It doesn’t have to be Valentine’s Day for you to want or need a little romantic time with your partner.

After being together for a while it can be hard to keep the spark bright, but it doesn’t have to be as hard as you might think.

START WITH A ROMANTIC DINNER AT HOME

A romantic dinner is always a fantastic way to spend some time together, just the two of you with no interruptions.Giving you time to talk and dream and enjoy each other’s company. But you don’t always need to go out to a fancy restaurant that is likely crowded and loud. No, trust me on this, dinner for two at home can be soooo much more fun.

First Things First

So to get started, organise a sleepover for the kids (if you have them) and send your other half a cute invitation to a Romantic Candlelit Dinner at Restaurant (Family Name or name of your choice).

Menu

Keep the menu simple, you don’t want to be all caught up and stressed with cooking and leaving your beau to entertain themselves. A great idea is to make some of their favourite dishes with a splash of something new. If you can have everything pre-prepared so that you only have to heat things up, that will make things flow much easier and give you more time to chat, laugh and snuggle up to your favourite person.

Don’t forget dessert, that can be the most romantic part of a meal. There is nothing better than to finish a meal with something sweet and yummy.

If you don’t like to cook or you don’t want to be busy serving up the food, you can always order pre-prepared food from a catering company or your beau’s favourite restaurant. Just make sure it is delivered in time, then transfer the dishes into lovely pots and plates.

Oh and don’t forget a special bottle of bubbly or your favourite wine to complete the meal.

What To Wear

Treat yourself to a new sexy dress or wear your partners favourite dress or outfit. Definitely go out and buy some sexy new underwear. Sexy underwear will make you feel sensual and will help both you and your partner get in the mood. Or if you want to be really cheeky, why not go without underwear all together, that’s bound to get things going 😉

Setting The Scene

If you have your partner arrive like he is on a date, surprise them with scented candles and flower petals at the entrance to welcome them. Dim the lights or better still set up the dinning room with a scattering of lit candles and have soft, melodious music playing in the background.

Make sure the table looks fabulous. Set the table with a tablecloth, candles and flowers. You can add a special touch by adding a crystal bowl half filled with water and floating candles.

Make sure every electronic device is turned off, including the TV, mobile phones and anything else that may be a distraction. Add some incense sticks or scented candles to add to the mood. Vanilla, Amber, Lavender, Cinnamon or floral scents work best as an aphrodisiac and will ensure to get you both in the mood.

Have A Romantic Movie Ready

After finishing a wonderful meal together, have the lounge room pre-set for a romantic movie. This gives your meal time to settle, while providing the perfect opportunity to snuggle together on the couch.

Set up another bottle of champas or wine (or even your favourite night cap) and some chocolate coated strawberries on the coffee table, so you can share them with each other while watching the movie. Why not get a little cheeky and feed them to each other? That will add some fun and maybe a little spice to your cozy time.

Setting The Bedroom

First, get rid of any clutter, make sure the room is clean and comfortable.

Buy a few metres of pretty gauze and make your very own canopy to hang from the ceiling over your bed, to give your room a luxurious and romantic feel.

Bring scent into your room. You can use the same candles and incense from the dining table, bringing the aphrodisiac into the bedroom, where it really comes into use. Add a few drops of perfume to the linen, to make your bed smell sensual. Don’t overdo it, though, you don’t want to cause a headache.

Buy a pretty, new bed cover, to change up the room a little. A change is as good as a holiday and it makes for a nice surprise for your partner.

Purchase a small gift, I suggest something that will add a little spice to your intimacy. Some Vagina Balls or a Bean, a Partner Whale or some Role Play items, Foreplay Dice or a set of handcuffs and a spanker or tickler are all great to start with. Wrap it and leave it in the middle of the bed for when you come in together. When he opens it, suggest you use it together, enjoy where it takes you.

Other Ideas To Get In The Mood

Read something sexy together, eg. Erotica story.

Dance closely together to soft, sexy music.

Make out like teenagers. Spend time on foreplay, kissing, touching, stroking and playing. Don’t go past second base. It will make you want each other even more. Or go ahead and unleash your passion.

Play a sexy bedroom game, like sharing a steamy fantasy or use your foreplay dice.

Try new positions, a 69 position is fun.

At the end of the day, it’s all about having fun and connecting with each other, so don’t worry if it doesn’t go exactly to plan, that could make it more fun. So go on, make your time together special, you both deserve it!

ENJOY EACH OTHER!

Another important aspect of developing a strong relationship, is laughter and fun. If you have this your relationship is bound to last the long haul. Have fun, laugh a lot and make your partner smile on a daily basis.
