Counting down daily ways to keep your relationship sexy and hot # 9

Yesterday we discussed the importance of flirting and foreplay outside of the bed room. If you missed it make sure you check out tip number 10. Today you are going to learn tip number 9 on how to keep your relationship sexy and hot.

Make time to go on a date

As a relationship ages the partners in that relationship start to feel comfortable. The relationship starts to feel stagnant; like it is going no where. It is important to spice things up. Make one on one time for each other.

You did in the beginning of the relationship, so why wouldn’t you have to do the same as your relationship grows? You need to stay connected throughout the relationship cycles everyone goes through; part of staying connected is spending one on one time together.

So whether you are both working hectic schedules, you have children, you are involved in any extra curricular activities, or all of the above and more; you need to find time to go out on a date. I suggest at least twice a month if not once a week.

But the place of the date is just as important as going out on a date. Avoid places that don’t give you the opportunity to talk and places that the primary activity is consumption of alcohol. That would mean movies and bars are not the best places to go. Here are some great suggestions:

• Dinner
• Bowling
• Ice/roller skating
• Walk on the beach or lake shore
• An afternoon sail
• Zoo or aquarium
• Picnic and hike
• Go for ice cream or coffee
• Go for a drive
• Get a baby sitter and have a picnic in the living room in front of the fire place

Start out easy and as time goes on become creative in your date ideas. Try being spontaneous, don’t tell your partner what you are doing and just plan the date. Pick her/him up after work and surprise them.

Yesterday you were asked to try tip 10 for a whole day and hopefully that tip brought some spiciness to your night. Today plan a date for sometime next week and stick with it. Watch tomorrow for tip number eight in keeping your relationship sexy and hot!
