10 SEX SECRETS to
SPICE UP YOUR MARRIAGE
Secret # 81. Lets just make it perfectly clear up front, marriage
does not assure
you of unlimited great sex. The strength of your emotional intimacy with your
spouse has a direct impact on your physical intimacy. Developing good
communication, sensitivity, empathy and a host of other qualities that will build
your emotional intimacy will require work and determination. Only then does the
truly great sex follow.

Secret # 82. A sexless marriage is not a marriage doomed to
divorce, but it is a
marriage with a serious problem. There are many feelings that occur in a sexless
marriage such as feelings of loneliness, listlessness, confusion, lack of confidence
and others.
They are challenging feelings to overcome, but not insurmountable. It's important
to discover the reason why you and your spouse are no longer sexually active, once
this has been figured out and resolved, other things will fall into place.

Secret # 83. You might find the need to include in your busy
schedule time to
be intimate. Although spontaneity is great, which would you prefer, sex between
two exhausted people, late at night after the kids are down, the dishes are done and
the laundry is washed.
Or perhaps it's more appealing first thing in the morning, half asleep, with bad
breath? Now picture a wife climbing out of a relaxing candle light bath applying
enticing lotions and meeting her husband in bed with a smile and a twinkle in both
of their eyes.
If sex is important, it is worth treating it as a key part of keeping yourself and your
family running smoothly and being sure to include it in your busy schedule. If it's
in the schedule, you'll find other opportunities for spontaneity.
__________________________________________
Secret # 84. A fun way to initiate intimacy is to seduce your
husband. Men
are visual and seducing him in a sexy nightly as you whisper flattering and
suggestive words will heat things up quickly. Tease him, but don't be a tease.

Secret # 85. Husbands, believe it or not, great sex can start
in the kitchen.
Consider helping wash the dishes, taking out the trash and letting her know that she
is appreciated. Exhaustion and sex do not mix...so help her avoid exhaustion and
you'll have many more rewarding nights. Plus, you might be surprised and how
enjoyable working side by side with your wife can be.
__________________________________________
Secret # 86. Remember, sex is not a quick run to the finish
line, take time to
have fun, relax and enjoy the build up to sex. Consider music, a back rub and
cuddling to help evolve to the grand finale.
__________________________________________
Secret # 87. Try to keep your spouse guessing, surprise them
with flowers, a
note on their windshield, in their lunch or brief case. Call them by their pet name in
an e-mail that is filled with code words of intimacy that only they will understand.
It sets the tone for the day, and can continue into the night.
__________________________________________
Secret # 88. Did you know that sex in a loving
relationship has many health benefits? When women have sex
it triggers the release of oxytocin. This promotes feelings of
affection and triggers a nurturing instinct. When men have
sex, it encourages the flow of testosterone and testosterone
strengthens bones and muscles. It also helps transport DHEA,
this is a hormone that may be important in helping the body's
immune system function.
__________________________________________
Secret # 89. Men, did you know that one very
important key to increase your sexual desirability in the eyes of your wife is your
ability to affect her mood in a positive way? Your ability to do this depends greatly
on your ability to communicate with your wife. As you master the ability to get
your wife in a good or positive mood you will master your ability to better
communicate with your spouse and become more sexually desirable.
__________________________________________
Secret # 90. Sex alone will not sustain a marriage relationship.
It's critical
that both partners take responsibility for their part in building a relationship that has
intimacy, passion and communication. It takes a lot of work to balance spontaneity,
playfulness and novelty with predictability to create an intimate framework that
will survive for the long haul.
