the art of seduction

Evening ladies, it has been a long time since I last came on here but I really need some help.

After a long period of ill health DH and I have finally been given the green light to start trying for a family but our sex life is fitful at best. If I don't suggest it then nothing happens. I have been embarrased by him knocking me back when I have been direct and have tried underwear and different types of outfits etc.

A friend has suggested trying to seduce him but what does this involve? Any hints or tips? I really have no idea how to seduce him!

Any help or advice would be appreciated,

Thanks in advance,
Tigglyxx

Maybe a nice meal and a bottle of wine. How about a nice bath or shower followed by a massage? Keep it pressure free and let nature take it's course. Introduce a bit of humour if you can, make it fun for both of you. Good luck x

If he's got a low libido then attempted seduction might just put him off completely and you will be left feeling ridiculous and humiliated.

If nothing really "does it" for him, I'm not sure what to advise tbh - a man's testosterone is highest in the morning so perhaps try him then? If he can knock you back when you have him in your mouth then you'll know he isn't remotely interested.

You really shouldn't have to seduce your partner for any other reason than pure fun - has he always had a peculiar attitude to sex?

Thanks both.
Malificence: We used to be very active and go for it when ever or where ever the mood took us but we have been together over 13 years and 3 years ago I was taken ill. I had to go on medication that caused me to have severe depression (the tumour meds caused a rapid decrease in seratonin levels and my body didn't cope too well with it). I have changed medication and have finally come off the antidepressants and lo and behold my libido has had a rebound effect (from 0 - 60 in a matter of weeks). I don't know what to do about him though. We aren't the greatest communicators when it comes to feelings and embarrasing subjects.

I am considering seducing him in an attempt to put some life back into our love life. I will try when I think he might be in the mood. I would like it to be fun without any pressure but haven't got a clue how to go about it. He doesn't drink wine and I get home after him from work as he works locally and I have to travel.

Help!xxxx
