Most couples are only scratching the surface of their sexual potential. Imagine if you were to dedicate time and energy into actually becoming a great lover! Now if you are like half of married couples only having sex once a week or less then that isn't really going to give you much time to practice is it?

Hang on, many of us do ‘chores' that we don't even like more often than doing something really pleasurable like having passionate sex!

More than half of women say they have faked an orgasm with their lover.
70% of women have NEVER even had an orgasm during intercourse with their partner. Yes read that again. It's a big number.
1 in 7 women have NEVER had an orgasm at all!

Why? Perhaps it is because our culture makes it embarrassing and inappropriate to get help. And if nobody asks for help, then there is no demand and logically no need for any resource in this area! But if the statistics above are true, and there is so much more potential for couples when it comes to having a great sex life, then surely there is a need for information, for teaching even though people may be too shy to ask for it.

The irony is that we live in a ‘sexually saturated' world. Everywhere we look there is a sexual message in advertising, in movies and in pornography. But what is the message that is being conveyed? I think it is sad that many couples feel they have to resort to pornography to inspire their sex life.

Catch this. Research has shown that the single best way to intensify orgasms and the overall lovemaking experience is having longer foreplay. But if it is the same old foreplay you have always been doing, touching here and there, kissing and licking the good bits (yep like you see in all the trashy porn) what will be exciting at first can easily become less enjoyable and even a little boring! What you need is something different, variation, excitement.

By turning foreplay into a game or (turning your bedroom into a funroom) you will take your lovemaking to levels of pleasure you possibly have never even experienced.

Check out these cool ideas and put one into action today.

Creative Dates (Tired of the same old "dinner and a movie" date?) Re-ignite your relationship.

Idea 1. Invite your partner to go for a walk. Get a back pack and pack the following items: A picnic blanket, a selection of fruit in small containers eg. strawberries, grapes, watermelon and kiwi fruit. Some cheese and crackers. Maybe even some sandwiches. A half bottle of champagne and two plastic champagne glasses. If your partner asks what's in the backpack, just say a jacket and some lunch.
When you find a romantic spot, ask if she would like to stop for a bite to eat. Open your pack and remove the items one by one to set up your picnic. The last item you remove should be the glasses and champagne. It may sound simple, but getting back to basics and laying on a rug together with some nice food can be a wonderful aphrodisiac.

Idea 2. When you and your partner are planning to go out for dinner, suggest that you have an 'Adventure Dinner'. Here's how it works...Set the timer on your stopwatch to count down twenty minutes. Next, ask your partner to choose a number between 5 and 10. Lets say she chooses 7.
Give your partner a coin and tell him that at every 7th intersection, he has to flip the coin. If it is heads you will turn left. If it is tails you will turn right. When your watch timer goes off you have to both find the nearest place to eat. This is a fun way to get out and about and try new restaurants. Even if the food is terrible it will give you some very fun stories to tell! Oh and heres the spice. Do the whole date with no underwear (try not to giggle too loudly!) ;o)

Idea 3. Wear The Pearl Necklace on your date www.romanceme.com.au than use it on him. To find out how to use it go to our Discussions tab on our Facebook page

Idea 4. Share your food with your partner. When you go out for a meal, hold a forkful or even use your fingers to lift it up to your spouse's mouth and say "You've got to try this." Don't be afraid to let your fingers linger and get a little lick!
Sharing your food and even feeding each other is a great way to become closer as a couple.

Idea 5. Buy the domain name of your partner's name if it is available for example www.TonyJohnston.com.au Create a web page containing a romantic poem or a sexy escape date instructions. When your partner is surfing the web, casually ask whether she/he has ever checked to see whether her/his domain name is taken. Let her type it in to discover her page.

Idea 6. Use this idea if your partner is going to work and you are staying at home for some reason (Perhaps you are sick or are working from home).Say goodbye to her at the front door and then immediately send an email to her work address. The email should simply say,"Miss you already".
The email will be in her in-box when she does her morning email check.

Idea 7. Book your own Romance Me event at your house. Invite a group of girlfriends and we will come along, humorously present a great topic and show you some games you can buy and take home that night! Guaranteed to add some serious fun to your bedroom.

Idea 8. Put one of the above into action right now. You dedicate plenty of time to your work, to the gym, to your kids so why not actively choose to dedicate time to your marriage bed too.
