12 Common Mistakes You Might Be Making in the Bedroom

May 18, 2024

5.    You’re trying to talk dirty in all the wrong ways.

Movies like 50 Shades of Grey have made women want to talk dirty in the bedroom. However, there can be a difference between the porn he may watch and the way he wants you to talk to him in the heat of the moment.

First and foremost, ask him what he likes in the way of dirty talk. Does he want you to be straightforward or subtle? Do four-letter words turn him on or off? And does he even like dirty talk at all?

Second, try to be natural and spontaneous about word play. In other words, don’t bust out in random dialogue for the sake of just being heard. Tell him what you’re feeling, but be honest about it. Try not to sound like a script.

6.    You’re too repetitive.

Repetitiveness is one of the most common saboteurs in the bedroom. That’s because women get comfortable with what they know and forget to explore options outside of what they’ve become accustomed to.

So don’t make the missionary position your go-to every time. Spice it up. If you’re lacking creativity, here are some ideas.

·         When the kids aren’t around, catch him off-guard at the kitchen table. Wear a dress with no panties and climb on top. He won’t know what hit him.

·         Learn how to do a strip tease. Light a candle and download your favorite sexy song. Then give him the lap dance of his life.
