You've just managed to lure a lover into your naughty nest, things are hotting up, and you're getting ready for a long, sweaty night ahead.
But suddenly, disaster strikes. You put on your favourite CD for getting down and dirty and your partner freezes up. Apparently “Barbie Girl” by Aqua just doesn’t do it for her...
Killing the mood right before or, even worse, halfway through some passionate lovemaking is one of the worst, most awkward experiences you’ll ever have.
Here are 5 big no-nos:
1. Put. The phone. Down.
There are few things that bring on the proverbial cold water more than the beast with two backs being interrupted by a shrill ringtone or a Whatsapp message from Mom. Put your phone away and put it on silent. You don’t need to check your tweets right now.
2. Bye-bye pet
We’re sure Fodo is your best friend, but do you really want his furry little body all over the bed while you're settling into a session of serious petting with your lover? Put the dog in the lounge. Believe us: it's better for all three of you.
3. Watch your tongue
Kissing is supposed to be smooth and sensual, like you’re giving a massage. It’s not supposed to be like attaching a washing machine to your face and suffering through a particularly vigorous spin cycle. Take it easy, Tiger.
4. Stay clean
If you want to get dirty, you've got to get clean first. Going to bed smelling like the Mexican food you had for lunch mixed with toxic armpits should, quite frankly, be illegal. Take a few minutes to spruce yourself up before you hop into bed.
5. Pace yourself
A surefire way to ruin your chances is to head straight for the traditionally censored areas. Sex is a bit like exercise: you have to warm up and ease yourself into it. Foreplay isn’t overrated.
