Are you bored of sex? If you feel like you’re experiencing a bad case of sexual dry spell, use these 10 sexy tips to bring the sexy back in romance.
A dry spell isn’t the end of the world.
If you’ve ever been in a long term relationship, there’s a big chance that you’ve experienced this more than once.
All of us experience droughts of sexual dry spells now and then.
When there’s so much going on in your life, it’s easy to overlook a few minutes of sexual pleasure now and then, right?
When both of you look for awkward excuses or lame reasons to avoid having sex, or if both of you just don’t enjoy it anymore, big chances are, both of you are experiencing a sexual dry spell.
Most lovers get confused over this, but it’s the truth. Love and sex are two completely different emotions. As surprising as it may seem, you can love one person and yet, be extremely sexually attracted to someone else.
It’s true. Love makes sex feel better because you’re mixing two pleasurable emotions. But sex by itself can be enjoyed too. [Read: 30 ways to spice up your sex life]
Your partner and you may love each other, but have a boring sex life. That doesn’t mean both of you are falling out of love. It just means that both of you are not sexually attracted to each other anymore *which is just as bad*.
10 Ways to Get Over a Sexual Dry Spell
If you’re bored of having sex with your lover, do something about it. Sex is an integral part of a healthy romantic relationship. Once sex gets out of the picture, it’s only a matter of time before one of you get sexually excited by someone else, which will lead to infatuation and a confused state of am-I-in-love-anymore?
If you’ve been having a hard time getting hard or wet down there, use these 10 sexy tips to end that dry spell and bring sexy back into love.
1. Don’t Put Pressure on Each other
Yes, both of you haven’t had enjoyable sex for a while. And odds are, one of you may be having a hard time staying in the mood. If your partner’s not able to stay in the sexy mood for as long as it takes, don’t put more pressure on your partner to perform. It’ll only make sex feel more like a pain than anything else.
Try to change the conversation, or cuddle up, or use your hands to complete what your privates couldn’t. Just don’t let the pressure build up to the point where sex becomes a cause for stress and fear. [Read: How to keep an erection up for longer in 20 ways]
2. Work Out and Look Better Naked
Looking better can do wonders for your sex life. You’d look better which would make you feel better about yourself. And your partner would love the fit, sexy all new you.
Perhaps you haven’t realized it yet, but your sex life may be going downhill only because you don’t find yourself attractive or your partner doesn’t find you sexy anymore. [Read: The right way to get motivated to work out]
3. Be Happy
Happiness has a huge role to play in your sex life. If you’re not happy, sex can be rather stressful and boring. If you’re going through a dry spell, talk to each other about it the next day.
Communicate about other stressful issues in each other’s lives that may be causing the dry spell. By doing this, you’re making your partner feel understood. And at the same time, you can put the blame on some other stressful circumstance, which will take a load of pressure off your shoulders. [Read: How to be happy in life all the time]
4. Go Out With Your Own Friends
Get away from each other for a while. Perhaps both of you are spending too much time with each other. Go out with your own friends, have fun and miss each other enough to bring the sexual excitement back.
Go out with your own friends, come back home and jump into bed with your lover. Sometimes, all the sweating and the fun you had outside can make both of you feel hornier at the end of the day.
5. Go Out Together With Other Couples
Double dating can be sexy. Unlike going out with casual friends, on a double date you’re hanging out with another couple. Hold each other’s hands, indulge in a bit of PDA and try to turn each other on. Making out in front of someone else is always sexy.
Sometimes, teasing each other in front of another couple can give you a sexual rush that’ll last several months. Use these 30 dirty truth or dare questions with another couple to end your dry spell and get your libido soaring to a whole new high.
6. Watch Porn Together
All of us enjoy porn. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a guy or a girl. Porn is still enjoyable for both sexes. If you and your partner have had to endure a sexual dry spell for a while, get into bed together and watch a few porn movies with a decent storyline. It’ll keep both of you engrossed and wet. Stroke each other and have sex while watching the movie.
Better yet, get drunk while watching porn. When you get tipsy, your reflexes may slow down, but your pleasure sensations go up. At times, even the slightest stroke can be more arousing than foreplay. Get drunk together, cozy up and talk dirty or watch a sexy movie. You’ll end up in bed before either of you realize it.
8. Go Clubbing
Grind each other on a crowded dance floor. Have a few drinks, and step on the dance floor along with other couples. Clubs always make people feel sexy and aroused.
Dance against each other and move your bodies along each other. It’ll involuntarily arouse both of you enough to want to drive back home and have sex at the doorstep. [Read: How to grind with a guy sexily and discreetly]
9. Ban Sex For a Month
You may have had a dry spell for longer than a month, but by banning sex, you make it taboo and more exciting. Use the other tips, but avoid having sex with each other. Soon enough, the sexual tension and excitement will rekindle in your relationship.
10. Flirt With Others
Flirting is nothing but talking complimentarily with another person. Flirting with someone else makes you feel more sexy and desirable. This is especially true for men, because they end up dropping their testosterone levels once they enter a long term relationship, which makes them feel unsexy.

When you have a flirty conversation with someone, be it at work or when you’re out with your own friends, you’d feel more sexually excited and feel attractive.
And when you get back home to your partner, you’d feel more confident about your own sex appeal and your appearance, which in turn will make you a much better lover in bed.
Sexual dry spells are more common than you think. But instead of giving up on your libido, do something sexy and bring the wet showers back in bed with these 10 sexy ways to get over a sexual dry spell!
