A Sexy Valentine's Day

Yes, you noticed – Sunday is The Day. And so we’re all geared up for a erotic weekend, climaxing – so to speak – on Sunday evening with a sex-fest!

Problem is, in these credit-crunched days, we may not have the cash we had in previous years, and that may cramp our style. But it needn’t. This week’s Sex Tip explains how, whatever your budget, you can have an erotic time. Read on for the High-Cost… Low-Cost… and No-Cost options for celebrating Lurv this weekend.

High Cost…
So money isn’t a problem and you can really splash out? Get straight on the Internet – right now – and book yourselves a top range hotel room (abroad if you can extend the weekend, if not at a luxury country inn) for the weekend. New research suggests that getting away from it all really does get the juices flowing, because we don’t have to fret about day-to-day worries.

Ahead of time, get the staff to set the scene, with champagne waiting (a little alcohol does help performance), chocolates and roses (which both stimulate the brain hormone that makes us feel in love.) When you arrive, get naked asap,  then hop into the jacuzzi bath (you have booked the Jacuzzi room, haven’t you?), and take turns to sit on the jets to get your naughty bits going.

Then produce the presents you’ve bought for each other. If you’re really flush, you’ve probably splashed out on a gold plated cock ring for him, or a diamond encrusted vibrator for her – though actually, any versions of those will do, however little they cost; it’s what you do with them that counts.

Then thank each other for your mutual generosity – in the obvious way. Get the butler (of course you’ll have a butler) to light a fire in front of which you can make long languorous love. Get that diamond encrusted vibrator going.  And, of course, if the luxury hotel room has a four poster bed, find positions that involve one of you spread-eagled and hanging on to the posts while the other rides them to climax.

Low Cost...
What if you can afford a treat – but not the de luxe version? You’ll have to lose the weekend away, but add an extra boost to your Valentine’s Day celebrations. Of course you’ll go to a restaurant on either Saturday or Sunday night – so don’t forget to order the oysters -  but why not first have an erotic adventure?  Find a burlesque club to go to – he’ll love it and she’ll find the tasteful stripping an inspiration for what to do later that night...

Back home, change into the new sexy undies that you’ve bought each other earlier in the weekend. He in particular will appreciate that as he’s aroused by the visuals, but he shouldn’t forget that she too likes to see him nicely ‘wrapped’.

Buy ahead of time a few dirty films (let her choose – his tastes may well turn her off) and let that get you going. Or read aloud from a book of erotic short stories (most sex shops will sell them, often by the till). Then let passion take over, maybe doing in real life what the actors are doing on the screen or on the page.

As you get going, for extra excitement invest in a bottle of liquor – something with a slight kick, like brandy - but not just to drink. Keep a little in your mouth then let her suck his penis, him lick her clitoris for tingling oral sex – or even better, a little 69, with both of you giving and receiving.

Now’s the time to experiment a bit – you may even have bought each other a sex manual for Valentine’s Day. Why not each choose a favourite position that you’ve never tried before, and indulge each other?.

No Cost...
Yes, it is possible to have an erotic Valentine’s Day without spending any extra money at all. After all, sex itself is absolutely free – and the scene setting can be worked by simply doing what you’d normally do, but making it sexy.

So start your evening (or your day) with a romantic walk in the park, or by the river. Hold hands, or arms round each other’s waists, and while you walk tell each other the story of how you met, and how wonderful that was. (If the walk route is very deserted, you can also swap experiences of the first time you slept together.)

On the way back home, go mad and go on the swings and roundabouts of a children’s playground – get totally overexcited and then play chase and catch; nothing is more guaranteed to get you going than fighting.

Back home, yes, you will have to pay out for a meal – but then you would have had to anyway. So buy your favourite meal. Or buy fish and chips and eat it out of the newspaper. Buy strawberries, dip each one in cream then feed each other. Or, buy  chocolate – and then melt it gently in a pan over the stove and use it to smear over – and lick off.

Which will lead you happily into a totally free – and very erotic – piece of foreplay, the sexual massage. Spread your softest towel on the floor or bed, reach for any oil you have handy (mix a little perfume in if it’s cooking oil), and get going. Hands on back, legs, arms, genitals… smear oil all over your front then slither over your loved one’s back. If you haven’t got any oil handy, you can do the same with soapsuds.

After that, if you haven’t got a sex toy handy, improvise. An electric toothbrush with a new head can double as a vibrator. A vegetable with a condom over (for hygiene’s sake) can double as a dildo. As a special treat, set the timer and give each other one way oral sex  for half an hour each way. Bliss.

And as a climax, make love as you spin each other fantasies, whispering in the  most explicit terms just exactly what you love to do to each other, or about the best sex you’ve ever had.

Then, do it and keep doing it… all night long. And none of this has cost you a penny!
