Problems in Getting the Sex Life You Want and Deserve - Starting With L

By Levi Reiss

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 lamb, late, and lethargy.

L is for lamb. The way I look at it lamb belongs on my plate with a fine Bordeaux wine and not in my bed, which is also a place for a fine Bordeaux wine. Don't be a pushover. Don't be a lamb. The bedroom is no place for one and half individuals. Be yourself. Make your wants and needs known. You have my permission to complement your bedroom libation with lamb chops if that's your thing. Just don't wipe your hands on the sheets. Or spill any of the precious liquid, the red liquid.

L is for late. Don't be late. Showing up late for a rendez-vous is a way of saying the hell with you, I have more important things to do, better fish to fry. And being late in bed can spoil the fun. Of course, being early in bed can also spoil the fun. They should sell a Jack in the box where Jack pops out five seconds before Jack should be popping or ten seconds before Jill should be popping. Even better, this accessory could have a sliding scale for mutual satisfaction. I can see it all now, Loretta: "Did you buy that great Jack in the box that we just read about?" Larry: "I didn't get to the store before closing time, I was late." Don't be late.

L is for lethargy. I was going to write a bit about the problems of lethargy but I didn't have the energy to get around to it. Don't be lethargic in bed. There are plenty of great things that you can do even if your energy level is flagging. And once you get started you may find power that you didn't know you had. Even without that little pill.

Are you tired of all this negativity? Take a look at our companion series that accentuates the positive.
