From Fizzle to Sizzle

What do you do when marital sex feels old-hat and boring? How can a couple rejeuvenate their sex life?

My best advice to take you from fizzle to sizzle in the bedroom is to surrender your inhibitions to each other. Verbalize the things you want. You and your spouse might be thinking the same thing but you'll never know until you talk openly. People often feel afraid to engage in something others may find kinky. They feel too shy to say, "I want to try THAT" in bed. Think of sex like walking into a Baskin-Robbins. You've got your classic flavors (your regular routine positions). You already know which of these you like. Before you order up the usual, take a look around. There's a colorful display of flavors, toppings, and sauces. There's sherbert, ice cream and yogurt. There are even cakes, pies and frozen dessert bars. Instead of the plain old chocolate cone, why not order a "boom chocolacka-lacka" and really tantalize those tastebuds?! If you try something and you don't like it you don't have to do it again. In fact, you don't even have to finish doing it the first time.

The point is, sex is something that can be as creative and exciting as you want to make it. So spice it up by sharing your ideas with each other. Allow yourself and your partner to think outside the box. The rules are, as long as you two are in agreement, there are no rules. You may find that the things that make you blush often bring the greatest rush!
