    DOnt listen to most people on here. Most all they can think of is to break up with him. People dont know how to work things out anymore and then they wonder why one out of two divorces. I dont care what anyone says, relationships require work. People forget that yes, the grass might be greener on the other side at the moment but that grass has to be maintained too.

    Just communicate with him and find out whats going on. Try role playing or if he plays xbox, play with him nude, clean nude, cook nude, honestly you know what he likes and his turn ons more than us. Personally, in my opinion, women focus on themselfs too much and ignore what the guy wants.

    Women want romance, we get it but we like things too in the bedroom. ALot of women do them in the beginning but stop doing them over time but keep demanding us to be romantic. Its a two way street. Im not saying this is the case with you. You just have to relive those nights that were amazing and add new things like role playing, fav sports jearseys, toys (dont get a toy that is 2x bigger than him), rent a porno and watch it together (its actually funny to watch and fun to play), doiing it in public or his work, sexy texts and phone calls, themes, and things you normally dont want to do. Keep in mind, we do alot of things that we dont want to do to please women.

    I wish you luck and hope it gets better.
    Well Said!

    Been with my wife for 12 years and we have 4 kids; so keeping the fire burning is something we work on quite a bit. ;-)

    Play with each other all day, without going very far, get each other worked up, a touch here, a tickle there, etc. Make a rule no going further until later that night.

    Send texts to each other (even if yall are in the same room, etc) giving lurid details as to what your thinking of doing with them. Again, the rule is you have to wait.

    We have found what works for us the best is the anticipation, etc. So make up anything, and just keep it going for a while to make the anticipation keep building.

    My husband is retired Army National Guard and was deployed on our first deployment for both in 2009-2010 but we always kept our marriage alive some way or another. Our 5 year wedding anniversary is in November :) My marriage never have been dull during the 6 years we have been together. Maybe cook a romantic dinner at home if you can't go out before he comes home. Role playing might work!!!! :happy:

    I think alot of people are taking that thread to mean I have a problem in my relationship, which I do not. John and I are very commited and loving, and he and I want to spend our lives together. However, I want some new ideas to keep things interesting in the bedroom department, since we are getting to a more serious time in our relationship. Both of us know that marriage is in the future, and I want us to still have that excitement even after we make that commitment. I think of it not as trying to "save" the relationship, like some think I am, and more as trying to find ways to make it even better :)

    I've been married before, and know perfectly well about the "stale" point. And for anyone out there saying it shouldn't be happening at 10 months, we haven't STOPPED having sex. It's just become more routine, and with both of us being young, I don't think it should be. So, that's why I'm asking for ideas. I want to keep him on his toes and interested, since my sponteneity is one of the things he loves about me, and I always want my man guessing :)

    And yes, I take care of him plenty. He still get's mouth hugs on the reg...haha ;)

    Done and done. Daily, btw. But he doesn't do beer. So it's a sandwich (lite mayo, no cheese, turkey on stone ground wheat) and water haha :)

    He's got fitness goals, and I'm here to help him ;)

    try paying attention to the different person he is today as opposed to the person he was yesterday.

    Now that is also great advise.

    thanks. yours is, too.

    OP:

    i've been with my boyfriend for almost 9 years. every day i fall (incredibly) more in love with him. we all have periods where things seem a little stale, but at the end of the day, i love him more and differently every day because he is a different person every day, the same as i am.

    sex often isn't really the problem with boredom, i mean, at 23 you should be able to get freaky enough, but that may not be what he wants. just ask him. i have found men appreciate a woman that can ask a direct question AND not freak out if the answer isn't immediately what they want to hear. so don't just ask him, listen to him. it may not (and probably doesn't) have anything to do with you.

    It's hard when you're working all the time and living together. My suggestion is to just do something you enjoy together. Make sure you make time to date and do things together than you love to do. Not just sex, but romance. Have fun in the sack too.

    Leather.
    Candles.
    Handcuffs.
    Blindfold.
    Whip.

    I'd have to get very brave lol

    This is brave>??? I must be a f**king super hero...

    LOL - I think I love you a bit!



    I'm going to answer your question with a question: is there something specific you want which you're not doing? Tell him! And after you do that he will probably open up about what he wants....

    Make him food in nothing but a pair of panties and heels.

    I did this once for him on his lunch break and we had "fun" right at the stove. It was a little difficult to flip the grilled cheese with all the bouncing, but I made it work ;)

    Send him texts or emails telling him exactly what you are going to do to him and what you want him to do to you. In detail. If you are shy about it, you can start off using euphemisms. As time goes on, you can get more and more graphic.

    Get some garters and stockings to wear with your corset. Ask him about his fantasies or tell him yours.

    Try to connect with him every single day. Not that your relationship is in trouble at this point, but if you can stay connected, it should never be.

    I've been with my husband for 22 years (married 20) and we have to work sometimes to keep things new and interesting, but we love each other and are willing to do what we have to in order to keep our marriage happy and healthy.

    Boudoir photos? You'll have a ton of fun (trust me, you will) and he will love them. Don't let him see the outfits until you present him with the finished product. :smooched:

    ~ Be waiting for him when he comes home one night .. dressed in one of his shirts, only a few buttons buttoned ... nothing else ... be waiting at the door ... have a really erotic meal cooked and ready on the table with only candles lit as the lighting. Sit on his lap and hand feed him his dinner ... if you actually make it through dinner ... take the bottle wine, strawberries and whipped cream to the bath tub .... and just enjoy your evening as if it were your first time together.


    Btw ... Adore him as if he were the only man in the world ... make him feel loved ... incredible love that only comes once in a lifetime.

    Last but not least ... text messages can be sooooooo playful ! Include a few random pics from time to time, surprise him with whatever it is he would never expect from you ... be the girl he not only loves, but the one he dreamed of meeting his whole life !

    Just a few ideas from an innocent stranger ....


    Yeah ... I'm a hopeless romantic ! :flowerforyou:


    Worked for me. I think I love you now!:heart:
