Last week we discussed playing dress-up doll for an outing and solidifying your place as the babe of your partner’s dreams. This week, let’s use what we learned on the receiving end to return the favor. Now that you’ve established a stronger trust in your relationship, build on that by switching roles in this experiment. As with any tip, this exercise will only work with your partner’s freely given consent. If your partner is willing, for week 27 of 52 Love, let last week’s dressee be the dressor.
We all wish for our lover to find us attractive. Last week’s lesson taught us about the confidence connected with boldly wearing an outfit, knowing that your appearance appeals to your partner. Now that it’s your turn to choose, search for items that highlight your partner’s best attributes. Is there a blouse that flatters her figure? A skirt that hugs those hips you love to squeeze? Perhaps there’s a scarf with the right splash of color to highlight the sparkle of her eyes. Use this opportunity to spotlight your partner’s physical beauty.
Take care to avoid comments that diminish your partner’s confidence. Focus on what you do like instead of perceived imperfections she may wish to hide. This isn’t the time to suggest constricting slimwear for the sake of body shaming. Creating or feeding an insecurity complex will sabotage your efforts to grow closer. If you, however, go crazy at the sight of her favorite red corset cinching her waist, then by all means, ardently accentuate her assets.
The important thing is to make her feel loved and admired in the outfit you piece together. If she squirms from insecurity, bolster her confidence with the reasons you admire this look on her. If she grumbles about clashing items, work together to find something that satisfies the look you want while alleviating her concerns. As the initiator, you should accommodate her despite your efforts to avoid such conflict when roles were reversed. The onus is yours to keep the peace. In time, perhaps she’ll discover 52 Love and you’ll receive the same considerations.
As you assemble her ensemble, help her into each piece. Glide your fingers along her waistband before you fasten the snap. Breathe in the scent of her hair while you pinch her zipper tab and slide it through its shiny teeth. Slowly button your way up the silky material that conceals her soft, smooth skin. Use the proximity as a means of foreplay, a promise of what’s to come when you return home.
Once you hit the town, continue to assure your partner of her emphasized beauty. Smile when you catch her eye. Strut proudly beside her as you pass onlookers. Comment on how much she excites you. Pull a phrase or two from Week 9. And once you get home, show the same level of care as you applied selecting the night’s ensemble when undressing your lovely lady.
