Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Step 1: Make love in new positions.

    Though you may have gotten nice and comfortable in the missionary position, it may be time for some changes in the bedroom.

    Here are some things you can do:
    Reverse roles.

    This may feel funny at first, but you'll love it.

    If you're always on top and your honey is on the bottom, switch it up.

    You'll be more turned on by the change.

    When you make love, make a goal of not having sex in your usual position at all.

    Find a completely new way to be turned on.

    Don't be afraid to try completely new positions.

    Look up positions on the Internet, read the Karma Sutra, or if you're bold, ask your best friend for love-making position tips.

    Be more flexible.

    Vow not to have sex in your bed for a week or two, or even a month.

    Try your kitchen counter, your shower, or even your favorite chair.

    Get it on on your couch.

    Pretend that you've gotten in a big fight.

    Get really heated.

    Yell and throw things around.

    Then have some hot make-up sex.

    If you're a girl, pretend that your boyfriend or husband is knocking on the door to repair a leak, ask you to sign a bill, or just because he's lost and needs directions.

    Invite him to come in for a drink, and take it from there.

    Try on some outfits from the sex store.

    There will be plenty of ideas to get your imagination going, whether you're dressing up as a police officer, princess, or sex kitten.
