{So you finally met that special someone you really love and you wanna share that special moment with that someone, you should understand there are certain things you need to know about first-time sex.}

Check them out below

{{1. It’s okay to ask questions }}

Asking questions during sex ruins the moment but it’s an exception when it’s first-time sex. It’s so okay to ask questions if you are in doubt because you actually don’t know their limits.

{{2. It might be a little awkward }}

Having sex for the first time most times is usually awkward and uncomfortable.

{{3. It’s not going to be perfect }}

First time sex is mostly not perfect (forget what you read in novels or watch on TV). The good news is that you would get better with time.

{{4. Don’t be anxious ,just relax }}

Don’t expect fireworks the first time you have sex. It’s advisable you relax and enjoy the ride. You are probably going to spend eternity with your partner so why are you anxious?

{{5. Keep an open mind
}}

When you are having sex for the first time, learn to keep an open mind. Explore, communicate and enjoy the moment.

{There comes a time in a man’s life, where he would look beyond the superficial things, and long to date a woman with value and one he can build up something special with.}

When a man reaches a certain point in his life, he would seek for a mature relationship — one with values, and he knows that he can’t find this with every lady out there.

These are some signs you are dating a real woman.

{{1. She is interested in your growth as a person }}

While a girl is usually carried away by superficial things, a woman needs more than that; she’s interested in your growth financially, spiritually, career-wise and all other aspects of life. She just wants the best for her man.

{{2. She communicates }}

Girls want to be communicated to, they want to be understood, but are unwilling to make a move towards that; they tend to expect the man to just understand and communicate with them. But a woman communicates; she reaches out to you, she holds meaningful conversations, she explains her feelings and seeks to understand yours.

{{3. She makes the relationship better }}

A girl might expect you to spoil her all the time; she might want unlimited attention and affection, but she wouldn’t really put in efforts to make the relationship work. A woman has grown past all these; yes, she might want the attention and affection (all women do), but she’s also interested in building her relationship too.

{{4. She is genuine }}

A girl might live a life of pretence or even fake her feelings for you, but a woman is genuine; she is original, she lives her life without pretence and her love for you cannot be disputed.

{{5. She is honest and trustworthy }}

Girls easily pop out the lie, and conveniently too, but a woman understands the importance of truthfulness; she’s honest and truthful, and she’s a trustworthy person.

{{6. She builds success with you }}

The average girl looks for a successful man to be with, but a woman builds success with you; she recognises your goals, ambitions, passion and drive — and she helps build success with you.

{{7. She is willing to learn }}

She’s willing to learn, she’s open to communicate, she understands that there’s room for improvement, she listens and she interacts. These acts help her learn more; she isn’t stuck with what she knows – and only a woman can have these traits.

{{8. She builds her inner beauty }}

While most girls are focused on their outer beauty, a woman builds her inner beauty too. She understands that the inner beauty is way more important than the outer; she takes care of her outer beauty and then builds her character and person from within.

{{9. She handles situation better }}

A woman handles situation better; she doesn’t freak out when there is an understanding, she doesn’t put the whole blame on you either. She’s mature enough to accept her share of the blame, learn from it and look for solutions to help the relationship.

10. A woman isn’t self-centred. She cares about her man and cares about her relationship.

Dating a woman is totally different from dating a girl. Moreover, it isn’t age that makes a woman whom she is; it’s the values she has inculcated within her over a period of time that makes her mature and stand out.

{Just as you have needs you expect your man to meet, your man also has needs he expects you to meet.}

Here are 8 things your man needs from you

1. Your man wants to know you miss him when he isn’t around.This shows him you value the time spent together with him.

2. Your man wants to know you still desire him. Do all you can to show him how much you desire him by kissing him, hugging him, holding him and giving him a good time in bed.

3. Your man wants you to appreciate the little things he does to make you happy. When you appreciate him, you encourage him to do more.

4. Your man wants to know you are proud of him. You show him you are proud of him by acknowledging his accomplishments and praising his achievements.

5. Your man wants to know you are happy being with him. When you let him know you are happy being with him, you make him a happy man.

6. Your man wants to know you feel safe and secure being with him.

7. Your man wants to know if you believe in him. Telling your man you believe in him gives him an instant boost in confidence.

{Having regular sex can do wonders for your marriage. Here are reasons why every couple should have sex regularly.
}

{{1. IT BRINGS YOU AND YOUR SPOUSE CLOSER}}

One good thing having sex regularly can do is that it brings you and your spouse closer. Sex is the only thing you share with your spouse which you don’t share with anyone else.

{{2. YOU ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF A CLIMAX}}

When you climax during sex, oxytocin is released and it helps couple love and bond. So why don’t you enjoy this benefit by having sex regularly with your spouse.

{{3. IT HELPS YOUR MARRIAGE
}}

Ever wonder why couples having a poor sex life have a poor relationship? The bedroom and your relationship are inseparably connected. When you have regular sex with your spouse, your marriage will reap the benefits too.

{{4. IT’S FUN}}

Fun moments are needed in every healthy relationship and having sex can be so much fun. You can bring more fun to your bedroom by being creative in bed.

{{5. IT’S GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH}}

Having regular sex has several health benefits like helping you burn calories, increasing your heart rate and helping you sleep better.

{The woman is an influential part of the family; she has a role to play, not only as a mother but a wife as well, and how she goes about it can lead to the success or failure of the marriage.}

These are some important things every good wife should do for her husband.

{{1. BE PROUD OF HIM}}

Be proud of that man you call husband; be proud of how far he has come as a man, whom he is and what he’s working towards.

Your man will have a sense of belief when you’re a proud wife.

{{2. BE SUPPORTIVE}}

Don’t be the type of woman that freaks out when your man needs you; be the supportive wife, be the wife that encourages her man to be what he wants to be.

Don’t let him face those hard moments alone; he needs you most at those points.

{{3. SHOW APPRECIATION}}

Have a sense of gratitude; every man wants to be appreciated for his efforts. A good wife makes her husband feel appreciated.

{{4. MAKE THE HOUSE A HOME}}

Make the house a home for him; one he would find peace, happiness, love and togetherness.

{{5. FULFILL HIS SEXUAL DESIRES}}

Some women use sex a weapon against their man, but it shouldn’t be so. Sex ought to bond you and your partner together, and not be a weapon to be used against your husband.

{{6. DO THOSE LITTLE THINGS HE LIKES}}

It’s your job to know what your man likes — those little things he loves; it could be his favourite meal or something else. Make him a happy man by doing those little things that excite him.

{{7. SURPRISE HIM}}

Be the kind of woman who can spring up surprises for her man; be the kind of wife that thrills her man, and he would never forget you.

{{8. BE CARING AND LOVING}}

Be a caring wife; shower your man with love and affection, be romantic too, and give him attention — men need this too.

When you are this kind of wife to your husband, it would be easier to build a happy home with him.

{When in a relationship with a woman, there are certain dates in her life which you should never forget, except you want your relationship to go through something more catastrophic than the Second World War.}

While most men are hardly efficient in remembering or keeping tabs with dates, women always have such dates easily stored up at the back of their mind. Research has shown that women have a higher level of estrogen, and this helps them in remembering dates and events. The dates range from personal important dates in her lives to important dates that marks important milestone in the relationship/marriage.

To a woman, if you remember those important dates, you are caring and romantic; if you don’t, well…you know what happens next.

5 dates most women never forget:

{{1. Birthday }}

Of course you should never forget her birthday, there is no way on earth she would forgive you if you can’t remember one of the most important dates in her life. Men could take their birthday casual, but never a woman; she sees this date as a special day in her life, and the message you pass when you forget such a simple but yet important date is that you don’t even care.

{{2. Anniversary date }}

The anniversary date is one you should never ever forget; her wedding day is yet another symbolic moment in her life — one she’d never forget in a hurry; so, if you can’t remember a simple date as the one you got married to her, you somehow pass a message that you don’t even value the marriage. Some women even mark anniversary dates in relationships, and they hold it very important. If you care about your relationship/marriage, the anniversary date is a no go area. The day she also gets engaged is another important milestone.

{{3. The day you met }}

A lot of women also hold this dear to them if they consider you special in their lives; the day you both met, the place and time as well as other things that happened on that day — they hardly ever forget this.

{{4. Milestone }}

A milestone could be in her job, career or education; her first job, first car, a degree, promotion or any other thing which affects her progress in life; if it’s important to her then it should be important to you.

{{5. A tragedy }}

Women are good with dates; they hardly ever forget anything that happens to them, even a tragedy. The loss of a child, parent or anyone dear to them is one they never forget, or any other tragedy which took them aback is one they also never forget. If she’s been through a divorce or bad breakup, she also hardly ever forgets that.

It could be deduced that anything that makes a woman extremely happy or extremely sad are days she’d never ever forget in her life.

{We live in an era where the fear of marriage is the beginning of wisdom. You need not fear. There are lots of outstanding benefits from getting married. As long as it’s a happy marriage, there is so much to gain from it. Can you remember the saying ‘’he that finds a wife finds a good thing’’, it’s so true. Read on to find out the 5 advantages of getting married.}

{{1. You live a longer life }}

Lots and lots of studies have proved that the chances of married couples dying are far lesser than that of unmarried couples. When you have a happy family, you tend to care of yourself better, avoid unnecessary risks and hence live longer. As long as it’s a happy home, the chances of you living longer are high.

{{2. You become less addicted to alcohol }}

Married couples have less addiction to alcohol than the unmarried ones. It’s common to see a guy cut down on the amount of alcohol he consumes after he gets married. He has more responsibilities now and he knows alcohol isn’t everything any longer. A married couple believe life has more to offer so why waste it on so much alcohol?

{{3. Improved quality of life }}

Do you remember the saying that two heads are better than one(though my friend says it’s two good heads not just two heads)? A married couple always have an improved life because the two of them pull resources together to have a better life. So it’s easier for a married couple to get a home in a nice neighbourhood. The unmarried ones have to do it on their own.

{{4. Easier to raise kids }}

In every responsible marriage, both the father and mother share responsibilities in taking care of the kids. It’s easier for married couples to provide a home that is safe and happy to live in than single parents.

{{5. Better health }}

Ever wondered why your friend smiles a lot after getting married? Having good sex with a partner that you now trust better brings a sense of happiness which in turn promotes good health. Studies have also shown that married couples enjoy better physical and mental health than those not married.

So for the single ones, it’s time to propose to that woman that makes you smile and hit the altar with her. Toast to all the weddings coming soon.

{No one knows the good, the bad and the ugly side of marriage like our mothers. A friend sent these words of wisdom to me and I felt I should share it with you. Ensure you read and share with your friends.}

1. The wife that wins all arguments with her husband is not wise. The home is not a law court.

2. The wife that uses sex as a weapon in the home – placing embargo, going to bed in jeans shorts and trousers – lacks wisdom.

3. The wife that uses the modern trends and laws of “human rights” to insult or ridicule her husband simply makes a fool of herself.

4. A woman who makes her home devoid of peace through bickering, nagging and quarrels needs help. A man should be eager to run away from the office to be at home, for that should be the safest and closest place on earth for him.

5. Modern day equality in marriage does not mean competition, it simply means partnership. Taking advantage of such equality to turn around and become the defacto head of the home and oppress the man is tantamount to playing with fire. If you destroy your home, soon you would be the boss of an empty home.

6. A wise wife makes the man feel so good that he assumes that he is the head of the home. Once he gets that feeling, the woman gently wields her power and the head actually turns to wherever the neck wants without protest.

7. A wife that does not pull herself away from friend’s influence and advice and even from the control of her mother and father will have herself to blame.

8. When a man is looking for a wife, he bypasses women of different shapes and sizes to choose a wife but soon after childbirth, many women hide under the excuse of childbirth to let go of themselves. Many stop bothering about their looks, shape, dressing etc. Within 5 years of marriage, people start wondering if the wife is the man’s aunt even though she is 7 years younger. Her defence is that if he truly loves her, he should love her the way she is but when looking for a wife he saw people like the present YOU, ignored them and settled for the former YOU. Today you go to bed smelling of onions…you go to bed wearing grandmothers’ clothes. Why are you playing with your marriage? Love is not about looks, we know but looks enhances love and marriage. There is a difference between someone disfiguring herself and the person being disfigured by an accident. Please don’t be complacent. As hard as it may be, work on looking as you were when he first saw you and began the chase.

9. If every night you are tired, sleepy, sore, down with headache or fever, “not in the mood”, you are a joker, a serious comedian.

10. If your children suddenly become more important to you than your husband, you need prayers.

11. If you assume that as the woman, only you need to be pampered and fussed over while the man is a stone that has no emotions, you need to be pitied.

12. A woman that has the mind of a wife does not excite her husband. Wives are usually complacent and presumptuous. A wife must strive to have the mind of a girlfriend. A girlfriend is always nicer, sweeter, more loving and always thinking of ways to wow her sweetheart. A girlfriend does not try to win all arguments, does not call the man a “useless man”, is not careless about her looks or dressing, always smiles and laughs with the man, sends the man sweet messages and calls etc. Are you your husband’s girlfriend in words and in deeds?

Only a loving mother can give these wonderful words of wisdom. Hope you enjoyed it?

{One would think that as a couple grows older, their sex drive will go lower.}

But a study by researchers from Illinois University found that it was a myth that most older people give up on sex.

Their study found that 91 percent of men and 81 percent of women remain sexually active in their 60s.

According to Professor Liza Berdychevsky, one of the researchers behind the study, “Although some older adults reported abstaining from sexual activity due to health conditions or loss of interest, others refused to renounce activity.

“Ageist stereotypes that portray seniors as asexual were not going to become excuses to give up on life — or sex.” He said.

So, if you are scared of turning 50, you need not be, there’s still good sex for you at 50.
