Whether heterosexual, homosexual, or somewhere in the middle we all want to improve our sex life. Who wants to be alone? We can't offer you an article, magic pill, perfume, potion, or pick-up line that will automatically send you and your intended partner to the bedroom. However, I really do believe that you can perk up your sex life whoever you are.
This article focuses on the problems and pitfalls that prevent you from improving your sex life. Another series focuses on what you should be doing. Both our "negative" and "positive" suggestions will help you get what you want. Here we look at gallop, glutton, and gullible.
G is for gallop. It's not a horse race. You don't have to burn the track trying to bed your intended. And once you are in bed, or wherever you choose to "do it", you shouldn't race your way through. I want to illustrate this point by talking about someone I barely know. I know absolutely nothing about his sex life, and I'm fine with that. I know he has a great place several hours away over crummy, curvy mountain roads. Whenever he goes up there he tries to set a personal best time. Why? Sex is the same, except that there's less likelihood of getting killed. Why bother with a stopwatch or an hourglass? Relax, enjoy yourselves. Let the clock run. Later you may have to make up lost time at work, but that's later. Slow down and enjoy.
G is for glutton. Don't make a pig of yourself. Feeding your face is not the way to find special friends. And frankly, if you have overeaten and I mean really overeaten you may even lose the desire for anything more loving than a hot-water bottle. Needless to say, what goes for food goes double for drink. It's difficult enough to hiccup and make love; it seems almost impossible to vomit and even think about those extremities. Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm too square but retching seems to be about the worst way to meet or keep a partner. The way I see it gluttony is a compensation for a lack of sex, not the way to get there.
G is for gullible. Don't believe everything that people tell you. Don't even believe everything that I tell you - would I lie to you, my friend? And certainly don't believe everything that you hear in the throes of passion. By the way, don't take this advice as a license to lie. But we do know that the truth can be magnified or diminished a bit. As always, don't overdo it. And don't defend against gullibility by refusing to believe anything that you hear.
Are you tired of all this negativity? Take a look at our companion series that accentuates the positive.
