			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Top 6 Valentine’s Day Sex Positions" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-6-valentines-day-sex-positions/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is great for trying new, risque things in the bedroom. It is a time when one or both partners are more open to trying new things, and are more into introducing sex toys, new activities, sex games and the like. If you want to experiment with bondage this Valentine&#8217;s Day, these sex toys are awesome for you to introduce to your lover on the 14th!</p>
<h3>1. Candy Ball Gag</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;ve never experimented with gagging before (either yourself or your partner) you don&#8217;t want to introduce heavy headgear to start out with. While this may indeed sound like a no brainer, you wouldn&#8217;t believe how many people who have never tried bondage or BDSM before bring home whips and chains for the first time.</p>
<p>A <a title="Candy Ball Gag" href="http://shopdanandjennifer.com/fetish-fantasy-series-candy-ball-gag" target="_blank">candy ball gag</a> is a perfect Valentine&#8217;s Day treat. It will inspire you and your partner to get a little more frisky in during sex, without going over the top. If your lover is a little weary about trying any type of gagging or submission, this can be just the thing to help ease them into the BDSM world without scaring them away. It&#8217;s just &#8220;innocent&#8221; enough to pass off as a fun toy, while allowing you and your lover to explore your sexual boundaries a little more.</p>
<h3>2. Fetish Fantasy Doggie Strap</h3>
<p>Take doggy style to a whole new level with the <a title="Fetish Fantasy Doggie Style Training Kit" href="http://shopdanandjennifer.com/fetish-fantasy-series-doggie-style-training-kit" target="_blank">Fetish Fantasy Doggie Strap</a>. You&#8217;ve never tried anything like this before! This unique sex toy is designed to be used only by couples during sex, so it&#8217;s an excellent Valentine&#8217;s Day gift. If you&#8217;re going to give your lover a sex toy as a <a title="Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Her (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-10-valentines-day-gift-ideas-for-her-video/" target="_blank">Valentine&#8217;s Day gift</a>, selecting something that can be used by both you and your partner is most definitely the way to go. It&#8217;s much less offensive than getting your partner a giant dildo or vibrator, and you&#8217;ll get to enjoy it too!</p>
<p>Simply slip the doggy strap around your partner&#8217;s hips, with one handle on each side. The &#8220;strap&#8221; part should be resting against the lower abdomen. Use the handles to help with your thrusting &#8211; you&#8217;ll get harder and faster penetration, and you&#8217;ll both feel extra naughty doing it!</p>
<h3>3. LELO Sensua Suede Whip</h3>
<p>The <a title="LELO Sensua Suede Whip" href="http://shopdanandjennifer.com/lelo-sensua-suede-whip-red" target="_blank">LELO Sensua Suede Whip</a> is an excellent choice for Valentine&#8217;s Day BDSM fun. While this toy is probably better off being used with someone who has had some experience with mixing pain with pleasure, it can still be used lightly by beginners. However, if your an experienced player, this is great addition to your toy box for Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re just starting out with pain and pleasure, gently use the suede whip to tickle and tease your lover into a foreplay frenzy, then turn them over and give them a few light whips on the rear. You don&#8217;t want to go leaving any huge welts or anything, but a few light red patches on the supple skin of their hind end can be super sexy!</p>
<h3>4. Sportsheets Romantic Restraint Kit</h3>
<p>Take no prisoners this Valentine&#8217;s Day! Actually, you can make your partner your sexy prisoner with the <a title="Sportsheets Romantic Restraint Kit" href="http://shopdanandjennifer.com/sportsheets-romantic-restraint-kit-black" target="_blank">Sportsheets Romantic Restraint Kit</a>. This is an excellent bondage introductory kit that includes a light rubber tickler, a blindfold and Velcro cuffs. It&#8217;s totally not intimidating, which makes it a perfect Valentine&#8217;s Day gift for the lover that hasn&#8217;t had a lot of experience with domination, submission or bondage.</p>
<p>Blindfold your partner and restrain their hands with the soft cuffs, and use the feather tickler to get them hot and ready. Play a game where your partner guesses where you&#8217;re going to tickle next, or mix the sensations of the feathers with the sensation of your hot mouth and tongue all over their body.</p>
<h3>5. Fetish Fantasy Web Restraint</h3>
<p>If you really want to get a unique and exciting bondage toy for Valentine&#8217;s Day, the <a title="Fetish Fantasy Web Restraint" href="http://shopdanandjennifer.com/fetish-fantasy-web-bed-restraint-system" target="_blank">Fetish Fantasy Web Restraint</a> is right up your alley! This fun restraint slips over your bed in a &#8220;spider web&#8221; like fashion, allowing both you and your lover to restrain yourselves to the bed and to each other in different ways. This is almost like the &#8220;Twister&#8221; of bondage toys, so expect to have a good time when you use this! Use your imagination to find fun new sex positions to try, or restrain yourself or your partner during oral sex for a brand new, exciting Valentine&#8217;s Day experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is not just about gifts for &#8220;Her!&#8221; Although it&#8217;s awesome if you get some pretty great gifts from your guy, you shouldn&#8217;t leave him out of the gift giving equation just because Valentine&#8217;s Day is marketed so heavily towards women. But look at it this way &#8211; what does your guy want the most? Food? Maybe. Sex? You bet! So this year, you can surprise your man with his very own sex toy &#8211; and here&#8217;s the reason you should!</p>
<h3>He Never Gets Sex Toys</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s true &#8211; many guys don&#8217;t go to sex toy stores for themselves, nor do they order online. They&#8217;ve always done just fine with their hand, and frankly, for a long time, <a title="Male Sex Toys: Masturbators, Penis Pumps, and More (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/sex-toys-for-boys-male-masturbators-penis-pumps-masturbation-video/">sex toys for &#8220;boys&#8221;</a> just weren&#8217;t all that great. Things have come a long way since then, baby! Sex toys for men have much better materials, are higher quality and just <em>feel better </em>than they ever did before. But chances are, your guy is still stuck back in the stone age, thinking his hand is enough to get the job done. It is &#8211; but there are much better alternatives out there!</p>
<p>Your guy may also be incredibly embarrassed to order from a sex toy store, so perhaps he&#8217;s thought about it, but never made that jump. Either way, the fact of the matter is, while you may go shopping for this vibrator or that dildo, he&#8217;s never really had a thing.</p>
<h3>Masturbation Gets Boring Sometimes</h3>
<p>Even though guys look at <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/porn-adult-movies-erotica/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porn</a> way more than girls do when masturbating, it still gets boring sometimes. His hand just doesn&#8217;t feel as good as your vagina, but he makes do because let&#8217;s face it &#8211; guys masturbate. They just do. They do it when they have great sex lives, they do it when they have bad sex lives. They&#8217;ll do it if they had sex <em>an hour ago</em>, if nothing more than to help themselves fall asleep later. But just because your guy has a habit doesn&#8217;t mean he should have to do it really fast, in the dark, by himself, with no toys, just-to-get-it-over-with.</p>
<p>Think about how much you love your trusty <a title="Q&amp;A: How Is A Vibrator Different From A Dildo? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/qa-how-is-a-vibrator-different-from-a-dildo-video/">vibrator</a>. It gets you off every single time, doesn&#8217;t it? You know just how to use it and just how to move it to give yourself the best climaxes. But your guy probably doesn&#8217;t know that pleasure! Getting him his very own masturbation sleeve for Valentine&#8217;s Day ensures that masturbation will be fun and exciting for him again &#8211; and <em>you&#8217;ll </em>reap the benefits of his improved mood, guaranteed.</p>
<h3>He Wants To Know You’re Okay With His Masturbation Habits</h3>
<p>Many guys grow up believing <a title="Advanced Masturbation Techniques – Using Sex Toys (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/masturbation-how-to-masturbate/advanced-masturbation-techniques-using-sex-toys-video/">masturbation</a> is wrong or taboo. They&#8217;ve learned to masturbate quickly and in secret, and to hide their habits well. But he knows deep down that you know he masturbates. And while he&#8217;ll probably never discuss his masturbation habits with you (unless you guys are really, really close &#8211; like married for many years close), he secretly desires to know that you&#8217;re fine with him masturbating and aren&#8217;t bothered or threatened by it at all.</p>
<p>He might even have had a girlfriend or two that caught him masturbating or found his porn stash and made him feel bad or guilty about doing it. He may be terrified you&#8217;ll find out he jacks off! For him to get a solo sex toy from you for Valentine&#8217;s Day (along with an uber cool and casual attitude about it) will say to him that you&#8217;re confident and you don&#8217;t care that he masturbates. In fact, you encourage it. Make sure he has privacy, always knock if the door is closed and never make snide comments about it, and he may very well just think you&#8217;re the coolest chick ever.</p>
<h3>He Would Love It If You Played With The Toy Together</h3>
<p>Along with the idea that you are cool with him masturbating is the idea that you could watch him masturbate and help by giving him a handjob. When you give him the gift of his very own sex toy this Valentine&#8217;s Day, a scene of you, him, and the sex toy being very, very naughty is going to immediately pop into his head. This is a good thing!</p>
<p>While you definitely want to give him some time to learn how to use the thing on his own, after he&#8217;s had it a few weeks, you might suggest using it with him while you&#8217;re giving him a blowjob or kissing all over his body. Once you use a male masturbator to give your lover a <a title="How To Give A Hand Job: A Quick Guide On How To Give Him Some Manual Love" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/masturbation-how-to-masturbate/how-to-give-a-hand-job-a-quick-guide-on-how-to-give-him-some-manual-love/">handjob</a>, you&#8217;ll <em>never, ever </em>go back to doing it with just your hands. Say goodbye to hand and arm cramps, ladies!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is traditionally a &#8220;date night&#8221; for most couples, but don&#8217;t do something cliche this year. Get creative and do something really fun and exciting that will make your partner feel super special! Forget about dinner and a movie &#8211; check out these brand new Valentine&#8217;s Day date ideas!</p>
<h3>1. Surprise Valentine’s Day Dinner At Home</h3>
<p>The idea itself has been done before, but this is where you have to use your imagination to take it to a whole new level. Don&#8217;t have cash? Grab McDonald&#8217;s &#8211; and a few candles from the dollar store. Have a <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romantic dinner</a> by candlelight! If you cook something yourself, why not use red and pink food coloring to make it a Valentine&#8217;s Day delight? Seriously. Just use your brain!</p>
<h3>2. Charity Work</h3>
<p>This is another excellent idea if you don&#8217;t have a lot of cash this year to blow on romantic dinners and <a title="Q&amp;A: How To Ask A Good Friend To Go On A Date (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/qa-how-to-ask-a-good-friend-to-go-on-a-date-video/">dates</a>. Take some time out of your day to deliver inexpensive Valentines to the elderly at a nursing home, or the cancer ward of the hospital. Even better if you live near a large hospital like St. Jude&#8217;s that has a children&#8217;s wing. Wherever you choose to go, spend the day with your honey making the lives of others just a little brighter!</p>
<h3>3. Painting Together</h3>
<p>Grab some inexpensive painting supplies from your local hobby store and set out to paint pictures for each other. If you&#8217;re inept at drawing, try abstract painting. Or, watch a few Bob Ross episodes before you get going. It&#8217;s actually not too difficult to paint those happy little trees, after all! Have a blast painting with each other and present your gifts to each other at the end of the day.</p>
<h3>4. Totally Decked Out Romantic Space</h3>
<p>Surprise your girl (this one doesn&#8217;t work too well for guys, sorry!) with a totally decked out romantic space. this can be the bathroom if you want to give her a romantic bubble bath and an <a title="Erotic Massage: How Erotic Touch Can Turn Up the Heat in Your Bedroom" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/foreplay-videos-tips/erotic-massage-how-erotic-touch-can-turn-up-the-heat-in-your-bedroom/">erotic massage</a>, or it can be the bedroom if you&#8217;re planning a night of hot passion. Red sheets and a satiny comforter? Yes. So many balloons you can no longer see the ceiling or floor. Yes. Champagne, chocolate covered strawberries and roses by the bed? Yes!</p>
<h3>5. Picnic And Dancing In A Field</h3>
<p>If the weather is nice on Valentine&#8217;s Day, you can pack up a picnic and head out to an empty field. Once you finish the meal, you can open the doors and windows of the car and play music. Have fun dancing and rolling around in the grass with each other! If you&#8217;re really secluded, you might even want to <a title="What’s The Best Time To Have Sex?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/what%E2%80%99s-the-best-time-to-have-sex/">have sex</a> right there in the middle of nowhere!</p>
<h3>6. Candlemaking</h3>
<p>This is definitely a unique idea that really isn&#8217;t done often enough &#8211; probably because the thought of candlemaking with a girl makes any man&#8217;s insides squirm. But in all honesty, candlemaking is actually a really cool date. If you have somewhere in your town that has candlemaking classes, this is an excellent choice. If not, head over to your local craft store, pick up the supplies and do it at home. It&#8217;s actually really fun, your girl will <a title="How To Say “I Love You” For The First Time On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-how-to-say-i-love-you-for-the-first-time/">love</a> it, and the candles actually end up being pretty good if you use quality supplies.</p>
<h3>7. Picnic With A Twist</h3>
<p>A lot of couples don&#8217;t have picnics because who wants sandwiches? It&#8217;s not like that&#8217;s a super exciting cuisine, anyways. But head out anyways and have a picnic with a twist. Have a pizza or Chinese food delivered to wherever you&#8217;re at! This is easiest at a public place you know is in their delivery area, like a park with tables. It&#8217;s still pretty inexpensive as meals go, and it will be way more fun than just ordering a pizza at home.</p>
<h3>8. Ice Cream “Social”</h3>
<p>Go out for dinner, but plan to have the dessert at home. Grab all the fixin&#8217;s for ice cream sundaes (the more decked out the better) and have an &#8220;ice cream social&#8221; at your house after dinner. If you want to take this to a really special level, head to your local &#8220;paint it yourself&#8221; pottery store and paint her a sweet ice cream dish. She can take it home as her <a title="Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Her (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-10-valentines-day-gift-ideas-for-her-video/">gift</a> after the &#8220;social!&#8221;</p>
<h3>9. Wii Competition</h3>
<p>Lots of girls are competitive. Plan a simple date night by having a Wii championship. Choose whatever game your partner feels like they&#8217;re best at, and make sure to win a few times but ultimately end up losing the championship to her (make it believable!) Ideally, you&#8217;ll have both set a &#8220;winner takes all&#8221; wager, and she&#8217;ll get either great sex or a lifetime of servitude.</p>
<h3>10. At Your Service</h3>
<p>If you can&#8217;t plan something really special for <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>, have a normal night at home. It won&#8217;t be a normal night though &#8211; you&#8217;re going to make her feel like a princess! Wait on her hand and foot, clean up the house, fix her dinner and give her an incredible foot or back massage afterwards. For the entire evening, she is to be treated like royalty. It&#8217;s a very special and fun Valentine&#8217;s Day date that doesn&#8217;t cost a thing!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Top 6 Valentine’s Day Sex Positions" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-6-valentines-day-sex-positions/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> should involve great sex &#8211; and many guys think that involves trying all kinds of new things. But should you use new, crazy weird sex positions to rev things up? No! Not at all! In all seriousness, feeling like a pretzel on Valentine&#8217;s Day is more likely to turn your girl off than to catapult her to orgasm. Instead, use these four tried but true sex positions (with an interesting twist!)</p>
<h3>1. The Lotus Position</h3>
<p>Even though this is considered to be a pretty basic sex position by most seasoned sex gurus, many couples haven&#8217;t tried it. If you and your partner haven&#8217;t, consider yourself all set for Valentine&#8217;s Day! You&#8217;ll get to try a &#8220;new&#8221; sex position with your girl, but it&#8217;s one that won&#8217;t leave her feeling cheap and used.</p>
<p>If you have used it before, that&#8217;s okay. It&#8217;s still great for Valentine&#8217;s Day because it involves lots of cuddling and face to face intimacy. Yep &#8211; Valentine&#8217;s Day is all about the <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romance</a>. That doesn&#8217;t mean it stops as soon as the sex starts. Your job is to carry it over and make getting it on with your lover as romantic as the rest of your gifts.</p>
<h3>2. Reverse Cowgirl</h3>
<p>Okay, you&#8217;ve done the lotus, you&#8217;ve had lots of cuddle time and have romanced your girl until you&#8217;re blue in the face. You&#8217;re both ready for some <em>action! </em>Throw caution to the wind and put your lover in the reverse cowgirl position. This is an excellent sex position to use because not only do you get an incredible show, she gets friction on her clitoris from your scrotum, bringing her closer to orgasm than with other <a title="6 Sex Positions That Make You Look Good" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/best-sex-positions/6-sex-positions-that-make-you-look-good/">sex positions</a>.</p>
<p><em><strong>Why This Will Work On Valentine&#8217;s Day</strong></em></p>
<p>She knows she&#8217;s going to be <a title="What’s The Best Time To Have Sex?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/what%E2%80%99s-the-best-time-to-have-sex/">having sex</a> on the 14th. She&#8217;s had it in her mind for weeks. She&#8217;s likely bought special panties or a <a title="How To Buy Erotic Lingerie For Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/how-to-buy-erotic-lingerie-for-valentines-day/">lingerie</a> set already. There&#8217;s not a snowball&#8217;s chance in hell that she&#8217;s gone &#8220;au natural&#8221; on the big day. You can bet your bottom dollar that she&#8217;s clean, trimmed and prepped so as to be &#8220;ready&#8221; for <em>anything </em>on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Use this to your advantage.</p>
<p>Reverse cowgirl is one of the sex positions that women will engage in <em>only </em>if they&#8217;re comfortable enough with their bodies and <em>only </em>if they&#8217;re super clean and trimmed or shaved down there. A woman is not going to put herself on display for you like that unless she&#8217;s totally confident that she looks good.</p>
<h3>3. Spooning</h3>
<p>Again, while this is a widely used sex position, it is an excellent choice for February 14th because it involves lots of romance and intimacy. You can kiss and caress your partner&#8217;s ears, neck and shoulders while you slowly penetrate her from behind, while running your hands all over her breasts, hips and finally resting on her <a title="Clitoris 101: 3 Things Men Need to Know about the Clitoris" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/orgasm-videos-tips/clitoris-101-3-things-men-need-to-know-about-the-clitoris/">clitoris</a>.</p>
<p>Not only will this sex position make her feel super loved and cherished (which is a total turn on for women), you can also help her reach orgasm faster by fingering her clitoris &#8211; just make sure you use lube!</p>
<h3>4. Yep&#8230;Missionary!</h3>
<p>Believe it or not, missionary is probably still one of the best Valentine&#8217;s Day sex positions out there. Yes, it&#8217;s completely played out. It&#8217;s been done and done again, and it&#8217;s become the running joke of sex positions couples who have really boring sex lives use. But that&#8217;s definitely become the stereotype of the <a title="3 Sex Positions For Deeper Penetration" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/best-sex-positions/sex-positions-for-deeper-penetration/">missionary position</a> &#8211; that doesn&#8217;t mean it actually <em>is </em>boring.</p>
<p>The truth about the missionary position is that it is what you make it. If you think it&#8217;s going to be boring, it&#8217;s going to be boring. If you instead allow yourself to live &#8220;in the moment&#8221; and savor each and every sensation you experience &#8211; from the sights to the smells to the tastes &#8211; then you&#8217;re going to have <em>fantastic </em>sex, and it won&#8217;t even matter what position you use!</p>
<p>Make missionary sex incredible this Valentine&#8217;s Day by making it sweet and romantic. Engage in lots of foreplay first. Give her oral sex so good, she&#8217;ll think you&#8217;re in love with going down on her and aren&#8217;t ever going to stop. By the time you get to actually doing it in the missionary position, she should have had at least one <a title="3 Sex Tips To Give A Woman An Orgasm Without Using Your Hands!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/orgasm-videos-tips/3-sextips-to-give-a-woman-an-orgasm-without-using-your-hands/">orgasm</a>, if not more. Then, penetrate her slowly and let her excitement build again. Have sex life a masterful, skillful lover and she won&#8217;t even <em>care </em>that you used the missionary position! In fact, she&#8217;ll be glad she didn&#8217;t have to re-enact yoga positions while naked on Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="How To Write Valentine’s Day Poems For Your Guy" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-poems-for-your-guy/">Valentine&#8217;s Day poems</a> don&#8217;t have to be sweet all the time! While a poem full of romance is perfect for the 14th, sometimes that&#8217;s just not where you want to go with it. If you want to write something for your lover&#8217;s gift, but you also want to have some great sex, here&#8217;s how you can make it so hot, you&#8217;ll get laid (and she&#8217;ll still think it&#8217;s romantic!)</p>
<h3>Write What You Mean And Mean What You Write</h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t write something just to write it. Don&#8217;t do it because you think you should, or because you think love poems have to be a certain way. Start with your feelings. Write what you mean. If you write it, mean it. Don&#8217;t inject fake emotions into the poem because you think they should be there or because you think it sounds better if you do.</p>
<p>Your girl will easily be able to tell if you&#8217;re just giving her <a title="Dating Tips: What Are The Best Pick Up Lines? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/pick-up-lines/dating-tips-what-are-the-best-pick-up-lines-video/">lines</a>, so writing a super fancy love poem with words she <em>knows </em>you don&#8217;t fully understand (and using language that you would never use in a hundred years) isn&#8217;t going to get you very far. In fact, you&#8217;ll put a lot more effort into it than you&#8217;ll get out.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a hint: When you stay true to yourself and your feelings, it doesn&#8217;t feel like it takes much effort at all and the rewards are great.</p>
<h3>Go “Sensual,” Not “Sexual”</h3>
<p>This Valentine&#8217;s Day, you want to have <a title="The Top 7 SEXIEST Valentine’s Day Ideas Ever!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-top-7-sexiest-ideas/">incredible sex</a>. You also want to try your hand at seducing your lover with poetry. If this is your goal, you don&#8217;t want to go with anything &#8220;sexual.&#8221; Talking about how hot she is, how hard she makes you or how horny you are isn&#8217;t going to do much in the way of getting her to go to bed with you. This is not what is going to get her to respond.</p>
<p>Instead, go &#8220;sensual.&#8221; Talk about her curves, how supple her skin looks in the moonlight and how you love kissing her soft lips. Compare parts of her to things you can find in nature &#8211; eyes the precise color of a sparkling river, lips like <a title="Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Her (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-10-valentines-day-gift-ideas-for-her-video/">rose petals</a>, etc. Use words like &#8220;wet, hard, delicious, supple, dirty, etc.&#8221; but not to describe <em>her. </em>She&#8217;ll get the underlying meaning. If you think of something sexual to write, just stop and think of how a woman might right that same thing. Would she say, &#8220;Your hot body makes me so hard,&#8221; or would she say, &#8220;Your sensuous curves set me on fire!&#8221; Think about it!</p>
<h3>Don’t Be Afraid To “Get Inspired”</h3>
<p>Guys look at porn. Women read <a title="How To Have Romantic Sex On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-how-to-have-romantic-sex/">romance</a> and erotic novels. So if you&#8217;re going to try to <a title="How To Seduce A Woman" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/seduction-videos-tips/how-to-seduce-a-woman-video/">seduce</a> your lover on Valentine&#8217;s Day with poetry, why not go to the source of all women&#8217;s desire? Yes, it means you&#8217;ll have to read. Girly stuff. But it will be well worth it to understand a sexual situation from a woman&#8217;s perspective. Romance and erotic novels are nothing but situations in which a woman&#8217;s perfect scenario with someone is acted out word for word, play by play.</p>
<p>Google some short erotic stories &#8211; you&#8217;ll get to the good stuff a lot sooner than if you try to crack open a Harlequin. Take note of what the main woman in the story is seeing, feeling and thinking. Use this to inspire you to write your own story of sorts. Notice the slow buildup before anything erotic is introduced &#8211; this is definitely something you want your own poetry to reflect!</p>
<h3>Play On Her Fantasies</h3>
<p>Again, this is where either knowing your partner really well or knowing how women think about sexual situations well. Don&#8217;t think you&#8217;ll be able to write excellent Valentine&#8217;s Day poems without doing a little homework first. Think about what your lover likes in bed. Has she expressed to you what her desires or <a title="Q&amp;A: My Sexual Fantasies Are Taking Over My Life (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/qa-my-sexual-fantasies-are-taking-over-my-life-video/">fantasies</a> are? If so, you&#8217;re lucky! If you&#8217;re not quite sure, just write your poetry based on what you <em>know </em>she likes.</p>
<p>So to sum it all up, you want to be genuine when you write, get an idea of what to write from erotic or romance novels and choose topics that reflect your lover&#8217;s hidden desires. Be sensual and put some personality into it and you&#8217;re golden! Even if you&#8217;re not a brilliant author, your partner will know that you spent time and effort on her this Valentine&#8217;s Day. For a woman, that&#8217;s the best gift of all!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is all about romance, but you should inject a healthy dose of sex in there too for a great night. While she&#8217;ll love the romance, you&#8217;ll both dig the sex, so here are the very best unique and SEXY Valentine&#8217;s Day suggestions!</p>
<h3>1. Paint Her Body</h3>
<p>Your woman wants you to spend some time on <em>her </em>this Valentine&#8217;s Day. What better way to do that than to lick and kiss all over her body, from head to toe? You can do this on your own, or you can gift your partner a delicious tub of edible body paint (or just use regular chocolate sauce) and tell her you&#8217;re going to <em>enjoy her </em>all night.</p>
<p>Draw hearts and words on her body and lick off the paint slowly, letting her savor every sensation! Just remember not to put anything with sugar on her genitals &#8211; this will give her an uncomfortable yeast infection later! That is <em>not </em>a <a title="Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Her (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-10-valentines-day-gift-ideas-for-her-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day gift</a> you want to leave your lover with!</p>
<h3>2. Steamy Sex Games</h3>
<p>Why not break out a sexy board game for Valentine&#8217;s Day? Go with something tame like Battle Of The Sexes if you want to get competitive but not naked, or play something fun like strip poker if you don&#8217;t have anything around but cards.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve planned for it, you have some time to get a <a title="6 Valentine’s Day Sex Games That Don’t Break The Bank" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/6-valentines-day-sex-games-that-dont-break-the-bank/">sex game</a> that you can give as a gift. Cosmo&#8217;s Steamy Sex Games is an inventive card game, while there are many sexy board games that will get you and your lover exploring brand new things. Even something as simple as dirty dice can be hotter on Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<h3>3. The Honey Game</h3>
<p>This is an excellent <a title="Deliciously Steamy Foreplay Moves To Use On Your Girl TONIGHT!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/foreplay-videos-tips/deliciously-steamy-foreplay-moves-to-use-on-your-girl-tonight/">foreplay</a> sex game if you and your partner want to have some fun this Valentine&#8217;s Day but can&#8217;t or don&#8217;t want to spend a lot of money. Simply take a dab of honey, smear it in a small area on your body, blindfold your partner and let them try to find the dab of honey with their mouth!</p>
<p>This is incredibly sensual, because you&#8217;ll get to feel your lover&#8217;s hot mouth all over your body! They&#8217;ll really enjoy it as well, because you&#8217;re going to give them something super special (and sexy) when they find the prize.</p>
<h3>4. A Striptease</h3>
<p>Ladies, don&#8217;t underestimate the value of a <a title="Striptease Tips: How To Give Him A Lap Dance He Won’t EVER Forget!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/foreplay-videos-tips/striptease-tips-how-to-give-him-a-lapdance-he-wont-ever-forget/">striptease</a> for your lover on Valentine&#8217;s Day. The idea itself may seem played out, but unless you give your man a striptease every single day of his life (which we&#8217;re willing to bet that you <em>don&#8217;t</em>) then it&#8217;s an incredible gift and you should definitely do it!</p>
<p>Guys love to look at women. They love to look at naked women (or women in lingerie) even more. They like to look at naked women <em>dancing </em>the most! Surprise your partner with a well put together striptease (because a crappy one that shows you haven&#8217;t practiced or put any effort into it at all is just insulting) and he&#8217;ll really enjoy it! Plus, it&#8217;s free!</p>
<h3>5. Really Good Wine And A Babysitter</h3>
<p>Again, this is one of those things that seem played out, or the go-to if you can&#8217;t think of anything better. However, this is honestly one of the best Valentine&#8217;s Day gifts out there! You really don&#8217;t want to underestimate how great really good wine (and a babysitter if you have little ones) is for Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p>Life is hectic, especially with jobs, kids, grocery shopping, paying bills and other day to day stuff that seems to suck the life out of you and your partner. So plan a quiet evening at home and enjoy some really, really good wine. Go ahead, splurge on your favorite. Relax. You&#8217;ll enjoy this <a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day gift</a> as much as your partner, because once she&#8217;s relaxed and the kids aren&#8217;t in the house, it&#8217;s <em>game on. </em></p>
<h3>6. A Fantasy Box</h3>
<p>Explore your <a title="Sexy Valentine’s Day Ideas – Sexy Games for Couples" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/sexy-valentines-day-ideas-sexy-games-for-couples-video/">sexual fantasies</a> in a non-threatening way this Valentine&#8217;s Day with a simple fantasy box. Decorate an empty tissue box with all kinds of Valentine&#8217;s Day themed paper, glitter and cutouts and proceed to write your sexiest fantasies on paper and drop them in the box.</p>
<p>Have your lover do the same! After dinner when you&#8217;re getting started with foreplay, take turns pulling out the slips and acting out what is written down. You&#8217;ll probably get a few surprises this way, and you&#8217;ll definitely be having fun.</p>
<h3>7. A Hot Video</h3>
<p>Ladies, buckle down and make an <a title="Porn: How To Make Your Own (And Make It Great)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/porn-adult-movies-erotica/porn-how-to-make-your-own-and-make-it-great/">amateur porn</a> for your lover. If you can&#8217;t manage that, at least give him some sexy photos to look at. Yes, your man looks at naked women. Yes, he&#8217;d rather be looking at you naked, but he certainly can&#8217;t do that if you don&#8217;t give him any material to look at! Give him the gift of <em>you </em>for Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> sucks if you&#8217;re single. You definitely don&#8217;t want to be alone, hanging out at your house like you normally do every other day, while everyone else goes out and has fun with their significant other (or just an &#8220;other&#8221;) This year, commit to going out! Ask out the woman you&#8217;ve had your eye on for Valentine&#8217;s Day and you won&#8217;t be alone! Here&#8217;s how to do it.</p>
<h3>Leave Roses And A Note In Her Car</h3>
<p>Grab a bouquet of roses and write a simple note with your phone number on it. Plainly state, &#8220;I would love to take you out for Valentine&#8217;s Day. Give me a call!&#8221; Don&#8217;t be too lovey dovey or pushy in your note, because the flowers add enough intensity to this scenario &#8211; too much and you&#8217;ll scare her off.</p>
<p>Also, meeting her at her car, say when she gets off work, with flowers and <a title="Q&amp;A: How To Gain The Confidence To Ask A Girl Out" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/qa-how-to-gain-the-confidence-to-ask-a-girl-out/">asking her out</a> in person is also very sweet and acceptable. If you don&#8217;t want to get rejected in person and you think there&#8217;s a possibility of that, the note works well for that.</p>
<h3>Send Flowers To Her Work</h3>
<p><a title="Valentine’s Day Checklist – What To Do (And What NOT To Do)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentine%E2%80%99s-day-checklist-what-to-do-and-what-not-to-do/">Flowers</a> are an excellent way to get a lady to warm up to you, as long as they&#8217;re not too extravagant and obviously expensive. Bigger is not better here &#8211; however, taking note of her personal style and taste and selecting flowers that you genuinely believe she&#8217;ll like <em>is. </em>Take some time to select a nice bouquet with her favorite flowers and colors and have it delivered to her workplace.</p>
<p>You can put &#8220;from your secret admirer&#8221; if you like (this is almost always exciting for a woman, because in all honesty, it rarely ever happens for real) but make sure to include your phone number so she can get back to you. The great thing about sending it to work is that you&#8217;ll be making certain that all her work friends (and frienemies) see it. This will make her feel intensely special, and they&#8217;ll also put some good natured pressure on her to accept your offer.</p>
<h3>Text Her To Meet You Somewhere Romantic</h3>
<p>If you already have her phone number, this is an excellent way to meet her to ask her out in person. Send her a text asking her to meet you somewhere <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romantic</a> &#8211; but not too romantic if you think it might scare her off. Meet at the park under your favorite tree, by a lake or river, or anywhere else nature can help you out a little.</p>
<p>If your local grocery store has a large Valentine&#8217;s Day section &#8211; may of them inflate balloons and let them float up to the ceiling, creating an entire section of surreal pink and red floating ribbon &#8211; you can meet there (this really only works if the atmosphere is super appealing).</p>
<h3>In A Scavenger Hunt</h3>
<p>Send your potential <a title="6 Simple Valentine’s Day Date Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-6-simple-date-ideas/">date</a> on a scavenger hunt, with lots of little notes that lead either to another note with a big reveal or you, holding flowers. Make sure the &#8220;gold at the end of the rainbow&#8221; is fun and exciting enough to have made it worth the hunt. Just use your creativity for this one!</p>
<p>Use the notes to write fun clues as to where to find the next clues. With each note, include something small, like a rose petal (to indicate that the big reveal might include roses) or candy. When she reaches the reveal, either use a note to ask her out for <a title="Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Her (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-10-valentines-day-gift-ideas-for-her-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>, or do it in person. Again, don&#8217;t put too much pressure on her to respond. Have a card in your pocket with your phone number on it that you can pull out and say, &#8220;Think about it and call me if you&#8217;re interested&#8221; if she chokes.</p>
<p>Remember, if she seems uncomfortable or reluctant at all, you want to use the card. You may still get turned down, but there&#8217;s a good chance she was just nervous or didn&#8217;t know what to say or do when put on the spot like that. If you slip her your number and allow her some time to calm down and think about what happened, you give her a reprieve.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t, she is much more likely to turn you down because she felt uncomfortable. If you do, you&#8217;ll increase your chances of her calling you and letting you know that she really loved what you did, but was really nervous and shy while it was happening.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is approaching, and you need to get busy! Planning something great takes time, and you don&#8217;t want to wait until the last minute. If you&#8217;re stuck on Valentine&#8217;s Day gift ideas and don&#8217;t want to re-visit last year&#8217;s dinner-and-a-movie theme, take a few minutes to check out these fun and fresh ideas!</p>
<h3>Valentine&#8217;s Day Breakfast</h3>
<p>Surprise your partner with a Valentine&#8217;s Day breakfast. If you can, call in for your sweetie (or arrange the day off beforehand without your partner&#8217;s knowledge) and wake them up with your special <a title="Little Everyday Things that Keep Romance Alive" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/little-everyday-things-that-keep-romance-alive/">breakfast in bed</a>. If they absolutely can&#8217;t get out of work, make the effort to have it ready about a half hour earlier than they typically wake up.</p>
<p>Some great suggestions for a breakfast would be red and food colored anything, but why not whip up a batch of heart shaped pancakes? These are super simple &#8211; just pour your normal pancake batter into a heart shape (you don&#8217;t need a special pan or anything) and flip. Voila! Top with whipped cream and strawberries.</p>
<h3>Homemade Fortune Cookies</h3>
<p>These are a super sweet and personalized Valentine&#8217;s Day idea that is incredibly inexpensive! You may have to spend a few bucks if you don&#8217;t have a pantry stocked with the normal baking goods, but this is still by far one of the most creative yet inexpensive <a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day gift ideas</a> that ever existed. Search for videos on how to make them (many people have posted video walk throughs of how to make fortune cookies on popular video sharing websites) and have a crack at it while your partner is out of town.</p>
<p>Type out some personal fortunes and print them out, cutting them to the size of a normal fortune. If you need bigger, just fold it in half when you put it in the cookie. Another special touch would be tinting the batter with pink or red food coloring, or dipping them in chocolate and Valentine&#8217;s Day sprinkles after the cookies are cooked and firm. Wrap them up in a nice box and tissue paper and you&#8217;ve got a really special gift that didn&#8217;t cost hardly anything!</p>
<h3>Love Coupons</h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t underestimate the power of <a title="4 Ways To Have A Romantic Anniversary" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/romance-tips-4-ways-to-have-a-romantic-anniversary/">love coupons</a>! These again, are really ridiculously inexpensive, but are worth their weight in gold if you actually follow through with them. Read: you absolutely have to follow through with them. Love coupons are worthless if you&#8217;ve done it before and either complained or didn&#8217;t do what you had promised to do when your partner &#8220;cashed in&#8221; their coupon.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re into graphic design at all (heck, even if you aren&#8217;t, there are tons of free clip art pictures and fonts you can use), create something really visually intriguing and personalized. Put your lover&#8217;s name on them. Sign your name. Be creative! Just make sure that when your partner <em>does </em>cash in their coupons, that you do what it says on the coupon with a smile on your face!</p>
<h3>Handmade Chocolates</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re going to do <a title="Eat Your Way To Better Sex - 6 Foods That Will Boost Your Libido" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/eat-your-way-to-better-sex-6-foods-that-will-boost-your-libido/">chocolates</a> for Valentine&#8217;s Day, do them right. Don&#8217;t buy a box of Russell Stover from your local Walgreens and expect it to go over well. It won&#8217;t. Why not try your hand at making homemade chocolates?</p>
<p>This is actually quite easy to do and you can find a ton of recipes online. While you might think that making truffles and caramels are out of your reach, they&#8217;re really not. And making them yourself will be so much more special than buying a box &#8211; and they&#8217;ll be more delicious! You can personalize them by piping your love&#8217;s initials on the chocolates, or using her favorite flavors. If you&#8217;re really into it, try creating some decadent confections such as champagne truffles or tuxedo strawberries.</p>
<h3>Re-Do The Bedroom</h3>
<p>If <a title="6 Types Of Sex You Need To Try – Tonight!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/6-types-of-sex-you-need-to-try-tonight/">sex</a> is going to be the big thing on Valentine&#8217;s Day, try re-doing the bedroom to give it a great Valentine&#8217;s Day look and feel. Buy some red or pink sheets and bedding and re-do the bed. Have bouquets all around, or rose petals covering as many surfaces as possible. Many florists will sell bags of petals that have fallen off the buds for a discounted price.</p>
<p>You can also have a bag of balloons inflated and tie really long, curly ribbon to them. The balloons will float up to the ceiling and the curly ribbon will hang down, making your lover feel like they&#8217;re in a Valentine&#8217;s Day wonderland. Pair all these ideas together and you&#8217;ve got a bedroom makeover that will make your lover&#8217;s jaw drop!</p>
<h3>Valentine&#8217;s Day Gift Basket</h3>
<p>A pre-made gift basket is <em>not </em>where you want to go on this one. This is another homemade Valentine&#8217;s Day gift idea, but it&#8217;s actually really easy to put together. Figure out a &#8220;theme&#8221; for your gift basket. If you&#8217;re going sexy, make a gift basket out of sex toys, lubes, candies and <a title="6 Lingerie Items He REALLY Wants To See You Wear" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/6-lingerie-items-he-really-wants-to-see-you-wear/">lingerie</a>! If you&#8217;ve got a &#8220;lovey-dovey&#8221; theme going, fill your basket with chocolates, strawberries, champagne and photos of you and your honey.</p>
<p>A gift basket can be anything you want it to be! Just use your imagination. Some things to keep in mind though to keep it from being lackluster are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Get a big basket. A rinky dinky one just won&#8217;t do.</li>
<li>Do not underestimate the power of tissue paper and paper crinkles as a filler.</li>
<li>Color coordinate. Yeah, it&#8217;s lame. But they&#8217;ll love it.</li>
<li>Make sure to wrap the outside with gift basket wrap and a big Valentine&#8217;s Day bow to complete the look! Better yet, attach a bouquet of balloons to the top.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> isn&#8217;t all about her, it&#8217;s about him too! Surprise him with romantic Valentine&#8217;s Day poems (yes, he&#8217;ll love it and here&#8217;s why!)</p>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is a day where you can express how much you <a title="How To Say “I Love You” For The First Time On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-how-to-say-i-love-you-for-the-first-time/">love</a> your partner. Men all over the world celebrate it by giving gifts, cooking dinners and sending flowers to their partner&#8217;s work. But what about your guy? Despite what you may thing, guys need to be told how much you love them too.</p>
<p>Men love a woman that tells them how much they care about them and February 14th is the perfect time to do so. Writing Valentine&#8217;s Day poems for your man will show you how much you love them and make them feel special. If you have never written Valentine&#8217;s Day poems before, there are a few things that you should know before you get started!</p>
<h3>Do It From The Heart</h3>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day poems are not acceptable unless they are written from the heart. Sincerity is the key. When you pen something that is overly embellished, your guy will know that you&#8217;re not being sincere. Think about all of the qualities that you love about him and try to express them in your poem. Talk about your first date or other aspects of your <a title="10 Tips for Surviving Valentine’s Day Whether You’re Single or Attached" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/10-tips-for-surviving-valentines-day-whether-youre-single-or-attached/">relationship</a>. Try to make it as sincere as possible, but do not under embellish either.</p>
<h3>Avoid Cliches</h3>
<p>Cliches like “we have a love more vast than the sands of time” can come off as extremely cheesy. Avoid any cliches that you have heard before. Cliches do not sound sincere and can easily be mistaken for laziness. You want your partner to feel appreciated, not like you took a shortcut on his gift. Using metaphors is a great method to writing <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">Valentine&#8217;s Day poems</a>, but be careful that you&#8217;re not using common cliches with your metaphors. The same rule applies to similes so watch out for these mistakes.</p>
<h3>Mention The Little Things</h3>
<p>Talk about the little things that you love about him. Whether this is how he brushes your hair out of your eyes, <a title="10 Valentine’s Day Kissing Tips" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/10-valentines-day-kissing-tips/">kisses</a> you softly every night before you fall asleep or holds you tight when you&#8217;re scared, bring these qualities to your poem. Not only will this get your emotions going, he will feel appreciated. Love is not about the monetary items that your partner buys you, it&#8217;s about the little things. Telling him that you love the little things that he does for you will show your dedication to him in it&#8217;s most sincere form.</p>
<h3>Avoid Rhyming</h3>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day poems do not have to rhyme. Some of the most famous ones do not even have rhyme schemes. Don&#8217;t feel pressured to rhyme the words in your poem. Sometimes the rhyming can even take away from the poem. Having one that does not rhyme can come off as less cheesy and more <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romantic</a>. If you decide to pen one that does rhyme, keep it consistent throughout the poem. Choose a rhyme scheme that you feel comfortable with and take it from there.</p>
<h3>Choose Your Words Well</h3>
<p>Choose your words carefully. When you&#8217;re writing Valentine&#8217;s Day poems you don&#8217;t want the poem to come off the wrong way. If you don&#8217;t know what a word means, look it up. The last thing that you want to do is offend your partner with your gift. Choose words that are romantic and masculine to make him feel like a man. If you are too corny with your poem, you could embarrass him.</p>
<h3>Be Funny</h3>
<p>Another route to take is to do a funny poem. These come off as fun and do not run the risk of being too cheesy or making him uncomfortable. When you&#8217;re coming up with funny Valentine&#8217;s Day poems, it&#8217;s best to have a rhyme scheme (even though we suggested not to earlier). This shows off your sense of humor while also <a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">giving him a gift</a> he will love. If you have a good funny bone in you, consider being humorous <em>and </em>romantic instead of just romantic.</p>
<p>Writing Valentine&#8217;s Day poems for your partner can be a rewarding way to show him how much you love him. If you don&#8217;t research the words that you&#8217;re using with your poem, you might turn him off immediately. The same can happen if you don&#8217;t do it from the heart. Valentine&#8217;s Day is not all about gifts, but this is a gift that you are constructing from your heart. Because it&#8217;s coming from your heart, you should put time and effort into it. Follow these simple guidelines and your gift will be a real hit with your fella!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> doesn&#8217;t mean you&#8217;re the only one who gets presents. Here are six excellent suggestions for Valentine&#8217;s Day gifts for your fella.</p>
<p>Choosing Valentine&#8217;s Day gifts for your partner might seem like a daunting task. Finding the right balance of love and necessity is essential to giving him a gift that he will not only love, but use. February 14th is geared more toward women, but men can easily feel left out when their significant other does not reciprocate with a present.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re stressed for ideas, we have a couple of suggestions. When it comes to guys, you either want to give him something that will improve his life, or get him turned on. For women, <a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day gifts</a> are usually about flash. This is different for men.</p>
<h3>1. Gift Cards</h3>
<p>Yes, they are one of the most impersonal Valentine&#8217;s Day gifts that you can give anybody. However, giving a guy a gift card allows him to choose something that he would like. Gift cards to electronics stores or sporting goods stores are the best because even if he doesn&#8217;t need something, there&#8217;s always something that he will want. If you want to make it a little more personal, buy a card and tell him how much you <a title="How To Say “I Love You” For The First Time On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-how-to-say-i-love-you-for-the-first-time/">love</a> him in the card.</p>
<h3>2. Tools</h3>
<p>What guy wouldn&#8217;t love a new set of tools as his Valentines Day gifts? Tools are a great gift for guys because it helps them feel manly. If your guy has been eyeing a new power saw or belt sander, consider what he could be doing around the house for you once he has them.</p>
<p>Men like to fix things and they are usually pretty good at it. Why not give him the gift of repair with a brand new power tool? Ask him what he needs and then sneakily go to the hardware store on your way home from work. You will put a smile on his face and he&#8217;ll have a great Valentine&#8217;s Day.</p>
<h3>3. Lingerie</h3>
<p>Men love women who dress up for them in the bedroom. If you have some ratty old <a title="How To Buy Erotic Lingerie For Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/how-to-buy-erotic-lingerie-for-valentines-day/">lingerie</a> that you never wear anymore, it&#8217;s probably time for an upgrade. Head out to your favorite lingerie store and buy an outfit that you know he will love.</p>
<p>Men love women in black, red and white lingerie so try a few different outfits on. After you have dinner, go to the bathroom and change. Walk into the living room to deliver your present to him. He will not only be surprised, he will be grateful that you&#8217;ve done something he’s been wanting for a long time.</p>
<h3>4. Sporting Goods</h3>
<p>Every guy has a sport that he loves. Whether he&#8217;s a tennis freak or plays in a soccer league, you can easily get on his good side this Valentine&#8217;s Day with some new sporting goods. Ask him a month or so before Valentine&#8217;s Day if he needs a new racquet, shin guards or whatever is applicable to his sport.</p>
<p>Do your own research on the best equipment and consult some local sporting goods stores on what your guy will need. Don&#8217;t spend out of your budget, but get him something that will last.</p>
<h3>5. A Trip</h3>
<p>Have the two of you always wanted to go somewhere, but just couldn&#8217;t find the time? Surprise your husband or boyfriend with a map that has the route to the place you want to go traced out. This is a great delivery instead of just saying, “We&#8217;re headed to Vegas!”</p>
<p>Another way to do this is to give him an envelope with the receipt for the hotel reservations in it. When he opens the envelope, you will see wonderment that eventually turns to excitement. A trip is technically a gift for the both of you, but you taking the initiative to finally get around to it will be enough to give him an awesome Valentine&#8217;s Day.</p>
<h3>6. Coupon Books</h3>
<p>Coupon books have become a staple of Valentine&#8217;s Day, birthdays and other holiday events. If you haven&#8217;t given your boyfriend or husband a coupon book, it is a cheap and easy way to make him happy. Create a coupon book online or with construction paper for different things you know he likes.</p>
<p><a title="Erotic Massage: How Erotic Touch Can Turn Up the Heat in Your Bedroom" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/foreplay-videos-tips/erotic-massage-how-erotic-touch-can-turn-up-the-heat-in-your-bedroom/">Erotic massages</a>, nights out, and a day without chores are just the beginning. These books are personalized and make for a great gift that any guy will enjoy. You can even throw in a few <a title="6 Types Of Sex You Need To Try – Tonight!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/6-types-of-sex-you-need-to-try-tonight/">sex</a> coupons to keep things intimate. Coupon books also make for a good accompanying gift. If you have already bought something for him, consider tossing this in as an added bonus because you love him so much.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> can be one of the most dreaded days of the year for men. This is a day that men have to be on their toes in order to get he right amount of romance out there for their girlfriends. In an effort to change it up a little, why don’t you do something that he will like?</p>
<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day ideas</a> that he will love aren’t something that usually spring to mind on that special day in February so we’re going to give you a few starters to help you. Here are some great things your man will love.</p>
<h3>Go Out On A Traditional Date</h3>
<p>Traditional dates allow your fella to take you out and cater to you. Believe it or not, men like taking their girlfriends or wives out on the town. Let him plan all of the events. Whether you’re having dinner at a new restaurant or an old favorite, allowing him to plan the evening will make him feel like a man. Try wearing a new outfit on your <a title="6 Simple Valentine’s Day Date Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-6-simple-date-ideas/">date</a> or wear something that you know he loves you in.</p>
<h3>Have A Quiet Night</h3>
<p>There’s nothing like a quiet night at home with the man that you <a title="How To Say “I Love You” For The First Time On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-how-to-say-i-love-you-for-the-first-time/">love</a>. Valentine&#8217;s Day can be a real hassle with making reservations, spending excessive money and competing with other couples for a table at a restaurant. One of the many things he will love on Valentine&#8217;s Day is to have him for you at home.</p>
<p>Valentines Day is about being together, no matter where you are. Remember that staying is also the shortest distance to the bedroom. Rent your favorite romantic movie and watch it together in bed. Chances are you won’t make it through the first 20 minutes.</p>
<h3>Visit A Comedy Club</h3>
<p>Who doesn&#8217;t like a comedy club? You get out of the house and you get have a few laughs. Valentine&#8217;s Day can be a very <a title="How To Have Romantic Sex On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-how-to-have-romantic-sex/">romantic</a>, but why not spice things up with a different kind of night? Instead of having your partner shower you with gifts have him take you to a comedy club. You will both have fun while still keeping things romantic. Have a couple of drinks and enjoy the show together.</p>
<p>There is a lot of pressure to make the day great for you. Take some of the pressure off and just enjoy the evening with your partner. He will appreciate the fact that you’re not materialistic or hung up traditional Valentine&#8217;s Day stuff.</p>
<h3>Throw A Party</h3>
<p>A party is a great way to celebrate the holiday. Parties not only allow you to catch with your friends, it will allow him to have fun with his best buddies too. Invite some of your single friends and tell him to do the same. You can both have fun watching everybody mingle while entertaining. Decorate your house with some fun décor to set the mood.</p>
<p>Red and pink heart banners and a Valentine&#8217;s Day cake are essential for your party. Make sure that you have enough food and beverages for everybody. Having finger foods making it BYOB is a less expensive way to <a title="How To Spend Valentine’s Day If You’re Single" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/how-to-spend-valentines-day-if-youre-single/">throw a party</a>. Best of all, your lover will enjoy a different kind of February 14th.</p>
<h3>Plan A Getaway</h3>
<p>We all lead busy lives, but a getaway might be one of the best Valentine&#8217;s Day ideas for the both of you. This could take some planning so decide where you want to go a month or two in advance. February is a great month to get up to the mountains.</p>
<p>The snow is beautiful and you can <a title="Cuddling After Sex – 3 Reasons Women Love It And Guys Should Do It" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/cuddling-after-sex-3-reasons-women-love-it-and-guys-should-do-it/">cuddle</a> up by a fire together. If you’re not much for the mountains, take a trip to a beach. The beach in the winter can be very romantic. A nice bed and breakfast can be extremely romantic. Whatever choice you make, he’ll love getting away with you even it’s just for a day or so.</p>
<h3>Surprises</h3>
<p>This works really well with men as a Valentine&#8217;s Day idea. Tell him that you don’t want to do anything! He’ll probably question you, but just reiterate that you have a lot going on and you would just like to stay in.</p>
<p>After he gets off work, tell him to get dressed and take him out to a <a title="5 Cheap Valentine’s Day Surprises For Your Partner – For Under $10" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/cheap-valentines-day-surprises-for-your-partner/">surprise dinner</a> at his favorite restaurant. This is a great way to show your man that you love him on Valentine&#8217;s Day. He’ll be surprised and excited that you’ve gone to the trouble of planning a date that he will enjoy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="I’m Alone On Valentine’s Day! What Should I Do?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/im-alone-on-valentines-day-what-should-i-do/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is known as the &#8220;love&#8221; holiday, but do you have to be with someone to enjoy it? No way! Check out these Valentine&#8217;s Day ideas for singles.</p>
<p>Whether you&#8217;ve gone through a recent <a title="Q&amp;A: Staying Friends After A Break Up – Is It Possible? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/break-up-and-divorce/qa-staying-friends-after-a-break-up-is-it-possible-video/">break up</a> or you just haven&#8217;t found that special guy, Valentine&#8217;s Day can be a very somber affair. If you thought that this February 14th would be filled with chocolates, flowers and other gifts only to find that you&#8217;re all alone, you might be searching for some alternatives to help you get through it.</p>
<p>This is a time that is generally geared toward couples, but there are a lot of options out there for singles also. Don&#8217;t get hung up on the 14th of February just because you don&#8217;t have a significant other right now. Push away the thought of spending your night eating ice cream straight from the bin. Take advantage of the occasion with some alternatives for <a title="Top 10 Dating Questions for Singles " href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/top-10-dating-questions-for-singles/">singles</a>.</p>
<h3>Throw A Party</h3>
<p>Throw a party at your house for all of your single friends if your find yourself alone on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Throwing a party can be one of the best ways to spend the holiday with other people who are in the same boat as you. Make a rule that no couples can be at the party and tell all of your friends to bring a single friend.</p>
<p>This will get people mingling and could help you meet a new flame. Since you&#8217;re going to be the host you will have a lot of the attention put on you. This is an awesome way to get over recent break ups and really put yourself back out there on a day that could have been spend wallowing in your grief.</p>
<h3>Go Out Anyways!</h3>
<p>So you don&#8217;t have a guy by your side, who cares? It doesn&#8217;t matter that you&#8217;re <a title="How To Survive Being Single This Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/how-to-survive-being-single-this-valentines-day/">single on Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> because there are tons of people who are also looking for a way to avoid the love-fest. Get a few of your friends together and head to out a night club that you normally wouldn&#8217;t go to. This will not only get you out of the house, but it will put you in a place that you&#8217;ve never been before.</p>
<p>We all have our favorite bars or clubs that we like to go to, but why not take a chance on this Valentine&#8217;s Day and expand your horizons? Going to a bar or night club that you&#8217;ve never been to will increase the chance that you meet new flame.</p>
<h3>Take A Day For Yourself</h3>
<p>If you know that you&#8217;re going to be alone on Valentine&#8217;s Day, take a day for yourself. Make plans to take off work for the day and do something that you want to do. Maybe you want to spend the entire day in bed catching up on old TV shows. Maybe you want to finally get started on the indoor garden that should have been done a month ago.</p>
<p>Maybe you want to take a trip to the next city over and do some outlet shopping. No matter what you want to do, make sure that you&#8217;re doing it. Being alone on Valentine&#8217;s Day doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to sit around depressed. We rarely get a day all to ourselves so make it your day.</p>
<h3>Go On A Blind Date</h3>
<p><a title="Q&amp;A: Blind Date Tips (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/qa-blind-date-tips-video/">Blind dates</a> can be invigorating and scary at the same time. If you have a friend or coworker that has been dying to set you up on a blind date, finally take the chance to indulge them. Remember that just because a friend wants you to date somebody that they know doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to take it any further than a <a title="Top Things Men Do To Screw Up A First Date" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/top-things-men-do-to-screw-up-a-first-dat/">first date</a>.</p>
<p>Make it a point to not have a throw away date with the guy. Treat him with respect and not just a way to get through your Valentine&#8217;s Day blues. Remember that he&#8217;s a friend of a friend so your conduct will get to your friend. You never know, he might actually wind up being a potential <a title="Top Things Women Do To Screw Up A Long Term Relationship" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/top-things-women-do-to-screw-up-a-long-term-relationship/">relationship</a>.</p>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day can be a drag if you&#8217;re alone, but it doesn&#8217;t have to be. Finding ways to keep yourself entertained so the depression stay at bay is essential for your sanity. Throwing a party is a good way to have a low pressure event at your own home while avoiding couples. Throwing caution to the wind and hitting the town can put things in perspective. You will find a lot of singles that go out on Valentine&#8217;s Day despite not having a significant other.</p>
<p>Taking a day for yourself or going on a blind date are other ways to stay active on a day could be dismal. Whatever you choose to do, be proactive in keeping yourself busy. Don&#8217;t allow yourself to think about recent break ups or the unrealistic thought of being alone forever. Take a risk and turn this Valentine&#8217;s Day into a fun social occasion.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is the perfect time to tell your partner you love them. But if it&#8217;s the first time, it can be nerve wracking! Here&#8217;s how to break the ice.</p>
<p>So you&#8217;ve been dating a girl for a couple of months and everything is going great. Now it’s time those three words that make every guy quiver. “<a title="Valentine’s Day – 8 Creative Ways To Say I Love You" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-8-creative-ways-to-say-i-love-you-video/">I love you</a>.” Telling a girl that you love her can be one of the most nerve wracking moments in any relationship. Naturally, the relationship has to move forward in order to sustain itself, but this is the moment when it’s truly fight or flight.</p>
<p>Many guys fear this situation because they don’t know if the girl is going to say it back. This anxiety can be overcome when you truly know that a girl loves you. If you are at that point and you want to say it, Valentine&#8217;s Day could be a great occasion.</p>
<h3>Decide If This Is What You Want</h3>
<p>Telling a girl that you&#8217;re in love on Valentine&#8217;s Day is a huge step. When it feels right, you should go for it. If it doesn&#8217;t feel right then you might want to hold off. Never say &#8220;I love you&#8221; because you think that it will fix something in the <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">relationship</a> or that you &#8220;should.&#8221; This can be very powerful and the last thing that you want is to give a girl the wrong idea, especially on Valentine&#8217;s Day. If you feel like you are in love with her and you think that she’s in love with you then go for it! If not, reevaluate whether or not you want to say I love you to your girlfriend.</p>
<h3>Setting The Environment</h3>
<p>Saying &#8220;I love you&#8221; for the first time has to be special. This doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to do some Hollywood rom-com reenactment, but it also doesn’t mean that you should say it in sweatpants. Make reservations at a restaurant for Valentine&#8217;s Day. Make sure that the restaurant is a little nicer than you would normally go to. Nobody wants to be told &#8220;I love you&#8221; for the first time at Applebee’s.</p>
<h3>Be Gentlemanly</h3>
<p>Before you pick her up, clean out your car. Make sure that the car smells good, is vacuumed and dusted. The last thing that you want is her smelling old gym clothes or rummaging through coffee cups. When you pick her up, open the car door for her. Help her out of the car and open the door to the restaurant for her. When you get inside the restaurant, allow her to follow the hostess to the table and then pull her chair for her. Being a gentleman is essential to making her feel like she’s special. If you&#8217;re going to your house, make sure the cleanliness extends there as well.</p>
<h3>Make Good Conversation</h3>
<p>Making good conversation is the best way to keep the mood light and <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romantic</a>. Asking about how her day was and how work is going for her will allow her to vent if needed. This is good because it helps you get into the frame of mind that you need to be in for the infamous three words. This helps you to hold back from it out at the wrong time also. Stick to topics that you both have an interest in. There is a time and place for conflict in every relationship; however, this is not one of those times. Keep the conversation humorous and fun to set the tone for the rest of the evening.</p>
<h3>Pay The Bill</h3>
<p>Are you really going to split the bill on Valentine&#8217;s Day and then tell her that you <a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">love</a> her? That’s ridiculous. Make sure that you have enough money to pay the entire check. For guys, this kind of comes with the territory. It’s a little more classy to put the bill on a credit card or debit card than to flop a wad of mangled cash out of your pocket, so take this into consideration.</p>
<h3>Saying It</h3>
<p>All right, so now it’s time for the big show. You have paid the bill, you&#8217;ve had a nice evening and now it’s time say it. After you leave the restaurant, make sure that you have nice breath. Pop a small mint. This is easier than grinding your teeth together on a piece of gum. Walk her back to your car and then open the door for her. Before she gets in give her a <a title="10 Valentine’s Day Kissing Tips" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/10-valentines-day-kissing-tips/">kiss</a> and say it. More than likely she will say it back. After you say it she will know what the evening has been about and she will appreciate all of the effort that you put into making it special for her.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is all about romance, and it should extend past dinner and a movie and into the bedroom. Here&#8217;s how to have romantic sex on the 14th!</p>
<p>Sex can go a lot of ways. There are women out there that like their sex to be really dirty and there are women out there who love <a title="How To Make After-Sex Moments Romantic" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/how-to-make-after-sex-moments-romantic/">romantic sex</a>. There is a time and a place for everything. Having romantic sex can bring you closer to your girlfriend or wife and really keep the relationship fresh. It&#8217;s also a great way to have sex on Valentine&#8217;s Day! This is much different than breaking out the sex swing or an arsenal of silicone toys on February 14th. If your girlfriend or wife is stressing the need for more romantic sex, here is a short guide to help you out.</p>
<h3>Leave The Sex Toys At The Door</h3>
<p>Romantic sex is all about the two of you, not the vibrating piece of jelly in the drawer. When you’re having romantic sex you want to incorporate your body as much as possible. Vibrators, dildos, <a title="Sex Toys: What Is Your Favorite Cock Ring? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/sex-toys-what-is-your-favorite-cock-ring-video/">cock rings</a> and anything else that you purchased from a sex shop should be left out of the equation. Protection and lubricant are the only exceptions to this rule. A toy can easily take away from your ability to please her. She can always whip out the vibrator when she’s in a jam, but she can’t always have you there. Having romantic sex means that YOU satisfy her needs.</p>
<h3>Set The Mood</h3>
<p>Setting the mood is one of the biggest things with <a title="What’s The Best Time To Have Sex?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/what%E2%80%99s-the-best-time-to-have-sex/">having sex</a>. You don’t have to have music, but it helps. Choose something with a slower beat if you are going to use music. Pick up around the bedroom before you start in. Having dirty clothes, old cups or anything else that could detract from the deed is best when you want to set the mood. Close the curtains and light a candle or two if you have them. Decorate with Valentine&#8217;s Day stuff like balloons, confetti and champagne and strawberries if you have the funds. You want to make the room as calm as possible when you’re having romantic sex. This will put you and her at ease.</p>
<h3>Take Her Clothes Off For Her</h3>
<p>When you’re just looking for a <a title="Top 10 Best Places To Have A Quickie (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/top-10-best-places-to-have-a-quickie-video/">quickie</a>, you probably rip your clothes off and jump into bed. Instead of getting right down to it, take her clothes off for her and do it slowly. Start with her shirt. If she has a button down on then this can be even better. Unbutton each button slowly as you <a title="Q&amp;A: Kissing Tips (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/kissing-how-to-kiss/qa-kissing-tips-video/">kiss</a> her. Work your way down to her pants and take them off slowly. Take off her pants and her shirt before you go for the bra and panties. As you take one article of clothing off of her, she should be taking one off of you. This slows the process down and leads to very romantic sex.</p>
<h3>Engage In Foreplay</h3>
<p><a title="Amazing Foreplay Tips To Drive Her Crazy! Warning – These Will Turbo-Charge Her Sexual Desires!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/foreplay-videos-tips/amazing-foreplay-tips-to-drive-her-crazy-warning-these-will-turbo-charge-her-sexual-desires/">Foreplay</a> is very romantic, especially on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Not only will this give the event a quick shot of romance, it will give her time to warm up. When you’re in the foreplay stage make sure that you focus on her lips and neck. Run your hands up and down her body slowly to get her turned on. Remember that women are not like men. They don’t from soft to hard in a matter of seconds. You have to slow things down to bring them to the edge. A lot of foreplay will lead to some of the most romantic sex you have ever had.</p>
<h3>No Crazy Sex Positions</h3>
<p>Romantic sex should not involve crazy <a title="Top 3 Sex Positions For Married Couples" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/best-sex-positions/top-3-sex-positions-for-married-couples/">sex positions</a>. The activity is about being close to each other, especially when you&#8217;re doing it on Valentine&#8217;s Day. If she has legs akimbo and a strain on her neck she’s not going to feel very romantic. Use positions that are fairly common, but focus on eye contact and intimacy. Missionary, girl on top and spooning are some of the best positions for romantic sex. Make sure that you’re staying as close to her as possible when you’re having sex so she feels connected to you. Hold her close as the two of you orgasm to make it even more romantic.</p>
<p>Romantic sex can be one of the best remedies for any relationship, and it&#8217;s exactly the right kind of sex to have on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Having the physical compatibility in the bedroom can translate to other aspects of your partnership. It’s important to remember that romantic sex should not involve toys or anything that you saw in a <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/porn-adult-movies-erotica/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porno</a>.</p>
<p>You want this to be an intimate affair between the two of you. Setting the mood can set a precedent for the type of sex that you’re going to have. When you use a lot of foreplay you can get bring her to the edge making it easier for her to orgasm. Following these simple rules will have you and your partner happy with the intimacy you’ve gained throughout your experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is approaching, and if you&#8217;re short on cash, homemade gift ideas are your best bet. They&#8217;re sweet and romantic, without breaking the bank. Plus, a homemade gift is much more special than any store bought one. Here are five you don&#8217;t want to pass up on.</p>
<h3>Chocolate Covered Strawberries</h3>
<p>No, you don&#8217;t have to make a trip to your local gourmet chocolate store and spend a ton of money to get a nice box of chocolate covered strawberries. These are easy to make at home and can be easily dressed up for Valentine&#8217;s Day with an inexpensive box and some tissue paper.</p>
<p>If you do have some money to spend, you definitely want to go quality here. Get quality, organic strawberries and high quality melting chocolate. Simply dip the strawberries in the melted chocolate and set on a piece of wax paper. Refrigerate until they&#8217;re hardened and then arrange them in your decorative box. Voila! Way better than any box of chocolates you buy at the store.</p>
<p>If you want to get creative, look up some recipes on how to use white and milk chocolate together. When you gift them to your partner, make sure to include <a title="Eat Your Way To Better Sex – 6 Foods That Will Boost Your Libido" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/eat-your-way-to-better-sex-6-foods-that-will-boost-your-libido/">eating them sensually</a> with a bottle of inexpensive champagne. That&#8217;s the best part of all!</p>
<h3>Budoir Photos</h3>
<p>Get your digital camera and take some sexy photos of yourself in <a title="6 Lingerie Items He REALLY Wants To See You Wear" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/6-lingerie-items-he-really-wants-to-see-you-wear/">lingerie</a> and then again, in various stages of undress. If you have a friend that you trust to do this, employ them to help you so you can get some better quality photos. Upload them to a free online video editor (or a really good program if you happen to have one, but free editors are good too) and fix blemishes, add a filter if you like or even make it black and white for a really great look.</p>
<p>Once they&#8217;re done, print them out on a home photo printer (no, these aren&#8217;t ones you can send to your local photo developer) and either frame a few of your favorites or put them in a special book for your lover. If you don&#8217;t have a photo printer, make a digital collage and send it to him with a sexy email. He will love being able to look at you instead of <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/porn-adult-movies-erotica/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porn</a> when he&#8217;s feeling randy. Of course, he&#8217;ll still look at porn too, but your photos are likely going to be his special favorite.</p>
<h3>Sex Coupons</h3>
<p>Sex coupons are always in style and extremely easy and inexpensive to make for Valentine&#8217;s Day. You can grab some construction paper, markers and glitter from the store if you want to go all out, or you can simply type them out, throw a few cute clip art photos on there and print them. Either way, <a title="6 Types Of Sex You Need To Try – Tonight!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/6-types-of-sex-you-need-to-try-tonight/">sex</a> coupons are an excellent option if you don&#8217;t have a lot of funds for the big day. Just make sure you actually follow through whenever your man wants to redeem them.</p>
<p>If he wants to redeem a coupon for a 30 minute long <a title="Blowjob Tip: How To Make Her Want To Give You More Oral Sex (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/oral-sex-videos-tips/blowjob-tip-how-make-her-want-to-give-you-more-oral-sex-video/">blowjob</a> and you say you&#8217;ve got a headache, it&#8217;s like you&#8217;ve taken his gift back to the store, just before he got to open it. So go through with whatever you put on your coupons, whenever your guy redeems them. Headache or not.</p>
<h3>Cook A Delectable, Candlelit Dinner</h3>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to go out to dinner on Valentine&#8217;s Day if you don&#8217;t want to brave the crowds or don&#8217;t have the cash for a decent reservation. Plan a meal that you can cook, and set the table. Most people actually don&#8217;t eat at the dining room table, so if you set the table with candles and everything, it&#8217;s going to seem almost &#8211; <em>almost &#8211; </em>like you&#8217;re at a restaurant. If you can&#8217;t cook, order out! Just make sure you&#8217;re sitting across the table from your beau without the distraction of the television, your phones, the computer, etc. To make it sexy, try cooking and eating while completely naked. Or, let him eat dinner <em>off </em>you.</p>
<h3>A Sexy Treasure Hunt</h3>
<p>Make your man go on a treasure hunt &#8211; with you as the treasure! Leave post-its with <a title="Q&amp;A: Tips For Talking Dirty – With Examples (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sexting-phone-sex/qa-tips-for-talking-">dirty messages</a> on them, or rose petals leading from the door all the way to the bedroom. Use your creativity to come up with a fun way for him to find you, so long as you&#8217;re waiting for him either naked or dressed in something very, very sexy. He will love the suspense of looking for you, only to find you ready and waiting for him!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is all about romance &#8211; but what do you do for a man? Here are some easy suggestions to do for your fella this Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p>Your boyfriend or husband is the love of your life. They leave little notes for you, they always to know what is bothering you and they pick up on things that you would have never expected. But how do you show them that you care? Being romantic with your boyfriend or husband can be pretty daunting when you have no idea how to go about it.</p>
<p>If you would like to show your guy how much you love him, here are a few ideas to help through the murky waters of <a title="3 Ways To Plan A Romantic Evening" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/romance-tips-3-ways-to-plan-a-romantic-evening/">romance</a> for a guy. You need to realize that flowers, little notes or fancy dinners don’t turn men on. To show your guy how much you love him, you need to take practicality by the hand. Here’s a short guide to simple romance that he will love.</p>
<h3>Tickets To His Fave Thing</h3>
<p>Tickets to a sporting even or a concert can be extremely romantic to a guy. If your guy has been wanting to make it out to a football game but can’t get tickets, you could go online and find some cheap nosebleed seats fairly quickly. Romance to a guy means nachos, face paint and jerseys. Remember that this is his day so let him be a guy.</p>
<h3>Let Him Teach Your Something</h3>
<p>Does your guy love doing something that you have no idea about? Does he have a mean tennis serve? Does he know how to fix the sink? Let him teach you how to do something. This let him take control while you learn how to do something that he has an interest in. While he is teaching you he will feel knowledgeable and this can make him feel like a real guy. This is the kind of romance that will get him going.</p>
<h3>Buy Something Small</h3>
<p>The next time that you’re at the grocery store buy something that you know he loves. This could be his favorite ice cream, his favorite soda or a special dinner he loves. This will show that you <a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">love</a> him. When you come back from the grocery store, surprise him with the item.</p>
<h3>Be There For Him</h3>
<p>Most guys can be insecure with their girlfriends and even their wives. If your guy is having a hard week at work, let him know that you’re there for him. Just telling him that you care can be enough reassurance to let him know that you’re not going to run away at the first sign of trouble.</p>
<h3>Have A “Him Day”</h3>
<p>Most guys will indulge their girlfriends or wives with a trip to the mall. Doesn&#8217;t guy dread going to mall while you spend hours trying on clothes? When was the last time that you went with him to an electronics store? Have a day set aside where you do everything that he wants to do. Has he been dying to go check out a new 3-D TV? Go with him. A lot of times, women tend to forgo trips to stores with their guys. Go with him. You never know, you might find something that you need.</p>
<h3>Take An Interest In His Stuff</h3>
<p>Does your guy wake up every Saturday to hit the lake for some fishing? Surprise him and wake up to go along. Guys love spending time with their girlfriends. To have a significant other take an interest in a sport or activity that the guy loves can make it even better.</p>
<h3>Rub His Shoulders</h3>
<p>Guys respond to touch the way that women respond to emotion. If you really want to romance your guy, give him a back or shoulder rub the next time he’s watching TV or working at his desk. This can alleviate stress and keep him loose. When you rub his shoulders tell him how much you appreciate him and how much he has a made a difference in your life. You can also go for an <a title="Erotic Massage: How Erotic Touch Can Turn Up the Heat in Your Bedroom" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/foreplay-videos-tips/erotic-massage-how-erotic-touch-can-turn-up-the-heat-in-your-bedroom/">erotic massage</a> if you want to make it sexy this Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<h3>Seduce Him</h3>
<p><a title="How To Seduce A Woman" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/seduction-videos-tips/how-to-seduce-a-woman-video/">Seduction</a> is one of the best ways to get into a guy’s heart. Put on some lingerie and turn the lights down low right before bed. When he comes into the room he will instantly be in love with you all over again. It’s pretty obvious that men respond to sex pretty well. They find physical touch as the primary form of romance. When you seduce him it make him feel attractive and masculine.</p>
<p>You don’t have to be a complete genius to show your guy that you love him. When you implement these suggestions into your repertoire you will find that he can open up to you more. <a title="Top Things Men Do To Screw Up A Long Term Relationship" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/top-things-men-do-to-screw-up-a-long-term-relationship/">Relationships</a> are all about reciprocation.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="You’ll Definitely Want to Try These Fun and Creative Date Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/date-ideas-fun-romantic/date-ideas-fun-creative-michael-webb-300-dates/">Romantic date ideas</a> are usually what guys plan for their girlfriends or wives for Valentine&#8217;s Day. However, if you would like to do something romantic that won’t get an eye roll from your partner, you might need a little help. If you have ever taken your boyfriend or husband to the ballet you’ve probably seen them groan or nod off for the entire duration. Choosing a fun, romantic date that your partner will actually enjoy is essential to keeping them engaged while feeding your need for romance. Here are a few romantic date ideas that he will love for <a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>.</p>
<h3>Small Italian Restaurants</h3>
<p>Almost everybody loves Italian food. Guys love the meaty red sauces, the filling pastas and the garlic bread. If you want to make the night romantic, try to find an Italian place around your area that is off the beaten path. These are usually found inside the city on a corner or hidden among other stores. Having a back table in a small Italian restaurant will get the <a title="3 Ways To Plan A Romantic Evening" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/romance-tips-3-ways-to-plan-a-romantic-evening/">romance</a> started quickly. He’ll love the menu and love you for suggesting something new for the relationship. Make it a formal affair and dress up for the night to add more of an edge to your romantic date idea.</p>
<h3>Camping</h3>
<p>Nothing says Valentine&#8217;s Day like sleeping under the stars. If you’re looking for some quality time with your guy, consider camping. Roughing it in the woods and <a title="Cuddling After Sex - 3 Reasons Women Love It And Guys Should Do It" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/cuddling-after-sex-3-reasons-women-love-it-and-guys-should-do-it/">cuddling</a> next to a campfire can easily make for excellent romantic date ideas! Although this is more of a trip, you can make it a date that lasts until the next morning. Instead of using two different sleeping bags, use one as your base and then cuddle with the other one on top of the two of you. Look at the stars and spend the night talking about the future for some easy romance.</p>
<h3>Double Dating</h3>
<p><a title="The Pitfalls of Suddenly Single Friends" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/the-pitfalls-of-suddenly-single-friends/">Double dating</a> is one of the best romantic date ideas ever! Going out on a double date with your guy and another couple can lead to great conversation and a lot of fun on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Choose a night where you want to go out with another couple and make it a little more formal than a regular dinner and a movie. Get dressed up to the point that he would rather stay in the bedroom than go out with another couple. Touch his leg throughout the dinner to make the evening more romantic. When the bill comes, let him pay for you. This time honored tradition will make him feel like a man and can definitely end on a romantic note.</p>
<h3>Local Theater</h3>
<p>Although your guy undoubtedly doesn&#8217;t understand the ballet, he probably wouldn&#8217;t mind a trip to the local theater. Local theaters are dirt-cheap and usually have pretty good shows. Check your local theater for shows that are coming up so you and your guy can make plans. Have dinner beforehand and go out for a drink after the show has finished. Local theater will give you all of the aspects of a real Broadway show without the pricey tickets. Choose a show that you think he will like, but will also give you some <a title="Long Term Relationships: How To Keep The Romance Alive" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/long-term-relationships-how-to-keep-the-romance-alive/">romance</a>. There are staples of local theater so try to pick a show that you have heard of. If you are not really a theater guru, check local reviews and go from there.</p>
<h3>Make A Day Of It</h3>
<p><a title="Q&amp;A: How To Ask A Good Friend To Go On A Date (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/qa-how-to-ask-a-good-friend-to-go-on-a-date-video/">Dates</a> tend to focus on the night rather than the day. If you want to really have a romantic date, try to have a romantic day. Start in the morning with breakfast in bed with your guy or by going out to your favorite eatery. Spend the day shopping together or running errands around town. Running errands together or shopping for a new outfit that he likes can be very romantic. Decide on somewhere to eat dinner or buy something to cook together that night. Finish your day off by cuddling on the couch and watching a movie together. The keyword throughout all of this was “together.” Make sure that you’re not dragging him around to something that is going to be excruciating. He’s a guy so leave some of your more effeminate errands for a later date.</p>
<p>Romantic date ideas don’t have to be some Hollywood representation of chivalry. Romance for a guy is totally different than romance for you. Although the two can intersect at points, it might be hard to tread the line. It’s important to do something that you want to do also, so don’t make the date all about him. Romantic dates don’t even have to leave you home. Follow these suggestions or make a few tweaks to have a great <a title="Valentine's Day - 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romantic date</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> has become a staple for guys to do something romantic for their wives or girlfriends. However, busy lives combined with work schedules do not always leave a lot of time for planning. The truth is that women don’t need fancy dinners or <a title="Why Flowers And Jewelry Are Murdering Your Sex Life" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/why-flowers-and-jewelry-are-murdering-your-sex-life/">expensive jewelry</a> to have a great Valentine’s Day. You can easily give her a Valentine’s Day she will remember with a simple plan. Don’t know where to get started? Don’t worry. Here&#8217;s a few easy things that will help get you thinking.</p>
<h3>Cook Yourself</h3>
<p>Cooking yourself is not only a great way to save a little money, it can be much more personal. When you go out to a fancy restaurant, you spend money. When you cook at home, you spend time. Women don’t want to be equated to a monetary value. When you suspend your spending and put some heart into your cooking, she will definitely appreciate it much more than taking her to a new French restaurant where she can’t even read the menu. Get fresh vegetables and fresh meat from the market and let her lounge around the house while you cook dinner. When the dinner is done, clean up yourself after drawing her a bath.</p>
<h3>Watch Older Movies</h3>
<p>Most women aren’t going to find it <a title="3 Ways To Plan A Romantic Evening" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/romance-tips-3-ways-to-plan-a-romantic-evening/">romantic</a> if you pop in your copy of Predator. Go to Wal-Mart or Best Buy a couple of days before Valentine’s Day and search through the older movies. Casblanca, Breakfast At Tiffany’s and Gone With The Wind are great for Valentine’s Day. Buy the movie and surprise her with it. Curl up on the couch with a glass of wine to give her a Valentine’s Day she will remember. If you don’t think she’ll be into it, pop in Predator and see what kind of results you get.</p>
<h3>Live Music</h3>
<p>Obviously you have to <a title="You'll Definitely Want to Try These Fun and Creative Date Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/date-ideas-fun-romantic/date-ideas-fun-creative-michael-webb-300-dates/">treat her to dinner</a>, but a great way to spice up a Valentine’s Day is to take her to a bar that has live music. Almost every city will have a jazz bar in it. It doesn’t matter if you’re taking her to The Blue Note or a local dive where the drummer looks half asleep, she will appreciate this. Even if she isn’t into jazz, the slow rhythms and the aspect of seeing live music will be enough to get her going. Order an expensive drink for her slow dance. Even if you’re not a great slow dancer, indulge her for one night. She will appreciate the sentiment.</p>
<h3>Wine Tastings</h3>
<p>Valentine’s Day is one of the best days to find local events. A good local event for any wine lover is a tasting. If your girlfriend or wife has the pallete for sophistication, find a local restaurant that having a wine tasting. You might need to do this in advance because Valentine’s Day is pretty popular. For the most part these are relatively inexpensive when done with a winery that is local. You might spend $50 at most to get a reservation.</p>
<h3>Play A Couple’s Board Game</h3>
<p>A cool way to get closer with your girlfriend or wife is play a couple’s board game. These are designed to bring you closer and build the <a title="Top Things Men Do To Screw Up A Long Term Relationship" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/top-things-men-do-to-screw-up-a-long-term-relationship/">relationship</a>. You can find couple’s board games at local adult oriented stores or online. Some of the more popular ones are “Battle Of The Sexes” and Sexopoly. Try these out with the lights low and some mood music on to give the evening a more intimate feel. This can be a great Valentine’s Day that she will remember.</p>
<h3>Traditional Dinners</h3>
<p>A traditional dinner date is not the worst idea that you can come up with. The idea is simple enough, but you need to make it original. When you are planning your <a title="Top 10 First Date Ideas – Where To Go &amp; What To Do (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/date-ideas-fun-romantic/top-10-first-date-ideas-where-to-go-what-to-do-video/">dinner date</a>, you probably need to call a week or two in advanced. Plan on having dinner at a restaurant that is quiet. The restaurant should have a dress code. Since it is Valentine’s Day you want to keep things a little classy. No, Chili’s is not a classy Valentine’s Day date. Don’t pick a chain restaurant for your dinner.</p>
<p>Try to find a small restaurant in the middle of the city. These always have intimate settings, but they could be hard to get into if you don’t call far enough in advance. Once you have made the reservation, ask about their wine list. If you don’t know anything about wine, research some of the bottles on the list beforehand so you can know about them when the waiter comes to take your order.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day and <a title="Kinky Sex 101: Adding Flavor To Vanilla (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/kinky-sex-101-adding-flavor-to-vanilla-video/">kinky sex</a> are a perfect match for each other. On a day full of romance, love and sexy fun, just about anything goes. Whether you&#8217;re into vanilla sex or you like something a little darker, this is the time to really let your inhibitions go and have mind blowing sex! If you&#8217;ve never tried kinky sex &#8211; or have but want to try something new and different, February 14th is definitely the day to do it.  Here are 5 tips that will help get you started!</p>
<h3>1. Invest In A Good Bondage Rope</h3>
<p>Tying your partner up and having your way with them (or vice versa) is a great way to experiment with kinky sex on Valentine&#8217;s Day. However, if you&#8217;re tempted to just scare up some rope out of the garage, you&#8217;re in for a disappointment &#8211; or worse &#8211; severe rope burns. If you want to experiment with <a title="How To Introduce Your Girl To Bondage (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-to-introduce-your-girl-to-bondage-video/">bondage</a>, it is definitely in your best interest to invest in some good rope that is <em>made for bondage. </em>There are lots of different styles of rope available, ranging from synthetic materials in a variety of braid patterns to all natural hemp rope. Japanese bondage rope is a favorite among <a title="Q&amp;A: BDSM – How To Introduce Your Partner To Domination (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/qa-bdsm-how-to-introduce-your-partner-to-domination-video/">BDSM</a> fans because of its softness, durability and comfort.</p>
<h3>2. Try Anal Sex</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re open to the idea of <a title="Why Anal Sex Can Hurt" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/why-anal-sex-can-hurt-ffo/">anal sex</a>, Valentine&#8217;s Day is a great day to try it for the first time. Lots of people &#8211; both men and women &#8211; enjoy the feeling of anal sex not only because it stimulates nerves and pleasure points that vaginal intercourse can&#8217;t reach, but also because it&#8217;s considered &#8220;naughty&#8221; or &#8220;taboo.&#8221; If you&#8217;re a first-timer, start small and work your way up. Don&#8217;t jump right into kinky sex through the back door without having experimented with either fingers or small sex toys first &#8211; if you do, you&#8217;ll be sorry. If you use sex toys for anal play, make sure they have a wide, flared base at the bottom (or a ring). This will prevent the object from getting lost inside (yes, that can happen). Don&#8217;t forget to use lots and lots of good, water based <a title="Sex Tip: Choosing The Best Lubricant For The Job (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/sex-tip-choosing-the-best-lubricant-for-the-job/">lube</a> and never a desensitizing lube.</p>
<h3>3. Dirty Talk</h3>
<p>For <a title="BDSM 101 – Moving Beyond Plain Vanilla Sex" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/bdsm-101-moving-beyond-plain-vanilla-sex/">vanilla sex</a> lovers who just aren&#8217;t into kinky sex but want to try something a little on the wild side, dirty talk is right up your alley for Valentine&#8217;s Day. Dirty talk is a great way to let your inhibitions go with your partner &#8211; and also let them know what you want and what you like sexually! If you&#8217;re shy, practice talking dirty <em>before </em>you actually hop in the bed with your lover. You can practice <a title="Q&amp;A: Tips For Talking Dirty – With Examples (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-tips-for-talking-dirty-with-examples/">dirty talk</a> in front of a mirror to yourself, or simply imagine what you might say and how you might say it. If you lock up during sex and can&#8217;t seem to get a word out, simply try describing what your partner is doing (and how much you like it) or tell them what you&#8217;re going to do (and how much you like it). You get the idea.</p>
<h3>4. Watch Porn Together</h3>
<p>Porn comes in just about every flavor &#8211; whether you like it soft, hard, vanilla or straight up dark chocolate. If you&#8217;re too shy to try kinky sex for real this Valentine&#8217;s Day, watch a <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porn</a> with your partner that showcases what you think is hot and what you might like to try. You never know, you just might get in the mood to do something a little freaky after the movie is over! Communicate with your partner beforehand about what they like and don&#8217;t like, so you can make sure you get something that is acceptable for both of you. If you&#8217;re not sure what you want to try, visit a free porn site like YouPorn and watch a few different videos until you and your partner find something that entices both of you.</p>
<h3>5. Adding Sex Toys Into The Mix</h3>
<p>If the bottom drawer in your bedroom nightstand is pretty empty, consider filling it with a few choice <a title="Homemade Sex Toys – Should You Really Make Your Own? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/homemade-sex-toys-should-you-really-make-your-own-video/">sex toys</a> this Valentine&#8217;s Day. Sex toys are a great way to enter the foray of kinky sex, and most women are familiar with at least the standard vibrator. Choose a sex toy that just slightly outside your own personal box for something new and exciting. Love anal sex? Try anal beads or a prostate massager. Like getting your nipples pinched during oral sex? Try vibrating nipple clamps for some hands free fun. Use your creativity and choose a few sex toys that you&#8217;ve been thinking about trying but haven&#8217;t had the guts to do it yet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is all about having fun and spending time with your significant other &#8211; in the bedroom, of course! Instead of taking your partner out for dinner and a movie, try these sizzling <a title="4 Sizzling Sex Games To Try Tonight" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/4-sizzling-sex-games-to-try-with-your-partner/http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/4-sizzling-sex-games-to-try-with-your-partner/http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/4-sizzling-sex-games-to-try-with-your-partner/">sex games</a> to ramp up your sex life and turn up the heat between you and your lover. These sex games prove that you don&#8217;t have to spend a lot of money to have super hot sex with your partner on Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; or any other day for that matter!</p>
<h3>Cosmo&#8217;s Steamy Sex Games Kit</h3>
<p>Cosmopolitan &#8211; a popular love and sex magazine &#8211; has created a one of a kind sex games kit that includes several different games to play with your partner on Valentine&#8217;s Day (or whichever day you choose). Try a sexy scavenger hunt, dirty truth or dare, daring dice or sexy tarot cards. There are literally a dozen different games to choose from, so you and your lover definitely won&#8217;t get bored any time soon. Printed on super colorful cards, for $10, Cosmo&#8217;s Steamy Sex Games Kit is something you just can&#8217;t pass up.</p>
<p><strong><em>Pros: </em></strong>Inexpensive and you can use it over and over again</p>
<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong>You&#8217;ll want to use it on more than just Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; but is that really a con?</p>
<h3>Oral Sex Dice</h3>
<p>Dice may seem played out when it comes to sex games, but Adam &amp; Eve&#8217;s Oral Sex Dice will still help you turn up the heat in the bedroom with just a flick of your wrist this Valentine&#8217;s Day. Instead of just heading south of the border to give your partner some <a title="Do Tongue Piercings Improve Oral Sex?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/do-tongue-piercings-improve-oral-sex/">oral sex</a>, throw these dice around and see where else you can put your mouth and tongue to titillate your lover. Great for couples or even threesomes or foursomes, they&#8217;re a super cheap (only $6!) way to make oral sex even steamier than before.</p>
<p><strong><em>Pros: </em></strong>Super cheap way to spice up oral sex with your lover</p>
<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong>These can only take you so far before you&#8217;ve exhausted all of the different options</p>
<h3>Sex! Card Game</h3>
<p>Another great yet inexpensive card style sex game can help you and your partner ramp up your sex life and get you both hungry for more. The Sex! Card Game focuses mostly on sex positions, but is color coded according to <a title="Foreplay 101 for HIM" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/foreplay-101-for-him/">foreplay</a> ideas, scorching hot <a title="The Best Sex Positions To Make A Woman Orgasm Quicker" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/the-best-sex-positions-to-make-a-woman-orgasm-quicker/">sex positions</a> and much more in between. Play fun games like Fortune Teller, Lover&#8217;s Libido or Ultimate Fantasy! Again, just $10 gets you the deck of cards and a night full of unlimited passion!</p>
<p><strong><em>Pros: </em></strong>Inexpensive card games are an easy way to light the fire under your sexual imagination on Valentine&#8217;s Day</p>
<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong>There really are a lot of card style sex games out there, isn&#8217;t there?</p>
<h3>Silver Beaded Rope And Whip</h3>
<p>Take your <a title="How To Introduce Your Girl To Bondage (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-to-introduce-your-girl-to-bondage-video/">bondage</a> fantasies to the next level with a gorgeous silver beaded rope and whip kit this Valentine&#8217;s Day. For only $20, you get the super fun silver beaded rope (which is great for experimenting with restraint in dozens of different sex positions), a matching whip to tease and titillate your partner, and a free love mask to blindfold your lover with and have your way with them. For the price, this is a really pretty kit that will be a great addition to your collection of <a title="Sex Toys, Vibrators &amp; Dildos: Videos, Reviews, Tips, &amp; Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-toys-vibrators/">sex toys</a>.</p>
<p><strong><em>Pros: </em></strong>A pretty beaded rope and sexy love mask may entice even the most conservative folks</p>
<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong>The price is a little steep if you&#8217;re trying to go the cheap route</p>
<h3>Sex Casino Game</h3>
<p>For a totally different &#8220;spin&#8221; on sex games, try the Sex Casino Game from Adam &amp; Eve. This cute little game clocks in at just $20 and includes a spinner, dice, sexual favor betting chips, scratch-off lotto tickets and a manual with 25 different sex games to try in the bedroom. You and your partner definitely won&#8217;t get bored with the Sex Casino Game, because there are so many different things to try.

<p><strong><em>Pros: </em></strong>Different things to try all night long</p>
<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong>Some of the items in this sex games kit are one time use only</p>
<h3>Oral Sex Essentials Kit</h3>
<p>Who doesn&#8217;t want a <a title="Blowjob Tip: How To Make Her Want To Give You More Oral Sex (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/blowjob-tip-how-make-her-want-to-give-you-more-oral-sex-video/">blowjob</a> on Valentine&#8217;s Day?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Sex Toys, Vibrators &amp; Dildos: Videos, Reviews, Tips, &amp; Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-toys-vibrators/">Sex toys</a> are a great gift for Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; they let your partner know that you want to do naughty things with them all night long! Picking the best one for your partner (or for both of you) doesn&#8217;t have to be hard &#8211; in fact, shopping for them can be as much fun as the sex itself! You and your lover can shop together or you can pick a special gift out for her to use alone or with you. Here are the top 5 best Valentine&#8217;s Day sex toys &#8211; choose one or more for a night full of passion and explosive orgasms!</p>
<h3>Ben Wa Balls</h3>
<p>Ben Wa balls make an excellent Valentine&#8217;s Day gift because it is something that will not only titillate you and your partner <em>tonight, </em>they can help make your sex life better in the long run too. Ben Wa balls are small ball-shaped sex toys that are inserted into the vagina and held there. This will exercise the kegel muscles (the muscles used to stop the flow of urine). They can enhance g-spot orgasms during oral sex and will help tighten a woman&#8217;s vaginal muscles for more powerful orgasms. With regular use, Ben Wa balls can <a title="How To Tighten Your Vaginal Muscles And Have Sex Just Like The First Time!" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/how-to-tighten-your-vaginal-muscles-and-have-sex-just-like-the-first-time/">make sex feel like the first time</a> all over again! The weighted spheres are inexpensive and can be made out of a variety of different materials including glass or silicone. Some are available with vibration to make the experience extra special!</p>
<h3>Glass Sex Toys</h3>
<p><a title="Glass Sex Toys: Playing With Fire And Ice (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/glass-sex-toys-playing-with-fire-and-ice/">Glass sex toys</a> and are beautiful works of art in their own right &#8211; and they make excellent Valentine&#8217;s day gifts for your lover to use alone or for you to use together as a couple. Many glass pieces don&#8217;t even look like sex toys at all &#8211; they could be easily mistaken for a gorgeous glass sculpture or a paperweight. Only you and your partner will know what it&#8217;s really being used for! The best part of using a glass piece is that it holds temperature really well. If you want to experiment with heat and cold during sex, glass is the way to go. They are also very easy to clean and last a long time because the material is hard, smooth and doesn&#8217;t break down easily over time.</p>
<h3>Prostate Massage</h3>
<p>What better day than Valentine&#8217;s Day to try something new? If you&#8217;ve never tried <a title="The Male G-Spot: How To Find And Stimulate The Prostate Gland (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/the-male-g-spot-how-to-find-and-stimulate-the-prostate-gland-video/">prostate massage</a> (and you&#8217;re a guy) you&#8217;re in for a real treat. You have to get over the initial apprehension of anal play, but after you&#8217;ve gotten used to it, you can experience wilder, more explosive orgasms than you&#8217;ve ever had before. If this is your first time trying prostate massage, start with small <a title="Are Anal Sex Toys Safe? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/are-anal-sex-toys-safe-video/">anal sex toys</a> and work your way up to the bigger ones. Always make sure that any anal sex toy that you use has a wide, flared base on the bottom (a ring also works well) to prevent it from getting lost in the anal cavity and garnering you a trip to the emergency room. If you&#8217;re nervous about trying prostate massage for the first time in front of a partner, try a toy that is easy to use on your own during masturbation. Then work your way up to doing it with your lover.</p>
<h3>Sex Swings</h3>
<p>Sex swings will allow you to get into tons of different <a title="The Best Sex Positions To Make A Woman Orgasm Quicker" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/the-best-sex-positions-to-make-a-woman-orgasm-quicker/">sex positions</a> quickly and easily, making sex this Valentine&#8217;s Day super hot! Sex swings allow you or your partner to get into the more difficult sex positions without straining your neck, back or legs and can be used for intercourse, anal sex and oral sex. If you have a lot of space (and a lot of money to spend) try the stand alone love swing &#8211; the swing is mounted on a large metal four-legged stand. If you live in a small home or apartment or want to save a little money, try the over-the-door sex swing instead.</p>
<h3>Bondage Kits</h3>
<p>If you want to try a little <a title="How To Introduce Your Girl To Bondage (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-to-introduce-your-girl-to-bondage-video/">bondage</a>, try using a pre-made bondage kit. Usually these come with paddles, fuzzy handcuffs, feather ticklers, blindfolds and the like. Some of them are even made with soft heart shaped paddles and heart pillows, making them a perfect Valentine&#8217;s Day gift! Surprise your partner with a bondage kit and tell her that you&#8217;re going to tie her up and have her way with her &#8211; after she has her way with you! A little light BDSM and bondage can go a long way in making it a night you and your lover are going to remember for a long time to come.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="3 Oral Sex Tips That Will Drive Her Wild (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/3-oral-sex-tips-that-will-drive-her-wild-video/http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/3-oral-sex-tips-that-will-drive-her-wild-video/">Oral sex</a> is the perfect sizzling hot Valentine&#8217;s Day gift. It lets your partner know that tonight, it&#8217;s all about her and her pleasure. Get ready to camp out down south and give her oral sex that will blow her mind and have her begging on her knees for more! Here are some tips you can use to go down on her that will keep her clawing at the sheets and screaming your name until she has an earth shattering orgasm!</p>
<h3>Lick Slowly All Around Her Vagina</h3>
<p>Instead of heading straight for her <a title="Clitoris 101: 3 Things Men Need to Know about the Clitoris" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/clitoris-101-3-things-men-need-to-know-about-the-clitoris/">clitoris</a>, use your tongue to explore every nook and cranny of her vagina. When giving her oral sex, don&#8217;t spare an inch! Make sure she&#8217;s clean and well groomed ahead of time and this should be an easy task. You can even use flavored lube to make your job even easier &#8211; and more enticing! Let your tongue brush lightly all over her vagina from top to bottom as you tease her and get her warmed up for the real thing. When you start to really get into it, form your tongue into a firm point and begin to lick and suck deeply. If you typically only lick her clitoris when going down on her, giving her this kind of oral sex on Valentine&#8217;s Day will make sure she never, ever forgets just how good you can be in bed!</p>
<h3>Finger Her G-Spot And Give Her A Blended Orgasm</h3>
<p>This is a great oral sex technique to try on Valentine&#8217;s Day, especially if your lover has never had a blended orgasm before. A <a title="How To Have A Blended Orgasm – Your Step By Step Guide" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/how-to-have-a-blended-orgasm-your-step-by-step-guide/">blended orgasm</a> is a mix between a g-spot orgasm and a clitoral orgasm, and can be one of the most powerful orgasms a woman can ever have. Learning how to give her a blended orgasm will not only make sex hotter tonight, it&#8217;s a technique you can use any time you really want to rock your partner&#8217;s world. Get her warmed up by licking her clitoris and priming her g-spot to be touched and fondled. Once she&#8217;s good and ready, slip your finger inside her vagina with your palm up and crook your finger in a &#8220;come hither&#8221; motion. You&#8217;ll be able to feel the g-spot easily (it&#8217;s much harder to do when she&#8217;s not completely aroused because it&#8217;s not engorged with blood and will feel like the rest of the vagina) and stimulating it is simple &#8211; just rub the g-spot back and forth or move your finger in circles. Switch back and forth between clitoris and <a title="3 Things All Men Need To Know About The G-Spot" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/3-things-all-men-need-to-know-about-the-g-spot/">g-spot</a> stimulation until she&#8217;s begging you to bring her to climax. Then do both at the same time until she explodes! This may even allow her to experience <a title="Female Orgasm – Squirting 101 (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/female-orgasm-squirting-101-video/">female ejaculation</a> if she&#8217;s really able to let go.</p>
<h3>Take Your Time (And Make Noise)</h3>
<p>One thing that women hate when it comes to oral sex is feeling like her man thinks its a chore to go down on her. If he doesn&#8217;t like it, she&#8217;s not going to like it. Or, she&#8217;ll pretend she likes it for a few minutes and really won&#8217;t get into it. Let her know that you <em>love </em>eating her out and giving her an <a title="5 Little Known Female Orgasm Secrets" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/5-little-known-female-orgasm-secrets-and-tips/">orgasm</a> with your mouth. Show her that you&#8217;re really enjoying it by looking up at her now and then while you&#8217;re doing it and acting as though you&#8217;re really into it. <em>Don&#8217;t </em>lean your head to one side and lick as though you&#8217;re bored with it and don&#8217;t want to be doing it. She&#8217;ll never reach orgasm that way and your efforts (however minimal they may be) will be wasted. Instead, let her know that you love having your face between her legs by acting like it&#8217;s the most delicious thing you&#8217;ve ever tasted (yes, this really works!) and making at least some noise. You don&#8217;t have to be totally fake about it when giving her oral sex, but playing it up a little bit and showing her that you really love licking her up and down can go a long way in rocking her world. Don&#8217;t rush her through oral sex either &#8211; take your time and if you&#8217;re tired, don&#8217;t let on. Let her think you could happily be down there forever.</p>
<p>By giving your lover amazing oral sex and taking her to the next level this Valentine&#8217;s Day, she&#8217;ll never forget how incredible you are in bed &#8211; and she&#8217;ll be wanting to have sex with you all the time! Don&#8217;t forget that after you give her great head, she&#8217;ll want to do the same for you too.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day On Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is a day where you definitely want to have the right moves. When you&#8217;re in a relationship (or trying to woo someone new) on Valentine&#8217;s Day, you want to make sure not only that you don&#8217;t flub things up, but that you also leave a lasting impression. Here are some things to avoid this February 14th, as well as a few things that you want to make sure are on your to-do list for the big day.</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t Text Your Ex</h3>
<p>You may be tempted to text your ex on Valentine&#8217;s Day, especially if you&#8217;re alone, but that is a <em>huge </em>Valentine&#8217;s Day mistake. If you&#8217;re single, you may be getting your hopes up only to get shot down if your ex is with someone else. Or, you may start a <a title="Relationship Tips &amp; Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/relationship-advice/">relationship</a> up again that is doomed from the start because you and your ex are incompatible. If you <em>are </em>in a relationship with someone new, texting or calling your ex on February 14th will only make you feel bad when your new lover does something super sweet and amazing for you to show you that they care. If you get caught though, it can take matters from bad to worse and could possibly jeopardize your new relationship. Don&#8217;t take the chance &#8211; it&#8217;s <em>so </em>not worth it!</p>
<h3>Your Boyfriend Isn&#8217;t A Mind Reader</h3>
<p>Ladies, don&#8217;t expect your boyfriend or husband to know exactly what you want for Valentine&#8217;s Day. In fact, don&#8217;t even be surprised if he&#8217;s just not as into the whole flowers-hearts-cupid thing as you are. Because men aren&#8217;t hardwired to love Valentine&#8217;s Day or to know exactly what a woman wants for a gift, it&#8217;s perfectly okay and even encouraged to drop hints. We&#8217;re not necessarily talking about dropping hints that you want flowers or jewelry, but something more along the lines of letting him know things you think are <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romantic</a> or special.</p>
<h3>Consider Flowers Other Than Roses</h3>
<p>Roses are very, very played out for <a title="Top 6 Valentine’s Day Sex Positions" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-6-valentines-day-sex-positions/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>. While they&#8217;re definitely a classic (especially if they&#8217;re red), they just aren&#8217;t going to give your lover the &#8220;wow&#8221; factor. Whether you have them delivered to her at work or surprise her with a bouquet on her doorstep, roses will only serve to show that you just can&#8217;t think of anything original. Try going with a zen-style planter with a tall pink orchid stem (bonus points because it&#8217;s a plant and won&#8217;t die right away like cut flowers will) or you can look for pink and white hydrangea blooms or tropical pink stargazer lilies. Red and pink tulips are also a fresh, creative choice for Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t Break Up</h3>
<p>Deciding that you want to <a title="Make Up, Don’t Break Up This Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/make-up-dont-break-up-this-valentines-day/">break up</a> with your partner on Valentine&#8217;s Day is just a low blow. Even if you simply cannot bear to be with them any longer, wait until at least the day <em>after </em>to break the news to your soon-to-be ex. You might want to consider faking sick or having to stay late at work so your significant other doesn&#8217;t end up spending a lot of money on you and end up regretting it later. Sure, you might be tempted to come out of the deal with a few nice things but a move like that will definitely earn you a bad reputation &#8211; not to mention, it&#8217;s definitely not the courteous, adult thing to do. Also, if you&#8217;ve been thinking of ending the relationship for awhile, consider doing it <em>before </em>Valentine&#8217;s Day, before your partner has had a chance to plan something big &#8211; and expensive. But if you haven&#8217;t made the decision by the 13th, you&#8217;ll have to stick it out until the 15th.</p>
<h3>Make Sure You Say &#8220;I Love You&#8221; In A Unique Way</h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t just buy your lover chocolate or flowers on Valentine&#8217;s Day. There are so many easy, cheap and <em>amazing </em>ideas out there that will help show your partner that you really do <a title="Valentine’s Day – 8 Creative Ways To Say I Love You (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-8-creative-ways-to-say-i-love-you-video/">love</a> them! From mowing the words &#8220;I love you&#8221; in the grass of your front lawn or dedicating a song to your significant lover on the radio, there are a thousand and more ways to make your partner feel super loved and super special this Valentine&#8217;s Day. Don&#8217;t settle for just a lame gift that doesn&#8217;t show you put any thought into it at all. The best gifts come from the heart and are actually very low cost &#8211; like stuffing balloons full of secret love messages or making them breakfast in bed with homemade orange juice and toast that says &#8220;I love you!&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day On Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is a perfect day to show your partner that you truly love and care for her. But just how are you going to do that? There are tons of romantic Valentine&#8217;s Day ideas out there, and lots of ideas for gifts you can get her on that special day. However, even the gifts that <em>seem </em>romantic and sweet can actually backfire on you! Check out these Valentine&#8217;s Day gifts that are sure to make her swoon on the 14th!</p>

<h3>Jewelry</h3>
<p>While jewelry may seem cliche, don&#8217;t underestimate the fact that almost every women loves things that are pretty and sparkly. If you want to ask her to <a title="Q&amp;A: What You Should Know Before Getting Married (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/engagement-marriage/qa-what-you-should-know-before-getting-married-video/">get married</a>, a ring is great on Valentine&#8217;s Day, but your girl will appreciate a nice pair of earrings or a tennis bracelet just as much. Just make sure to put some thought into it &#8211; if she works with her hands all day, a channel set ring would be a better choice than a marquis diamond.</p>
<h3>Flowers</h3>
<p>Sure, it&#8217;s just as cliche as jewelry, but very few women won&#8217;t love a gorgeous bouquet of blooms. The trick is, however, to make <em>giving </em>the flowers unique. Surprise her at work with a bouquet of <a title="Why Flowers And Jewelry Are Murdering Your Sex Life" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/why-flowers-and-jewelry-are-murdering-your-sex-life/">flowers</a> &#8211; IN PERSON. She&#8217;ll love the attention! Do it right before her lunch break and then take her out to lunch. When she comes back, it&#8217;s all her coworkers will talk about! Bonus points if you get a quickie in the car &#8211; or at least make it look like you did. Whatever you choose to do, just don&#8217;t be the guy who has his secretary send her a tiny, overpriced bouquet off the Internet or the guy who gets the discount flowers from the supermarket after all the good ones have been picked through.</p>
<h3>Chocolate</h3>
<p><a title="Eat Your Way To Better Sex – 6 Foods That Will Boost Your Libido" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/eat-your-way-to-better-sex-6-foods-that-will-boost-your-libido/">Chocolate</a> is a popular Valentine&#8217;s Day present, but it&#8217;s easy to go very wrong when buying your woman chocolates for the big day. We&#8217;re not talking about the box you can simply grab at the store with the rest of your groceries. These heart shaped boxes can be pretty, but they&#8217;re usually filled with cheap tasting chocolate and gritty fillings. This Valentine&#8217;s Day, give her fine imported or Godiva special order chocolates. She&#8217;ll swoon over those.</p>
<p>You can make it really special by finding out what chocolates she really likes. For example, lots of people don&#8217;t like dark chocolate or coconut (especially the cheaper varieties) and many boxes of mixed chocolates have a large ratio of these flavors. If she doesn&#8217;t like dark chocolate, go for a milk chocolate mix or hand select which chocolates she&#8217;d like. Many specialty chocolatiers and candy stores will allow you to put together a box of chocolates that you pick out.</p>
<h3>Wine Or Champagne</h3>
<p>Another great Valentine&#8217;s Day idea is to surprise her with a bottle of her favorite wine or champagne &#8211; you know, the kind she loves but it&#8217;s just a little over her price range so she never buys it for herself. Make a point to enjoy it with her. This is where you can make the gift truly special, by enjoying a nice, long conversation with her while relaxing over drinks. Make sure to bring a back up because if she really likes it, one bottle isn&#8217;t going to be enough for the two of you!</p>
<h3>Weekend Getaway</h3>
<p>You&#8217;d be surprised at how much a simple change in scenery will rev up your <a title="Q&amp;A: How Can We Spice Up Our Sex Life? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-how-can-we-spice-up-our-sex-life-video/">sex life</a> and make Valentine&#8217;s Day super special. Even if it&#8217;s just for the weekend, a simple getaway with just the two of you will be just the ticket to a perfect weekend. Or, you can simply book a hotel for that night if you don&#8217;t have the time or funds to splurge for the entire weekend. Make sure you&#8217;re booking a nice 3-5 star hotel, not the sleazy motel across the street. The venue you choose <em>will </em>make a difference. Bonus points if you bring the high end chocolate AND the champagne.</p>
<h3>Spa Voucher</h3>
<p>Women love to be pampered, but unfortunately, it is a rare woman indeed that will actually spend that kind of money on herself. For Valentine&#8217;s Day, get her a massage voucher. Or a hair voucher. Or nail voucher. Or all three. You get the idea &#8211; let her know that you feel like she&#8217;s worth it and that you appreciate all of her hard work and everything that she&#8217;s done for you. Take her to the spa and be there to pick her up when her appointment is finished.</p>
<h3>Sex Toy</h3>
<p>While getting her a sex toy as a gift can definitely backfire if you&#8217;re not careful, all you have to do is pay attention to what she likes and what she doesn&#8217;t like in bed to make sure you <a title="Choosing Sex Toys For Her Without Ending Up In The Dog House (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/choosing-sex-toys-for-her-without-ending-up-in-the-dog-house-video/">get her one that she&#8217;ll like</a>. If you choose the right toy, you&#8217;ll show her that you really do know her well and know what she enjoys. Pair a sex toy with another gift, such as a massage or a night at your favorite hotel, for the perfect Valentine&#8217;s Day evening.</p>
<h3>Photograph Of You And Her Together</h3>
<p>Show your love for your girl by giving her a gift of a photo of you two together in a nice keepsake frame. If you don&#8217;t have good pictures of you two together to frame, make your gift a photo shoot together. Get them professionally done and give it to her to put on her desk or hang up in her house &#8211; or your house if you share one. This is a super creative and sweet way to show your lover that your relationship with her is important to you and you want to celebrate it on Valentine&#8217;s Day.</p>
<h3>Comfortable Pajamas</h3>
<p><a title="How To Buy Erotic Lingerie For Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/how-to-buy-erotic-lingerie-for-valentines-day/">Lingerie</a> is a popular gift for Valentine&#8217;s Day, but let&#8217;s face it &#8211; how often is she really going to wear it? Probably just the once. Come to think of it, isn&#8217;t lingerie for her really a gift for you in disguise? It&#8217;s kind of like getting her a fishing pole for her birthday &#8211; you&#8217;re really getting her a present that is for you to use. Instead of getting her lingerie, get her high end, comfortable pajamas to wear that shows her you care about her and her comfort. A sweet set of silky pajamas will make her feel loved and pampered &#8211; and it probably won&#8217;t be long before the pajamas come off and you get to enjoy the night in your birthday suits.</p>
<h3>A Love Book</h3>
<p>A <a title="The Secret to Lasting Love – Better Than Flowers And Chocolate (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/the-secret-to-lasting-love-better-than-flowers-and-chocolate-video/">LoveBook</a> is a wonderful Valentine&#8217;s Day gift, because it&#8217;s something that will last forever &#8211; a book full of things you love about your partner that you made yourself. It&#8217;s an easy gift to give, because the program used to make the LoveBook guides you through the process, but it also allows you to be as creative as you want and customize your LoveBook completely. It&#8217;s something she can read every day that tells her each little thing that you love about her.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Flying solo on <a title="Valentine's Day On Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="https://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to spend the night moping around about how you&#8217;re not gettin&#8217; any. Instead, why not plan to get some &#8211; with yourself? Plan an evening of pleasure for yourself, whether it&#8217;s watching your favorite porn flick or taking a hot bath and relaxing before breaking out a new vibrator. Here are some excellent ways you can get busy by yourself on Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<h3>Grab An Erotic Movie Or Book</h3>
<p><strong><em>For Him</em></strong>: Rent, buy or download a new <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porn</a> with your favorite star in it, or indulge yourself in a fetish movie that you haven&#8217;t gotten around to checking out yet. Men love visual stimulation, so lock your doors and turn on the tube. You can also check out free porn on websites like YouPorn. Either way, just make sure you get your mind in the mood with whatever turns you on the most. Make sure you have your masturbation tools nearby in case you can&#8217;t hold out through the whole movie!</p>
<p><strong><em>For Her:</em></strong> Visit your local sex toy store for an erotic novel or two, or order them online. Heck, you can even find free erotic stories online with just a simple Internet search. While men are visual creatures and enjoy <em>watching </em>sex, most women prefer to have their imaginations stimulated with an erotic novel. Don&#8217;t just re-read one of your steamy romance novels though &#8211; this Valentine&#8217;s Day, treat yourself to something really naughty. You&#8217;ll be surprised at how much <em>better </em>your masturbation can be after just a few erotic stories!</p>
<h3>Purchase A Sex Toy Just For The Occasion</h3>
<p><strong><em>For Him</em></strong>: There are a lot of guys out there that are still stuck in the hand and lotion &#8220;stone age.&#8221; There are lots of hot <a title="Homemade Sex Toys – Should You Really Make Your Own? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/homemade-sex-toys-should-you-really-make-your-own-video/">sex toys</a> for boys available at both traditional sex toy stores and their online counterparts. Male sex toys come in a variety of different styles, colors, textures and sizes to accommodate every man&#8217;s desires. Masturbation sleeves are among the most popular sex toys for guys, whether it&#8217;s a &#8220;Fleshlight&#8221; modeled after a real vagina or a simple pink silicone sleeve that feels absolutely divine with a few squirts of lube. Consider purchasing a new sex toy before the big day and save it for that special night. You&#8217;ll feel the difference right away!</p>
<p><strong><em>For Her</em></strong>: Thinking about busting out your tried and true vibrator for a quickie <a title="Top 10 Female Masturbation Tips" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/masturbation-how-to-masturbate/top-10-female-masturbation-tips/">masturbation</a> session on Valentine&#8217;s Day? Think again. Order a brand new dildo or bullet vibe (or whatever else tickles your fancy) and save it for the 14th.</p>
<h3>Relax In A Hot Bath</h3>
<p><strong><em>For Him</em></strong>: You may think it&#8217;s sissy for guys to want to relax in a hot bath, but don&#8217;t underestimate the power that hot water, bubbles, steam and aromatherapy can do to relax your body and your mind. Especially if you&#8217;ve had a particularly long or difficult day at work, it&#8217;s important to clear your mind of everything that happened that day and start getting yourself in the mood and thinking about sex. Stroke yourself a few times in the bath, or think about something really arousing to get yourself ready.</p>
<p><strong><em>For Her:</em></strong> Every woman loves a good, long soak in a hot bath. Take this to heart on <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> and plan to take a long bath before your masturbation session. Make it special by adding some new, great smelling bath oils or salts, or light your favorite scented candles and add some rose petals to the water. The idea behind doing this on Valentine&#8217;s Day is to treat yourself right and make yourself feel special when you&#8217;re spending the evening alone. After your bath, make sure to put on some decadently rich body lotion and enjoy the feel of your silky smooth skin.</p>
<h3>Go Slow And Take Your Time</h3>
<p><strong><em>For Him:</em></strong> Most of the time when guys masturbate, they do it in a hurry. As kids, guys had to &#8220;hurry up&#8221; before Mom came home, and even as adults, husbands have to &#8220;make it quick&#8221; before the wife catches them. If you&#8217;re spending February 14th by yourself, there&#8217;s no reason to rush your masturbation. Lock your doors, draw the blinds and take as much time with yourself as you need to make it really spectacular.</p>
<p><strong><em>For Her</em></strong>: Some women naturally take their time during masturbation, simply because it takes several minutes for a woman to get warmed up, but others have got masturbation down pat and can reach <a title="5 Little Known Female Orgasm Secrets" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/5-little-known-female-orgasm-secrets-and-tips/">orgasm</a> in three minutes or less. If you&#8217;re used to quickie masturbation, make sure to slow it down on Valentine&#8217;s Day. This isn&#8217;t about &#8220;getting the job done&#8221; and masturbation doesn&#8217;t have to be a means to an end. Take time to enjoy yourself and really savor the way everything feels.</p>
<h3>Multiple Orgasms? Yes, Please!</h3>
<p><strong><em>For Him</em></strong>: Can men really have multiple orgasms! Absolutely! While most men aren&#8217;t necessarily going to have multiple orgasms in quick succession like a woman can, most men can cool down in a period of about 15-25 minutes and get started again. Why not make Valentine&#8217;s Day <em>night </em>last all night long?</p>
<p><strong><em>For Her:</em></strong> It&#8217;s a little easier for women to have <a title="What Are Multiple=">multiple orgasms</a> than it is for men. Women are like ovens &#8211; it takes some time for them to warm up but once they&#8217;re hot, they stay that way for a little while. When a woman reaches orgasm, she doesn&#8217;t go all the way back down to the starting point. She&#8217;s actually very close to having another. Take advantage of the way your body works and don&#8217;t stop after just the first orgasm. You may even want to try to have as many orgasms as you can &#8211; you might just set a Valentine&#8217;s Day record!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day On Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is about love &#8211; not gifts &#8211; so it shouldn&#8217;t matter what you get your partner, right? Wrong! While you don&#8217;t have to spend a lot of money on your significant other&#8217;s Valentine&#8217;s Day gift, it does have to show that you truly thought about your partner when selecting or making the gift and it should illustrate your love for them. While most of the time any effort a guy puts into a Valentine&#8217;s Day gift is applauded, there are some gifts that just won&#8217;t make the cut &#8211; and they&#8217;ll probably land you on the couch for the next several nights.</p>
<h3>Flowers From A Gas Station</h3>
<p>Yes, women absolutely adore getting flowers on Valentine&#8217;s Day. In fact, it&#8217;s even something women feel very strongly that their partners <em>should </em>do for them on February 14th. But just getting her any flowers doesn&#8217;t win you brownie points &#8211; getting them from somewhere like a gas station will no doubt make you look cheap and make her feel like you just grabbed something on your way out of a convenience store. Don&#8217;t make her think that she&#8217;s not worth your time &#8211; because if you&#8217;re with her, she is! Instead, surprise her with flowers at work. Don&#8217;t want to spend the money getting them sent there by a florist? Show up right before her lunch break with a handful of fresh picked flowers and take her out for a lunch full of <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">romance</a>.</p>
<h3>A Card&#8230;Without A Gift</h3>
<p>Lots of people give cards on Valentine&#8217;s Day, but they&#8217;re usually accompanied by a gift of some sort, preferably one that shows that the gift giver really and truly cares. It&#8217;s great to pick out a sweet or funny card for your significant other for Valentine&#8217;s Day, but don&#8217;t give her just a card with nothing else to go with it. This will show your partner that she&#8217;s unimportant in your life or that you just couldn&#8217;t think of anything to get her. It&#8217;s a great way to make you feel like a stranger to her. Instead, pick out a really sweet or funny card and pair it with a single rose from the florist (less than $5) or a special dinner <a title="Q&amp;A: How To Ask A Good Friend To Go On A Date (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/dating-tips/qa-how-to-ask-a-good-friend-to-go-on-a-date-video/">date</a>.</p>
<h3>Sex Advice</h3>
<p>If you want to turn Valentine&#8217;s Day into a night of super steamy sex, giving her the gift of <a title="Valentine’s Day Gift Idea – Hot Sex And Explosive Orgasms" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-gift-idea-hot-sex-and-explosive-orgasms/">sex advice</a> &#8211; be it in book form or other &#8211; will only serve to make your partner think that you&#8217;re trying to tell her she&#8217;s a terrible lover. You&#8217;re much better off if <em>you </em>want to look up sex advice of your own on how to please <em>her. </em>In fact, this is recommended if you want to plan a night of amazing sex and explosive orgasms on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Learn how to give her incredible oral sex with moves you&#8217;ve never tried before &#8211; and surprise her with them on the night of the 14th!</p>
<h3>Porn For &#8220;Her&#8221;</h3>
<p>Watching porn together on the 14th is a great way to connect sexually with your lover, but it has to be the right kind of <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porn</a> and it certainly can&#8217;t be your &#8220;gift&#8221; to her &#8211; well, your only one anyway. Lots of guys try to get away with giving their girls porn <em>as a gift, </em>and this most certainly will not work on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Most guys have no clue as to what a woman truly finds erotic in an adult movie and end up choosing something <em>they </em>think is hot &#8211; which often the women off completely. If you get her porn as a Valentine&#8217;s Day gift, you&#8217;re suggesting that she&#8217;s not good enough for you in bed and that she doesn&#8217;t turn you on. Not at all what you want to say to her on the big night!</p>
<h3>A Prank Gift</h3>
<p>It may seem funny to give your lover a prank gift on Valentine&#8217;s Day, but this is almost <em>never </em>a good idea, even if your partner has a great sense of humor. A prank gift will show your partner that you cared more about entertaining yourself than you did about her, and at her expense. If you really want a laugh on Valentine&#8217;s Day, take your partner out to see a funny movie after eating a delicious and romantic dinner together. There are so many awesome sweet and sexy <a title="Valentine’s Day – 8 Creative Ways To Say I Love You (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-8-creative-ways-to-say-i-love-you-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day ideas</a> out there, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about coming up with something all on your own. Take the time to plan something really special and show your partner that she really means a lot to you and you feel like she&#8217;s an important part of your life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day On Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is for couples, right? Wrong! Just because you&#8217;re flying solo on February 14th doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to confine yourself to your house like a leper just because you don&#8217;t have a significant other on your arm. Treat yourself to something special this Valentine&#8217;s Day, like a massage or a special dinner. Check out these great ways to spend the day if you&#8217;re sans a date.</p>
<h3>Book A Spa Appointment</h3>
<p>Pamper yourself on Valentine&#8217;s Day by booking an appointment at your favorite spa or salon. Pedicure? Yes, please! If you&#8217;ve got the money to spend, book a few services or even purchase a &#8220;day spa&#8221; ticket where lunch is served. Instead of being bummed out that you&#8217;re single on the big day, you&#8217;ll be enjoying being pampered all day long. Plus, human touch during a <a title="Great Sex Begins With A Sensual Massage" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/great-sex-begins-with-a-sexual-massage/">massage</a> is known to boost a person&#8217;s mood almost immediately! Even if you&#8217;re watching your wallet this February, consider booking just a half hour massage or a simple pedicure or manicure. You&#8217;d be surprised that even a little pampering will go a long way.</p>
<h3>Try A New Restaurant</h3>
<p>Grab a friend (or go solo) to the restaurant you&#8217;ve been dying to try. Sure, it may be full of couples having a romantic dinner, but there&#8217;s nothing wrong with bringing a book or surfing the web on your phone while you enjoy an amazing meal (that you didn&#8217;t have to make!) on Valentine&#8217;s Day. If you don&#8217;t want to brave the crowds of couples on the 14th, consider ordering out. Either way, make sure you&#8217;re treating yourself to something super yummy so you have something to look forward to all day &#8211; kind of like a <a title="Being Single On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/being-single-on-valentines-day/">date</a> with yourself!</p>
<h3>Host A Valentine&#8217;s Day Party</h3>
<p>Being single on Valentine&#8217;s Day puts you in the perfect position to host an amazing party for your friends. Instead of having to spend the night hanging on someone&#8217;s arm, you can mingle with your friends all evening, making you a great host. Throw a rooftop party if you have access to one and the weather is nice, or just string some twinkle lights in your living room or den. You can go all out with decorations and food, or you can keep it simple with snacks and ask that guests bring their own alcohol if they wish to drink. Make it as big or as small as you like, depending on whether you want to throw the Valentine&#8217;s Day bash of the century or if you just want an intimate gathering with your closest friends.</p>
<h3>Veg Out In Front Of The Tube</h3>
<p>Most people have to work on <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>, because it&#8217;s definitely not a holiday that is recognized by the corporate or business world. After a long, hard day at work, you may not want to do anything but hang out at home in your pajamas &#8211; and there&#8217;s absolutely nothing wrong with doing that! Plan for a great night in front of the tube with your favorite movies or DVD&#8217;s of your favorite television series, and make sure you have lots of your favorite snacks and drinks. Spend the night relaxing and treating yourself to an evening of doing absolutely nothing!</p>
<h3>Spread Kindness</h3>
<p>There&#8217;s something about being nice to other people that makes you feel all warm and tingly inside. Instead of spending Valentine&#8217;s Day moping around and feeling sorry for yourself about being single, try donating your time to an animal or homeless shelter instead. Serve up soup to the homeless or take a few puppies from the pound for a walk in the dog park &#8211; bonus points if you end up finding homes for any of the doggies! Smile at everyone you meet and make a point to be as nice and kind as you can. At the end of the day, you&#8217;ll feel really great about yourself and your <a title="Q&amp;A: When She Says You Deserve Someone Better (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/qa-when-she-says-you-deserve-someone-better/">self-esteem</a> will have gone way up. It&#8217;s a great way to spend Valentine&#8217;s Day if you&#8217;re alone!</p>
<h3>Take A Class</h3>
<p>Have you ever wanted to try a kickboxing class or an art class? Have you been dying to hit up the poetry slam at your local coffee shop? Flex your creative muscles and take the class you&#8217;ve always wanted to take or check out the underground theater you&#8217;ve been eying for a couple months. Valentine&#8217;s Day is a perfect day to finally do something you&#8217;ve always wanted to, because it&#8217;s a great way to remind yourself that you are a creative, talented human being and that you truly do <a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">love</a> yourself!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is the perfect time to bring something new &#8211; like <a title="How To Introduce Your Girl To Bondage (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-to-introduce-your-girl-to-bondage-video/">bondage</a> &#8211; to the bedroom. Your partner will be more receptive to trying bondage for the first time on Valentine&#8217;s Day, and if you and your lover have already experimented with tying each other up before, now is a great time to step it up a night. Here is your bondage guide for Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; what you need, how to keep it safe and how to reach the next level!</p>
<h3>The Right Kind Of Bondage Rope</h3>
<p>The type of rope you use for bondage is extremely important. Grabbing just any old rope from your shed, garage or the hardware store just isn&#8217;t going to work in the bedroom. Well, it will work on a technical level, but it will definitely be uncomfortable and may cause pain and discomfort from mild to severe rope burns. Honestly, when trying anything new when it comes to <a title="Sex - Articles, Videos, Tips &amp; Advice " href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/">sex</a>, it&#8217;s important that you have the right tools for the job. This Valentine&#8217;s Day, invest a little money (not a lot, because most bondage rope is generally inexpensive) in the right kind of rope for bondage play. You can choose from a variety of different rope materials, ranging all the way from nylon to natural fiber and hemp. There are also different braids available, but those are a matter of personal preference. Any rope that is made specifically for bedroom play will work just fine.</p>
<h3>Blindfolds? Yes, Please!</h3>
<p>A big part of <a title="Q&amp;A: BDSM and Fetishes – When Your Fantasies Don’t Line Up (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/qa-bdsm-and-fetishes-when-your-fantasies-dont-line-up-video/">BDSM</a> is blindfolding. This adds a certain element of surprise and mystery to sex, because your partner can&#8217;t see what you&#8217;re about to do or where you&#8217;re going next. This heightens the pleasurable sensations during sex and oral sex ten fold because anticipation is a huge part of experiencing sexual pleasure. Don&#8217;t leave out blindfolds in your bedroom play this Valentine&#8217;s Day! You can purchase a special love mask by itself, or you can get a &#8220;beginner&#8217;s bondage kit&#8221; that usually includes a blindfold along with other BDSM items such as paddles, feather ticklers, light whips and fuzzy handcuffs. If you&#8217;re really short on cash, try using a silk scarf or tie for a blindfold instead. It&#8217;s easy to use and doesn&#8217;t cost a thing!</p>
<h3>Keeping Bondage Safe And Fun</h3>
<p>One of the most important parts of bondage and BDSM play is to make sure you&#8217;re doing it safely and everyone involved is having a good time. You definitely want to follow the safety rules on Valentine&#8217;s Day to make sure your sexy &#8220;gift&#8221; doesn&#8217;t backfire on you! Here are some simple guidelines to use when bringing bondage and BDSM into the bedroom so you and your partner both have fun!</p>
<ul>
<li>Have a &#8220;safe word&#8221; that is totally unrelated to sex (i.e. banana, waffle, Christmas tree, etc.)</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t be afraid to use the safe word if you are uncomfortable or are in pain and want the play to stop immediately.</li>
<li>If your partner uses the safe word, it is <em>your </em>job to stop whatever you&#8217;re doing right away!</li>
<li>Discuss with your partner beforehand what is acceptable and what isn&#8217;t. For example, <a title="3 Oral Sex Tips That Will Drive Her Wild (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/3-oral-sex-tips-that-will-drive-her-wild-video/">oral sex</a> while being tied up is fine, but you want to be untied before having sex so you can participate.</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t ever insert <a title="Homemade Sex Toys – Should You Really Make Your Own? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/homemade-sex-toys-should-you-really-make-your-own-video/">sex toys</a> without your partner&#8217;s consent (and without lube!)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Taking BDSM To The Next Level</h3>
<p>Lots of people enjoy light bondage, but others enjoy heavy BDSM play. If you&#8217;ve tried rope, handcuffs and the like, you may be ready to take your bedroom play to the next level this Valentine&#8217;s Day. Try incorporating a little pain into the mix, with some gentle nipping and biting or spanking. Use a paddle for spanking, as this is so much more comfortable for the spanker than using your hand! It can also feel better for the spankee, because some paddles are padded and shaped just right. Here&#8217;s a quick list of other things you can try this Valentines Day if you feel like you&#8217;ve already tried just about everything else!</p>
<ul>
<li>Roleplaying. Act out a hot fantasy with your partner like teacher/student or doctor/patient.</li>
<li>Diaper play. Do you have a <a title="How To Deal With Your Partner’s Secret Diaper Fetish" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-to-deal-with-your-partners-secret-diaper-fetish/">diaper fetish</a> but haven&#8217;t come out of the &#8220;closet&#8221; so to speak? Try getting your partner involved!</li>
<li>Mutual <a title="Top 10 Female Masturbation Tips" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/top-10-female-masturbation-tips/">masturbation</a>. Never had the guts to masturbate in front of your partner? Give them a show this Valentines Day!</li>
<li>Tantric sex. Want a more romantic way to connect with your partner sexually? Try tantric sex for mind blowing orgasms.</li>
<li>Try new sex positions. After all, new sex positions can make regular old vanilla sex something new and exciting on any night!</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day At Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is the perfect day to surprise your partner with some amazing gifts, but does that mean you have to buy flowers, chocolate, champagne or jewelry to make the day special? Absolutely not! You can make Valentine&#8217;s Day the best one your lover&#8217;s ever had by being creative &#8211; and checking out these great ideas that your wallet will definitely appreciate.</p>
<h3>Jar Of Hearts</h3>
<p>Before Valentine&#8217;s Day, buy one of those huge jars of pickles from the grocery store and transfer the pickles into a large plastic container. Your shopping list should also include red or pink paint and red, pink and white construction paper. Yes, this is starting to sound like a kid&#8217;s Valentine&#8217;s Day craft project, but rest assured that your partner will absolutely love it when you&#8217;re done. Cut the construction paper into medium sized hearts, enough to fill the jar as full as you&#8217;d like &#8211; the fuller it is with paper hearts, the better. On each heart, you&#8217;re going to write something you <a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">love</a> about your partner. Put all the hearts in the jar and swipe a layer or two of red or pink paint on the jar lid. Tie a red ribbon around the top for an extra-special touch. Leave it somewhere your lover will find it on Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p><em><strong>Project Estimate: </strong></em></p>
<p><em>Pickle Jar $5, Construction Paper $3, Paint $1 = $9</em></p>
<h3>Photo Montage</h3>
<p>If you have a lot of photos of you and your significant other together, consider putting together a photo montage together for Valentine&#8217;s Day. There are lots of ways the end project can turn out, but you have to get your photo prints first. Most places (both online and off) will do a single 4&#215;6&#8243; photo print for about $0.08, but watch for special offers from online companies like Winkflash &#8211; where you can sometimes get 50 free prints and $0.99 shipping if you&#8217;re a new customer. Using an online photo printing company is also better if your pictures are in a digital format. Buy a poster size frame and a sheet of poster board, cutting the poster board to fit the frame. Glue the pictures to the poster board and mount in the frame. Voila! A sweet, thoughtful photo montage that will sweep your partner off their feet.</p>
<p><strong><em>Project Estimate: </em></strong></p>
<p><em>Frame $5, Poster Board $0.50, Glue $1, Photos $3 = $9.50 </em></p>
<h3>Sensual Massage</h3>
<p>Women <em>love </em>getting massages, but coughing up $50 for a Valentine&#8217;s Day gift certificate for an hour long massage isn&#8217;t within a lot of guys&#8217; February budgets. Try giving your partner a <a title="Great Sex Begins With A Sensual Massage" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/great-sex-begins-with-a-sexual-massage/">erotic massage</a> yourself for Valentine&#8217;s Day instead! It&#8217;s a great gift because you can make it last as long as you want and it&#8217;s incredibly inexpensive. You probably want to splurge on some kind of scented or pheromone laced massage oil to set the mood and relax your partner, such as Adam &amp; Eve&#8217;s Pheromone Massage Oil. Candles are optional but definitely well worth it if you decide to get them &#8211; you can often find a large bag of plain tea light candles at the dollar store. Imagine the romance you&#8217;ll create with a hundred tea light candles! Bonus points if it leads to <a title="Sex - Articles, Videos, Tips &amp; Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/">sex</a>!</p>
<p><strong><em>Project Estimate: </em></strong></p>
<p><em>Adam &amp; Eve&#8217;s Pheromone Massage Oil $5 (<strong>50% off</strong> and <strong>free shipping </strong>with offer code <a title="50% OFF AND FREE SHIPPING FROM ADAM &amp; EVE" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-toys-vibrators/">DANJENN</a>), Tea Lights $2 = $7 </em></p>
<h3>Dinner And A Movie &#8211; At Home</h3>
<p>Instead of going out on Valentine&#8217;s Day, why not stay in? Plan a romantic candlelight dinner at home cooked by you, followed by a night of romantic movies (or whatever movies you and your partner enjoy most). Make whatever you were planning on making for dinner anyways, but spice it up by putting it on your best dinnerware and eating by candlelight at the table. Play some soft music and definitely don&#8217;t turn on the TV! Pop some microwave popcorn and rent a few movies from your local movie kiosk. Enjoy!</p>
<p><strong><em>Project Estimate:</em></strong></p>
<p><em>Taper Candles $3, Candle Holders $2, Movie Rentals $2 = $7</em></p>
<h3>Balloon Notes</h3>
<p>Buy a pack of <a title="10 Valentine’s Day Kissing Tips" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/10-valentines-day-kissing-tips/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> themed balloons and some construction paper. Cut the construction paper out into hearts, making as many hearts as there are balloons. Write something you love about your partner on each heart and place it inside the balloon. Blow the balloon up and tie it off, writing &#8220;Pop Me&#8221; on the balloons with a Sharpie marker. Scatter the balloons all over your partner&#8217;s bedroom floor before they wake up in the morning and make sure you set the alarm a little earlier than usual so they have time to pop all the balloons and read your loving messages before heading to work for the day!</p>
<p><strong><em>Project Estimate: </em></strong></p>
<p><em>Construction Paper $3, Balloons $2.50, Sharpie Marker $1 = $6.50</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Making <a title="Valentine's Day On Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> sexy doesn&#8217;t have to be difficult. There are lots of super easy and fun ways you can turn up the heat inside the bedroom (or outside of it) for the 14th and most of them don&#8217;t require you to spend a lot of money or go too far outside your comfort zone. Read on for seven excellent sex tips to make this Valentine&#8217;s Day smolder.</p>

<h3>Give The Gift Of Oral Sex</h3>
<p>This Valentine&#8217;s Day, give your partner crazy good <a title="Why Men Love Oral Sex" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/why-men-love-oral-sex/">oral sex</a> &#8211; and we&#8217;re talking <em>crazy good. </em>Not the &#8220;Sure-I&#8217;ll-Give-You-Head-If-You-Want&#8221; oral sex, the &#8220;I&#8217;m-Going-To-Die-If-I-Can&#8217;t-Get-You-In-My-Mouth-Right-Now&#8221; kind. Prep with flavored lubes, do some research on how to please them orally, and plan to be down there about an hour &#8211; or however long it takes! This is not a rush job &#8211; this is a gift, so make it good. Attitude is important here, because if you act like you can&#8217;t wait to get it over with, your partner is going to sense that you&#8217;re not into it. Think of it as savoring a delicious dessert or that you&#8217;re starving and you just can&#8217;t get enough.</p>
<h3>Try Something New</h3>
<p>Make a point to try something totally new and adventurous on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Do something you&#8217;ve never, ever done before. Never tried <a title="Q&amp;A: Anal Sex – How To Keep It Clean And Safe (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-anal-sex-how-to-keep-it-clean-and-safe-video/">anal sex</a>? BDSM? Roleplaying? The trick here is to select something you&#8217;ve never done before, but also something that is only slightly outside of your normal bedroom fare. If you&#8217;ve never tried anal sex, don&#8217;t whip out a huge dildo to use on her backdoor for the first time. Instead, why not gift her a tiny butt plug or try analingus?</p>
<h3>Turn Your Partner Into A Buffet</h3>
<p>Instead of going out for entertainment after dinner on Valentine&#8217;s Day, why not make dinner the entertainment? Certain foods are considered sensual, such as chocolate, strawberries, champagne, sushi and even oysters. You can make these foods even sexier by eating them off your partner! Have your partner lie down on the table naked and set a few pieces of sushi on their bodies for a sexy Sushi buffet. Then for dessert, drizzle chocolate sauce all over them and lick it off &#8211; slowly!</p>
<h3>Go Outside The Bedroom Doors</h3>
<p>This Valentine&#8217;s Day, have sex somewhere other than your bedroom. It&#8217;s a great way to spice up your sex life without using new <a title="Top 6 Valentine’s Day Sex Positions" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-6-valentines-day-sex-positions/">sex positions</a> or bringing sex toys into the mix. You&#8217;d be surprised at what a simple change in location can do for the heat level between you and your lover! Try having sex somewhere else in your house (shower sex anyone?) or get naughty in your local laundromat, the balcony of a hotel room or even in your car. Check out our <a title="1001 Best Places To Have Sex In America" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/best-sex-places/">1001 Best Places To Have Sex In America</a> for the best ideas!</p>
<h3>Bring Out The Sex Games</h3>
<p>After dinner on Valentine&#8217;s Day, take the entertainment home and try out some super hot <a title="Sexy Valentine’s Day Ideas – Sexy Games for Couples (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/sexy-valentines-day-ideas-sexy-games-for-couples-video/">sex games</a> with your partner. There are tons of great sex games available at online sex toy stores like Adam &amp; Eve, such as sexy dice or a sensuous board game with a spinner. If you want to keep things low cost, you can also turn your favorite game into something naughty. Try out naked twister or strip poker with stuff you already have at home, or play a simple but sizzling game of truth or dare. When you use your imagination, you can pretty much make <em>any </em>game sexy.</p>
<h3>Watch Pornography Together</h3>
<p>Unless watching <a title="Adult Movies: Pick Your Pleasure – Porn And Beyond (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/adult-movies-pick-your-pleasure-porn-and-beyond-video/">porn</a> together is something you and your partner do regularly, it can be a super hot way to spice up Valentine&#8217;s Day. If you watch porn together all the time, it&#8217;s not going to feel as special as it will if it&#8217;s a once in awhile treat. Pick a really steamy, erotic movie to watch together and make sure no one else is home. Avoid choosing a hardcore sex flick that just shows people banging away on each other &#8211; something more sensual is best for Valentine&#8217;s Day. You&#8217;ll probably get busy right there on the couch with the movie going! Bonus points for doing it outside the bedroom.</p>
<h3>Put A Twist On Chocolate</h3>
<p>Sure, chocolates are pretty cliche for Valentine&#8217;s Day, but add a twist by introducing chocolate scented <a title="Q&amp;A: Condoms – Magnum, Magnum XL, or XXL? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-condoms-magnum-magnum-xl-or-xxl-video/">condoms</a>, chocolate sauce or even chocolate flavored lube for a great blowjob or cunnilingus. There are tons of great ways to make chocolate sexual. If you&#8217;re feeling really creative, try replacing the chocolates in traditional heart shaped box with chocolate condoms, or put small penis shaped chocolates inside (usually found at party supply stores). Get creative!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day At Ask Dan &amp; Jennifer " href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> doesn&#8217;t have to cost you an arm and a leg if all you&#8217;re trying to do is say &#8220;I love you&#8221; to your partner. But sometimes those three little words just aren&#8217;t enough, especially on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Here are some awesome, creative ideas that will help you show your partner how you feel.</p>

<h3>Mow The Lawn</h3>
<p>This Valentine&#8217;s Day, put an &#8220;<a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">I love you</a>&#8221; message in the lawn. This works best if you live in a warmer area and actually have grass to cut in February. With the mower, write your message in the grass &#8211; it helps if you spray paint the grass first so you have a guide while you&#8217;re mowing. If you have a smaller lawn, just mow a heart. When you&#8217;re done, have your partner look at it from a window on the second story!</p>
<h3>Make Toast</h3>
<p>Check out online cookware outlets or check your local specialty food stores and get an &#8220;I love you&#8221; toast stamper. They&#8217;re sweet, easy to use and usually inexpensive. Make your partner breakfast in bed for Valentine&#8217;s Day, and use the stamper to mark the toast. Your lover will be so surprised that your &#8220;I love you&#8221; message is on the bread!</p>
<h3>Tattoo Their Name On Your Body &#8211; For Fake</h3>
<p>Before Valentine&#8217;s Day, order a special made fake tattoo with their name on it. A quick online search will reveal tons of places you can order name tattoos in just about any kind of font, but be careful when browsing websites that require a minimum bulk order. When you get the tattoo, apply it somewhere on your body in secret. Let them discover it next time you have <a title="Valentine’s Day Gift Idea – Hot Sex And Explosive Orgasms" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-gift-idea-hot-sex-and-explosive-orgasms/">sex</a>! They&#8217;ll think it&#8217;s real!</p>
<h3>Make A Fashion Statement</h3>
<p>Make a t-shirt with their picture on it that says &#8220;I love ___.&#8221;  These are usually easy and inexpensive to make, whether you order one online or have one made by your local photo store. Heck, you can even use a plain t-shirt and puff paints if you want to. The idea is that this &#8220;I love you&#8221; message is a cheesy Valentine&#8217;s Day idea, but it&#8217;s funny and sweet. Proclaim your <a title="Valentine’s Day – 5 Romantic Ideas To Make It Extra Special (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/valentines-day-5-romantic-ideas-to-make-it-extra-special-video/">love</a> to everyone when you wear it!</p>
<h3>Name A Star For Your Partner</h3>
<p>This Valentine&#8217;s Day, do something sweet and special like naming a star after your partner. However, get a little creative with it. Instead of just naming it &#8220;Karen&#8221; after her, make the name &#8220;Jeffery loves Karen&#8221; be the name of the star. You can also try, &#8220;I love you Karen,&#8221; or a line from the lyrics of your favorite song together. Make sure you&#8217;re able to locate it with a telescope so your partner can really enjoy it. This is especially great if you and your lover enjoy stargazing together.</p>
<h3>Make A Radio Announcement</h3>
<p>Plan to have a radio announcement say &#8220;I love you&#8221; to your significant other on Valentine&#8217;s Day. You can also dedicate a song to your lover and have it played after the announcement. Make it super special by having &#8220;your song&#8221; played. Make sure you put it on the radio station that your partner actually listens to, and know approximately what time the announcement will be aired. That way, you can set up a radio in the bathroom to play while they get ready for work, or you can make sure it&#8217;s on that station while you carpool home at the end of the day.</p>
<h3>Make A Lighted Message</h3>
<p>Cut out the words &#8220;I love you&#8221; in a black garbage bag. Tape it up to a window in your home and turn off all the lights in your house except for the lights in that one room. Make sure ALL the lights in that room are <em>turned on. </em>This works best if you plan to get home from work a little while before your partner does on <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>. When your significant other walks up the drive after work, they&#8217;ll see your lighted message!</p>
<h3>Put Up A New Background Pic</h3>
<p>This is a great Valentine&#8217;s Day idea for someone you&#8217;ve been with for awhile (and who doesn&#8217;t mind you looking at or using their phone or computer), because if you do this for someone you&#8217;ve only been <a title="Being Single On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/being-single-on-valentines-day/">dating</a> for a short while, it could actually backfire on you and creep them out. Change the screensaver or desktop background on their computer or phone with a picture of you two and an &#8220;I love you&#8221; message. Next time they flip open their laptop or check their phone, they&#8217;ll see your message!</p>

Instead of giving her a gift she&#8217;s going to expect this Valentine&#8217;s Day, surprise her with a night of super <a title="How To Arouse A Woman And Give Her Sizzling HOT Sex (Warning! These Will Drive Her Wild In Bed)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/how-to-arouse-a-woman-and-give-her-sizzling-hot-sex-warning-these-will-drive-her-wild-in-bed/">hot sex</a> and give her an orgasm (or two&#8230;or three) that she&#8217;ll remember for months after the last frost. Be prepared to give her an encore though - these sex tips will have her lusting after you and begging you for sex every time you turn around!</p>
<h3>Learn How To Give Her Oral Sex</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;ve never gone down on your parnter before (or haven&#8217;t in awhile), make a point to go down south this Valentine&#8217;s Day. You may think you know <a title="Master The Art Of Cunnilingus: Learn How To Eat A Girl Out" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/master-the-art-of-cunnilingus-learn-how-to-eat-a-girl-out/">how to eat a girl out</a>, but take some time to <em>really </em>learn how to push her pleasure buttons when you&#8217;re between her legs. There are so many different ways to please a woman orally that it can be difficult to sort through the ones that look like they&#8217;ll work (and the oral sex tips that look like total bunk), but here are some easy tips to get you started.</p>
<ul>
<li>The <a title="Clitoris 101: 3 Things Men Need to Know about the Clitoris" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/clitoris-101-3-things-men-need-to-know-about-the-clitoris/">clitoris</a> has over 8,000 nerve endings in it. Pay attention to it!</li>
<li>The g-spot is easier to find after she&#8217;s already aroused.</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t head straight for her clitoris &#8211; it may be uncomfortable. Start with slow kisses all around to get her warmed up.</li>
<li>Be prepared to camp out for awhile. Your goal is to bring her to orgasm and it may not happen right away.</li>
<li>Make noise. She wants to know that you&#8217;re enjoying it too.</li>
<li>Make Valentine&#8217;s Day all about hot sex and her pleasure.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Learn How To Give Her A Blended Orgasm</h3>
<p>Women are capable of having <a title="The Key To Giving Women Multiple=">multiple orgasms</a> in one night and they&#8217;re also capable of having two different types of orgasms at one time! Take advantage of the fact that your lover is more versatile in the orgasm department than you are and learn how to give her hot sex this Valentine&#8217;s Day that she&#8217;ll remember for months to come. Most women can have a clitoral orgasm pretty easily (this is most likely the type of orgasm she gives herself during masturbation) and many girls can also reach orgasm through stimulation of the <a title="3 Things All Men Need To Know About The G-Spot" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/3-things-all-men-need-to-know-about-the-g-spot/">g-spot</a>. By stimulating both the clitoris and the g-spot at the same time, you can give her a <a title="How To Have A Blended Orgasm – Your Step By Step Guide" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/how-to-have-a-blended-orgasm-your-step-by-step-guide/">blended orgasm</a> &#8211; both types of climax at the same time! Start with these simple tips.</p>
<ul>
<li>If you&#8217;ve never found her g-spot before, now is the time to locate it. It&#8217;s about 2 inches in on the top wall of her vagina.</li>
<li>Get her aroused first. Licking the clitoris and fingering the g-spot without her being warmed up could be disastrous.</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t try to give her a blended orgasm through penetration at first. You&#8217;re better off using <a title="Sex Tips: How to Finger A Girl" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/sex-tips-how-to-finger-a-girl/">fingering</a> and oral sex.</li>
<li>Switch back and forth between clitoral and g-spot stimulation before you stimulate both at the same time.</li>
<li>Get comfortable. It may take awhile for her to build up to a blended orgasm.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Cuddle With Her Afterwards</h3>
<p>After a night of hot sex (especially on Valentine&#8217;s Day) it is extremely important to let your partner know that she is loved and cherished. Mental stimulation is just as important for a woman as physical stimulation is, and if she gets one without the other, she may be feeling like she got jipped. Take some time after having sex to hold her, whisper in her ear and snuggle with her. Let her know how much you enjoy having sex with her and how great she makes you feel. Even more than the orgasms you gave her, letting her know how special she is will really put her on cloud nine! Here are some things you can say to her to seal the deal and make this Valentine&#8217;s Day truly amazing for her.</p>
<ul>

This is what will really have her coming back for more over and over again!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is well known as the &#8220;<a title="Q&amp;A: Kissing Tips (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-kissing-tips-video/">kissing</a>&#8221; holiday. Whether you&#8217;re planning on having sex later or not, if you have someone to kiss on Valentine&#8217;s Day, you&#8217;re definitely going to be kissing them &#8211; and hopefully for more than just a few seconds. Make this February 14th a day (or night!) to remember with these super sweet and sensual kissing tips.</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t Rush The Kiss</h3>
<p>A great Valentine&#8217;s Day <a title="Drive Him Wild With Just A Kiss – 4 Must Try Moves" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/drive-him-wild-with-just-a-kiss-4-must-try-moves/">kiss</a> shouldn&#8217;t be rushed. Even if you&#8217;re excited to begin <a title="Why Men Love Oral Sex" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/why-men-love-oral-sex/">oral sex</a> or intercourse, rushing through the kiss could actually end up backfiring on you. Kiss your partner slowly and with meaning behind it. Don&#8217;t let your eagerness to get on with other things come through in the kiss &#8211; instead, go slowly and act as though you have nowhere else to be and nothing better to do!</p>
<h3>The Tongue Isn&#8217;t Everything</h3>
<p>When kissing, remember that the tongue isn&#8217;t everything. The lips and teeth play a huge part in a great kiss too! Kiss your partner softly with just your lips, without moving your tongue towards their mouth at all. Nibble their lips and keep yours soft and pushed out slightly so your lover can nibble on your lips too.</p>
<h3>Snuggle In Between Kisses</h3>
<p>For longer <a title="Not Ready for Sex? Here Are 5 Tips For Steamy Makeout Sessions Without Going All The Way" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/not-ready-for-sex-here-are-5-tips-for-steamy-makeout-sessions-without-going-all-the-way/">makeout</a> sessions, it&#8217;s important to take breaks from kissing to catch your breath. In between kisses, don&#8217;t ignore your partner to catch a glimpse at the television or let your mind wander. Instead, snuggle with your significant other and let them know how special they are to you and how good it feels to be wrapped up in their arms. Snuggling will make your partner feel super blissed out, especially on a day like Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<h3>Kissing Is Not A Means To An End</h3>
<p>The biggest mistake that men make when it comes to the art of kissing is that they treat it as though it is a means to an end and a way to get on with more important things, like getting a <a title="Blowjobs 101: What Your Man Secretly Wishes You Knew About Oral Sex… Blow His Mind Tonight Book Review" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/blowjob-how-to-oral-sex-101-book-review/">blowjob</a> or having sex. Most women enjoy kissing in and of itself, and if they feel as though you&#8217;re more interested in getting it on, they may decide they don&#8217;t want to put out or move forward with heavy petting, sex or oral sex.</p>
<h3>Kiss Other Parts Of The Body Too</h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t limit your kissing to just your partner&#8217;s mouth this Valentine&#8217;s Day. Remember to move your lips softly across your partner&#8217;s cheek, nibble their ear and dip your head low to kiss and nibble their neck. Don&#8217;t go below the neck though, or your lover may think that you&#8217;re only interested in <a title="What’s The Best Time To Have Sex?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/what%E2%80%99s-the-best-time-to-have-sex/">having sex</a>! By remembering the sweet spots other than the lips and mouth, you can ensure a great makeout session that doesn&#8217;t bore you or your partner easily.</p>
<h3>Make The Kiss Delicious</h3>
<p>Even if you practice great oral hygiene, you can make the kiss even more delicious by adding mints or candies or even experimenting with temperatures! For a kiss that is cool as a cucumber, pop a breath mint in before kissing your partner. To heat it up, use cinnamon gum, candies or cinnamon mints. Your lover won&#8217;t be expecting a deliciously flavored kiss! You can also bring the temperature up or down by alternating sucking on ice or sipping iced tea with drinking a hot drink such as hot tea, hot cocoa or cappuccino. Just make sure that if you&#8217;ve made yourself a nice cup of joe, that you have one for your partner too!</p>
<h3>Compliment Your Lover</h3>
<p>Use the breaks you&#8217;re taking in between kissing to whisper sweet nothings in your significant other&#8217;s ear. You can, of course, combine this with nibbling and sucking your partner&#8217;s earlobe! Let your partner know how good they look this Valentine&#8217;s Day, or let them know how important or special they are to you.  If you are in a committed relationship with your partner, this would be a good time to tell your partner that you <a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">love</a> them.</p>
<h3>Bring Along The Chapstick</h3>
<p>If you plan on <a title="5 Foreplay Tips That Will Drive Him Wild" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/5-foreplay-tips-that-will-drive-him-wild/">making out</a> with your lover for longer than several minutes (which you probably should if its Valentine&#8217;s Day) both of you are going to end up with some very chapped lips. Bring along the Chapstick to make both of you more comfortable during kissing and after!</p>
<h3>Experiment With Bondage</h3>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to be having sex to have a little fun with <a title="How To Introduce Your Girl To Bondage (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-to-introduce-your-girl-to-bondage-video/">bondage</a>. Practice tying your partner up and kissing them all over! Take turns and let your lover kiss you when you are immobilized.</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t Let Your Partner Get Blue Balls</h3>
<p>Yes, both men and women can get <a title="Blue Clitoris – Can Girls Get ‘Blue Balls’?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/blue-clitoris/">blue balls</a>. If this happens while you are making out, engage in a little heavy petting and give him a handjob, finger her or try sixty-nining for mutual oral sex. If you&#8217;ve had sex before, this would be a perfect time to shed the clothes and let off a little steam!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Turn Fantasies into Reality with Sexy Lingerie" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/flirting-and-seduction/sexual-fantasies-role-play-turn-fantasies-into-reality-with-sexy-lingerie/">Erotic lingerie</a> makes the perfect Valentine&#8217;s Day gift for your partner. It&#8217;s fun, sexy and will make her feel like a million bucks! Unfortunately, buying lingerie for your lover isn&#8217;t always as easy as it sounds. It&#8217;s easy to get the wrong size or buy something that doesn&#8217;t flatter your partner at all. Here is a simple erotic lingerie buying guide so you can get her something that will not only look great on her, but will also be something that she feels super sexy wearing!</p>
<h3>If She Has A Large Bust</h3>
<p>If your partner has a large bust, it may be difficult to find lingerie with an underwire bra that will accomodate her. Often, lingerie bust sizes are a little different from regular bra sizes, so the underwire may not fit right at all. Choose something without wire at all and better yet, without cups too! Even if the erotic lingerie has a &#8220;line&#8221; where the fabric of the bust meets the rest of the fabric, it still may not fit right on her &#8211; for example the &#8220;line&#8221; that should sit underneath her <a title="Q&amp;A: Having A Baby – Will Her Vagina And Breasts Be Bigger? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-having-a-baby-will-her-vagina-and-breasts-be-bigger-video/">breasts</a> may sit on top of them or in the middle, making  it look disproportionate.</p>
<h3>If She Has A Large Tummy</h3>
<p>Many women are self conscious about their stomachs, especially if they&#8217;ve had children. If this is your partner&#8217;s &#8220;trouble spot,&#8221; select erotic lingerie this Valentine&#8217;s Day that doesn&#8217;t show her midriff. Babydoll teddies are perfect for this, because they boast a layer or two of chiffon that is attached to the bottom of the bust and flows gently over the stomach area.</p>
<h3>If She Has A Large Butt</h3>
<p>If your lover doesn&#8217;t like the size of her butt (even if you do!) don&#8217;t purchase lingerie with a thong. Wearing a thong may make her feel as though her worst aspects are on display for everyone to see. Instead, choose panties that have a full rear. You may be thinking &#8220;granny panties,&#8221; but boy shorts or cheekies are actually incredibly sexy and will make her <em>feel</em> sexy too. You may even be able to get crotchless panties that allow for easier access to <a title="Do Tongue Piercings Improve Oral Sex?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/do-tongue-piercings-improve-oral-sex/">oral sex</a>!</p>
<h3>If She Has Large Thighs</h3>
<p>While a lot of men really enjoy seeing their woman wear garter belts and thigh high stockings (especially on Valentine&#8217;s Day), a woman with larger thighs may not appreciate wearing them at all. Most thigh high stockings come in one size only, and may cut into the tops of her thighs creating a &#8220;muffin top&#8221; sort of look. Even if it looks fine to you, she may still be very self conscious about it. Instead, choose  erotic lingerie that reaches her knees or ankles, such as a piece with a long skirt or one that looks more like a dress but has a sexy slit up the side. You may be able to choose something that covers her thighs but accentuates her breasts to make her feel great about herself and still give you a show!</p>
<h3>If Her Breasts Are Small</h3>
<p>If she has small breasts, an underwire bra is your best bet. Simply check the size of her bras at home and get lingerie that is closest to that size. Even padded or push up bras are appropriate in this case &#8211; as long as it accentuates what she&#8217;s got and doesn&#8217;t cover it up. Avoid purchasing anything with too much padding, even if her breasts are very, very small. She&#8217;ll feel like you think she doesn&#8217;t have anything up there at all! If you pick the right lingerie, she&#8217;ll feel great strutting around you on Valentine&#8217;s Day with a delectable cleavage and you&#8217;ll certainly enjoy the way she looks too!</p>
<h3>If Her Legs Are Short</h3>
<p>No matter what type of erotic lingerie you buy for her this Valentine&#8217;s Day, if she has short legs, make sure you pick out a pair of stilettos or high heels to go with it. You don&#8217;t necessarily have to get the super tall ones that strippers wear (unless she&#8217;s worn them before and knows how to use them without breaking her neck) but anything with at least a three or four inch heel will make her look and feel tall and <a title="Fun, Sexy Party Ideas (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/fun-sexy-party-ideas-video/">sexy</a>.</p>
<h3>If She&#8217;s Fit</h3>
<p>If your partner is fit and looks great in just about anything, your job really is easy this Valentine&#8217;s Day. You can pretty much buy any erotic lingerie and she&#8217;ll feel good in it. Just pay attention to her attitude and if she&#8217;s a more demure kind of girl, don&#8217;t go out and get something super slutty (unless you&#8217;ve discussed the idea with her beforehand). Alternatively, if she&#8217;s a <a title="Kinky Sex 101: Adding Flavor To Vanilla (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/kinky-sex-101-adding-flavor-to-vanilla-video/">kinky</a> gal, lingerie that covers everything up just won&#8217;t do.</p>

Sure, you can buy jewelry, plan a romantic dinner and do the whole flowers and chocolate thing, or you can plan something much more loving and romantic that will literally blow your lover away with your thoughtfulness. Check out these great romantic Valentines Day ideas and surprise your lover with something much more than a simple gift!</p>

<h3>Arrange For Both Of You To Take The Day Off</h3>
<p>Surprise your honey on Valentines Day with a day off for both of you &#8211; but arrange for her day off with her boss in private so she doesn&#8217;t know about it. Make breakfast for her in the morning and let her know that she doesn&#8217;t have to go in to work, and then spend the day going out on a <a title="Being Single On Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/being-single-on-valentines-day/">date</a>, having lunch, shopping or catching a new movie together at the theater. Whatever it is that you and your partner enjoy doing, spend the Valentines Day doing it together and take the opportunity to bond and reconnect.</p>

<p>You&#8217;ve heard of the 12 days of Christmas, right? Take that concept and apply it to Valentines Day this year. For the twelve days leading up to Valentines Day, give your partner small gifts on every day, saving the biggest and best gift for the 14th. The gifts can be small or large, depending on your budget. Small gifts work just as well if you aren&#8217;t able to spend a lot of money, because the idea behind this &#8220;gift&#8221; is that you&#8217;re showing your partner that you&#8217;re thinking of them every day for twelve days! The gifts can be <a title="The Secret to Lasting Love – Better Than Flowers And Chocolate (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/the-secret-to-lasting-love-better-than-flowers-and-chocolate-video/">flowers and chocolate</a>, kisses, cards, letters, etc. Just use your imagination! The idea is to celebrate your love for twelve consecutive days, regardless of which gifts you choose to give on those days.</p>
<h3>Plan A Getaway</h3>
<p>If you have the money to spend, plan a short getaway with your partner for the weekend or just for a couple days. Go somewhere warm and sunny just when it&#8217;s coldest outside, or if you enjoy the cold, rent a cabin in the mountains and spend a few days snuggling by a fire and tearing up the ski slopes. Even if you don&#8217;t have the budget for an entire weekend trip, plan a night out at a hotel in your town or a nearby town. You&#8217;d be surprised at how even just one single night at a hotel and just getting out of the house on Valentines Day can make a huge difference in how hot your sex life is! Plan for an awesome night, try new <a title="Top 6 Valentine’s Day Sex Positions" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/top-6-valentines-day-sex-positions/">sex positions</a> or even play a few <a title="Sexy Valentine’s Day Ideas – Sexy Games for Couples (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/valentines-day-ideas-tips/sexy-valentines-day-ideas-sexy-games-for-couples-video/">sex games</a> that will get you and your lover&#8217;s blood boiling for each other.</p>
<p><strong>Bring Back The Mix Tapes</strong></p>
<p>Remember back in the day when you would make a mix tape for someone you cared about and give it to them as a gift? Bring that idea back this Valentines Day, but do it in an updated way. Buy your partner a nice MP3 player and load it up full of your favorite songs. Make sure you fill it with songs that mean something to the two of you, especially if you have a song that you both consider as being &#8220;your song.&#8221; Wrap the MP3 player up and gift it to your lover to show them how much you really <a title="How To Tell Her You Love Her – 5 Romantic Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-tell-her-you-love-her-5-romantic-ideas/">love</a> them!</p>
<h3>Rent An Inflatable Hot Tub</h3>
<p>If you think you can&#8217;t afford a hot tub or have to rent a hotel with a jacuzzi in the room just to get your bubbly on this Valentines Day, think again! Lots of cities have places where you can <em>rent </em>an inflatable hot tub, even just for a few nights! Set up the inflatable hot tub in the middle of your living room or bedroom (or on the back deck, or wherever you have space) and surround it with hundreds of candles or sparkling lights. If you have two stories, make sure you find space on the bottom floor of your house or apartment to set up the hot tub to make sure there aren&#8217;t any huge accidents. Share a great conversation with your lover in the hot tub while sipping champagne and feeding each other chocolate, strawberries or your other favorite <a title="Eat Your Way To Better Sex – 6 Foods That Will Boost Your Libido" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/eat-your-way-to-better-sex-6-foods-that-will-boost-your-libido/">sexy foods</a>. If you plan on having sex in the hot tub, make sure you use silicone <a title="Sex Tip: Choosing The Best Lubricant For The Job (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/sex-tip-choosing-the-best-lubricant-for-the-job/">lube</a> &#8211; water based lube isn&#8217;t going to hold up for very long in the water because it rinses right off!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is all about trying new things, and new <a title="The Best Sex Positions To Make A Woman Orgasm Quicker" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/the-best-sex-positions-to-make-a-woman-orgasm-quicker/">sex positions</a> are at the top of the list for a steamy evening that will last long into the night! Try these amazing new sex positions (that&#8217;s right, you&#8217;ve probably never tried them before) and create a Valentine&#8217;s Day that you and your partner will never, ever forget!</p>
<h3>Bended Knee</h3>
<p>This <a title="Best Sex Positions For Losing Weight" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/best-sex-positions-for-losing-weight/">sex position</a> isn&#8217;t difficult to do, but it may require a hard surface such as the floor or a very firm bed. Face your partner while sitting up on your knees. The man will lift one of his knees so that it makes a 90 degree angle and his foot is on the floor. He will be resting most of his weight on his other knee, which is still on the bed or floor. The woman will lift her leg and drape it over her partner&#8217;s thigh (the one he lifted up) and both partners will bring their groins together. This amazing sex position allows for face to face contact (which is important on Valentine&#8217;s Day) and gives the sensation of standing up without either partner having to hold the other up.</p>
<h3>Sit &amp; See</h3>
<p>Have the man sit on the edge of a bed or couch with his feet touching the floor. His partner will straddle him while facing him and insert his <a title="Q&amp;A: What Is A Normal Penis Size? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-what-is-a-normal-penis-size-video/">penis</a> into her vagina. This sounds like a regular sitting position, but the fun part is yet to come (no pun intended). The woman will then lean back, holding on to her partner&#8217;s hands to keep her balance. If she has a hard time doing this, she can pull an ottoman or other object over to the bed to lay back on for more support. This amazing sex position is a great Valentine&#8217;s Day gift for the man because he is able to completely view her entire body, which is stretched out for him to marvel at and play with.</p>
<h3>Reverse Doggy Style</h3>
<p>Feeling a bit more like having <a title="Kinky Sex 101: Adding Flavor To Vanilla (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/kinky-sex-101-adding-flavor-to-vanilla-video/">kinky sex</a> this Valentine&#8217;s Day? Try the reverse doggy style position, which is actually better suited for anal sex than vaginal penetration. The woman gets on her hands and knees and lifts her rear in the air, just as though she were getting ready for the regular doggy style sex position. However, instead of facing her, the man will face away from her and lower his penis into her from above. This is one of the more difficult sex positions to achieve, and he may have more luck by facing a little bit to the side rather than directly behind her. He can then use his hands to finger her g-spot or clitoris!</p>
<h3>Spooning Blowjob</h3>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day just isn&#8217;t fun without a little bit of <a title="Why Men Love Oral Sex" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/why-men-love-oral-sex/">oral sex</a> involved. For an intense blowjob, have a man lie on his side on the bed. The woman will then lay at a 90 degree angle, placing her head in between his legs. Her legs will be behind him. This will afford the woman a little bit more comfort during the blowjob, as she will be able to rest her head on his thigh as she performs fellatio. This can get a little kinky if both partners are into it &#8211; the man can grab his partner&#8217;s head and thrust into her mouth as she goes down on him. Don&#8217;t be afraid to prop yourself up with pillows to provide more support.</p>
<h3>68 &#8211; For Her</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s just as important for her to get oral sex this Valentine&#8217;s Day as it is for him. In this titillating sex position, the man can focus totally on her pleasure &#8211; and get a little kinky if he wants! The man will lay on his back, as though he were preparing to sixty-nine. The woman will then lie down on top of him with her vagina towards his face. Instead of lying with her stomach touching his stomach like in the traditional sixty-nine position, she will lie with her back to his stomach and the back of her head will be resting in his groin area. This affords him total access to her vagina and <a title="Clitoris 101: 3 Things Men Need to Know about the Clitoris" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/clitoris-101-3-things-men-need-to-know-about-the-clitoris/">clitoris</a>, and if both partners are into analingus, this can easily be done in this position also.</p>
<h3>Sybian-Style Cowgirl</h3>
<p>Every girl loves the cowgirl position because it gives her more control over her pleasure and <a title="How To Give Her Mind Numbing, Leg Shaking Orgasms – The Female Orgasm Black Book Review" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/female-orgasm-black-book-review/">orgasm</a>. This particular sex position gives the woman even more control, because she can use her legs more easily to thrust up and down against her partner&#8217;s penis. Have your partner lie down with his back on an ottoman and his feet on the floor. The woman will then straddle her partner, with one leg on each side of her partner and her feet on the floor. This is an amazing sex position for g-spot orgasms!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A couple of days ago a reporter asked if I would help him with a column he was writing about <a title="10 Tips for Surviving Valentine’s Day Whether You’re Single or Attached" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/10-tips-for-surviving-valentines-day-whether-youre-single-or-attached/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>. He started off by asking, &#8220;If you&#8217;re single, where should you go to meet people?&#8221;</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s a question that&#8217;s impossible to answer without more information. I mean, where should you go to eat if you&#8217;re hungry? First you need to specify what kind of food you like, or you may end up at completely the wrong restaurant! If you don&#8217;t outline your preferences and desires, then it&#8217;s like saying that any random relationship will do, when obviously that&#8217;s not the case. I mean, you can show up at any bar and meet someone, but will they be someone who is right for you?</p>
<p>I told the reporter, &#8220;Finding the right person to start a relationship with isn&#8217;t just about meeting someone. If you approach it that way, then you&#8217;re relying on luck, which can waste a lot of time and emotion. If you don&#8217;t want to waste time trying out a lot of different options, then you need to focus on what you really want, and be clear about that. Then you need to hang out at the places where you think that type of person will be. It&#8217;s surprising how little effort you actually have to put in when you set a strong intention. Or, if you prefer some of the excitement of chance, you can mix with the sort of people you get along with, and see what happens. Your choice.&#8221;</p>
<h3>The Secret To A Great Valentine&#8217;s Day When You&#8217;re Single</h3>
<p>He then asked about <a title="How To Survive Being Single This Valentine's Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-survive-being-single-this-valentines-day/">coping strategies for singles on Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>. This is a pretty simple attitude adjustment, and works like any other aspect of life &#8211; you can either celebrate what you have, or bemoan what you don&#8217;t. There&#8217;s no reason not to treat yourself like royalty on Valentine&#8217;s Day, or any other day for that matter. You&#8217;ll find that life will mirror how you treat yourself, and Valentine&#8217;s Day is a great opportunity to turn over a new leaf of loving yourself more and more everyday. The sooner you start doing this, the more people will want to be around you.</p>
<p>But the reporter still wasn&#8217;t getting it. &#8220;So, where&#8217;s the best place for people to look for romance?&#8221; he asked.</p>
<p>The truth is, there is no magical place to <a title="Single? Take the ‘Why Am I Single?’ Love Quiz, Maybe You’ll Find Out Why…" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/online-dating-sites-and-reviews/single-take-the-why-am-i-single-love-quiz-maybe-youll-find-out-why/">look for love</a>, except inside yourself. The world reflects only what you put out there, and if you&#8217;re giving love then you&#8217;re bound to get it in return. So quit looking for some special venue where you think the love is, and start getting things align within yourself instead. Focus on what you want, and that focus will carry you to where you need to be to meet the right person. You&#8217;ve already tried it the other way around, by just looking for &#8220;someone&#8221; and ending up with whomever you found. How did that work out for you? Instead, try doing the things that make you happy, and hanging out with the people who reflect that happiness.</p>
<p>In other words, the key is not trying to meet someone, but rather finding out who you are and being clear about what you&#8217;re looking for.</p>

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are supposedly calling it quits, while Brad is rumored to be back in contact with Jennifer Aniston. And Elin has put her divorce proceedings on hold while Tiger allegedly hashes it out in rehab. I spoke to OK!Magazine on this very subject, saying that I believe most relationships CAN be kept together. In my practice, 98% of couples can work things out, you just have to be honest about addressing what problems you&#8217;re facing, and committed to dealing with them.</p>
<p>Ok, it&#8217;s not THAT easy, which is why I&#8217;m re-releasing my book, Make Up, Don&#8217;t Break Up, with new, updated insights into why we do what we do, how to break bad behavior patterns, the male dilemma of intimacy, and how to make the decision to stay together! I address topics like gender wars and <a title="3 Ways to Make Your Long Distance Relationship Work" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/3-ways-to-make-your-long-distance-relationship-work/">long distance relationships</a>. I also expand on a few of my techniques, which I&#8217;ve mentioned in my blog posts before, but I think bear repeating especially in light of upcoming Valentine&#8217;s Day and with people focusing on love and relationships.</p>
<h3>How To Break Bad Behavior Patterns</h3>
<ul>
<li>Don&#8217;t underestimate the Biochemical Craving for Connection. More than being needy or clingy, we all need to connect in a deep and meaningful way with our partners. But some people have exaggerated feelings of stress, separation and loss that cause them to seek out illicit behavior in order to fill this craving. If you&#8217;re in this situation, you can avoid a lot of heartache by identifying it and dealing with it early on.</li>
<li>Learn how to fight fair. It&#8217;s a misperception that fighting is bad; a relationship without passion enough to launch arguments likely won&#8217;t last for the long haul. However, arguing in the wrong way can also drive a relationship into the ground. I encourage having a weekly ten minute “Smart heart”-to-heart with a figurative emotional &#8220;bullet proof vest&#8221; to protect from hurt, anger and defensiveness, as you listen and echo back what you heard.</li>
<li>Consider a brush with death. This can be an extreme measure when it looks like a relationship may be coming to its end. This is a scenario in which a couple agrees to spend time apart with the intention of working things out and <a title="How A Disagreement Can Bring You Closer" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/how-a-disagreement-can-bring-you-closer/" target="_self">getting back together</a>. &#8211; A temporary break up can help resolve certain issues, and creates a shake-up that many couples need. In certain circumstances, this is the only thing that will create an action step which will make reconnecting and making up easier to do. Remember that it MUST be a strategy, not something entered into half-heartedly.</li>
</ul>
<p>Whether or not you&#8217;re in a <a title="Relationnship Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/relationship-advice/">rocky relationship</a>, I encourage you to take this time, when “love is in the air” and focus on some things about your relationship that you&#8217;d like to improve upon or change. Have an affair with your own partner and plan for some romance!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Make this <a title="Valentine's Day Gift Ideas " href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> hotter than ever by doing something totally exciting and unexpected in the bedroom! Instead of doing the same old, boring thing that you do every Valentine&#8217;s Day, try something new and fun. This is the perfect time to get a little kinky, and spice things up for both you and your partner. Here are a few ideas to get you started.</p>

<h3>Vibrators</h3>
<p>Instead of your traditional <a title="Sex Toys And Vibrators" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-toys-vibrators/">vibrator</a>, try wearing some vibrating boy shorts all day to get you hot and ready for the big night! Put them on while your partner pleasures you in different ways, to increase y0ur orgasmic potential. Also, boy shorts with a larger sized <em>remote control </em>vibrator puts your pleasure in your partner&#8217;s hands! Give him total control over your body, even from another room. Wear them all day and let him surprise you with pleasure again and again.</p>
<h3>Bondage</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re into <a title="How Do I Introduce BDSM To My Boyfriend? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/bondage-fetishes-fantasies/how-do-i-introduce-bdsm-to-my-boyfriend-video/">bondage with a willing prisoner</a>, splurge a little on some inexpensive japanese bondage rope or handcuffs specifically designed for the bedroom. Scarves work well too, but rope from the boat, car or garage just won&#8217;t do. You want something soft, stretchy and made for bondage to do the job. Japanese bondage rope is an easy to use, soft &#8220;rope&#8221; that actually tightens a little when you try to resist. Another great toy is an under the bed restraint &#8211; this restraint actually &#8220;threads&#8221; under your bed and provides you with soft, velcro cuffs at all four corners of the bed for each of your willing prisoner&#8217;s arms and legs.  The under the bed restraint also features adjustable straps that you can tighten or loosen at your discretion. Take some turns trying out your new toys and being prisoner and prison warden for a kinky Valentine&#8217;s night that you&#8217;ll never forget!</p>
<h3>Kinky Valentine&#8217;s Day Treasure Chest</h3>
<p>A great way to spice up your <a title="Great Valentine’s Day Resorces For A Hot, Sexy Evening You Won’t Forget" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/great-valentines-day-resorces-for-a-hot-sexy-evening-you-wont-forget/">Valentine&#8217;s night</a> with some fun new toys is to get a &#8220;grab bag&#8221; with lots of stuff inside. The Fetish Fantasy Series bondage gear box is like a treasure chest full of fun things to use on Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; and afterwards! A red, fuzzy, heart shaped paddle, velcro cuffs with heart chain links and warming massage oil are among the many suprises in this fun treasure chest. You and your partner will have a blast seeing what&#8217;s inside! Take your toys to a hotel for an even hotter Valentine&#8217;s night, or simply stay at home and lock the door. Just remember, Valentine&#8217;s Day is about trying something new and different to spice up your sex life. Keep an open mind and a great attitude!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Valentine's Day Gift Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/valentines-day-gift-ideas/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is quickly approaching, and couples who are ready to have some hot, sexy fun just can&#8217;t get enough creative ideas to get their juices flowing! This year, make Valentine&#8217;s Day special for your significant other, spouse or partner by trying out a few sexy games for couples. Here are some great ideas!</p>

<h3>Trying New Ideas</h3>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is all about going outside your box. Doing something exciting or something outside the norm of your sexual routine will help make this <a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">V-Day</a> one that you and your partner will remember forever! Use this opportunity to get a little crazy or kinky, wear something you wouldn&#8217;t normally wear or do something you wouldn&#8217;t normally do. A great &#8220;game&#8221; to play is using a &#8220;fantasy box.&#8221; You can use a plain box if you like, or decorate it in sexy lace and marabou, but whatever you do, the concept is the same. You and your partner will write several of your fantasies down on a piece of paper and on Valentine&#8217;s Day, pull a few out of the box. Sharing your fantasies this way will help you and your partner be more open to each other&#8217;s fantasies, as well as help keep you or your partner from being as embarrassed about sharing your fantasies if you were to confess them out loud.</p>
<h3>Fun Games To Try</h3>
<p>A great way to spice up your <a title="Q&amp;A: Valentines Day Gift – Anonymous Or Not? (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/qa-valentines-day-gift-anonymous-or-not/">Valentine&#8217;s Day night</a> is to paint each other&#8217;s bodies. Get creative with this one. Use fun, brightly colored edible body paint, or just finger paints from the store. Use chocolate sauce or caramel for something extra sweet. Have fun painting it on, and then lick or wash all the paint or sauce off sensually. A sexy card game is always in style, and will have you and your partner communicating about your sexual desires in no time. This is a great game to play if you and your partner have trouble talking to each other about sex and what you do or don&#8217;t like in bed. Another classic Valentine&#8217;s Day game is strip poker, and while the original version is great, some of the newer styles of strip poker are incredibly fun! Some versions of strip poker actually have colored chips that have ideas of fun and sexy activities on them, as opposed to simply removing your clothes. You have to bet what you&#8217;re willing to do!</p>
<h3>Be Open And Ready For Anything</h3>
<p>When planning a special night with your partner, whether it&#8217;s Valentine&#8217;s Day or any other night, your attitude is one of the most important things to consider. Having an open mind and being ready for some <a title="Top 10 Resources for Valentine’s Day Ideas, Tips, and Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/top-10-resources-for-valentines-day-ideas-tips-and-advice/">sexy, spur of the moment fun</a> will help make your night special.</p>

Should you give them a gift at all, or give them an anonymous gift? Here&#8217;s what to do if you&#8217;re stuck on getting your crush a gift &#8211; or not.</p>
<blockquote><p>Question: I have a question seeing as its nearly <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">February 14</a>. I was going to get the girl I really like gifts, but I&#8217;m afraid to because she will know it&#8217;s me [we're both teenagers]. What should I do?</p>
<p>&#8211;YouTube Viewer</p></blockquote>

<h3>Afraid Of Rejection</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re afraid of getting the girl (or guy) you like <a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">a gift for Valentine&#8217;s Day</a>, it&#8217;s more likely that you are not so much afraid to get them a gift (and them knowing it is you who got them the gift) but you are afraid of rejection. Everyone is afraid of rejection, especially when it comes to dating, such as asking a girl or guy out. Here&#8217;s a sound piece of advice &#8211; don&#8217;t worry so much about rejection. Many times, when you get rejected, it has nothing to do with you. It&#8217;s not <em>you </em>who is being rejected. Most of the time, the girl or guy already has some things going on in their life that they are just too involved with at that time to be accepting of a gift or a date. For example, a girl may say &#8220;no&#8221; to a date because her puppy just died, or because she&#8217;s in a relationship, or because she&#8217;s a lesbian. Hey, you never know. More often than not, it has absolutely nothing to do with you as a person.</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t Regret What You Didn&#8217;t Do</h3>
<p>If you hold out on yourself, and don&#8217;t ask out the girl you like or give her the <a title="Sexy Valentine’s Day Idea: Fun In The Tub (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/sexy-valentines-day-idea-fun-in-the-tub/">special gifts</a> you want to give, you&#8217;re going to be regretting it your entire life. Many people spend the rest of their lives wishing they did something they didn&#8217;t do, because they wonder how it would have turned out if they had done it. Don&#8217;t let life slide past you that way! Give her the gifts, say they&#8217;re from you, and tell her you like her. Do you really have all that much to lose? Even if you <em>do </em>get rejected, you can at least say that you took that step and weren&#8217;t afraid of making your feelings known. If you don&#8217;t do it, you&#8217;ll wonder for the rest of your life what it would have been like if you had.</p>
<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is about showing the people you like or love that you care. Whether it&#8217;s your spouse, your girlfriend or boyfriend or simply someone you have a crush on, Valentine&#8217;s Day is the day to let it all come out. Don&#8217;t hold back! If you like them or love them, let them know. Let them know how special they are to you, and don&#8217;t be afraid to say that you enjoy having them in your life, even if it&#8217;s just your friend! Valentine&#8217;s Day is the <a title="Q&amp;A: Top 10 Valentine’s Day Gifts For Men (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/qa-top-10-valentines-day-gifts-for-men-video/">best day of the year</a> to let your feelings about someone be known. So go for it, take the risk and show someone that you care!</p>

Girls are easy to buy for &#8211; chocolates, flowers, jewelry. Cliche? Yes, but when have women <em>ever </em>not liked flowers or jewelry? Men, on the other hand, are a little bit tougher to buy for. So here are some great ideas for what to get <em>him </em>this Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; because YOU asked!</p>
<blockquote><p>I have a question &#8211; what gifts do guys like to get for Valentine&#8217;s Day?</p>
<p>&#8211;YouTube Viewer</p></blockquote>

<ul>
<li><strong>Sexy Lingerie.</strong> Every guy loves seeing his woman in negligee. Make sure to find some that <em>fits </em>you &#8211; you want to look good and feel confident. Feel like you have a muffin top in the garter belt? Try a sweet, lacy babydoll instead. Your <a title="Sexy Valentine’s Day Idea: Fun In The Tub (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-toys/sexy-valentines-day-idea-fun-in-the-tub/">confidence is what makes it the sexiest</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Have A Wild, Sexy Night.</strong> No good girls allowed! Be naughty, but definitely don&#8217;t be nice! Take this one night to let the wild girl inside you go.</li>
<li><strong>Try A Sex Game.</strong> Ever played a sex game before? They&#8217;re fun, and downright kinky at times. A sex game will not only take the guesswork out of what to do next, it keeps the night full of fresh, sexy ideas so you and your partner will never get bored.</li>
<li><strong>Sext Him.</strong> It&#8217;s Valentine&#8217;s Day, so sex is pretty much in the bag, right? Sure, but why not <a title="Top 10 Resources for Valentine’s Day Ideas, Tips, and AdviceTop 10 Resources for Valentine’s Day Ideas, Tips, and Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/top-10-resources-for-valentines-day-ideas-tips-and-advice/">titillate him all day</a> with racy text messages about what you&#8217;re going to do to him when you finally get him home alone? He&#8217;ll be so hot by the time he walks in the door, he won&#8217;t be able to help but jump all over you.</li>
<li><strong>Send Him A Racy Photo.</strong> One of the great things about cell phones is that the majority of them have a picture app. Take a racy (or raunchy, depending on how you guys like it) photo of yourself and send it to him as a surprise, given that you are18 or older. He won&#8217;t be able to stop thinking about you all day! Bonus points if you take a photo of yourself in the new lingerie you bought for the occasion.</li>
<li><strong>Fulfull His Deepest, Wildest Fantasy.</strong> Yes, your man has a fantasy. Has he told you about it yet? Probably not. If you can get him to divulge, let him know that this Valentine&#8217;s Day, his fantasies are going to come true. This may take some advance planning though, especially if it involves costumes and the like.</li>
<li><strong>Do A Sexy Striptease.</strong> Every guy loves <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">a good striptease</a>. Give him one like he would get at the club. Don&#8217;t know how to dance? No problem. A little writhing and grinding while he&#8217;s sitting in a chair is just as good.</li>
<li><strong>Get Him A Cool New Gadget.</strong> Is your guy a techie? How about getting him the latest gadget for his phone or laptop?</li>
<li><strong>Get Him Tickets To See His Favorite Team Play.</strong> If your guy is a sports buff, game tickets are a shoe-in.</li>
<li><strong>Give Him A Really Awesome Blowjob.</strong> What man doesn&#8217;t LOVE a good blowjob? None. Not one. So get some flavored lube and give your guy a fabulous one. Make the night all about him. He&#8217;ll go absolutely nuts!</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Picking a present for your honey on <a title="Top 10 Resources for Valentine’s Day Ideas, Tips, and Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/top-10-resources-for-valentines-day-ideas-tips-and-advice/">Valentine&#8217;s Day</a> is tough. Especially if you want to <em>do </em>something fun and sexy for them instead of getting chocolates, flowers or pink teddy bears. So here&#8217;s a great idea for this Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; get hot, get wet and get in the tub with some brand-spanking-new sex toys for a night of soapy fun!</p>

<h3>Spend Valentine&#8217;s Day With Your Partner</h3>
<p>Spending a lot of money on jewelry for your partner or buying an expensive gift is way &#8211; <em>way &#8211; </em>overrated. Valentine&#8217;s Day is about celebrating the fact that you and your partner are together and <a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">in love</a> &#8211; so why throw money away on a gift just to say you did something for Valentine&#8217;s Day? Why not spend time <em>with </em>your partner and enjoy being together alone? Most couples don&#8217;t get a lot of alone time these days, especially if they have children together. Take some time out on Valentine&#8217;s Day to make love &#8211; and <em>be </em>in love!</p>
<h3>Check In To Fun</h3>
<p>Get away from the house for a night and check into a hotel, even if it&#8217;s just across the street from where you live. Different surroundings will definitely set the mood for <a title="5 Easy Ways to Make This Valentine’s Day Sizzle" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">a night of fun and romance</a>. Just one thing the hotel must have? A Jacuzzi or a garden tub <em>in</em> the room. This Valentine&#8217;s Day you&#8217;re going to have fun in the tub &#8211; but not just any old tub and certainly not the tub you take showers in and bathe the kids in every day. How romantic is stepping on a wet Barbie doll while you&#8217;re trying to get it on?</p>
<p>Set the ambiance in the hotel by purchasing some nice smelling bath additive that is safe for hot tubs, light some candles (or use safer LED candles) and bring strawberries and champagne. Or cheeses and champagne. Or a decadent dessert and champagne. Get the picture? Bring champagne. Just make sure that whatever you bring to eat isn&#8217;t going to sit heavy on the stomach and make you want to nap instead of play. Also, bring something to do. Cards for strip poker, a sexy movie to watch or anything that sparks your interest. You don&#8217;t want to get through the door, put your bags down and say, &#8220;Okay, are you ready to have tub sex now?&#8221; Make it more interesting than that.</p>
<h3>Foreplay In The Tub</h3>
<p>Make sure that you&#8217;re also well prepared for having fun in the tub. Waterproof vibrators are always fun, especially if this fabulous Valentine&#8217;s Day occasion will be their maiden voyage. Sexy bathtub games are fun too and are great at keeping things from getting boring too quickly. There are a wide variety of <a title="Insane Discounts On Sex Toys From Adam &amp; Eve" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-toys-vibrators/">fun, sexy toys</a> that can be used in &#8211; and out &#8211; of the bathtub to make this Valentine&#8217;s Day a great one. Being prepared with fun things to do in the tub and lots of sexy foreplay ideas will help make the night memorable instead of quick and dirty. Remember, it&#8217;s all about having a great time and enjoying being with your partner!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before all the women reading this blog get their panties in a knot thinking I am anti-Valentine&#8217;s Day by saying “Happy Hallmark Day,” let me make one thing clear . . . you&#8217;re 100% correct! I am anti-Valentine&#8217;s Day.</p>
<h3>What&#8217;s So Special About February 14th?</h3>
<p>I for one believe that you don&#8217;t need a special day in the middle of February (or a little past the middle with there being 29 days in February this year) to <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/5-easy-ways-to-make-this-valentines-day-sizzle/">celebrate your relationship and your love</a> . . . or to give that microchip-sized diamond pendant from Kay Jewelers. Half of you are still paying off the bills you incurred at Christmas telling your sweetheart you love them.</p>
<p>I personally think that Valentine&#8217;s Day should be moved to April 14th – the day before tax day. Think about the headline: “Stressed out having to send the government $20,000.00 tomorrow? Celebrate today by going to Kay Jewelers and buying a microchip-sized diamond pendant!”</p>
<p>Not only that, I can already see the marketing campaign. Somehow Kay Jewelers and the IRS will get together and write it off. “If you buy the microchip pendant now, you can write it off on your 2007 tax return.” I know no one is going to pass that law, though, so let&#8217;s get back to my love of Valentine&#8217;s Day.</p>
<h3>Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8212; Old School Style</h3>
<p>Do you know when I loved Valentine&#8217;s Day? I loved it when I was a kid and I got to go to school with my box of Valentine&#8217;s cards to give to everyone. You know the ones I&#8217;m talking about – the ones where the whole box costs about $2.00 and contains little cards that say “Be My Valentine” coming out of Snoopy&#8217;s mouth.</p>
<p>You also got to hand out those disgusting heart-shaped candies that tasted like fourteen year old Tums. You remember those, right? The ones where you give them to someone, and as they eat them dust comes out of their mouth when they tell you “At least I won&#8217;t have heartburn this Valentine&#8217;s Day!” Tums really should start to put slogans on their little chalky tablets that say things like “Be Acid Free,” I like No Acid,” “Care To Swap Some Stomach Acid?” or “My Heartburn Burns For You!”</p>
<p>Those chalky colored heart candies had sayings on them like “Melt My Heart,” Puppy Love,” “Kiss Me,” “Sweet Talk” and the classic “Get My Drift.” I remember they made a special one based on an episode of “Happy Days” where the Fonz handed ones out that said (misspelled) “You&#8217;re the ginchiest.”</p>
<p>While those candies haven&#8217;t gotten any better tasting over the years, at least some people have gotten a little more creative with the sayings on them. Why not <a href="http://www.badcupid.com/candy1.shtml" target="_blank">check out some more &#8230; interesting sentiments to say to your sweetheart</a> this Valentine&#8217;s Day?</p>
<p>Anyway, it was really fun to go into your classroom and give out 50 valentines and bags of bad candy. That was a fun Valentine&#8217;s time.</p>
<p>Now what do we do on Valentine&#8217;s Day? You have to make reservations at a restaurant where they double the price of same food they serve every other day. Even McDonald&#8217;s bumps up the price (and the cholesterol count) for Valentine&#8217;s Day.</p>
<h3>A Funny Valentine&#8217;s Story</h3>
<p>Since we&#8217;re taking a trip down memory lane, let me tell you about one of my favorite Valentine&#8217;s Days. It was the year I opened my bar in New York City, and I was broke. Let me tell you . . . opening a bar on 28th? I had no right to do that.</p>
<p>So it was Valentine&#8217;s Day, I only had a few bucks, and I had to get my then girlfriend a Valentine&#8217;s gift. So I&#8217;m walking down the street and see a guy selling stuffed animal bears out of a garbage bag. I asked him how much they were, and he said a couple bucks. Since that was about all I had, I said “I&#8217;ll take it!”</p>
<p>I was so proud of my purchase – the bear was white and really cute. So I walk in the door with the bear behind my back and said “Happy Valentine&#8217;s Day baby! Look what I found on the way home!!”</p>
<p>As I&#8217;m still holding the bear behind my back, my golden retriever Jessie grabs it out of my hand in one violent motion. So I said “Jessie drop it!” She did, but she kept her eyes fixated on it. So my girlfriend Jessie (God, I&#8217;m sounding like Dr. Bob now) grabbed the bear and hugged it.</p>
<p>All of a sudden her face contorted and she got a look of disgust on her face. I said “What&#8217;s wrong?” She answered (holding the bear toward me) “Smell this!” Meanwhile the golden retriever&#8217;s tail is going 100 mph. I took a whiff of the bear and said “It sort of smells like the zoo.”</p>
<p>We made the joint (and quite easy) decision at that point to give the bear to my dog Jessie, who loved “yellow bear” until the day she died. To this day, we have no idea what animal marked that bear. We had a good laugh about it, made some dinner, and created a nice Valentine&#8217;s Day memory.</p>
<h3>Create Your Own Valentine&#8217;s Day Memories</h3>
<p>Now I&#8217;m not telling you to find an animal, have it pee on a stuffed animal, and then give it to somebody. What I am suggesting, however, is for you to get one of those 50-count boxes of kids&#8217; Valentine&#8217;s cards and bring them home tonight so that your sweetheart can open up every single one of them.</p>
<p>You could even buy her a bag of those seventeen year old dusty heart candies with such magical phrases as “Be Mine” on them. Sometimes the “M” looked like an “N,” though, so the candy looked like it read “Be Nine” and thinking you were playing Battleship yelling “B9!”</p>
<p>So you see, I really don&#8217;t hate Valentine&#8217;s Day. I just think <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/10-romantic-tips-to-make-any-woman-happy/">it&#8217;s more fun to be creative</a> than to make a reservation at a restaurant. So if anyone wants to “Be Mine” for Valentine&#8217;s Day, I&#8217;ll be here.</p>
<p>Now let me ask all of you one question. What was your favorite Valentine&#8217;s Day and why?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Remember how special it was as a kid to make a handmade, crayon laden card with all the special hearts and “gushy” words on it (or at least all the words we knew at Kindergarten or First grade)?</p>
<p>Remember how the <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/">simple token of love</a> given by our little hands to our mothers or fathers made more of a difference to them than all the candy Whitman&#8217;s chocolates? I&#8217;m thinking maybe we need to return to those simple gifts and ideas in these times of great financial distress.</p>
<p>In case you didn&#8217;t notice we are in a recession—could be in a depression&#8211; and one of the things we need to remember as we approach Valentine&#8217;s Day is the simple acronym K.I.S.S.: “Keep It Simple Stupid!”</p>
<h3>Simple Things Mean The Most</h3>
<p>You&#8217;d be surprised how simple things can make such lasting memories and enjoyable intimate moments together. Think of the Bailey&#8217;s from “It&#8217;s a Wonderful Life” &#8212; enjoying a simple night at the old rickety house (and their future home) when their expensive trip away to Bedford Heights went up in smoke. Memories like that will last a long, long while.</p>
<p>So stop looking at your wallet like it&#8217;s your enemy! Sure you don&#8217;t have cash, but you have imagination and the determination to <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/5-ways-to-say-i-love-you-without-actually-saying-it/">tell the one you love how much they mean to you</a>.</p>
<h3>Great Ideas For Little Cash</h3>
<h4>1.The greatest perfume in the world is Pine Sol.</h4>
<p>Guys, this is for you because you need to know what is the best perfume available for the woman you love. Pine Sol. Lysol. Clorox. Dawn. You get the idea? These are better perfumes than some woman spraying you at a department store causing you to smell like you bathed in a vat of Chanel No 5.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/questions-for-couples-how-well-do-you-really-know-your-partner-1000-must-ask-questions-for-couples/">Before your sweetie comes home to see you, impress her</a> with a clean kitchen; a living room fit to eat on the floor with candles and a bowl of fruit to feed her with; a bedroom with candles blazing as you have massage oils to pamper her with.</p>
<p>Using any of these “perfumes” will drive any woman crazy. The pine scent or lemony freshness will linger in her mind for days and weeks to come. You could make this a permanent thing if you like the results.</p>
<h4>2.The greatest meal in the world is from your home.</h4>
<p>Do you think you have to take your man or woman to an expensive restaurant to show how much you love them? Hogwash! If you know what your lover enjoys on their plate, then get a cook book for goodness sake.</p>
<p>Get the food from the grocery store to make your special dish; get some tips on line to how to put it together; make the dinner a place of wonder and excitement as they come to sample your meal.  Afterwards, make them desert&#8230; for their bodies.</p>
<p>Get a bowl full of fruits, whipped cream, yogurt, chocolate syrup, and other sweet and sticky goodies and make the moment a reason to enjoy the night together. You&#8217;ll never look at your Banana Split the same way again once you&#8217;ve used your confections on them.</p>
<h3>More Great Ideas&#8230;.</h3>
<h3><strong>3.Find someone to make your kids disappear.</strong></h3>
<p>Make the kids disappear (yes, really) from the room so you can enjoy your sweetheart naked. Phase the kids out of your mind  for one night (or more) while you dream of ways to spread your lover on the table for passionate love making with no abandon.</p>
<p>A good sitter, a friend with kids with a free night handy to give you, or a very special event involving a “sleep over” comes in handy. Utilize your “parental card” and push those lovely kids on someone else for one—or more&#8211; night(s) <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/how-to-go-down-on-a-woman-and-have-her-begging-for-more-oral-sex-secrets-exposed-lick-by-lick/">so you and your spouse (or significant other) can get down to some nasty fornicating</a>.</p>
<p>You remember how to do that don&#8217;t you? You just act like your parents are away from the house for a long time and you do every naughty thing you&#8217;ve been craving to do since you picked up a copy of “The Joy of Sex” from your parent&#8217;s bedroom.</p>
<h4>4.Go to an adult boutique or bookstore together.</h4>
<p>This may cause money or rankle your sensibilities to buy a pair of edible undies or a ball gag. You may also feel uncomfortable about entering such a place because of the stigma it entails. It doesn&#8217;t have to be.</p>
<p>Just browsing the store together to see what turns you or your lover on is a very liberating thing. Not only do you get a peek into the mindset of your lover, you can also take down the walls that keep you from expressing your sexual side towards each other.</p>
<p>Even if you break down and by a vibrator or an adult movie you get the best way of enjoying a moment like this together. <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/sex-tips-love-making-secrets-that-everyone-ought-to-know/">Go on and take the darn thing home for a test ride</a>!</p>
<h4>5.Take a “walk” on the wild side.</h4>
<p>Sometimes just spending time together is the most inexpensive, loving, and bonding thing money can&#8217;t by. If you got to get out of the house, then get out of the house. WALK. RUN. GO!</p>
<p>Go around the neighborhood, take a walk along the river, hold hands, kiss, neck, get close, make out, or get wild. Now, if you do get too wild make sure you <em>a)</em> not cause a stir with others out and about and<em> b)</em> you are careful where you plan to get “wild” to avoid some skin rash or a brush with nature you don&#8217;t want to encounter.</p>
<p>These are but a few inexpensive ways to make sure Valentine&#8217;s Day (or any romantic day) one for the ages.</p>
<p>Just because the boys and girls on Wall Street are cutting back and layoffs abound doesn&#8217;t mean you don&#8217;t have to scrimp on the one commodity that never runs dry: Intimacy and love.</p>
<p>Those things are always bullish and there is never a bearish thing about it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recall vividly my first Valentine’s Day as a widow, four years ago. I knew there would be no one to buy a small chocolate gift for, nor was there a gift to be received from my husband who had passed away nine months before. Knowing how special days can weigh on someone who is facing them alone, especially for the first time, I decided to think ahead and create my own day of fun.</p>
<p>Thinking about various ways I could spend the day, I settled on celebrating in a low-key manner with close friends. <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/">I felt I really didn’t need to be alone</a> on a day when most couples celebrate or think of each other, thus reminding me of what I didn’t have. And since my kids were older, they were off on their own adventures.</p>
<h3>A Single Gal&#8217;s Plan Of Action</h3>
<p>After deciding on a plan of action, and unwilling to spend the day alone, I treated myself and invited two girlfriends out to dinner with me. It was a way to be with others who I cared about and I knew cared about me. It was also a way to bring some light-hearted <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/free-online-dating-personals-meet-sexy-singles-near-you-search-to-get-started/">normalcy to my social life, which was seriously lacking</a>.<br />
I had turned down several dinner invitations during the cold winter months and holidays. I had tended to isolate myself, so our dinner was an unexpected delight – an enjoyable evening of conversation and laughter, something I hadn’t experienced in some time.</p>
<p>I talked and connected with two people who I’d known for some years, and to whom I’d grown closer since the loss of my husband. By dinner’s end I was thankful that I&#8217;d thought ahead to create new memories, and thankful for the support of my friends. It felt good to laugh again, a simple joy. Afterwards, we went to see a movie, a lighthearted comedy that brought up more laughter.</p>
<h3>Finding Joy And Laughter This Valentine&#8217;s Day</h3>
<p>At the end of the evening, once I was back in my own home, I remembered that in grief, or divorce, we are missing an important part of what once was &#8212; but it doesn’t mean there has to be an absence of joy and laughter in our lives. You can smile again, even if at first it&#8217;s only one evening at a time.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re single on Valentine&#8217;s Day – open yourself to joy and laughter. It’s not reserved for those who have never lost; it is there for everyone if we <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/online-dating-tips-and-advice/revealing-new-online-dating-book/">keep our minds and hearts ready for the life that comes our way</a>.</p>

<h2>The Perfect Last Minute Valentine&#8217;s Gift Idea</h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the big day approaches, it’s easy to lose perspective and go into meltdown mode…</p>
<h3>1. Remember that Valentine&#8217;s Day is ONE day out of a whole 365 days!</h3>
<p>If you’re attached, keep yourself grounded in this reality and <a title="The Secret to Lasting Romance: How Subtlety Could Save Your Relationship" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/the-secret-to-lasting-romance-how-subtlety-could-save-your-relationship/">avoid making Valentine’s the tipping point of your relationship</a>.</p>
<p>If you’re single, much as it might seem like the entire universe is celebrating their love on the 14th, they aren’t, and you can’t let your whole emotional world collapse. Love is something to be celebrated all year round.</p>
<h3>2. Manage your expectations but most importantly communicate them.</h3>
<p>Are you expecting the sun, moon, and the stars even though you’ve only been in your relationship for a short period of time? <a title="Top 10 Resources for Valentine’s Day Ideas, Tips, and Advice" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/top-10-resources-for-valentines-day-ideas-tips-and-advice/">Does your partner dislike Valentine’s day</a> and hasn’t previously lived up to your expectations?</p>
<p>I’m not suggesting that you remove the element of surprise or spontaneity, but if you’re the type of person that is likely to feel very disappointed if the day isn’t what you expect, it’s time to discuss your expectations so that you can 1) find out if they are realistic, 2) share your thoughts with your partner, and 3) free the both of you to have a day that you can enjoy.</p>
<h3>3. Do not create drama or get stressed about it.</h3>
<p>It’s supposed to be a celebration of love but it is very easy to ruin the lead up to it or the actual day.</p>
<p>Whether you are the type of person that resents Valentine&#8217;s day and feels inadvertently pressured by your partner or the commerciality of it, or whether you’re that <a title="14 Creative Valentine’s Day Ideas" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/14-creative-valentines-day-ideas/">person who lives for Valentine’s day and expects a big gesture</a>, if the person you are with is at conflict with your outlook, you will find yourself in the very unpleasant drama zone.</p>
<h3>4. Remember that you’ve saved some money and been spared the pain of scratchy underwear and other such tacky gifts.<strong> </strong></h3>
<p>It can be quite difficult to <a title="How to Use Modern Technology to Add Old-Fashioned Romance to Your Relationship" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/using-modern-technology-to-add-old-fashioned-romance-to-your-relationship/">come up with something original and inspired for Valentine&#8217;s day</a> and there aren’t many of us who haven’t had love dice, love cheques, cheap flowers from the petrol/gas station, furry handcuffs etc, never mind paying over the odds to be packed like sardines into a restaurant with a set menu.</p>
<p>It’s not about throwing the cash around if you are attached, and if you aren’t, pat the extra cash, or treat yourself to something nice.</p>
<h3>5. Don’t go on a first date.</h3>
<p>There is a lot of expectations and unnecessary pressure when you have a first date on Valentine’s. Be very careful of knee-jerking into a new relationship as we make some of our worst decisions when we’re <a title="How To Survive Being Single This Valentine’s Day" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/how-to-survive-being-single-this-valentines-day/">insecure and desperate to avoid singledom</a>.</p>
<h3>6. If you’re single, embrace the day and spend it with those that you love most.</h3>
<p>Some of my best night outs have been when I’ve been single on Valentine’s. If you’re not the type that can let the day pass without feeling a bit anxious, hang with your other single friends,</p>
<h3>7. No drink dialing.</h3>
<p>Do you want to wake up on the 15th with a banging headache and regrets that you’ve made a fool out of yourself <a title="Is it OK to Have Sex for the Sake of REALLY Good Sex… With No Relationship Commitments?" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/sex-tips-advice/sex-for-sake-of-good-sex-no-commitments/">calling your ex, or even worse, you’ve slept with them</a>? No matter how horny or sentimental you get, wait till the next day to see if you still feel the same when you’re sober.</p>
<h3>8. Don’t seek validation from the day.</h3>
<p><a title="Why There’s Still Hope for Marriage" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/love-and-romance/marriage-divorce-why-there-is-still-hope-for-marriage/"> If your relationship has issues</a>, gritting your teeth and eeking all of the sentiment out of the day is going to be the equivalent of papering over the cracks of your relationship. Don’t rely on this day to make your relationship but certainly don’t use it as the sole reason to break your relationship either. Likewise if you’re single, don’t think that the absence of a mate or a date <em>invalidates </em>you.</p>
<h3>9. Valentine’s day extends to self-love.</h3>
<p>As Luther Vandross said “Love the one you’re with” and this time, that’s YOU. V-day spells a great time to <a title="The Relationship Secret - How to Use the Law of Attraction in Your Relationships (Video)" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/love-relationships/relationship-advice/the-relationship-secret-using-the-law-of-attraction-in-your-relationships-video/">evaluate where you are and what you want out of life and your relationships</a>. If there is any overhang from the past, start to deal with it and get happy before you throw yourself back in the dating saddle.</p>
<h3>10. Make an effort and small gestures all year round.</h3>
<p>If you do this, Valentine’s day won’t feel like guzzling water for the first time after being lost in the desert for a year…</p>

<p><strong>&#8220;Going Solo on Valentine&#8217;s Day &#8211; Advice for Singles&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>The stores are decorated in candy hearts, flowers and bears. Every TV or radio commercial reminds you that it’s time to remember your sweetheart on this special day for lovers.</p>
<p>Your feelings range from sadness to anger. What’s a single person to do?</p>
<p>The following suggestions are designed to both answer that question and to help you have a good day after all, while working to make this your last solo Valentine&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p><strong>Celebrate the day by planning an activity that is enjoyable to you and provides you with a special treat. </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Go to a day spa for &#8220;the works&#8221;</li>
<li>Plan an intimate dinner for 3 or 4</li>
<li>Go ice-skating or to the movies with a fun friend</li>
<li>Go out to dinner and a movie with a group of other singles</li>
<li>Focus on what you enjoy and make a conscious decision about how to mark the day</li>
<li>Un-Valentine&#8217;s Day parties are very popular</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Design a relationship-building plan.</strong> Let the holiday provide you with the motivation to take risks, try new ideas and gain the knowledge that will enable you to find and create a lasting, intimate relationship.</p>
<ul>
<li>Sit down at the computer or with pen and paper in hand and get your plan written down.</li>
<li>Begin by making a list of resources that can be used to help you meet available singles.</li>
<li>These can include: on-line dating sites, singles groups, volunteer activities, or participation in sports or</li>
<li>Other activities that you enjoy. Decide when and how often you will participate in any activity you choose.</li>
<li>Make a budget for both time and available funds for this purpose.</li>
<li>Do your homework and research each resource so the information will be available when you need it.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Review those intentions and resolutions you made</strong>, or make some if you haven’t yet, and be sure you are implementing and sticking to those that will ensure that you are really ready for that special relationship. Being the kind of person you want to be with is the first step. &#8220;Become the Date or the Mate You Want to Have.&#8221; Taking care of yourself and living well will optimize your chances for relationship success.</p>
<p><strong>Start today.</strong> Work to eliminate negative thinking. Think of all the possibilities that could open up for you. Hopefully these tips will assist you in having a better &#8220;solo&#8221; Valentine’s Day than you might have been headed for. Enjoy the day by doing something fun. Then focus on your relationship plan and empower yourself to build the healthy, lasting relationship of your dreams.<strong> </strong></p>

<p>While we feel that you should treat every day in your relationship like Valentine&#8217;s Day, we do want to help you make this special day incredibly romantic and memorable for both you and your sweetheart.</p>
<p>As we get closer to Valentine&#8217;s Day, we&#8217;ll continue to update our blog with any cool resources or ideas that we find.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a great article from Michael Webb at <a title="TheRomantic.com" href="http://danandjenn.666666.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_blank">TheRomantic.com</a> with some really creative ways to say &#8220;I Love You&#8221; this year.</p>
<h3>&#8220;14 Creative Valentine&#8217;s Ideas&#8221;</h3>
<p>By Michael Webb, Founder <a title="TheRomantic.com" href="http://danandjenn.666666.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_blank">www.TheRomantic.com</a></p>
<p>Here are <a href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/singles-dating/date-ideas-fun-romantic/date-ideas-fun-creative-michael-webb-300-dates/">14 Creative (yet inexpensive) ways to say &#8220;I Love You&#8221;</a> this February. Do your friends a favor and forward this message to them.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Sleep under the stars</strong><br />
Buy some glow in the dark stars from the toy department and arrange a special message above your bed.</li>
<li><strong>Their very own coloring book</strong><br />
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.</li>
<li><strong>Computer romance</strong><br />
Change the screen saver on the computer to a scrolling message. For added effect, use a wingding or character font that can&#8217;t be read without decoding.</li>
<li><strong>Got milk?</strong><br />
Hide a bunch of silly prizes and a card in your love&#8217;s favorite cereal.</li>
<li><strong>Jump start the romance</strong><br />
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.</li>
<li><strong>Rubber ducky races</strong><br />
Go to a nearby river or stream and race rubber ducks. The loser takes the winner out for dessert.</li>
<li><strong>Warm the heart</strong><br />
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.</li>
<li><strong>Music to their ears</strong><br />
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.</li>
<li><strong>A winter picnic</strong><br />
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).</li>
<li><strong>Send a mail bomb</strong><br />
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.</li>
<li><strong>The personal touch</strong><br />
Gently scratch his back for ten minutes while he falls asleep or brush her hair for the same amount of time.</li>
<li><strong>Mirror, mirror on the wall</strong><br />
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.</li>
<li><strong>The Jelly Belly game</strong><br />
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.).</li>
<li><strong>Welcome home!</strong><br />
Use chalk to write a welcome home greeting on the sidewalk.</li>

<p>Our top pick is from one of our favorite men in the romance area &#8211; Michael Webb.</p>
<p>&#8220;One of the least romantic days of the year is Valentine&#8217;s Day. Yes you heard me correctly. The majority of men act like robots, purchasing flowers and chocolate for their sweethearts because that is what everyone else is doing. Many people celebrate the day out of obligation rather than celebration.</p>
<p>Here are some ways to celebrate Valentine&#8217;s Day a bit more romantically and creatively.&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s our favorite book from Michael Webb &#8211; <a title="300 Creative Dates" href="http://danandjenn.300dates.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_blank">&#8220;300 Creative Dates&#8221;</a>. If you don&#8217;t have it yet, we highly recommend it!</p>

<p><strong>&#8220;</strong>The Valentine’s Day gift you choose for your loved one and how you decide to spend the day says a lot about the quality of your relationship, so give something that has real meaning to you. Gifts from the heart don’t have to be expensive. Since the traditional gifts of flowers or chocolates don’t last forever, here are ten creative ways to express your love.&#8221;</p>

<p>Great article for women&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. You have been in a relationship with a man for a while, but he hasn’t been committed to you. You might wonder about him: “Is he going to commit to me on Valentine’s Day?” “Is he going to propose on Valentine’s Day?”</p>
<p>Valentine’s Day is actually the best day to break up with a partner if the relationship isn’t going anywhere. My 27 Valentine&#8217;s Day tips are politically incorrect, but they are always practically correct.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Some say that time is the greatest Valentine’s Day gift you can give your partner. But what if you run out of things to say? While that isn’t likely, consider offering your lover an erotic bedtime story, or an erotic poem to start off Valentine’s Day right. If time or creativity constraints prevent you from penning your own words of love or lust, consider these collections of new and classic erotic writings.&#8221;</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Give the gift of a goods night sleep this Valentines Day. 

Here's a really great article that we found about how to make sure that both you and your partner get a good nights sleep. Dan and I have had many late night 'conversations' on our differing views about how the bed should be made, how many blankets to put on the bed, how the sheets should be tucked in, when the bed should be made - on and on... 

As a couple, this has been one of the very few sore points in our relationship. You see, I like to be warm and cozy with little regard to sheet alignment and Dan requires very little cover and perfectly aligned sheets and blankets before he gets into bed. Considering that I normally go to bed before him, his aligning the sheets at 1am has cause many a late night squabble. 

We've actually implemented several of the suggestions in this article and they've made a huge difference for us. The great tips in this article are sure to improve your relationship help you both get a better night sleep - together!

<div class="summary"><strong>Scientific studies abound</strong> on how many hours we Americans spend in bed sleeping, having sex, or lying awake wondering when we’ll get to sleep or have <a title="sex and intimacy" href="http://www.askdanandjennifer.com/sex-intimacy/">sex</a>. The level of scrutiny is somewhat mystifying, given the fairly obvious findings. (In round figures: not enough, not nearly enough, and is it any wonder Ambien sales have skyrocketed?)</div>
<p><strong>Bottom line:</strong> on average, we’re between the sheets for more than a third of our lives. Any place you spend that much time should make you happy, and never more so than when it’s 60 by 80 inches and there are two of you. Your bed should be supremely, beckoningly comfortable, so you can rest; and as co-habitable and conflict free as possible, to help you nest.</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small;">Sheet smarts</span></h3>
<p>In the last couple of years, thread counts­ &#8211; the number of threads in one square inch of fabric­ have crept into the four digits. But do higher numbers indicate softer sheets?</p>
<p>Only to a point&#8230;</p>
<p>After about 500, what you’re paying for are the salaries of those tricky folks in the marketing department who realized they could describe a 500-thread-count sheet as a 1,000­ if it’s woven with two-ply thread. The truth is that you’re likely to find 300- or 400- count sheets plenty luxurious (and easier on the checkbook). Guests staying in the presidential suite at the Four Seasons in New York City, one of the priciest hotel rooms in the country, pay $15,000 a night and they’re resting their weary, wealthy bodies on 220-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets.</p>
<p><strong>Egyptian is the key here</strong> &#8211; ­that variety is acknowledged to have the longest fiber, another contributor to softness. Once you’ve selected sheets, of course, you have to share them.</p>
<p>And there, the troubles too often begin.</p>
<p>One couple we know disagrees on <strong>how to tuck in the top sheet.</strong> He likes to anchor a generous swath so his feet don’t poke out. She likes enough covers to form a turtleneck at the top. The solution is simple, though it took them a while to figure it out: they tuck in the sheet at an angle.</p>
<p>A more common cause for conflict among couples is the side-to-side shortage, caused by a<strong> sleeper who rolls over… </strong>and over and over. On a queen bed, a king-size top sheet can ease the tussle. For hardcore cases, we suggest two top sheets overlapped in the middle. At bedtime, the illusion is that you’re cozily covered by the same sheet. Later, the roller winds up in his, or her, own little burrito without uncovering his bedmate.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Dan and Jennifer:</em></span></strong> This one is a non-issue for us &#8211; we both love soft! Egyptian cotton is definitely the way to go and we recommend 600-800 thread count sheets. Macy&#8217;s Hotel collection is awesome if there&#8217;s a Macy&#8217;s in your area.</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small;">Topper tips</span></h3>
<p>In the bed-as-battleground department, <strong>second to sheet spats are temperature tantrums. </strong></p>
<p>One partner prefers to set the A/C on “cryogenic” while the other lies shivering in flannel pajamas ­in August. Clearly, this is grounds for a blanket intervention. The most heated arguments we’ve heard between partners with a body-temp differential are caused by down duvets, which have taken bedrooms by storm.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, no matter how “summer weight” a duvet claims to be, it always seems to make someone sweat. And try throwing off a duvet when you feel a little steamy. It becomes a fabric-and feathers snow bank threatening to avalanche. So we’re fans of the sheet-and-blanket combo. The enormous variety of fabrics and weights lets you fine-tune your comfort level: cotton for summer, wool for warmth and pleasing heft in winter.</p>
<p>The point is to layer independently: <strong>cover the entire bed with a lightweight cotton blanket, then on your side, add a cashmere throw.</strong> (Electric blankets are a retro, but remarkably effective alternative. Equipped with dual remotes­ and no wires­ you each control the temp on your half of the bed.)</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Dan and Jennifer:</em></span></strong> Dan has a light weight down blanket on his side and I have an added quilt, folded in half on my side of the bed &#8211; that way we are both comfy and cozy.</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small;">Mattress matters</span></h3>
<p>But even the finest bedding can’t make up for a bed with bad ergonomics.</p>
<p>Unfortunately&#8230; Buying a mattress (you need a new one about every ten years) can be as confusing as selecting a cellular plan.</p>
<p><strong>What you’re looking for is a mattress that conforms to your spine’s natural curves.</strong> It should be neither so firm that your body touches down only at three or four points, nor so soft that you sink into it like marshmallow cream. That can be tough to determine in a quick test-drive at the mattress shop.</p>
<p>One hint: you can change positions up to 40 times while you sleep, so shift, turn, and try out multiple arrangements of limbs. Still, the best way to avoid mattress remorse is to sleep on the one you’re considering ­preferably for several nights in a row.</p>
<p>That may explain the <strong>growing popularity of hotel mattress-purchase programs,</strong> which have cropped up in hotels from the Ritz-Carlton to La Quinta. You slept soundly every night of a weeklong trip? Bring the bliss home by buying the identical mattress. If that’s impractical, you should find a dealer with an exchange policy that gives you a week or more with a mattress before you commit (many do).</p>
<p>An easier question to answer than “how firm?” is “how big?” If you’re often joined in bed by kids, dogs, and his-and-her laptops, then a king-size bed (76 inches wide) might be right for you. But we’re fans of the 60-inch wide queen, because it better fosters a &#8220;couple connection&#8221;.</p>
<p>Yes, each of you sacrifices eight inches of elbow room, but that means you’re always within snuggling distance. Remember, we’re talking a third of your lives. You shouldn’t be at each other’s throats. You should be in each other’s arms.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Dan and Jennifer:</em></span></strong> Dan gets way too hot to snuggle in bed.  We make up for it with lots of hugs and kisses during the day, but at night, we keep our distance and stay on our own sides of a great big King Size mattress.</p>
<p>Our bed, which we think is the single most comfortable bed in existence, is a Stearns and Foster, no flip mattress (one of those really thick mattresses that you see in luxury hotels). The mattress is so comfortable that it makes you want to stay in bed all day!)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you want to just meet your partner&#8217;s expectations on Valentine&#8217;s Day, or do you want to make this a Valentine&#8217;s Day they will never forget?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s start by defining &#8216;romance&#8217;. This may sound easy, but just ask a few different people and you&#8217;ll get as many answers as the number of people you ask. Is it something to do with love? Is it togetherness and spending time together?</p>
<p>From my perspective, romance is a celebration of the life you live together. Romance is not responsibility but it is truly caring about your responsibilities towards your lover and partner. Romance is the appreciation of two people who are celebrating the love that they share with one another.</p>
<p>How do you make this an incredibly romantic Valentine&#8217;s Day?</p>
<p><strong>Here are 5 tips to make your Valentine&#8217;s Day sizzle.</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-68"></span></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Don&#8217;t Buy a card</strong>. Anyone can buy a card&#8230; Why not be a little more creative and write your valentine a love letter poem.  If you&#8217;re not a poet, a quick search on Google should get what you need. Take this opportunity to tell your valentine why you love them, what you find most attractive about them, and how much you appreciate your relationship.</li>
<li><strong>Know what they like</strong>. Don&#8217;t just go out and buy the standard flowers and chocolate. That&#8217;s the lazy way out&#8230; Get your valentine a gift that will actually mean something to them on a personal level. What do they like to do? What kind of music do they like? What are they passionate about?</li>
<li><strong>Rather that a gift, go on a special date</strong>. Again, think about something your valentine truly enjoys, dancing, dining out, or snuggling on the sofa to watch a great movie &#8211; a movie that your valentine wants to see.</li>
<li><strong>Everyone loves a little suspense</strong>. Start building up to Valentine&#8217;s Day a little in advance. Hint about your plans or gift without giving too much away. This will let your valentine know that you&#8217;re thinking about them and that you&#8217;re really excited about this special day.</li>
<li><strong>Think &#8216;romance&#8217;</strong>. Romance includes the words you say, your body language, and your surroundings. Make sure that your attention is 100% on your valentine, not the day&#8217;s events or latest sports scores. Get some candles, turn down the lights, and put on some romantic music to create a truly romantic atmosphere.</li>
</ol>
<p>Not coming up with any great ideas?</p>
<p><strong>Here are some Romantic ideas to get you started.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Breakfast in bed.</li>
<li>Make your valentine&#8217;s favorite meal or take your valentine out for a special dinner.</li>
<li>Send your valentine (male or female) flowers at work. If you are on a tight budget, give just one single hand-delivered flower. Remember, it&#8217;s the thought not the quantity.</li>
<li>Do something unexpected! Drive across town to take your Valentine out for lunch.</li>
<li>Send a gift basket of indulgent items.</li>
<li>Embroider &#8220;I Love You&#8221; on his pillowcase. You could also use a water resistant marker.</li>
<li>Poetry is traditional for Valentine&#8217;s Day. Make up your own or buy a book of love poems that you can read together.</li>
<li>Dedicate a favorite song to your Valentine on a radio show that he or she will be listening to.</li>
<li>Write &#8220;I Love You&#8221; in lipstick or shaving cream on the mirror. You could also tape a heart with the words &#8220;I Love You&#8221; if you prefer an easier clean up.</li>
<li>If your sweetheart is going to be away from you on Valentine&#8217;s Day, get several Valentine&#8217;s Day cards and put them in different places in his or her luggage. You could sequence them with &#8220;Open Me on February 14th&#8221; or &#8220;Open Me on February 15th&#8221; to create some suspense. Don&#8217;t limit this idea to just Valentine&#8217;s Day!</li>
</ul>

<p>The study shows we are now in <a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-2207280-10373972" target="_blank">National Break-Up Season</a>, the period between the December holidays and Valentine&#8217;s Day when people are more than twice as likely to think about breaking up than at any other time of the year. </p>
<p>January, with all its focus on resolutions to be healthier, richer, and happier, naturally leads couples to take stock of their relationships and think about whether they are with the right person. Love is in the air alright, but not for everyone&#8230; </p>
<p>According to&nbsp;<a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-2207280-10373972" target="_blank">Yahoo!Personals</a>,&nbsp;&nbsp;nearly 4 out of 10 people will reassess their dating life. </p>
<p>&quot;&#8217;Find a new love&#8217; is up there with &#8216;lose weight&#8217; and &#8216;save more money&#8217; as a New Year&#8217;s resolution,&quot; said Anna Zornosa, vice president and general manager, Yahoo! Personals. &quot;People tend to &#8216;put up&#8217; with current relationships in order to have a partner for holiday gatherings, but once the festivities are over it&#8217;s time to decide whether to fish or cut bait.&quot; </p>
<p>National Break-Up Season affects not only people ending the relationships but also those being left and the friends who will be asked to console and counsel them. Looking at break-ups from all sides of the story, Yahoo! Personals has created a Survival Guide offering advice on how to make a break-up less painful for everyone. </p>

<p>If you do find yourself in the middle of a break up, here are 5 things that we think will help.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Get a journal to vent your pain, anger, and frustration.<br />  </strong>Never under estimate of putting your thoughts on paper.&nbsp; It allows to get your feelings out of your head and prevents them from eating you alive from the inside out. It can keep you from saying things to your EX you may later regret. Write out all of those nasty things that you would like to say in your journal instead &#8211; you&#8217;ll feel just as good and will avoid any unnecessary altercations with your EX.&nbsp; </li>
<li><strong>Don&#8217;t try to stay friends &#8211; at least not at first&#8230;<br />  </strong>In the beginning, you both need time to heal and truly get over the relationship. Trying to be friends during this stage, will only cause you to hold on to those old feelings. If you have obligations that require you to stay in contact like children or your job, don&#8217;t talk about your former relationship, your new partners, or anything else that you know&nbsp;may be a&nbsp;volatile topic. Keep your conversations relevant to your children or work&nbsp;and away from highly those charged emotional topics.&nbsp; </li>
<li><strong>Delete them from your life.<br />  </strong>Delete their phone number from your speed dial, delete all of their emails, cards, and letters. We recommend that you get rid of anything and everything in your home that&nbsp;holds any&nbsp;energy or emotional charge&nbsp;from the relationship. Everything that your keep ties your energy to theirs and will make it very difficult to attract new experiences, and new people,&nbsp;into your life.&nbsp; </li>
<li><strong>Give yourself time to heal.</strong><br />  Don&#8217;t jump right into another&nbsp;relationship to fill the emptiness that you may now be feeling. Allow yourself time to experience the pain and feel the anger. Understand that you&nbsp;are not your anger and you are not your sadness. They are just experiences, however intense,&nbsp;that should be welcomed into your life just as much as joy and happiness. We need these experience to grow and to become stronger. The best way to get over something hurtful is to allow yourself to truly experience it. Here is a terrific program that has helped both Dan and I get rid of tons of old emotional baggage: <a href="http://www.sedona.com/" target="_blank">The Sedona Method</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; </li>
<li><strong>Focus on you.</strong> <br />  Take the time right after a break-up to examine your life. Get in tough with what&#8217;s really important to you.&nbsp; Often in a relationship, especially a long term relationship, our passions and goals get intermingled with our partner&#8217;s. Sometimes, we can even forget the things that we really love and enjoy.&nbsp;&nbsp; Here&#8217;s a great resource to help you get back in touch with your true passions: <a href="http://www.healthywealthynwise.com/cmd.asp?Clk=1584538" target="_blank">The Passion Test</a> </li>
