Would you say your sex life was exciting?

Just wondering if everyone is still "innovative" and "exciting" after a while with same partner or do most fall into same-old positions and only between the sheets?

Bought a few books recently but just cannot imagine making the change IYSWIM!

DH not bothered about sexy underwear etc. or different positions.

i love mine we have been together 5 years.

maybe your dh would be bothered if you just moved him iyswim?

We do pretty much the same things, but love it!

HaventSleptForAYear · 10/06/2008 19:57

Now unsure what to do with all these useless books?

Told DH I was getting them, he is waiting to see results but I feel too silly and there's nothing in there that really does it for me...

will this be the month??!!

the excitement nearly kills me... [droll]

Less frequent (would go so far to say I have to dust myself off beforehand )

But of a far superior quality than pre-children

How about writing some porn and seeing where your brain takes you? Might show something that you weren't conscious of before

HaventSleptForAYear · 10/06/2008 20:02

Oh sorry Teuch... Guessing boring is better than nothing then...

Hmm, that's radical (for me bratnav).

Have to think about it!

what were the books

i am in a new relationship and i think enjoyable rather than exciting i am too lazy for exciting

the only thing i would lkike to do would be not be as silent but i jusdt cant change lol

Teuch · 10/06/2008 20:04

Sorry, I was kidding!

How about reading the books together - even a giggle about how ridiculous some of the suggestions are can produce some intimacy or help you feel less inhibited.

Then you also won't feel like it is for you to 'produce the goods'..TADA!!!!

bratnav · 10/06/2008 20:07

Just a thought Haventslept, but it is something that can't shock you too much as it would be in your head somewhere already. Maybe just start with a couple of words that spring to mind rather than attempting a magnus opus of filth

bratnav · 10/06/2008 20:08

Oooh and get him to do one too and you can swap

HaventSleptForAYear · 10/06/2008 20:10

Books - Ok [trys to remember].

A couple were for me (5 minute orgasm, good girls guide to sex... or some such, can produce actual links if pushed...).

Because I am not v. relaxed in bed and can't "let go" but would like to...

Got one Black Lace erotic short story one which is good, although a couple of the stories are really full-on.

The one for "both of us" was "Sinful Sex" by Pam Spurr.

Problem is, DH is French and so would find reading the book hard-going. Could try and persuade him.

Although he is quite happy with our sex-life so I feel it is up to me to "spice it up" (don't like that expression - cringe).

I have a cobwebs need I say more?

HaventSleptForAYear · 10/06/2008 20:11

Oh - just remembered I got a Tracey Cox card game and haven't got round to using it... must dig it out.

meanwhile DH is digging the garden despite promises of a hot date on the patio (would make a change from bed)?
