How Well Do You REALLY Know Your Partner? 1000 ‘Must Ask’ Questions for Couples

Dan and Jennifer — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 12:25:21 +0000

How compatible are you really with your partner? Down deep, where it really counts?

How would you know? Just because you like the same types of foods and pets certainly does NOT mean you’ll have a happy, blissful, long-term relationship.

Do you know why your mate does or doesn’t attend church? Do you really? Do you know how they really think about the way you dress? Have you ever asked your partner what are the three most sensitive parts on their body? Thinking you know doesn’t make you right.

Does it really matter what your partner thinks about sex, religion, careers, household work, money and the future? ABSOLUTELY! Even if you are one of the lucky FEW who will never argue about these topics (like most people do), core differences like these can cause many, many issues in a relationship.

Love and a strong relationship can indeed conquer anything, but you have to know what you’re facing and what you’re really dealing with.

Don’t fly blind – find out where you stand.

Learn how to listen! Sit down, ask, and LISTEN to what you partner really feels.

Here’s our review of Oprah Love Expert, Michael Webb’s excellent book, 1000 Questions for Couples.

In 1000 Questions for Couples, Michael asserts that “An estimated 83% of divorces would not take place if couples asked each other the right questions”. Wow!

Fact is, a lot fewer couples would get divorced (or even marry each other in the first place) if they actually knew each other well enough before they got married. Married couples could cut down on a lot of their clashes if they simply knew more about their partner’s thoughts, beliefs and emotions.

Do married couples really need to bother with asking each other questions like these?

Absolutely. Not to mention the obvious point – showing your partner that you care enough to take time to get to know them EVEN BETTER (no matter how long you’ve been together) is sure to bring you closer. And that’s always a good thing.

While most of the questions in 1000 Questions for Couples apply to couples that are in their first months together, an amazing 700 of the questions are critical to married couples as well.

So many times a secret from one partner’s past comes out and you hear the question “how could you have not told me about that?”. The usual answer is “you didn’t ask”.

Amazing, isn’t it. And it can really be that simple…

Fact is, most couples are honest with each other, they just don’t take the time to actually get to know their partner, to actually ask each other about their past, their feelings, their convictions.

The best way to get to really know someone is to ASK!

Here are the key relationship areas where you’ll now have great questions to ask…

Personality, Feelings & Emotions
Sex
Morals, Convictions and Beliefs
Religion & Spiritual Matters
Relationships, Past & Present
Favorites
Pets
Attractions
Health, Food & Well Being
Vacations
Car & Driver
Holidays & Celebrations
Home & Home Life
Past & Future
Hobbies & Entertainment
Love, Romance & Date Nights
Friends & Family
Communication
Career and Education
Money
Children & Child Rearing
Wedding & Honeymoon

Michael Webb recommends trying doing this as a fun activity with your partner. Get creative, make it into something enjoyable, and you’ll get a LOT more out of it.

Make it a fun date and treat your partner!

Set aside an evening every few weeks to stay in and get to know each other more intimately. Set a romantic atmosphere… red wine, candles, just the two of you. And get to know each other better, on a deeper level. Choose a couple of the more probing questions and have fun revealing secrets to each other… getting closer.

How about an intimate, daily ritual for one special week?

Have fun with this! Here’s an idea. For a week, spend a few quiet, intimate minutes every evening and ask each other any two or three questions you’ve picked that day.

You’ll be amazed how much you can learn about someone you’ve spent months or even years with – if you just take the time and care enough to ask!

So what CAN you possibly ask someone you’ve been with for months or even years?

Here’s a hint… go through the book and pick a question or two from each category that jumps out at you. You’ll be surprised how much that gets you thinking, and how easy it is.

Whatever you do, have fun with it, and don’t make it a chore. Show your partner you care and truly do want to get to know them better, and become even closer – and enjoy the process!

Summary:

While we really love this book, there was one major problem with 1000 Questions for Couples… the sheer number of questions! Wow, 1000 of them! Where the heck do you start? Can you actually get anything useful out of this and not get totally lost? It can be a little overwhelming at first.

But we’ve got good news… Michael tells you exactly which few critical questions to start off with, so you don’t get lost – and most importantly – so you don’t get off on the wrong foot and come off like you’re grilling your special someone instead of just trying to get to know them better.

Overall we highly recommend this book.

Get your copy right now before you get busy and forget. Surprise your partner with something they’ll never expect – a true willingness to get to know them better and become more close and intimate.

How to Go Down on a Woman and Have Her Begging for More – Oral Sex Secrets Exposed, Lick by Lick

Dan and Jennifer — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 15:25:32 +0000

With all the societal and social stigma telling women they have to be “good girls”, very few feel comfortable talking openly about sex in general.

So it’s no surprise that most women won’t tell you they’d love for you to “go down on them”. Sure it can bring them immense pleasure, but it’s rare for a woman to make that request of her man.

Here’s what’s even worse. Amazingly enough, many women have NEVER experienced an orgasm! Think about that for a minute… never having had an orgasm.

Now, how would YOU like to be the one to give her that very first magical mind blowing orgasm? To give her all that pleasure.

Here are some surprising facts about women and oral sex

there are 8,000 nerve endings in a woman’s clitoris? More than on the head of a penis or any other part of the human body? With something that sensitive, you better know what you’re doing before you go poking around, especially with your tongue.
88% of married women say cunnilingus is their preferred form of sexual activity?
81% of women regularly achieve orgasm from cunnilingus, versus
only 25% from traditional vaginal penetration?
only 60% of women say they enjoy vaginal sex at all?
only 7.7% of women who experience more than 21 minutes of properly rendered foreplay fail to reach an orgasm? That’s over nine out of ten women who do experience an orgasm when their lover understands a woman’s body and how to drive it to new heights of ecstasy

So what role SHOULD men play here?

Of course men don’t usually think twice before asking their woman to give them oral sex, or even try back door sex with them, which is now often referred to as “the new oral”. But here’s the rub. Considering everything she does for YOU, to get YOU excited, isn’t it about time you went out of YOUR way to give HER an amazing orgasm or two?

It’s time to step up and surprise your woman with the gift of orgasm and oral sex from her man.

Today, it isn’t about you, it’s about HER. And if you’re not doing the right things to really get her excited, then what’s the point?

Here’s our review of Oprah Love Expert, Michael Webb’s excellent Lick by Lick – How to Go Down on a Woman and Have Her Begging for More.

This book is a revealing step by step guide at oral sex and female orgasm from the master of romance. It’s about time we heard from a man known as a true romantic on the real sexual needs of a woman.

Most guys have SO much difficulty actually talking openly to their lovers about anything having to do with sex. Men don’t have trouble asking for one sexual favor or another, their problem is getting into intimate details with their partner… finding out what SHE really likes without getting the male ego bruised.

But it CAN be done, and the results should really improve your sex life – by satisfying the desires of BOTH partners.

Michael walks you through ALL the questions you need to ask your lover – so you REALLY find the right spot and bring her insane pleasure. Better yet, keep it fun – make this into an erotic date night game!

This book actually goes into the touchy details, like…

how to make her comfortable talking about RECEIVING oral sex from you
how to build the trust so she’ll welcome you
how to break through her self-consciousness barrier while overcoming your own inhibitions about cunnilingus
how to recognize and navigate the 8 components of the female genitalia with your tongue, and make them love it
how to tell if she’s enjoying herself just by watching and listening
8 questions to ask to determine what she really wants
9 tips for getting her ready for you, and for it
5 ways to set the romantic stage for cunnilingus
4 techniques to prepare her body for your most intimate attention

Summary:

One thing we didn’t like about Lick by Lick – How to Go Down on a Woman and Have Her Begging for More was the long and extensive focus on safe sex, sometimes to the point of taking all the fun out of it! Your mileage may vary of course. Fact is, Michael just added all that information so that you’re informed and you have it if you want it.

Overall this book is a great guide to pleasuring your woman and we highly recommend it.

A lot of men could score some serious points with their ladies for just THINKING about bringing them this type of pleasure – not to mention actually downloading this guide and mastering the techniques. It’s not hard, it just takes a little initiative.

Get your copy right now before you get busy and forget. Surprise your woman with the gift of oral pleasure… Isn’t she worth it?

500 Sex Tips and Love Making Secrets That Everyone Ought to Know

Dan and Jennifer — Sun, 27 May 2007 14:20:05 +0000

Think back to your last date, or more specifically, to the last time you and your partner had sex …

Do you remember the steam, the excitement, the sheer animal passion when you made love… how you couldn’t help from literally tearing each other’s clothes off in the heat of passion?

No, not on your last date? Maybe the one before? Well, you get the point…

That SHOULD be your sex life, but it isn’t. So let’s find out why and FIX IT.

You’ll want to read all the way to end of this post so that you don’t miss a single great idea.

The good news – it’s not your fault! Our culture has so demonized sex and love making, that most parents won’t even have a proper discussion about sex with their children or even show affection in public. The real irony here is that we are sexual beings – it’s hard wired into our DNA.

It’s absolutely amazing how many people think sex is basically missionary position, and with the lights off. Can you say boring? Who wants to do that three times a week, really? Can you imagine having the exact same item for dinner the rest of your life?

So are you destined for a boring sex life when you KNOW there are people out there having mind-numbingly amazing and enjoyable sex?

Has this ever happened to you?

You’ve just started dating a great guy or girl, and they’re wonderful. You’re really hitting it off. But a few weeks into your relationship, they start to get cold and distant, making excuses and getting too busy for you.

You may catch a hushed mention of a previous lover, maybe when they’re chatting with a trusted friend, maybe on the phone, or worse – on the phone with their ex. Fact is, people often break up for reasons other than sex, but great sex will keep them ing back to their previous lover again, and again, and again… even when it’s against their better judgement.

So how do you become one of these incredible lovers that no one can leave or resist?

Here’s our review of, Oprah Love Expert, Michael Webb’s excellent guide 500 Love Making Tips & Secrets.

I’m sure you’ll be as excited as we were when we started flipping through the pages. Michael Webb has one of the best collections of sex tips and lovemaking advice around.

Here are just a few of the tips you’ll discover in 500 Love Making Tips & Secrets:

An item in the frozen food section that will send shivers up and down your mates body in a very surprising way
Something in your toiletry bag which doubles as an amazing lovemaking toy
2 novel ways to use mirrors in lovemaking that you probably never heard of
Several natural ways to add length to your penis (two you can even test out tonight)
the one month a guy’s testosterone peaks
A great way to invirate someone who is too tired for sex
What colored light bulbs will intensify orgasms
How to get firmer erections and prevent premature ejaculation without medicines
The two things done in combination that will blow his mind
A sexy lubrication tip that will have him, well, enough said
What food and drink you should avoid the 24 hours before making love to avoid unpleasant odors
Food items to consume so your juices are sweeter (some might surprise you)
One simple trick to make your wife scream in delight like never before
Which smells can instantly increase penile blood flow by up to 40%
Where and how to touch your guy when he is about to orgasm that will have him explode like a firecracker (even he probably doesn’t know this trick)
Ways to use your mouth on her that will drive her absolutely wild
Something to do with your hands when you are entering her that will excite her even more

Michael Webb also includes some really great dating tips to help you make your creative dates a success instead of a flop. And he also tells you how to avoid some potentially devastating dating disasters.

500 Love Making Tips & Secrets also gives you a run down of the most common love making positions (and additional ones for the adventurous and athletic) along with explanations of the benefits of each one.

There’s also a Lubrication Guide that gives you the pros and cons of the more popular products on the market, so you’ll know what’s fun and safe and what you should stay away from.

500 Love Making Tips & Secrets includes many wild, exciting and juicy ideas, but Michael Webb stays true to his promise that none of them are immoral, degrading, perverted, or raunchy. Bummer… We like some of the kinky stuff.

Summary:

While we found some of the tips and ideas in 500 Lovemaking Tips & Secrets to be a little light, and we don’t necessarily agree with his viewpoints on pornography, there are definitely a lot of great lovemaking tips and ideas that are worth trying at least once, and many that you’ll probably keep using over and over again.

Overall we highly recommend this book.

Get your copy right now before you get busy and forget. Surprise your partner with the best lovemaking they’ve had in a long time.

Here’s a common scenario…

My partner and I have been together for 2 years and we have been living together for about 4 months. Now that we are living together, we rarely have sex. We are becoming more like best friends and I’m scared the passion is fading.

I don’t want to lose my relationship but I don’t know if I have the will power to save it. What can I do?

Watch this short video to find out how you can spice up your sex life and bring back that spark you had in the beginning…

You’ll Definitely Want to Try These Fun and Creative Date Ideas

Dan and Jennifer — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 00:00:53 +0000

Think back to your last date…

Now the one before that. Remember how much fun you had? Or did you?

Were you doing the same old thing you always do, each and every time you go out on Friday night? Does your partner still get excited at the thought of going out with you?

Or is it getting boring and sometimes not even worth the hassle? What a shame…

How about some really fun, memorable, and unique date ideas that’ll get you and your partner excited to go on a date again – together?

Or here’s another scenario…

You’ve met a really great man or woman and they’ve accepted your offer to go on the very first date with you. Wouldn’t it be nice to take them on a really fun and creative date that they’ll never forget rather then the same old dinner and a movie routine?

Be different and stand out.

Most people just go out to dinner at some fancy restaurant on their first few dates. But that’s just not very special or original. Your partner will appreciate that you actually came up with something creative and romantic.

If you want to stand out from the crowd, always strive to be yourself, to be different… Don’t go on the same dates everyone else goes on, and don’t copy what everyone else does. Do something exciting and memorable, and most importantly – have fun. Fun and happiness is extremely infections… people just can’t get enough.

Here’s our review of Oprah Love Expert Michael Webb’s excellent book 300 Creative Dates… In short, you’ll never run out of fun date ideas again.

Are restaurants becoming boring as date destinations? Check out all the types of dates you’re missing out on:

Unique TV/Movie Dates
Different Dinner Dates
Vacation Dates
Picnic Dates
Game Dates
Craft Dates
Sports/Outdoors Dates
Long Distance Dates

I’m sure you’ll be as excited as we were when we started flipping through the pages. Michael Webb has the best collection of date ideas and romance tips that we’ve ever seen in one place.

Here’s a sneak peek at the great date ideas you’ll find when you get 300 Creative Dates.

Instead of a lunch or dinner date, try a breakfast date.
Go for a night swim with candles floating in the pool.
Try making a gourmet meal together.

Warm up the house in winter by baking several batches of cookies with your sweetheart to share with friends, family and coworkers.
Go through a gourmet grocery store sampling the items and buying something you have never tried before.
Spend an afternoon or evening in an art gallery and pretending you are professional art reviewers. Give each other a critique of several of the pieces.

Purchase coloring books and spend the evening coloring and talking about your childhoods.

How to Spice Up Your Sex Life and Save Your Relationship

Dan and Jennifer — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 03:11:44 +0000

The Question:

My partner and I have been together for 2 years now and we have been living together for about 4 months. Now that we are living together I feel that our relationship has changed. We hardly ever have sex, probably once a month is about all we manage to achieve.

I love sex and I’m sure that my partner does too, but for some reason we just can’t seem to make an effort to do the wild thing – one of us or both are always tired and sometimes it feels like we’re losing sexual compatibility; now it seems like I’ve had more passion in the past with other men or in the beginning of our relationship.

We do love each other and we’ve been through a lot together but I feel that our relationship is changing and I don’t know what to do about it.

We are becoming more like best friends everyday and I’m scared that the passion is fading. His idea of seduction and mine are totally different – he thinks ‘Let’s have sex?’ is an acceptable phrase into seducing a woman into hot sex, where as I would rather be pinned up against a wall without a word being said and so on…

When we weren’t living together our relationship was great; we did struggle a bit in the sex department but 3 times a week compared to once a month was a vast improvement.

Any advice you have considering this situation would be greatly appreciated. I don’t think I want to lose my relationship but I don’t know if I have the will power to save it – I don’t know what to do.

The Answer:

You might be surprised to learn that almost all long term relationships go through this ‘phase’ where everyone seems to get a little lazy. From my experience, it seems to happen somewhere between 18 months and 3 years into the relationship.

Here are some ideas that will help you make the best decision for you…

14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas

Dan and Jennifer — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 16:47:20 +0000

Are you ready for Valentine’s Day?

While we feel that you should treat every day in your relationship like Valentine’s Day, we do want to help you make this special day incredibly romantic and memorable for both you and your sweetheart.

As we get closer to Valentine’s Day, we’ll continue to update our blog with any cool resources or ideas that we find.

Here’s a great article from Michael Webb at TheRomantic.com with some really creative ways to say "I Love You" this year.

"14 Creative Valentine’s Ideas"

By Michael Webb, Founder www.TheRomantic.com

Here are 14 Creative (yet inexpensive) ways to say "I Love You" this February. Do your friends a favor and forward this message to them.

Sleep under the stars
Buy some glow in the dark stars from the toy department and arrange a special message above your bed.
Their very own coloring book
Draw a dozen or so silly pictures of memorable experiences. (browse through photo albums for ideas). Outline in black marker and then have the pages copied and bound on heavy paper at a copy shop. Give with a pack of crayons.
Computer romance
Change the screen saver on the computer to a scrolling message. For added effect, use a wingding or character font that can’t be read without decoding.
Got milk?
Hide a bunch of silly prizes and a card in your love’s favorite cereal.
Jump start the romance
Tie your card or gift on a three foot string and tie it to the bottom of an automatic garage door. When your honey comes home, the gift will magically arise to greet them.
Rubber ducky races
Go to a nearby river or stream and race rubber ducks. The loser takes the winner out for dessert.
Warm the heart
While your love is in the shower put their towel in the dryer for a few minutes so it will be toasty warm when he or she steps out.
Music to their ears
In your own voice, record a book, fairy tale or poetry on tape for your dearest to listen to on the way to work or while he or she is out of town.
A winter picnic
Move the living room furniture and have a picnic in the middle of the floor complete with blanket, picnic basket, and all the fixings (in front of a roaring fireplace would add to the effect).
Send a mail bomb
Sending a card can be exploding romantic just by adding something unexpected: a feather, leaf, matches, lock of your hair, pressed flower or your handkerchief scented with perfume/cologne.
The personal touch
Gently scratch his back for ten minutes while he falls asleep or brush her hair for the same amount of time.
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Use Rain-X Anti Fog (used to keep car windows from fogging up) and a cotton swab to write a message that will mysteriously appear on the bathroom mirror while your sweetheart is showering. Or put that old tube of lipstick to good use with a good morning greeting on the mirror.
The Jelly Belly game
Blindfold him and feed him Jelly Bellies. If he guesses the flavor correctly, he gets a prize. If he guesses wrong, you get a prize. To make it more interesting, combine flavors (root beer + ice cream = root beer float, coconut + pineapple = pina colada, chocolate + cherry = chocolate covered cherries, etc.).
Welcome home!
Use chalk to write a welcome home greeting on the sidewalk.
