Sex is supposed to be an exciting way to keep any good relationship healthy, but sometimes we require a little guidance. Falling into a routine of boring sex can cause a variety of problems. Are you finding things boring in the bedroom? Tedious? Predicatable? It’s time to spice things up!

1. Communication – Talk to your partner! This is an extremely important factor to a healthy sex life. Some of us find talking about sex embarrassing, but just remember it’s completely natural. Exposing your sexual fantasies, detailing your "likes" and "dislikes" can bring a whole new meaning to the word adventurous.

2. Pick ‘N’ Mix – Ask your partner to write down atleast 5 of his/her most favourite fantasies on pieces of paper, you do the same (If they claim not to have any, their lying!). Once completed, put the fantasies into jar and leave it in a private place. When the time comes, simply take turns in picking a fantasy from the jar and go have fun.

3. Strip Tease – Cliché yet extremely effective. It’s time to dress up in revealing lingerie with ties and lace at the ready. To improve the atmosphere, crank up some erotic music and if possible, use red light bulbs. Professional strippers use red light bulbs as in most cases, it makes ones skin look flawless. Sit your partner in a chair and tie his hands so he can’t touch you.

4. Slavery not entirely abolished – Offer to be your partners "sex slave" for an evening.

5. Unexpected phones calls – Call your partner whilst they are working, away from home or when the least expect it. Tell them how much you are looking forward to spending time with them, how much you are craving them, they’ll be home in no time!

6. French Kiss – Go to a little extra effort and randomly "make out" with your partner after a home meal, a movie or even a date.

7. 60 Seconds in Heaven – Play your very own version of "60 Seconds in Heaven". Simply ask your partner where they would like you to kiss them. Then spend the next 60 seconds lavishing over that particular area of their body, a great way to get things rollin’!

8. Write a letter – Write a letter to your lover detailing everything you plan to do to him/her when you next see each other. Have the letter delivered via courier to them at work, your partner will be wishing away the hours!

9. Truth – Play a simple game of truth. Write out questions that you would like to ask your lover and have them do the same, be creative as possible. Put all the questions in a jar and take turns picking from it and asking the questions. You may draw your own questions, but that is all part of the fun.

10. Question time – Ask your lover to answer the following questions:

• What do you want?

• Where do you want it?

• How do you want it?

• For how long do you want it?
