Sex Tip #2

Being creatures of habit, predictable sexual routines are pretty standard in long-term relationships. That's okay until you need some help in jump-starting your desire - or the desire of your partner. That's when changing things up becomes important.

I've posted previously on the value of taking sex out of the bedroom. Starting the action on the couch, in the den, or in the kitchen obviously introduces some variety in terms of location, but it does more than change the scenery. When you have sex in the same place every time, you tend to repeat the same moves and predictable patterns. When you start something up in a new place, it's less likely that you'll fall into the same old routines.

Eroticism is fed by unpredictability. Be sure to keep some surprises in your lovemaking.
