If
your bedroom action could use a boost, you’re not alone. A whopping 59 percent of men and women say they want to make
their sex lives more playful and fun, according to a new survey released
today by International Communications Research and sponsored by We-Vibe.
But
if most people are craving more excitement in bed, why are we still having
run-of-the-mill sex? Many couples are afraid to switch up a sexual script
that’s working—meaning, both partners are already getting off—says relationship
expert Wendy Walsh, Ph.D., author of The 30-Day Love Detox.
“People learn to play each other’s instruments, and then they go to the same
two spots,” she says. “But you become accustomed to that and you can become
numb emotionally and physically. Then things just don’t work as well as they
did before.”
Take your sex life from meh to amazing with these tips from
the experts:
Stop Faking It Immediately
You probably wouldn’t say you had a blast on your date if it was actually a bore, so why lie in the bedroom? If you want more exciting sex, don’t pretend to like something that doesn’t actually excite you. “You should never fake an orgasm,” says Walsh. “That thing he was doing wrong—he’s now going to keep doing it.” Instead, let him know when something feels amazing, either by speaking up or engaging in some pretty obvious body language. That way there’s no confusion about what you really like in bed. (Also worth nothing: Great sex can exist without an orgasm.)

Ignore Your Instincts
That stereotype that men are the only ones who crave something new in bed is so false. In fact, research shows women are even more likely to want sexual novelty, says Walsh. Satisfy the urge by doing something totally outside your sexual script, like making a sex bucket list, getting busy in every room but your bedroom, having sex before work in the morning, or even heading to a hotel for a distraction-free hookup.

Play Up the Fantasy
So how do you bring up the fact that you want to try a new position or light bondage? “Put the thing you’d like to do into the context of a sexy fantasy or dream that involves your partner,” says sex therapist Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author of She Comes First. For instance, you can tell him you had a crazy-hot dream about shower sex last night or that you can’t get this Fifty Shades-style fantasy out of your head. He’ll definitely get the hint.
Match Your Position to Your Mood So how do you bring up the fact that you want to try a new position or light bondage? “Put the thing you’d like to do into the context of a sexy fantasy or dream that involves your partner,” says sex therapist Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author of She Comes First.

Just like your dates range from romantic to passionate, your hookups should, too. Depending on the mood you’re in, get creative with your sex style, says Kerner. Craving emotional intimacy and eye contact? Go with Missionary. Feel like ripping each other’s clothes off the second you get home? Opt for Upstanding Citizen against a wall. Ready to take control? Hop on top for Reverse Cowgirl. You get the idea.
Put It in Your iCal
We know, scheduling sex—ugh. But even
just giving yourself a mental heads-up can put you in a sexy mindset all day
long. Whether it’s wearing hot new
lingerie all day, getting a wax,
or texting your partner something you’re dying to do later, these little
rituals can act as extended foreplay,
says Walsh.
Dress the Part
Use pop-up Halloween stores to your advantage, and pick up a few sultry
accessories or even a full outfit, says Kerner. Putting on a totally different
persona (whether it’s with a blonde wig and thigh highs or a sexy nurse’s
outfit) will give you both a chance to play out a fantasy with lowered
inhibitions.
Take Turns
Make foreplay more fun by turning it into a giver-and-receiver game, says Kerner.
Decide how much time to spend on each person, and take turns doing whatever you
or your partner wants. Then switch. Bonus: Pleasing your
partner can turn you on even more.
Just Go For It
When in doubt, take the reins. “If you’re a woman wanting more novelty, it’s
great to be a little bold and assertive,” says Kerner. Just slow down and kiss
your partner before changing positions so it doesn’t seem like you’re dissing
their moves. Source You can also read 10 Ways to Make Sex Sexier
