Not Just Valentine’s Day
Many couples are planing a special romantic evening (or morning or afternoon) on Valentine’s Day. It is the one day that many couples put the extra effort into showing their partner how much they care. Maybe you’ll take special effort to be nicely groomed, wear something very nice and sexy, and go out to dinner at a romantic restaurant. Then home where you set up a special environment with a little aromatherapy using candles and scented oils, sensual music and a special massage for your partner. The evening progresses on to spending special time together with love and sexual intimacy.
Next day, back to your usual daily routines and though you still have affection and caring for each other, this type of special evening may not happen again until an anniversary date or even next Valentine’s Day. Too often, couples rarely put the effort into creating special intimate time together. Sometimes, initiating this type of evening is up to one person. But both people involved may be contributing to the lack of intimacy. One may feel that it’s too much trouble because you’re both busy and can’t seem to get any quality time together. Maybe you have a family to raise and there is never any time for just the two of you. Or you may not feel comfortable arranging for special time together without there being some “special occasion.”
If you are in a relationship and have made special plans for the two of you this Valentine’s Day, enjoy, but don’t let this be a once or twice a year event. Take the time to do this more often, like every month or so. Plan a time when you can both be without distractions and have quality intimate time together just like on Valentine’s Day. If you have a family, hire a babysitter or have the kids stay with friends for an “over-nighter” and give yourself that special time together. You could plan to go away for a weekend or even just overnight at a nice nearby hotel where you can pamper yourselves together. You can stay home and go out to a special dinner where you can spend quality time and have a nice, intimate evening. It is also a time to play out special fantasies together and explore the variety of erotic and sensual pleasures you wouldn’t normally do.
Make plans for special time for intimacy together on a regular basis. You will look forward to your romantic getaways, enjoy the time together, and keep the romance in your lives aflame.
