A sultry summer breeze. The sound of waves crashing on the shore. The salty smell of the ocean in the air. These are all things that can get our engines racing and make us feel alive.

Hold it right there! Where do you think you’re going? Winter is coming. While you’re busy spreading rose petals on the bed, your partner is busy making a hot tea for your laryngitis.

Before you can worry about the fun stuff, you need to focus on developing the right attitude that will hit the spot and make your relationship get there.

It’s usually the day-to-day boring stuff that nobody thinks about that will make your relationship sizzle!

1. Don’t take things too seriously

Relationships are complicated enough without adding unnecessary stress. If you want your relationship to thrive, it’s important to learn how to lighten up.

Laughter is the key to any lasting partnership. Not laughing at each other, but with each other. There’s nothing that kills the mood faster than being humiliated by your partner.

If you see him spill coffee all over his fresh pair of pants don’t point and laugh. Wait until he leaves the house for that!

It’s important to remember that no one is perfect. We all have our quirks and imperfections, and it’s those flaws that make us unique and interesting. Accepting our partner’s flaws is an essential part of any successful relationship.

So instead of getting hung up on the little things, try to focus on the big picture. If you can learn to take things less seriously, you’ll be amazed at how much more fun your relationship will be.

2. Communicate effectively — talk and listen to each other

Good communication is the key to any successful relationship, be it in the kitchen, in the garden, or the bedroom. Pun intended.

When we communicate effectively, we are willing and able to express our needs and desires, and we can also gain a better understanding of what our partner wants.

This way we can give it to them and they can give it to us.

To communicate effectively, we need to learn how to both talk and listen. We need to be clear and concise when we speak, and we also need to be attentive and respectful when we are listening.

By taking the time to really listen to what the other person is saying, we can build a deeper connection with them and create a stronger foundation for our relationship.

It’s that deep connection that lubes the way toward the wet and wild part of things more than anything else.

3. Be there for each other when needed

Life can be tough and sometimes we all need someone to lean on. That’s why it’s important to be able to trust your partner. Can you count on him no matter what? Can he count on you?

If you don’t trust each other to be there when things get hard, well… you shouldn’t count on them being there when things get… well, hard!

Be there for you when she needs a shoulder to cry on and she’ll help you celebrate your successes. Good relationships are hard to find, so when you find one, hold on tight!

Cherish your partner and let them know how much they mean to you. Because when the going gets tough, you’ll be glad you have them by your side.

4. Compromise — it’s not about always getting your way

Whether you’re disagreeing about where to go for dinner or trying to work out a more serious problem, being able to give and take is essential.

However, that doesn’t mean that you should always give in to what your partner wants.

If you’re always putting your own needs last, it’s only a matter of time before resentment starts to build. Instead, try to find a middle ground that makes both of you happy.

That way, you can avoid arguments and keep your relationship strong. So next time you’re tempted to just give in, remember that compromise is about finding a solution that works for both of you, not something that only works for one side.

5. Have fun together and make memories

If you’re not having fun, what’s it all for?

Making memories with the people we love is one of life’s greatest joys. And there’s no better way to do it than by having fun together. Laughing, playing games, and exploring new places — are all great ways to create lasting memories.

So go out and have some fun with the one you love. Make some memories that you’ll cherish forever.

Did you know that people who enjoy life the most, are easygoing, fun, and open have the most sex?

So join in, open your heart and have some fun along the way. You won’t regret it, I promise!

6. Respect each other’s differences

Are you aware that you don’t possess the key to life’s greatest mysteries?

In a world that is increasingly connected, it’s more important than ever to respect each other’s differences. Whether it’s culture, religion, or simply personal preferences, we all have unique perspectives that should be celebrated.

One of the best things about being in a relationship is getting to learn about your partner’s differences and deepen your own understanding of the world.

It’s easy to think our side is always in the right, but when we make an effort to truly understand and appreciate a different perspective, we can create a stronger bond with each other. And it’s that emotional bond that leads to a satisfying physical bond.

So next time you find yourself in a disagreement with your partner, take a step back and consider that their perspective is just as valid as your own.

7. Be yourself

Don’t you have a problem with being someone else, acting like someone else, and consequently having your partner get frisky with someone else?

Don’t do it! The most satisfying thing in the world is to see someone craving you, your real self, not some made-up cartoon of a personality that fits into every hole. Pun unintended, but enjoyed.

You can try to be someone you’re not, but eventually, you’ll get tired of pretending. It’s not worth it. It’s better to be yourself and accept who you are. If people don’t like you, then they’re not worth your time. There’s nothing wrong with being different. In fact, being different is what makes you special. So be yourself and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

8. Respect your partner’s independence

This doesn’t mean that you need to give them space all the time, but it does mean that you should allow them to have their own lives and pursue their interests.

Don’t treat them like a child, they are grown-ups and deserve to be treated as such. Nothing kills passion faster than being in a relationship with a daddy or mommy who wants to control your every move.

When you respect your partner’s independence, it shows that you trust and value them as an individual. It also creates a healthy balance in the relationship and gives you both the opportunity to grow and learn new things.

9. Be generous with compliments and positive reinforcement

A compliment is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. It can instantly brighten someone’s day and make them feel better about themselves.

Someone who feels good will also behave better towards you and is way more inclined to take part in some wet and wild activities. Nobody wants to get frisky when they have the grumpies.

And what’s more, it’s easy to be generous with compliments. Just take a moment to notice the things you appreciate about your partner, and let them know what you admire about them. A few kind words can make all the difference.

Just make sure to not go overboard and keep vomiting sweet nothings all day long like you’ve got compliment Tourette’s. They will lose their value and at some point become annoying.

10. Don’t criticize harshly — use “I” statements instead

Nobody likes to be on the receiving end of criticism, especially when it’s delivered in a harsh or confrontational way.

If you’re critiquing someone’s behavior or choice of words, it’s important to use “I” statements rather than coming across as judgmental. For example, instead of saying “You’re being really selfish,” try “I feel like I’m not being considered in your decision-making.”

Your message will be better received and you’ll avoid any unnecessary conflict.

Plus, always think of the consequences of your actions: constant criticism never led to a healthy sexy relationship. Nobody feels sexy when they constantly hear they’re no good. Eventually, someone will tell them they are good and they’ll move the wet and wild to their place.

Think before you speak.

Conclusion:

It’s not the big gestures, but the nitty gritty of everyday lives that makes or breaks a relationship.

If you want your partner to go crazy over you in all the right ways, you need to consider that rose petals on the bed and sultry sax music are only the conclusion to being your best self beforehand.
