Make your relationship glow over the holidays!
Wondering what to do with and for your partner for the holidays? You may be thinking about material gifts, but maybe there’s more to sex and love during the winter months. Here are ten ideas for sexy to do’s over Christmas and New Year’s.
- Keep an eye on the holiday party schedule. Say no to parties that feel like obligations and yes to spending extra time with your lover.
- Write a love note as a gift. In it, tell your partner all the things they did for you in 2013 that you appreciated, both in and out of the bedroom.
- Buy a small special gift with meaning for just the two of you, something that only your partner will understand. Give to your partner privately and enjoy the moment together.
- Laugh together. Sometimes people squeeze all the fun out of a holiday. Don’t be that person! Make enjoyment priority one.
- Turn chore time into play time. Trimming the tree? Crank up the tunes. Going shopping? Stop for an elegant lunch as a break.
- Schedule sex. Yes, it takes away from spontaneity. But better to wake up on January 2 with a smile on your face than frowning because you got most everything on your list except intimacy.
- Cuddle. If you are really exhausted and pressed for time, cuddle. I recently heard a researcher state that cuddling raises your testosterone even more than sex. Cuddle enough and eventually you may get in the mood.
- Watch the alcohol. Yes, alcohol can decrease inhibitions but if you drink too much you can have performance problems or simply pass out and miss out on the real deal.
- Get some exercise together. It will keep your mood up, give you time together, and keep away holiday pounds.
- Bring meaning to the season. Talk with one another about what spending time together during the holiday means. Review the past year. Share your dreams for next year.
