50 Ways to Be Romantic on the Cheap

Ways to Be Romantic on the Cheap

Often my articles on family are about spending time with your kids, but today we’ll talk about another important aspect of families: couples. If you’ve got a significant other, I highly recommend you keep the spark of your relationship alive and find ways to show you appreciate each other, every week and every day, if possible.

Look for little, inexpensive ways to be romantic, and it will pay off for your relationship in innumerable ways.

Why inexpensive? Well, you could rent a limo and take your love to a snooty French restaurant, or whisk him or her off to a trip to the snow-capped Alps, or rent a stadium and have the Three Tenors sing love songs for you while the New York Philharmonic plays in the background. I don’t know about you, but I can’t afford to do that kind of stuff more than a few times a month. The rest of the time, I have to resort to cheapskate.

Before we get into the list, let’s look at a few notes on how to use the list:

Weekly dates. I recommend you have a date at least once a week with your partner. It doesn’t have to be an expensive one, but at least find some way to spend a couple hours time together. If you’ve got kids, like I do, find a babysitter.

Communicate. Romantic gestures don’t take the place of real communication. Take time to talk about your goals, your dreams, your plans for the future, your current lives, things you’re happy about, things you love about the other person, things you’d like to work on, things you’re grateful for.

Inspiration. This list contains a lot of obvious stuff — you could probably come up with twice as many good ideas yourself. But the list doesn’t aim for originality — it aims to be an inspiration. Pick and choose some good ideas, or use it to spark some of your own. Sometimes we just need a little reminder.

Forget Valentines. Boycott Valentine’s Day, as it makes people think they should be romantic on special occasions. Instead, pick one of these ideas and do it any day of the week — no need for a special occasion.

OK, enough talk. Let’s look at some ways to be romantic without breaking your budget (note to my mom: don’t read this, as there are a couple of sexy-time things later on):

Write a poem.
Cook a romantic dinner.
Give a full-body massage.
Pack a sunset picnic.
Pick wildflowers on the way home.
Burn a CD with love songs.
Give dark chocolates.
Read poetry together.
Prepare strawberries with fondue chocolate.
Snuggle together on a rainy day.
Leave little love notes everywhere.
Send a love email every day.
Take a moonlit walk on the beach.
Snuggle together while watching romantic movies (Casablanca, Audrey Hepburn are my favs).
Get good wine, watch shooting stars.
Take a bath together (use bubbles!).
Bring home good coffee or a decadent sweet.
Take a walk down memory lane — visit some of the special places from your early days of dating.
Make warm chocolate cake for dessert.
Make a scrapbook with photos, mementos, and little notes from you lives together.
Kiss in the rain.
Ride a ferris wheel.
Sneak away from a party and make out.
Bring home great take-out, and light some candles.
Fix something or fix up the house just to make your partner happy.
Slow dance to romantic music.
Take a nap together.
Kiss slowly, touching his or her back and neck and nape — slowly.
Make a list of everything you love about him or her.
Write a love letter.
Clip or email things that make you think of him or her, every day.
Go to a movie, ignore the movie, and make out like teen-agers.
Groom yourself, and try to look good for your partner.
Take some quiet time and talk about your day.
Write little notes, one for each way he or she drives you crazy.
Feed each other grapes.
Recreate your partner’s favorite romantic movie scene.
Pretend you’re going on a first date — show up at the door with flowers, all dressed up, with your car washed and cleaned, looking spiffy. Recreate the first time.
Create a little box with a bunch of your partner’s favorite things inside.
Paint each other with flavored body paint. Be creative!
Try some sexy role-playing. Get dressed up, be daring, have fun.
Give a little token to your partner to wear, and say it’s to remind him or her all day that you love them.
Sing a favorite song to him or her. Only do this if you can sing fairly well.
Have dinner on the roof, with some candles. This doesn’t work if your roof slopes sharply.
Hold hands, and walk somewhere with lots of pretty lights.
Say I love you. In a different way, every day.
Blindfold your partner. Use a feather. Slowly.
Declare your love, very publicly.
Fruit or berries and freshly made whipped cream.
Play Sade. Do what comes naturally. Slowly.

5 Fifty Shades Sex Positions To Set Your Climax Free

Flirtconnect Hookup tips , Tips

A lot of the sex scenes from Fifty Shades Freed elicit a resounding "hell no" from me. Sorry, but I just don't find sex in a meadow erotic. Ticks, anyone?! But a select few are actually worth a shot if you're feeling brave, or have run out of Netflix shows to binge. Below, five BDSM-ish positions that will probably make your inner goddess do a backflip or something.

1. Chain of Fools.

Try this bondage position Christian and Ana get busy with on their honeymoon. You'll need two sets of handcuffs and the ability to check your dignity at the door because it's highly possible you will feel like a tied up Thanksgiving turkey. Affix a pair of handcuffs to each ankle, then cuff your left ankle to your left hand, and your right ankle to your right hand. You should be curled up like a ball, at the whim of your partner who is hopefully less vindictive than Christian. You can lean back and have them enter from a kneeling position in front of you, or experiment with how it feels on your side. Kinky fuckery, indeed.

2. Nip Slip.

In the world of Fifty Shades, Ana gets off from even the slightest nipple graze. (Oh, to be wealthy and fictional). And while nipple-only orgasms might sound impossible, they're actually A Thing. To try your luck, have your partner assume a seated position. Straddle them topless, getting your breasts level with their mouth. They can lick, suck, touch, and squeeze to your liking. If this doesn't work (sorry!), hop on top of their peen and go for an orgasm the old-fashioned way.

3. Plug Playtime.

It was really only a matter of time before E.L. James ventured into Butt Stuff™. To try out a butt plug for yourself, choose a body safe option with a flared base. Assume the doggy-style position and have your partner insert the toy slowly. If it's feeling good, they can penetrate you vaginally from this position, reaching a hand around to touch your clit, too. This is probably the only time it's a good idea to take a page out of Ana and Christian's book: start small and use lots of lube.

4. Wand Magic.

In the book, Christian uses a wand-style vibrator on Ana to "punish" her, basically denying her an orgasm to the point of torture. IRL, wand vibrators are the shit and can be used for pleasure, not pain. Here's how: do this one with a partner who actually wants you to orgasm. If you want to give up some control, try tying your hands behind your back or over your head. Lean up against a surface and let your partner press the vibrator against your vag. Tell them how much pressure to use and make lots of eye contact. No one stops or gets untied until you finish.

5. The Couch Crouch.

Of all the Freed sex scenes, this might be the hottest. Using whatever type of restraints you may have around (in the book, Christian uses bathrobe ties), have your partner secure your knees to both arms of a couch, so your legs are completely open. Feel free to gently massage your clitoris while your partner watches. When you're sufficiently warmed up, command your partner to go down on you until you say when. You're basically a queen on a couch throne.

15 Body Language Signs That Means He's Into You

Flirtconnect Ladies , Tips

Like women, men don't always say exactly what they're feeling precisely when they feel it. But guys don't have to say much to show you what they're thinking.
That's because unconscious body language signals can be extremely telling, says Patti Wood, a body language expert with more than 30 years of experience.

So, in the early stages of a new relationship (like when you first meet an online date), look out for the following signs to get a sense of what he's thinking.

1. His pupils are huge.

Either you're in a super-dark place, or this subtle signal means he's into you. "Dilation is a brain response that occurs when you like and are attracted to something," Wood says.

2. His eyebrows are raised.

People tend to use this subconscious expression to help open their eyes when they like what they see. If he raises his brows ever so slightly while you're talking, it means he's interested in whatever you're saying.

3. He shows you his front teeth.

"Guys stop smiling like this around the age of 5 — unless they're really happy," Wood says. He might not show off a toothy grin while casually flirting, but on a really awesome date when he's having loads of fun? Look for teeth: "When he feels really happy, he's not covering that up," Wood says.

4. He smiles above the mouth.

Real smiles extend well beyond the mouth: They lift the forehead and give you slightly squinty eyes. If his smile involves his whole face, it means you're genuinely affecting him in a good way.

5. He licks his lips in a cute (not creepy) way.

When you're attracted to someone, your mouth produces extra saliva, Wood says. In response, he might quickly lick his lips or press them together. (Slower = creepster.

6. He locks eyes with your face — not your eyes.

You might think that a guy who is totally enamoured by you will find it hard to peel his eyes away. But now that everyone is used to being glued to their phones, nonstop eye contact can make people feel uncomfortable. So, new rule: If he spends about 80 per cent of your interaction looking from your eyes to your nose and lips, he's into you, Wood says.

7. He takes a deep breath when he sees you.

Yes, men do require oxygen. But when he subconsciously takes a deep breath — he'll pull in his stomach and puff out his chest — it's a subconscious way to make his upper body look broader and his waist looks smaller, two qualities that make him look more fit and (from an evolutionary perspective) more desirable, Wood says. In other words, he's into you and he's trying to attract you.

8. He leans toward you when you talk.

In a noisy bar, this sign might not hold much weight. But when he can physically hear you perfectly well and leans in anyway, it means he's interested in what you have to say — and you, in general.

9. He puts his hands on his hips with his elbows out to the sides.

Because this stance takes up more space than standing with your arms against your sides, Wood says this is a male power signal that guys use to show physical superiority over other guys. It means he's seeking attention. And if he does it while he's angled toward you? He's seeking it from you.

10. He touches your knee ("Soft pants!") or tucks your hair behind your ear.

When he initiates physical contact under the guise of another reason, it's a test to see how you respond to his touch, Wood says. Because touch is a tool he uses to test your limits, it could mean he's only interested in sex, Wood says. If he really likes you, though, he might pull back extra-slowly and smile sweetly as he does it, which means he wants to take the time to get closer to you.

11. He sits with his legs spread.

Because this position exposes his man parts, which are full of sensitive nerve endings, it's a vulnerable position that could mean he's willing to put himself out there (literally and emotionally) to get to know you.

12. He angles his pelvis toward you.

Because the pelvis is overtly sexual, Wood says, it often signals sexual interest — or lack thereof. If he angles his hips away from you, it's probably the latter.

13. He points his toes toward you.

Because the feet are involved in the fight-or-flight response that kicks in when you're in danger, they're largely controlled by the unconscious mind — and can be very telling in social interactions. "The feet tend to point where the heart wants to go," Wood says. Of course, timing is super important in interpreting the feet: If you're talking to a guy who seems interested, you touch his arm, and then see his feet angle away from you, the context says he's no longer interested.

14. He crosses his legs.

If he crosses them in a way that turns his torso and upper body away from you, he might be disinterested. But if he crosses his legs away and turns the rest of his body toward you, it could just mean that he's shy, depending on the guy.

15. He sort of shuffles toward you while you're talking.

He obviously wants to get closer to you.

9 Signs He's Not a Cheater

Flirtconnect Hook-ups , Hookup tips

Being cheated on is the worst. You feel rejected but also pissed. You don't know who you can trust. Well, scientific studies have narrowed down some traits that are statistically more common in guys who cheat, so here are some signs (not confirmation, obviously) that your guy will never stray.

1. You bring home the same amount of money.

A recent study from the American Sociological review showed that partners were less likely to cheat if they were in the same (or similar) income brackets. Men were more likely to cheat if they made a lot more money than their partner, and they were most likely to cheat if they made a lot less. So if you two have similar paychecks, you've got statistics on your side.

2. He's from the Midwest.

According to this poll, Midwesterners are just too well-mannered to cheat on their partners.

3. His friends are also faithful.

People are more likely to cheat if their friends are also cheaters, according to M. Gary Newman, author of The Truth About Cheating. If his friends are trustworthy, it's likely he's trustworthy too.

4. He feels loved and trusted.

According to a study conducted by Newman, most men don't cheat because they're not satisfied sexually. They cheat because they're seeking emotional satisfaction.

5. He's an extrovert.

Extroverts are less likely to go along with the influence of others. Research shows that introverts are actually more likely to cheat because they're more likely to agree to someone propositioning them. So even if he's always out there meeting new people, you actually might be safer.

6. He just seems like the kind of guy who wouldn't cheat.

According to a real study that people spent time on, researchers found that you can trust your gut when it comes to guys who look like they'd cheat. If your gut is telling you "no," then it's a good idea to listen to that gut.

7. He's really into Pantera.

Yeah, according to this survey conducted by the Mirror (so, questionable), heavy metal listeners are apparently the least likely to cheat.

8. He comes from a big family.

A survey from adult meet-up site Seeking Arrangements shows that cheaters are usually only children. Ask if he has a sister.

9. He has a hard time getting it up.

A sad study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior showed that men who are easily aroused are more likely to cheat, so I guess mark one in the "pros" column for whiskey dick.

I Can Never Recommend My Ex To A Friend — Timaya’s Ex, Actress Empress Njama

Flirtconnect Ladies , Men

Controversial, cannot aptly describe top Nollywood actress, Empress Njamah. From Timaya to her rumoured marriage and some other unsavoury things which have been written about her, she has been seemingly trailed by one controversy or the other.

Despite all these distractions, Empress is one hell of a star. And she’s been around for a while. The dark-skinned, starry-eyed, all-feminine bomb exploded unto the scene in 1995 and since then has been able to hold her head high in the industry. Of course, whatever she lacks, she can always dig deep into her veins to bring out from the genes – because acting runs in her family.

For the actress, an ex who wasn’t good for her is definitely not good for a friend, this much she revealed to Potpourri in a chat “An ex-remains an ex and true friends remain true friends and we ride into the future.

We don’t have any business with the past. Ex! If he was not good for me, why would I recommend him to my friend?” she said when asked if she could recommend an ex-boyfriend to a friend for marriage.

6 POWERFUL WAYS TO STOP MASTURBATING

Flirtconnect Hook-ups , Hookup tips

POWERFUL WAYS TO STOP MASTURBATING

If you’re horny, you have sex. If you have no partner, you masturbate. Here are six quick hacks to stop being horny when these aren’t an option at the moment.

Feeling horny is a natural body response we all know so well. All people experience it—even those people who claim they are asexual like Sheldon Cooper. We feel these sexual urges because of our biological impulse to proliferate our species. And the far simpler reason, sex is so damn good. However, sex and masturbation are not always a viable or appropriate solution whenever your sexual urges catch you off guard. So what can you do to stop being horny?

The downside of being horny all the time

Being horny and turned on is good if you’re about to get laid. Other than that it merely serves as a distraction and forces you to become sexually frustrated. People need to fight off sexual urges at times when it starts intruding in your life by:

*Putting you off your concentration at work or school.

*Stress – you can’t feel relaxed when you don’t have sex or masturbate.

*Relationship problems – constantly demanding sex from your partner puts a strain on your relationship.

*Being preoccupied with releasing your sexual tension.

*Becoming addicted to porn or masturbating.

Quick hacks to calm your urges

There are things we can do when we need to stop being horny and can’t use sex or masturbation. These five quick hacks help calm it all down.

#1 Take a shower.

The old wives’ tale goes: when in heat, take a dip. However, the effect of a cold shower against horniness varies for each individual. Some say it helps calm them down. Some say it’s “meh,” and a few believe that it’s actually counter-productive as standing wet, naked, and caressing yourself all over invites more of those urges in. Still, it’s worth a try. [Read: THE STORY OF ME, MY LANDLADY AND HER DAUGHTERS]

Efficacy rating: 50%

#2 Exercise.

Someone leaning towards Freudian psychology or even New Age philosophy would tell you that getting strong sexual urges is the effect of pent-up sexual energy that needs a release. And of course, the perfect way to release it is by way of a strenuous physical activity none other than sexual intercourse.

But instead of intercourse, divert that energy by doing other forms of exercise. So the next time you feel horny, jump into your tracksuit and do twenty laps, hit the gym, or pour it all out on the punching bag. This helps you release that tension and distract your brain from your other urges. And you’ll be too tired after anyway.

Efficacy rating: 80%

#3 Change your diet.

Just how aphrodisiacs supposedly increase your libido, certain foodstuffs do the opposite when you consume them. However, take note that these don’t work like medication that takes effect an hour later. You might need to gradually incorporate these into your diet if you feel you’re oversexed. [Read: GIRL, 15, HAD SEX WITH 25 BOYS IN HIGH SCHOOL BATHROOM]

*Carbonated drinks – drinks with more sugar than water in its formula make you dehydrated and feeling less pleasant than normal. So if you feel horny, chug a little bit of the drink that Men’s Health keeps warning you of.

*Canned foods – high levels of sodium and potassium to keep these canned foods somewhat fresh not only guarantees to make you lose your sex drive, it also makes a man’s spunk taste horrible.

*Soy and cheese – soybean products are a major source of phytoestrogen while cheese gives off a large amount of xenoestrogen. What do they do? They screw up your hormonal balance which manages your libido. So if you want to stop being horny, become a vegetarian.

*Fats and oils – good old grease may taste good, but it also floods the body with a lot of free radicals screwing up the body’s hormonal balance. Feeling horny? Treat yourself to a good double bacon cheeseburger.

*Alcohol and coffee – combine both in some sort of a speedball and you instantly get limp. Alcohol is often thought to be a form of aphrodisiac, but it actually does otherwise. It screws up your mental state and sex drive.

Efficacy rating: 89% but use at your own risk.

#4 Kill the mood with anything counter-erotic.

People, sometimes you get horny because kinky thoughts run through your mind. Just like bad sex, you can put your urges at bay by doing stuff that usually kills the mood for you when you’re about to go at it.

*Watch, read, or listen to comedy – laughter is good except in the bedroom. Watching your favourite sitcom realigns your focus away from sex.

*Or you can choose something more depressing – we’ve been depressed at some point in our life. And one thing for sure is sex is the last thing you’ll be worried about when you’re feeling blue. Watch a good drama or just be reminded of your bad breakup. The brain parts that function when you’re depressed shuts off the other parts making you horny.

*Even scary stuff – a quick jump scare scene definitely deflates your boner. Try it.

Efficacy rating: 70-80%

#5 Physical Pain.

I’m not saying you should hurt yourself, but we’re just letting you know experiencing physical pain would definitely whisk that horniness away. Unless you are a masochist, that is. It may feel silly just imagining it but if you don’t mind giving yourself a pinch or a slap *and if you’re desperate enough* give it a try.

Efficacy rating: 40%

#6 Meditation.

Feeling horny is a state of mind as much as it is a bodily function. And as Buddhism teaches, one can control desires and urges by practising mental discipline through meditation. You don’t need to practice Buddhism altogether. The basic requirement for meditation is simply a quiet and peaceful space where you empty your mind and let go of your desires.

Efficacy rating: 75%
