02. Off To A Slow Start

Sext It Up 

02. Off To A Slow Start

We've talked about initiating sexting and by now you should be on your way to great steamy texts! By now you have talked about sexting, you've gotten the "oh yes" response, and you've dabbled a little. Some of you might still be trying to figure out how to get things started, that's ok. Today's tip and text ideas are going to get you soaring and deep in this sexting world. For those of you who are old time pro's, stick around, you'll find a few new sext ideas. Let's get you started!!!

Don't let yourself get hung up trying to sound like a phone sex operator, or come up with some erotic fantasy, or become a porn star, that's not you and guess what, he wants YOU! The key is to remember KISS, Keep it Simple, Sexy. 

Set The Mood

First you need to set the mood for the direction you want this conversation to go. Set the mood for the kind of sex you want to have, be it animal passion, kinky, gentle, spicy, hot, or sweet lovemaking, whatever floats your boat! The most important thing to do when setting the mood is to take it slow, don't come right out with dirty talk or naked pictures. Take the scenic route, which is usually a longer but more enjoyable drive. Remember sexting is, after all, just like foreplay, you don't want to rush it, you want to simmer in it and wait till it becomes too much to handle before taking it to a whole other level. 

Start Slowly

Dirty talk doesn't come natural to everyone, luckily this doesn't mean that you can't be a rockstar at sexting! In fact, as most of us have learned, it's easier to say things in text that you would never dare get the nerve to say in person. Trust me your spouse is going to think this is very HOT. No need to dive right in, just slowly dip one toe in at a time and work yourself up to whatever level you are comfortable with. Spicing things up doesn't mean you have to be nasty or crude. All it takes is some simple sexting to revv up the boat! For some helpful hints on talking dirty click HERE.

Theme Scene

Sext Theme #1: Dirty Language...Keep it simple. Emphasize on key words that the two of you would understand such as, "Wanna play" or "Who's your naughty girl?" or "lets do my favorite thing." They will get the hint real quick!

Sext Theme #2: We all love our pet names, right?! Then there's no excuse not to use them along with sexy details. "Hey sexy" or "Hi babe" or "Hi Hottie" or "Hi handsome" are definitely worth using. Add a little bit of sexy detail after them. If you are a little unsure of what to write, pick up a romance novel and see how they do it. Trust me, dirty talk is cheesy, so don't worry about taking a big bite of cheese! 

Come On Home

Sext #1: When you get home Saturday, I won't be wearing any underwear 

Sext #2: I’m aching for you.

Sext #3: Last night was awesome with you, I owe you a kiss.

Sext #4: I have a surprise and I can't wait to show you.

Sext #5: I need you. Now.

Sext #6: I want you!

Sext #7: Roses are red violets are blue. Come home so I can be with you.

Sext #8: I can’t wait to see you, to touch you.

Sext #9: I know you’re busy today, but can you add one thing to your to-do list? Me.

Butter Them Up

Sext #1: Nothing is more beautiful to me than you wearing only the moonlight and my kisses.

Sext #2: I can't believe just thinking of you is making me want you this much.

Sext #3: I can’t tell you how much I love the way you feel.

Sext #4: You are my lover, forever.

Sext #5: Every time I think of you I feel naked.

Sext #6: I can’t stop thinking about your amazing body.

Sext #7: In the deep of the night I dream of your touch.

Sext #8: I’m addicted to your love. I need more.

Get the Action Started

Sext #1: Did you dream of me touching you last night?

Sext #2: I dreamed that I was lying in bed with you last night. We were so close and your skin was hot. I never wanted to wake up.

Sext #3: I still feel your lips all over me.

Sext #4: I just got out of the shower. Thinking of you while I was in it. Now I feel more dirty.

Sext #5: Good night, sleep tight. Dream of me while I hold you tight.

Sext #6: I can almost feel you here… caressing me… touching me…

Sext #7: I love the way we make love.

Be YOUnique

Remember to add your personality into these sext ideas to make it genuine and personal. Keep a little mystery and you'll intrigue him. Don't throw out all the good stuff all at once, give him a chance to respond and let your conversation linger throughout the day. Kick up that anticipation level and your spouse will be anxious to return home from work or that trip away from home.

What are you waiting for, got get started!!!

06. Change The Scene

How many of you do it in the same place, the same way, almost every time? Once you've had a baby your marriage bed just ins't the same after the baby has pooped, spit up, slept, and nursed there. So it's about time you changed things up!!! 

Even though you might love and find tons of pleasure in your sex life, it is proven that the novelty of sex wears off through the years.  This is true with everything in our life, new things start off being thrilling and exciting, once we adapt to the situation and the newness  wears off it becomes ho-hum, routine, and monotonous. 

Shake it up a bit, bring the thrill and novelty back by changing the scenery! Fulfill fantasies, change positions, be daring, try something new, change the music, talk dirty, take a risk, buy a new toy, make your bedroom romantic, and change locations. 

Continue to bring that spark back to your love life after the baby by checking out previous HOT BABY BUMP tips by clicking HERE.

06. Baby Mama

Mother's day will be here before you know it, so start planning an awesome gift for your baby mama!  Your wife deserves to be pampered, romanced, and left weak in the knees.  With this basket you are sure to do all three and more!

Wrapped Up With Love

06. Baby Mama

*Hotel at Home

Don't go crazy emptying your pockets, stay in and create a romantic hotel at home.  Send those kids off to grandma's and spend a weekend with just the two of you. 

You don't need to include all of these items in your basket.  For instance if you choose to have a bubble bath for two, grab one item and attach a coupon for a bath for two to it, and that's all you need.  You can collect the items you need when it's time to pamper her.  

*  Sexy Lingerie

If this is within your budget buy her a new pair of lingerie and attach a note telling her why you find her sexy, when she needs to wear the outfit, and how you are going to thank her!

*  Photo Album

Put a scrapbook of pictures together.  Snap pictures of your wife with the kids.  Below each picture write a caption of why your wife is a hot mom and what she does that impresses you.  At the end of your album take a picture of your hot self and below it have this caption, "This man thinks your amazing, desirable, and beautiful because...."

* Hot Chocolate Bath For Two

Don't just take any kind of bath.  If your wife loves chocolate make a Hot Chocolate Bath.  All you need is cocoa and milk.  Create a dollop of whip cream on the top.  Drop in a few rose petals, lay a few candles around the tub, turn on romantic music, fill wine glasses with bubbly, and you'll make her swoon. Just remember any hanky panky needs to be done outside of the bath or else she might get an infection!  If chocolate isn't your thing, then try a strawberry smoothie, mint julep, or a potpourri bath instead. 

*Massage For Two

Edible massage oils will help you get a little creative.  Massage each other with your hands, your mouth, and your tongue. 

*Dinner for Two

Lay out a fuzzy blanket and grab some cushions or pillows.  Set out the candles, wine glasses, and fancy dishes on your coffee table. If you like to cook and have the time create a yummy meal.  If you don't have the time order carry out. As she doesn't have to prepare it your wife doesn't Your wife won't care if your eating pizza or filet mignon!  Before dinner starts present her with a bill and tip receipt, which will have her giving you kisses and affection during your meal!  

 What are you waiting for get going, start preparing a romantic weekend celebrating your baby mama!!!

07.  No kids Allowed

Make your room a no-kid zone

For those of you without kids this is going to be easy as pie. For those of you with kids, this may sound a little harsh, especially if your room is your children's second bedroom. In order to have a better sex life, you need to take a step away from every day life and focus on each other. 

When you have children you find yourselves immersed in a life that soon seems to be run by those little kids you adore. They take over the house, over your sleep, and over your free time. Before you know it there isn't a space in the house that isn't consumed by your children. As parents you need to hold onto your relationship and set boundaries for your children, allowing them to see that your relationship is a priority. By loving each other above all else you will find that this is one of the best examples and lessons you can teach your kids. Focusing on each other will also help to keep your love life thriving! 

Show your kids that you love each other and need daddy and mommy time by creating a space in your home that is for adult-only activities. A convenient room for this space is your bedroom. Once your kids learn that your room is off-limits you will be more likely to have time and space to yourselves on a regular basis. Your bedroom will become a room that is only about the two of you and will become a haven where you can sneak away for tons of naughty uninterrupted adult time!!! 

Sometimes all we need to get started is a symbol to help remind everyone that your room is now exactly that "YOUR ROOM!"  Take a peek at this adorable "Forever Honeymoon" door hanger sign that will help you do just that --> "Forever Honeymoon" (it's the 3rd row down on the right side :)

02. Expensive Toys

The Pearl Royal

The most expensive toy is $1,000,000!!! With a price tag this high, you're asking if it's made out of platinum?! Why yes, it is and that's not it!!! Why buy your girl a new piece of jewelry when you could buy her something that will bring her a little more pleasure. 

Colin Burn and Nicole Gallus, Australian jeweler's, have created this elegant sex toy called the Pearl Royal. This luxurious toy is covered with over a thousand pink and white sapphires as well as diamonds and pearls. It is cast in solid platinum. The crown is very fitting to the exquisite wealth of this product! Burns stated that this opulent dildo was created for 'art and erotica enthusiast'. 

Now you're going to love this...The pearl that controls the vibration speed can be removed and put onto a necklace-what more could your lady ask for! 

Would you dare use this for your pleasure? Colin gave the ok when she stated that the diamonds are flush with the platinum to make it gentle enough to use! This vibrator brings a whole new meaning to bedazzling!  

Lelo Inez

This is crafted in stainless steel or 18 carat gold.  Lelo is known for the silent toys and their various setting options, no shortcuts for this toy, you will be impressed with the power of this dildo!  It will set you back $7,143.99.  I'm wondering if hard toys are something I need to start looking into!!! *wink

Little Platinum Eternity Vibrator

If this price is a little too steep check out Jimmy Jane's vibrator with diamonds, it will only cost you $3,250.00.  It's made with platinum and ringed with diamonds.  Another one to show off to all your friends.  I'm thinking I would put this in a display case right next to the Pearl Royal!

Little Gold Eternity Vibrator

If platinum isn't your thing, then this gold vibe by Jimmy Jane is the one for you!  At only $2,750.00, you can't beat that! 

Fella's I'm thinking for your next big celebration it's time to put your money where your mouth should be!  Touche' lol

These toys are beautiful and maybe they do the job, as far as I'm concerned you can find something that does an amazing job without taking out a loan!  Take a peek at Grown Up Toys for more realistic options by clicking HERE.

01. Frustrations

 We have all heard these statements (maybe not in our personal lives but in our friends *wink), "I've got a headache" or "I'm too tired, I need to sleep" or "I've got too much on my mind."  Chances are these statements are more true then not, even though people don't want to admit it.

Are we just not interested or do we have too many things in our lives that we are constantly pulling us away from enjoying our partners sexually?  Personally, I'm choosing the idea that we love sex but we are just too busy mentally or physically to fit it in.

Sex Stoppers is going to point out the reasons you are saying no to sex and yes to something else.  Noticing the issue is the first step to making a change. Use these facts to get yourself out of these ruts and back in the sack!

Sex Stoppers

01. Frustrations

Women tend to be sexually frustrated because they are not getting what they need in the sack.  What leads to this?  Women don't like to feel like a "piece of meat" or a "booty call" or a "mounting block". If she feels she fits into one of these categories she is less likely to be turned on for sexual pleasure.  All of these pent up feelings result in lack of satisfaction. A majority of women want to experience more intimacy, more foreplay, more stamina, and more endurance from their partners.

Fix It:

Talk about it, be direct, kind, and ask for what you want!!!  You should be able to talk about your expectations in the bedroom way before you do the deed! If you can have sex, there are no excuses for not being able to talk about it!  When you discover what you want and need, it is important to inform your partner. Sadly our partners aren't mind readers, they need direction and guidance.  As you communicate about your sexual desires your partner will understand what turns you on and what they need to do in order to satisfy you.

07. Oh, I Don't Like That

  Talk Dirty To Me

07.  Oh, I Don't Like That

If your spouse starts saying things that you don't like, tell them! This doesn't mean your allowed to be judgey or accusing.  If you don't like a scenario or word they bring up, just say,

 "Oh, I don't like that word but I love it when you say _______________ (fill in the blank with something you love).  Can you go back to that?  I was really into it."

Swear words are optional.  Some men get turned on if you use them, especially if your not a potty mouth.  Even without swear words you can still talk up an erotic storm without them.

If you are interested in trying new things take a peek at Spank It.

46. Take Control of Your Pleasure

You've seen the movies scenes where everything is hot and heavy, they skip the foreplay and they both reach the peak at the same time.  Hopefully you have learned that the movies are pretend, you can forget what you see in the movies.  Fulfillment and ecstasy require a lot more work.  

Real life statistics: Only about 30% of women reach orgasm through penetration alone.   That leaves a huge number of us that need "hands-on help to reach the big "O."  

Women this tip is for you...It's not solely up to your partner to get you there.  You need to share in the responsibility to meet your own sexual pleasure, it's not fair to leave it all up to him.  When your partner needs an extra hand, provide yours.  Your help will make a huge difference and will help him pay attention to your other hot zones. 

Some women require a little extra help getting there.   Some men would like to help their lady climax more efficiently and more frequently.  If you are in this category check out Grown Up Toys.
