How to Put the Passion Back in Your Marriage

By G Thompson

Perhaps you find yourself amongst the lucky couples. You have been together for maybe ten, fifteen, even twenty years. It was hard work, but you made it. Your kids are great. Your house is a real home. You both have dedicated yourself to family and home. There is one thing that has slipped away, romance and passion.Romance and passion use to be there, then you got busy raising children or making that needed money to pay bills. Slowly the romance slipped away even though you still love each other. It was put on the back burner to the pressing issues of everyday life.

How do you get your passion back? First understand it is definitely possible to regain passion and romance in your relationship. How? Together the two of you decide to commit to redeveloping your sexuality as well as, your sex life. I say together because it could be a disaster if the two of you are not on the same page.

Next, the two of you should think about the things you want to do together. Think about trying new things. Now go ahead and do it. Experiment with not only new positions, but also new locations. Maybe you could make love in the back seat of the new car. You don't even need a baby sitter if this is done while the car is parked in the garage.

If you can, plan dates just like the old days. Read sexy stories to each other. This can be great while you bathe together or with candles and wine. Don't be afraid to use sex toys they can open up new thoughts and fun games. Don't forget to share those sexual thoughts and ideas you might have been curious about but never acted on.

More importantly don't forget the game of foreplay. Real foreplay begins from the time you awaken till the time of physical love making. Foreplay can even take place over a few days. It is a little teasing, perhaps a light kiss on the back of the neck, or a stroke through the hair. Use your imagination.If you and your partner want to bring back the love in your relationship remember that all foreplay is not physical. It is that extra act of kindness. It can be that helping hand with something without being asked. It takes the thrill out of it if your partner feels like you are doing any of this with a motive. So no strings attached should be your method of operation.

Sometimes to bring the fire back is just a matter of making each other feel special.When people feel loved and special their creative juices flow and so shall your passionate love life.
