Share some quite time.

Love is a beautiful thing.

           Find a quiet little place and just spend sometime being with each other.  No worries no concerns just the two of you being present with each other.  Talk about life, dreams or the spiritual.  Just take the time to be with each other and not let anything else in.  

Conversations Hit the Road.

          There is a brand new podcast out their that covers everything from the spiritual to the sexual.  That podcast is called Conversations Hit the Road.  You can find this wonderful podcast on itunes or you can find the home page by clicking here (Conversations Hit the Road).  Listen and start your own conversation with your partner and start learning to express you feelings.  

Lovers Communication.

Communication is extremely important in a loving relationship. Talking and listening to each other is critical when you're first dating and when you're living with each other. Without it couples can literally drift apart emotionally and then physically.

If you're just starting or trying to get into a new relationship, sometimes it's tricky to bring up sensitive topics especially about sex. But this is exactly the time you need to be thinking and talking about all aspects of your sex life -- all your likes, dislikes, desires and expectations. Learning about each other's sexual preferences and perspectives will make your relationship much more fulfilling. It also enables you to get a better idea if the relationship is one you want to develop further or not.

And if you are in a long term relationship, maintaining good communication is even more important. You may think you know your partner fairly well but we all change as we grow. The assumption that you know and understand each other may be holding you back from creating an even stronger connection with the person you love. Our interests and desires evolve as we learn and experience more about the world and ourselves. Your partner may have shed restrictive beliefs or inhibitions. They may even be more open to erotic adventures and sexual pleasures initially refused -- activities you may even fantasize about still.

Sometimes it's hard to find things to talk about or ways to bring up certain subjects. Relationship games for couples can help set the mood, the expectations and the guidelines for discussing intimate questions we want answers to. Relationship games for couples help introduce intimate questions into your conversation. Randomly selecting topics from a broad list makes it easier to include more intense subjects with less sensitive ones. Here are a few quick and easy games that you can play anytime:

• Ask your partner to start by picking a letter A-Z. You then select a word or phrase starting with that letter. Your partner then asks you any question related to that word which you answer. Then switch. Go through the alphabet start to finish if you wish (each player does the same letter once).
• Each person writes down a list of questions on business cards or slips of paper. Place them in a bowl and pick them out randomly. You could set a time each day to ask each other one say before going to bed or after making love. Add to the bowl of questions whenever you think of a new idea.
• Each of you secretly write down a numbered list (2-12) of 11 relationship or sex oriented words. On each player's turn, roll two dice twice and use the numbers to select words from each list. You then make up a question that uses the two words for your partner to answer. The combinations can be very weird -- if necessary make two questions one for each word.
• Pick a relationship or sex guide book and ask your partner to pick a number between 1 and the number of pages in the book. Quickly scan the page and find a section of interest that you can ask a question about. Read the section to your partner and then ask the question.

These couples games are well suited for long distance relationships when you can only communicate by email, text message or phone call. They are excellent for online dating too. If you are stuck for conversation ideas or want to know more about a potential partner, try these relationship games and get a better understanding of the person you may decide to meet in the flesh.

It's curious that many people find it easier to have sex than to talk about it. The emotional intimacy you create when you take the time to share thoughts and feelings while listening to your partner in return is priceless. Enjoy playing couples games together and keep your intimate connection strong.

Do you know your girlfriends panties?

Panties are a type of underwear worn by girls or women in the area below the waist. They are usually light, a snug fit and decorated with prints, lace or other ornamental curios. Standard components include a waistband, a pair of leg openings and a crotch to cover the genital area. This part is usually supported by a gusset and lined for extra protection. Typically, they have no legs but, in some cases, can have very short ones. With only a few exceptions to the rule, one single unit is referred to in the plural and addressed as a "pair of panties," and is mainly worn for hygienic reasons or to look ultra-sexy and seductive. Their design can vary tremendously. Classic and high-cut briefs, hipsters, bikinis, thongs, Tangas, G-String or boy shorts are the most popular styles. The materials used to produce panties, also called knickers, pants or undies, ranges widely, and although cotton is preferred because of its absorbent qualities, other fabrics are equally in demand.

Panties are made from silk, cotton, satin, leather, PVC, nylon, mesh, lace, polyester, rawhide, lycra, but can be made from virtually any material, even edible ones. The newest cutting-edge panties are seamless. They lay flat against the body, are comfortable and impossible to detect; they are perfect to fool even the most trained eye.

Different people like different styles of panties. The style and material type preferred will depend on a persons body shape and personal preference. Choosing the perfect panties is usually a matter of trial and error.

Pictures tell the story.

Photography has been around for a long time, are you using it to record your relationship?  Have you ever thought that you can capture all the fun times and memories on that little disk that fits in your digital camera?  Well you should make it a habit to start snapping pictures everywhere you go, every event your attend, and every special moment that arrises.  Now you don't have to just try to remember them you have a hard copy of them for you to enjoy at any moment.  

Nothing more than feelings...

If you came from a family where you were not allowed to express your true feelings, you may not even be aware of the range of feelings that are normal and experienced every day. In communication with your family you may find yourself overusing the old stand by's of "Mad, Sad and Happy."

Communication based on mutual respect

Mutual respect means that children and parents allow each other to express their beliefs and feelings honestly and without fear of rejection. You may not agree with what is being shared, but you do agree they have the right to their feelings.

Use of "I" statements

When we start a conversation by saying "You always.." the other person automatically puts up defenses. Instead in using a statement on how the behavior makes you feel, you will not be laying blame and the child is more likely to listen. In most cases, it is not the behavior that is frustrating you but the possible consequences it will produce for you. A simple formula is stating;

1. When (behavior) 

2. I feel (feeling) 

3. because (state the consequence)

So instead of blaming a child, you might say, "When I see toys all over the living room, after I have asked you to pick them up, I feel like I am not being heard and it hurts my feelings.Because the toys are still here, we have two choices, either you pick them up or I will pick them up and put them away for a day."

Tune into non-verbal clues

Verbal language is communication of information. Nonverbal language is communication of relationships. Watch for clues on how your child is really feeling. Acknowledging these clues allows the child to express his feelings. For instance: "when you roll your eyes that way, I think you don't agree, is that right?" "Your frown tells me you are concerned about something. Want to talk about it?"

Words reflecting "upset" feelings

Children need to understand that there are many varying degrees of upset feelings. Some such examples are: abandoned, accused, angry, anxious, bored, defeated, difficult, disappointed, discouraged, disgusted, disrespected, doubt, embarrassed, frightened, frustrated, guilty, hate, hopeless, hurt inadequate, incapable, left out, miserable, put down, rejected, sad, stupid, unfair, unhappy, unloved, worried, worthless.

Words reflecting "happy" feelings

Just as there are varying degrees of upset feelings, there are just as many different words to describe happy emotions, such as accepted, amused, appreciated, better, capable, comfortable, confident, encouraged, enjoy, excited, glad, good grateful, great, happy, joyful, love, pleased, proud, relieved, respected, satisfied, silly.
