How to Turn Your Partner Down for Sex

Morning sex is also awesome from a logistical standpoint.

Youre hopefully waking up rested and relaxed.

Youre not coming home after a long, crappy, stress-filled day.

Youre already naked, or just wearing easy-to-remove pajamas.

you’re able to hop right into the shower afterwards for easy clean-up.

Whats not to love?

Surprise your partner by waking them up with some sort of sexy contact.

Kiss their neck, sneak your hands down the sheets, or even start performing oral.

(Of course, this should only be done with partners with whom you have established consent.)

Tell your partner that you were having a sexy dream about them.

This is a great tip for people who tend to be shy about initiating sex.

Join your partner in the shower.

you’re free to brush your teeth, get clean, and wake up a bit.

Then jump back into bed to finish things off.

Quickies can be great during the workweek, if you only have a few minutes to spare.

Sleepy sex is awesome on the weekends, or days that you have a little extra time.

Try an easy position like spooning, or try masturbating side-by-side.

The second you see work emails, your libido will be gone.

Say hello to your partner first, and spend a few minutes cuddling and kissing.

I guarantee youll have a better morning, even if you dont do anything else.

Some women experience lubrication issues in the morning, even if they feel horny.

The solution here is simplekeep a bottle of lube in your bedside table for quick and easy access.

The biggest complaint people have about morning sex is morning breath.

But this is such an easy fix.

Keep a package of breath strips in your bedside table.

In just a few seconds, youll both have minty fresh breath.

Forbid yourselves from kissing.

This can be surprisingly hot.

Get in positions where you cant kiss.

If youre having intercourse, doggystyle or spooning can be great.

But honestly, morning breath really doesnt need to be that big of a deal.

Since you both have morning breath, its a bit easier to ignore.

Once youve kissed for about 10 seconds, you hardly notice it anymore.
