your own life.
So, we have a plan.
If you're a clever couple you probably already have a weekly Date Night. (Date Night is when friends, children, family, work, gym, housework, etc. moves to the backburner so that you and your honey have – I really hate this term – "alone-time".) It works for new and established couples alike.
Now, to circumvent the self-consciousness of Planned Love-Making (ja, with serious capitals) and that feeling of "Oh my God we're only doing it on (insert relevant) nights!" we've come up with your weekly Sex Boosting Date Night Plan.
Getting started
Book a night with your significant/casual other. Tell him exactly what the evening will entail. This way you're both committed to going all out and having fun.
This week's theme: Arabian Nights
What you'll need: Candles, incense, blankets, carpets and lots and lots of cushions. Find a spot inside or out to arrange a comfy and decadent picnic spot.
Follow and enjoy this recipe together
Rule 1: Neither of you are allowed to talk about work/ kids/ plumbing/ etc. Even if that means that you have to make small talk.
Rule 2: While you're cooking/ eating both of you must get a chance to mention one thing about your partner that you find sexy.
Rule 3: Have fun. Even if that means being ridiculous. Apply lots of kohl (both of you), speak in funny accents, do a belly dance, feed each other tasty morsels.
Activity:
Tell/read him an erotic story/fantasy. Like Scheherazade in 1001 Arabian Nights.
Sex position:
Choose one of the following Kama Sutra inspired positions:
Sexy Seagull
Rocking Rabbit
Do you think The Plan can enhance your sex life? Will you try it at home? And do you think your partner will be willing?
