Let's talk about sex: 5 ways to get the conversation flowing with your partner.

In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's easy for intimacy to take a backseat in our relationships. However, keeping the lines of communication open about sex is vital for maintaining a healthy and fulfilling connection with your partner. If you've been wanting to reignite the passion in your relationship but aren't sure how to broach the subject, fear not. We've got you covered with five tantalizing ways to kickstart that conversation and set the mood for rediscovering intimacy with your spouse.

1. Create a Safe Space: Set the stage for an open and honest dialogue by creating a safe and comfortable environment for both you and your partner. Choose a time when you're both relaxed and free from distractions, whether it's over a candlelit dinner or during a cozy evening at home. Top Tip: Be sure this isn't during exploring togetherness! You don't want to be talking about your desires whilst in the moment.
2. Express Your Desires: Start the conversation by expressing your own desires and fantasies in a non-confrontational manner. Share what turns you on and what you'd like to explore together, making sure to emphasize that you're open to hearing your partner's thoughts and desires as well. Top Tip: If you're new to talking about your desires and fantasies then try sitting back-to-back.
3. Ask Open-Ended Questions: Encourage your partner to open up by asking open-ended questions that invite deeper conversation. Instead of simply asking, "Do you want to have sex?" try asking, "What are your thoughts on our sex life lately? Is there anything you'd like to change or explore together?"

4. Use Sensual Language: Set a seductive tone by using sensual language that sparks desire and anticipation. Describe your fantasies in vivid detail and let your words ignite the flames of passion between you. Top Tip: when creating and discussing any fantasies that you'd like to explore together, be sure to create a safe word and be clear on what is to happen, any boundaries or limits present, and ensure that everyone is free to leave at any point during that fantasy.
5. Be Patient and Understanding: Remember that discussing sex can be a sensitive topic for some, so be patient and understanding with your partner's responses. Listen actively to what they have to say, validate their feelings, and work together to find common ground and mutual desires.
