So I am trying to figure out some new ways to spice up me and my gf relationship she has been acting like she isn’t into sex anymore ik she still loves me so what are some ways I can make her want to have sex?

If this is a sudden thing, my first suggestion is to talk to her about it directly. There might be something deeper going on than her just not being in the mood. If there’s a bigger issue going on, trying to encourage sex and not acknowledging a relationship problem will only make things much, much worse.

But if you’re certain that your relationship is stable and that there’s nothing going on with her, with work, family, friends, etc. Then let’s talk about your sex life.

In the words of Jerry Seinfeld, “The basic conflict between men and women, sexually, is that men are like firemen, and women are like fire. To men, sex is an emergency, and no matter what [they’re] doing [they] can be ready in two minutes. Women, on the other hand, are like fire. They’re very exciting, but the conditions have to be exactly right for it to occur.”

Sex for women doesn’t happen with a snap of your fingers. It’s not just about the body, it’s about the mind as well. Which is why you can’t think about just how to make her want sex, you need to think about improving ALL aspects of your relationship, ESPECIALLY the non-sexual aspects. It’s about the perfect storm. You need to have everything aligned in order for your sex life to be at its peak.

Also, women need sex to be worth it. Women will always choose cuddling or an early night over a mediocre sexual experience. It’s like, why bother? Why go through the trouble if all they’re going to get is something lackluster? So you need to make sure it’s worth it. Make it exciting! Get her excited about it! If she’s excited about sex, then she’ll be the one jumping on YOU. So, in order to sexually motivate your girl, you have to work on making sex exciting for her so that she considers it a priority over running errands or getting an extra hour of sleep. How? Here are some tips:

Be spontaneous. Whether it’s surprising her with a home cooked meal and setting the scene with candles and music or just popping up somewhere to give her flowers and a quick kiss before leaving. Spontaneity is the best way to spice up your sex life. The key is not to think about SEX while doing these things. You want to improve the romance and get back the spark in your relationship. When you have that, sex naturally follows. Don’t make the mistake of “finding ways to have sex”. Work on your RELATIONSHIP. Do nice random sweet little things for her throughout the day. They don’t have to big huge, grand gestures. Little things often mean so much more than elaborately planned events. Believe it or not, something as simple as sending her sweet texts to show you’re thinking about her or getting her favorite takeout without her having to ask, or cleaning for her, or giving her a handwritten love note will go a LONG way to help your sex life. Show her that you care. That’s a huge aphrodisiac. There’s nothing better than to feel loved, wanted, and cared for. Plus, by being spontaneous, you have a better chance of getting her out of her own head and freeing up her body to relax and be open to arousal. One of the biggest roadblocks to sex for women is their mind. They think too much and get distracted too easily. If you catch her off guard, you have a better chance of keeping her focused on sex rather than have her thinking about all the other stuff she has to do. Keep her in the moment. Try talking dirty to her! Tell her what you want to do to her. Make sure she’s REALLY there with you. 🙂

Show affection without expectations. Women know when you want to fuck. You start with all these little touches and not-as-subtle-as-you-think gestures and we know it just means you want to fuck. That’s not a bad thing. The bad thing is when you show affection ONLY when you want sex. So show her affection without any ulterior motive for sex. Kiss just to kiss. Compliment just to compliment. Hold her hand, give her a massage, kiss her, little touches, etc. Do all of that WITHOUT any thought of sex or attempting to take it any further. It’s a great feeling just to have someone want to be affectionate with you without EXPECTING anything to come of it. It will put her in the mood for later!

Talk about sex. Work it into the conversation at an appropriate time. Maybe describe a fantasy you have or something you want to do to her. The idea is not to have sex right after that, but to get her mind working. It’s like foreplay without even touching her. Get her THINKING about sex and have her thinking about it during the day. The best thing is if she reciprocates and tells you about her fantasies as well. This leads to better communication and, of course, better sex! Describing scenarios and fantasies will awaken your senses and help you better understand what she wants. If you understand what she wants, she’ll be much more eager to have sex.

Dress decently! Don’t be a slob. Actually take some time to think about your appearance and the clothes you’re wearing. Don’t wear wrinkled crap, make sure you actually match, try layers, and an ironed button down with the sleeves rolled up to your elbows is sexy as helllllll. Maybe you should even take a trip to the mall to get yourself some new clothes! Well dressed men are extremely attractive and draw attention. So if it means taking an extra 5-10 minutes to get dressed, do it. If you start paying more attention to how you dress, it will have an affect on her. If you look good, you’ll feel good, which will make her feel good, which will help your sex life!

Foreplay. Anything can be foreplay. Something as simple as stopping to hold her waist and kiss her neck and stroke her back before moving on to do whatever you were doing before.  PAY ATTENTION TO FOREPLAY. PROLONG FOREPLAY. All those little touches and little moments that you make a conscious effort to be affectionate with her will help put her in a more sexual mood. It’s all about warming her up. And when you’re in bed, take your time, touch her everywhere EXCEPT the “main” places. Men truly do not understand the value of foreplay for women and how it affects a woman’s sexual experience. Foreplay is what will define whether or not the sex is good. You could lose the game before you even start…

Hug her. Yep. That’s it. Find ways to just hug her really tightly, hold her and make it last for at least 30 seconds. Why is this important? Well, hugs are nice! Who doesn’t like being hugged by someone they love? It’s a great feeling. Also, when you hold your girlfriend like that, it produces oxytocin (particularly for women), which is the hormone that facilitates trust and a sense of sexual connection and desire. Turn your head into her hair, breathe in deeply, let her know that way that you just like holding her, being near her, touching her. You want to have an easy going, comfortable, tactile rapport with your girlfriend. Hugs, hand holding, touching, etc. Like I said, it’s not about sex, it’s about intimacy and creating the desire for sex.

Notice her time of day. Does she prefer morning sex, afternoon sex, or sex at night? Does she like having sex after a work out? Does she like it on the weekends? When she’s feeling her best, that’s when she’ll want sex more. So when does she feel her best? Paying attention to WHEN she’s in the mood will help increase your chances in the future to capitalize on those moments!

Tease her in public. It’s exciting, a little bit dangerous with the possibility of being discovered, and it’s a way to show her that you’re craving her. Be covertly “inappropriate” while out in public. Ie, while sitting across the table from friends, talking about something inane, slide your fingers up her thigh and just around her underwear line. Do this for about 15 seconds and then remove your hand. Do a couple of these in a night and she’ll attack you as soon as you walk in the door or even as early as the car. 😉

My boyfriend wants to see me with another girl and he wants to join with us. Im not sure how to go about finding another girl. I want to be with another girl for him. I’ve always been curious about being with a girl.

Do you have a friend who knows a friend? That’s usually the safest way to go about it. I don’t really like the whole idea of “picking up a stranger in a bar” for a threesome.

Are there any girls that you’re acquainted with (not REAL friends) that you’re attracted to? Who stands out to you? You said you’re curious about being with another girl so what girl are you most attracted to? Someone will come along. Not gonna lie, it’s tricky when you’re not already in the same circle of friends, but you can make it happen.

It’s a matter of finding someone you like (both of you), someone you feel comfortable with, and then that person needs to have a certain mindset that would indicate that they’re open to it.

Oh, and drinking helps…a lot. 😉

Not really a questionm just feeling lonely and wanting to share. I have a huge crush on my neighbour, whos also my classmate in graduate school and friends with my ex-almost-girlfriend. And I know shes up there right now with her girlfriend (yeah I get, it its… complex), she even asked me if I wanted to go grab a burger with the two of them, but I just had 0 interest in being 3rd wheel today, and in getting to know her GF. So I just go on tumblr and see all stuff you posted… sigh

Wait it out. Be her friend. Get closer to her. You never know what might happen in the future so don’t hide from her.

Obviously, you don’t want to hang with the gf too much because that’s just unnecessary, but make an effort to get alone time with her. Maybe the more time you spend together, your crush will start to dissipate. Or maybe something else will happen… Either way, you like her. So work on your friendship. If it’s meant to happen, it will. 🙂

And try not to get too down on yourself. It’s a sucky place to be in, but you’re not going to be there forever… I can promise you that.

In the meantime, imagination is a girl’s best friend! 😉 (A vibrator helps too…)

Okay so I’m bisexual but at the same time I feel like I’m a lesbian cause I only like doing stuff with guys I don’t get feelings for them even remotely but this girl likes me and I just really like her and I’ve never felt like this with a guy like I realllllyyyy like her does it seem like a lesbian? I’m just confused and need advice…

You like being with guys and girls. You’re attracted to guys and girls.

You FELL for a girl.

That doesn’t mean you’re a lesbian. It means you fell for SOMEONE. It just happened to be a girl that you made your first real connection with. It was either going to be a guy or a girl – 50/50 chance there. You’d probably be panicking about being straight if this was reversed.

This doesn’t mean you won’t fall for a guy in the future. Male/female – it doesn’t matter. You made a connection with someone and you should take advantage of that because connections like that are rare, we don’t find them often, so when we do, we need to do everything we can to enjoy it and immerse ourselves in it to the fullest.

Whatever happens in the future will happen, but what does it matter? Are you suddenly going to stop being attracted to boys because you’re dating a girl? You’re going to declare yourself a lesbian and then your sexual attraction to the male gender will just magically disappear? It doesn’t work that way! lol. You just happened to form an emotional (as well as physical) connection with a girl first. That’s all.

Stop worrying about the lesbian/bi/straight bullshit. The older you get and the more people you meet, the more you’ll start to understand yourself, and you won’t be so concerned about being exactly “this” or exactly “that” anymore.

The world is not black and white so stop trying to put yourself in a box that doesn’t make sense. Focus on this girl and all these new feelings you’re experiencing. Nothing else matters. Be with her. Be happy! 🙂

So I’m 21 and currently living in California to study, me and this guy has been dating and he asked me if I was a virgin, I told him that I first had sex when I was 15. He seemed very shocked at this and later that week he broke up with me. And there’s been rumours that I’m a whore fatet that. However the age of sex is 15 in Sweden, was it wrong of me to lose my virginity that young?

That’s ridiculous! 15 is young, but certainly not unusual. I don’t know what his problem was. Be glad you’re rid of him because he’s obviously an asshole. I don’t even understand how rumors got started because of THAT. It’s so absurd… He clearly has some issues and they have NOTHING to do with you.

No, it was not wrong of you to have sex when you were 15. As long as it was your choice and it was what you wanted. I do think it’s on the young side and I always advise people to wait a little longer, but you did nothing wrong! Don’t for one second feel ashamed just because some uptight dickwad tried to put you down. It’s your life and your choice and it certainly does not mean that you’re a “whore” or any of that BULLSHIT. You had sex when you were 15. SO WHAT? Who cares? You’re 21 now. It’s all in the past.

You did nothing wrong so please don’t ever let people like that guy (or anyone else) make you feel like you did. They have no right to judge you and you shouldn’t give a shit about what they think (because what they think doesn’t matter).

YOU matter. What YOU think matters. That’s all you have to worry about: you.

To be honest, I’m really scared to have sex with my girlfriend. I’m really self conscious about my genitals. My labia is CRAZY uneven. Sometimes I personally enjoy it, but I get scared that she’ll get freaked out by it. I’ve had sex before but it was meaningless and I was drunk. Any advice to get over the anxiety and fear?

Pussy confidence. You gotta find yours.

Longer labia means more sexual pleasure for you so OF COURSE you enjoy it. Tell your girlfriend that you feel insecure about it. Be honest and let her know how you’re feeling. She’ll understand and she’ll reassure you that she’s not at all freaked out. There’s nothing to be freaked out about! Everyone’s pussy looks different. If she knows you’re feeling weird about it, then it’ll won’t be the awkward “pink elephant in the room”…or awkward pink vagina in the room…

Just come clean, be honest about your insecurities, and realize that there’s nothing weird about your pussy! You like it! So everyone else should too! If they don’t, then you’re not dating the right people! Best thing to do is lay your feelings out on the table so there’s no doubts, but always remember that YOU have to accept yourself first before anyone else can.

So find your pussy confidence.

I don’t get excited about sex anymore. I’m a female & when my gf asks me to talk about sex or we have sex, I just don’t feel like it or sometimes I can’t even talk about it. I love her & I think she’s incredibly attractive, so there shouldn’t be an issue. What’s wrong with me?

After being in a relationship for a long period of time, things start to stagnate and become routine – especially when it comes to sex. Both partners have to put a little effort into spicing things up, changing up the routine, get yourself out of the rut. Try having sex outside, someplace semi-public, try out a different toy, a different position, get massage oils, surprise her with a quickie out of the blue. Just anything outside the norm for what you usually do together.

Do you masturbate? Is it your libido that’s waning or is your desire for sex with your girlfriend waning? If you think about having sex with someone else, does that excite you? If yes, then this a relationship issue. You may love her, but you may not be in love with her anymore. Finding her attractive and BEING attracted to her are different things. Sexual attraction often fizzles out in relationships and it’s just not meant to be. Like I said before, if that is the case, try a little harder. Get yourselves out of the rut, try harder to have sex. Often, once you start (even if you weren’t in the mood) you get into it as the foreplay goes on. Sometimes you need a little jumpstart. If that doesn’t work and you’re still masturbating on your own, then this is a relationship you need to really think about.

However! If your answer is no, and sex with anyone or anything sexual doesn’t interest you in the slightest, then maybe this is a libido issue. If you’re not interested in sex, at all, with anyone, then maybe there’s something else going on. A number of things can affect your sex drive. I can’t possibly list them all, but I’ll mention 3 of the most common ones and hopefully this will spark some ideas for you and lead to some introspection.

1) Are you overwhelmed in your life? Has there been a change with work or family that maybe just has your head somewhere else?

2) Do YOU feel attractive? Have you had any changes in your body where you might feel less sexy/less attractive?

3) Are you taking any psychotropic drugs? Ie. antidepressants, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, benzos…  Those have a HUGE impact on your sex drive. Many of those medications basically erase any sexual urges.

My boyfriend and I have been trying to have sex for a long time but we can’t because the condoms won’t fit? Don’t get me wrong, is not as if he has an extremelly big or gigantic penis, it’s actually pretty normal, but the condom won’t come down and he says it is just so tight it hurts. Maybe he has a fat penis or I don’t know. lol. We know the right side to put it and the way it should go, we just want to be confortable and find a condom that will make him feel good and will make me feel safe.

Condoms are not one size fits all. It’s really common for guys to have trouble finding the right fit. Have you been experimenting with different condoms to find a better fit?

Here’s a size chart that should help you get a better idea of what you need.

Another common mistake is that you THINK you know how to put it on correctly, but you don’t. There are some really basic mistakes that everyone makes so don’t be embarrassed about that. Read this to double check and make sure you are doing everything correctly.

So I have a boyfriend.. But lesbian porn turns me on so much. I want to try kissing a girl and “stuff” but I don’t want to loose my boyfriend. I have a couple lesbian friend and I want to ask them if I could try with them but I don’t how to. And I don’t know if its right. Should I go ahead behind my boyfriends back or is that cheating?!

Kissing someone else when you’re in an exclusive, monogamous, relationship is generally considered cheating unless you have different parameters in your relationship. If he made out with another girl, would you consider that him cheating on you?

If yes, then yes, messing around with other girls behind his back is cheating.

If you want it badly enough, talk to him about it. Ask him if he would be comfortable having an open relationship. You can set rules for it. Honestly, that rarely ever works out, but you can always try.

I, personally, would break up with him and explore my other needs. You’re young, you’re not married, there is no real commitment here. The fact that you’re on this blog asking me about it shows how much you really want to try something different. It also shows how things are just not really working in your current relationship. It doesn’t mean your boyfriend is a bad guy, a bad boyfriend, or that you don’t really care about him. It’s just not the right relationship for you if you’re seriously contemplating messing around with other people.

It’s scary to leave someone when you feel comfortable with them and you care about them. It’s scary risking being alone for a while. For most, it’s easier to be with someone than it is to be alone, even if it’s not exactly what you want in a relationship. That’s normal and completely understandable. However, when it comes down to it, you’re settling for less by staying with him. And you’re not doing him any favors by staying with him while thinking about other people.

Would you want him to stay with you if he was thinking about other girls and wanting to have sex with other people? No. Why would you want to be with someone unless they want you and only you? That’s the whole point of being together.

Gender is irrelevant. It’s the act itself that defines cheating.

My personal advice? End it on the best terms possible and do what you need to do for yourself. Do not mess around behind his back. Either break up or give him full disclosure on what you want. Because if you start doing stuff behind his back, lying to him, it’s a betrayal no matter what. And you can’t have a healthy relationship that way.

so me and my boyfriend have been doing “hand” stuff, and whenever he really gets going, it starts to hurt a LOT.& not a hot type of hurt. like OUCH STOP hurt. and i dont know why. so, every time we “hook up” he gets off and I don’t because I always make him stop and I’m left feeling like I put in a bunch of effort for nothing returned. I’m still a virgin, so maybe its the fact that my cherry hasn’t been popped? i dont even know if it has been or not… idk what to do. i feel so unsatisfied.

Do you masturbate? Does it hurt when you use your fingers on yourself?

If the answer to the latter is “no”, then he’s doing it wrong. You need to work with him and take control, tell him what to do, what feels good, because he is obviously not experienced and doesn’t understand what he’s doing.

A lot of younger, inexperienced guys think they can just ram their fingers away, but that’s the opposite of what you want. Start off with him just rubbing through your underwear. Get yourself really wet and worked up just from that. Hump his hand. Don’t even go for penetration. Work on making that step feel really good. Then you can work up to having him massage you with skin on skin contact. If you’re finally starting to get what you need from that, have him use lube and ONE finger to slowly, gently go inside you, while focusing more on the clit.

You need to be the one to teach him what you like. It’s not fair that the amount of sexual satisfaction is unbalanced, you have every right to be just as satisfied as him, but for girls, we have to open up and take more control over the situation because you cannot leave it up to your boyfriend to know how to do it.

If he doesn’t try harder and listen to you when you tell him what you like, then that’s a serious problem and you may want to rethink your relationship with him. Unfortunately, I’ve experienced some real assholes who purposely do a bad job of fingering because they don’t want to put the work in. If they “suck” at it or they hurt you, then you’re not going to keep asking them to do it, right? It’s fucked up, but that is the reality for some people.

Hopefully that’s not the case with your boyfriend. So just try to work with him. It should NOT be hurting like that. So either he’s doing it wrong or there’s a rare possibility you have a medical issue. (I really think he’s just doing it wrong.)
