After the initial passions of a new relationship fizzle, most couples fall into morning or evening lovemaking routines, a habit that can curb the libido. Impulsive sex is hot. For week 34 of 52 Love, channel that spontaneous spirit with an afternoon delight.
Whether it’s lazy weekend lovemaking or a lunch-hour devour-and-dash, afternoon sex can be the perfect way to rekindle your love life. Sex is a stress reliever. Afternoon sex helps you blow off midday steam. There’s no anxiety about morning breath. And unlike in the evening, you’re fully awake with enough energy to enjoy sex to its fullest.
Afternoon sex gives you the sense of getting away with something when you should be busy with responsibilities. It feels naughty, and dabbling in the taboo with your partner adds a hint of excitement. You can schedule an at-home lunch date together, then surprise your partner. Or wait for an opportune time and pounce on him. Even if you plan your tryst together, it feels spontaneous to toss aside usual daytime obligations for a quickie.
Experiment with outfits that don’t need to be fully removed to reach climax. Think button-down shirts, spaghetti straps, or slinky skirts that slide up enough to grant access (this works surprisingly well for both genders). Practice Week 30’s lesson by pretending you’re having an affair. Take turns playing the sexy secretary.
The goal here is to have fun and enjoy each other. This experience should relieve stress, not create it. Keep the pressure where it should be, on your aroused nerve endings. If one of you doesn’t climax during your first afternoon assignation, that’s a wonderful reason to try again another day. Experiment with multiple ways to hit the high point. As with any worthwhile physical goal, frequent practice improves performance.
Make every minute count. Nooners are often quick, and if you’re on a lunch break, you may need them to be. If you play them right, you’ll have sex you can savor throughout the day. Start with a knee-buckling kiss before parting ways in the morning. Continue long-distance foreplay over text, phone calls, or email—just don’t use the company channels! Let anticipation build during the morning so you are ready to tear off each other’s clothes once you’re finally within reach. When you return to your workday, resuming your torrid titillation with sexy messages about your rendezvous may lead to an evening encore. And there’s nothing routine about that.
