7 Things That Make Women Boring Lovers

Are you worried that you are a boring lover? Then answer this: how would someone describe sex with you?

Nice. Okay. Pleasant. Plain.

or

Hot. Sexy. Unbelievable. Amazing.

We all want to be the latter - the irresistible sex vixen men remember and fantasize about long after the sexual encounter or relationship is over. But many us are actually the former - the conservative, inhibited, self-conscious woman who frets herself into the "boring lover" category, never to get the call the next day or the satisfaction of driving him wild.

The thing is that many women who are boring in bed do not lack sexiness or sex drive, rather they let their inhibitions and insecurities dictate the experience instead of their fantasies and pleasure.

We found seven common things that make women boring lovers. See if any of these are holding you back from sex vixen status.

You never initiate. It isn't the 1950s. You do not have to wait for him to initiate sex all the time. If you don't ever make the first move, it makes for a boring sex experience for him. Why? It puts a lot of pressure on him to get things started all the time, nevermind that he is the only one that has to face rejection. Plus, making the first move means that you can have sex when YOU want to, so you are not always reacting to his sexual arousal.

You worry too much. If your sexual experiences are fraught with worry - worry about the noise, the timing, the way you look, whether or not you shaved, etc. - then it's going to lead to pretty boring sex. Worrying and over-thinking are the antithesis to passion and spontaneity. Sure, it sucks to be late for a bikini wax in the heat of the moment, but, chances are, if it is that hot he is not going to notice. Let go of your worries and be in the moment. Your worries will be there, and easier to deal with, after you have an awesome orgasm.

You like routine. Routine sex = boring sex, sooner or later. It is easy to get into a rut in a relationship once you know what each other likes. It is also easy to rely on certain acts and positions that you are comfortable in, but it can be surprisingly pleasurable to go outside of your comfort zone a little bit. I'm not suggesting building a sex dungeon or anything, just trying a new position, or revisiting handjobs or blowjobs or something that you don't feel like you mastered. Have fun and mix up the A to B to C path to intercourse.

You don't get into it. Again, we are past the days when women were expected to "lie back and think of England." Women didn't start the sexual revolution so you could lie there like a dead fish or fake orgasms. If you don't enjoy sex with a partner, then spend some time getting in touch with your pleasure on your own. If you have a partner who doesn't get you off, you need to start expecting that he does, and communicate with him how to get you off. If you are just holding back your wild sex kitten - how come? Let her roar, or purr, or whatever other adorable sound she makes when she is enjoying great sex.

You don't nurture your fantasies. The brain is the most important sex organ, and you need to use it or it gets weaker. We all have fantasies, but if the last one you can remember involved a locker room scene with that football player in high school, then you need to nurture your fantasy life. The more you think about sex creatively, the more you will crave hot sex in your real life. Boring sex can be easily avoided with a little creative thinking.

You moan like a metronome. If the sex you are having is so monotonous that you can moan in perfect time, then it probably is not very moan-worthy at all. Don't do the porn-style fake moan. He may be dumb enough to buy it, but don't count on it. Besides, sex is about pleasure, not sounding like a broken record. Instead, close your eyes, breath deeply, and let the waves of pleasure elicit natural oh's and ah's.

You don't communicate. The ideal partner is not going to "unlock" the mysteries of your body and deliver amazing orgasms. You have to TELL HIM how you get off. Most guys want you to orgasm (if he doesn't, LEAVE HIM), but you play an important role in it. It is a pretty boring sexual experience if just he gets off, he might as well masturbate. So tell him or show him what you like.

To avoid being a boring lover, the real trick is to let go of your insecurities and be open to try new things. Now you know what not to do in order to avoid boring sex - let your inner sex goddess out!
