I’ve heard that for most women, sex starts long before sex actually starts. There are two things that definitely make me anticipate sexy time with El Fury more.
- Flirting. I absolutely love it when my husband flirts with me. It makes me feel like I did when we are first dating. I get all giggly and melty. It doesn’t take much effort, but it makes the mood of whatever we are doing that much better. Little things like a wink, a pat on the rear or playful banter help us make small connections during the day that turn me on for alone time later.
- Conversation. I love talking to my husband. Especially when I can get lost in our conversation. Most of the time it is easy to get caught up in talking about schedules, tasks, the kids. That’s part of the business of having a family. But, it’s important to talk about other things! We try to find interesting things to talk about that make the conversation exciting. El Fury and I listen to podcasts, or talk about books we are reading. Even if we only get to talk while exercising or going somewhere in the car, it’s very sexy to be interested or to feel interesting.
Foreplay doesn’t have to be physical to get you in the mood. What do other spouses do to connect outside the bedroom?
We love text messaging back and forth throughout the day while we’re apart. Anything from mundane business and shopping lists to funny updates about what the kids are doing to sexy flirting. It’s fun to be send explicit messages back and forth to really prep each other for later. It’s great to feel connected, even when you’re not physically with each other.
