Hoping for more than lust? Tips to give love a better chance! Also get playful with role-play...
You might want a quick fling and that's your prerogative... as long as you play safe and let the other person know. But if you're looking for love recent research found you have a better chance of a full relationship developing if you don't rush the sex.
I tackled this in my online Sun newspaper column a fortnight ago and here's the link.
In today's Sun online column I've tackled role-play - how to go about it without worrying you have to pretend to be a pirate or some other character you feel embarrassed playing. Here's the link - time to get playful!
But back to trying to forge a new relationship and not rushing into sex - this is a big issue for lots of couples and I hear from so many as an agony aunt asking me why things fell apart so quickly when it seemed like it might be a good thing: e.g., why didn't their new relationship last?
Of course there could be lots of reasons but one reason might be because you jumped into bed when things felt really exciting but before you knew each other... Then you got to know each other a little bit more outside the bedroom but didn't know how to handle each other's issues - because everyone has issues!
TODAY’S TIP: Check out my column for lots of tips but definitely let the person know you're not looking to jump straight into bed as you want more.
This is all about confidence, you've got to have the self confidence to set your boundaries. If you know what you want you have to let them know!
Good luck with your new relationship.
I'll tweet some tips over the weekend but otherwise I’m back here Monday, have a lovely one, Pamx
