Lady Friday On Keeping Things Sizzling Long-Distance

Rescu Freelance — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 1:01:15 GMT

So you or your significant bedroom other has moved overseas, is taking a prolonged trip, and is just generally not in the same city/country.

Which is great - independence! - but how do you keep the sex as excellent as it would be if you shared a postcode?

RESCU's here to help.

Here are our top tips for sizzling long-distance sex - and all you'll need is an internet connection and a webcam...

1. Use your writing skills.

Leaving letters for a loved one when they go away is always a good way to remind them of your existence.

Make things steamy by making some of those letters X-rated.

Say things you might not say to their face, be explicit and risque, detail exactly what you like them doing and what you'll do to them on return.

Stuck for inspiration? Look for famous erotic poetry (John Donne's is wickedly good, and Everyman have a great edition of collected poems) and quote liberally. Remember to cite your sources, though, or your partner will think you've suddenly become the Shakespeare of sex.

2. Experiment visually.

The problem with sexy photos is that, time and time again, women send them to people who don't deserve or shouldn't possess them.

If you really do think your partner is to be trusted, send away - but always delete afterwards, and don't let your face be seen.

By far the best product ever invented for foreign-based partners was the webcam.

Now is the time to invest in one, and in some lingerie if you're that kind of girl. Hiding things, taking them off or putting them on seductively, is all part of the performance.

Schedule a private date, where either one or both of you is naked, and pleasure yourselves simultaneously.

3. Be unexpected (but play fair).

The key to this trick is getting the time zone right.

Making your partner's toes curl with a quick sexy text is not a new trick, but sending one overseas where they have no chance to satisfy their urges is a unique kind of wickedness.

Drop them a line in the middle of their day, or perhaps closer to bed, letting them know something you're doing, what you'd like them to do - anything that might turn them on.

Don't interrupt them while they're doing important things, though, or you might incur their highly aroused wrath.

Also, time zones - no, really, check them again. There's nothing like a sexy text at 3am to temporarily cool the ardour between couples.

4. Don't get paranoid that they're getting their pleasures somewhere else.

This is more of a relationship problem than a sexual one, but don't get wildly over-ambitious in your sexy texts/videos/emails out of fear that you need to 'keep them interested' or they'll stray.

If you're being sexy from paranoia rather than out of a genuine enjoyment of it and the connection, it'll show, and be strained and odd. Just relax - and be comfortable with what you're doing.

Allow them to suggest things, too - but don't do anything you've always disliked just because they're overseas and lonely!

5. Try new things which fit the circumstances.

Look for sex toys which can be used so that your partner will enjoy the sight, even if they can't join in.

Also, if there's anything which is simply inconvenient when you're together - coming to bed with a wet T-shirt on, or any such trick - you can try it on your own, and send them the evidence. They won't get dripped on, and you can clean up quickly.

Share intimate material which allows you to be connected - watch XXX films at the same time in different countries, email him erotic cartoons, ask for long-distance advice about underwear purchases.

It may not be the same as having them physically there pleasuring you, and there's only so much sex toys can replace the feel of skin, but long-distance lovers don't have to feel unsatisfied.

Lady Friday's Tips For A Frisky Festive Season

Rescu Freelance — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 1:01:53 GMT

It's nearly Christmastime - and then it'll be 2012! Have you had a happy, sexy 2011?

However, that means parties, and late nights, and family squabbles, and lots of food. The end of the year is often one of the lowest ebbs for sexual activity, as women get busier and more stressed.

Here are RESCU's tips for keeping the festive season just as sexy as the rest of the year.

Chill out.

Sex isn't going to happen unless you take a deep breath and let the stress of the season evaporate.

Don't think of the bedroom as a chore. Make it a place of refuge from the madness of tinsel, carols and Hannukah nights.

If anything, slow things down - include touching, a lot of foreplay, or bathe together.

That way your body can recharge and enjoy the experience, rather than being tense and frazzled.

Make time for the bedroom.

The toughest element of any modern woman's life is often time.

The holidays is no exception, here - and even if you aren't working, the lazy days of summer can be rapidly filled with social engagements and other stresses.

The key here is to actively make time for sex - not just 'letting it happen'.

This might seem unromantic, and it doesn't require a Blackberry appointment, but it still has to be a conscious decision. Otherwise you might let things get on top of you (and not in the good way).

The time commitment will be rewarded in spades.

And if you're just too tired, despite your best efforts, talk to your partner, be honest, and forgive yourself - we all over-exert sometimes.

Indulge in a little pampering.

Even if it's just a small thing like a bath or a new perfume, Christmas can be a good time to reawaken a sensual side of yourself.

For one thing, lots of lovely things are on sale; and for another, you're encouraged to be at your prettiest.

However, feeling sexy might be an effort after a long year - so make sure you do whatever you need to reinvigorate your hormones and your libido.

A new sex toy for Christmas might be just the ticket.

Remember affection.

If you're in a relationship, now - in the glow of the holiday lights - might be a good time to reinstate the common-or-garden affections that often get lost in day-to-day things.

Kissing, bum-grabbing, stroking hair - it's been shown that physical affection between couples is one of the most important underpinnings of a healthy sexual relationship.

It shows that you're aware of, and love, each other's bodies, and awakens you to their possibilities.

So next time your partner wanders past, pull them in for a full-body squeeze, drink in their pheromones, and enjoy the high.

Give a little.

And we don't mean those awful bell-encrusted teddies from Victoria's Secret.

If anything, the holiday season is a time for generosity - so make it your resolution to give as good as you get in the bedroom.

Got any outstanding sexual favours? Cash them in.

And give for the pleasure of giving, not just receiving- oral sex, massages and other generous activities don't have to be reciprocal to be fun for both parties.

It may not be the right time for a novel new move - stress can mean that sticking temporarily to tradition in the bedroom is often the go-to - but enjoy one another.

Have a happy, healthy Christmas and a sensually charged New Year!
