Learn about your own three Ps of pleasure\u2014pressure, pace and place\u2014and don\u2019t be too shy to guide your partner\u2019s hands or be explicit in letting them know how they can change up any one of those elements.<\/p>\n<h2>2.Lacking Confidence<\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019ve all got our own hang-up when it comes to sexual self-esteem\u00a0or our own body image, but vocalizing them to your partner \u2013especially when you\u2019re trying to feel sexy \u2013 empowers the issue to distract yourself from how desirable you actually are to them. Generally speaking, your partner would not be in bed with you unless they found you irresistibly sexy as you are, so own that and enjoy yourself!<\/p>\n<h2>3.Not Letting Yourself Go<\/h2>\n<p>We can\u2019t always help being distracted during sex, whether stressing about a project we\u2019re working on at the office or wishing our dog would stop scratching at the bedroom door, but truly enjoying the sex your having means, well, focusing on the sex you\u2019re having.<\/p>\n<p>It can seem like a cruel practice in futility to try and turn your brain \u2018off\u2019 just by thinking it \u2018turn off brain!\u2019 so try this instead: think about each touch and sensation you\u2019re feeling on your body and narrate them to yourself. Think \u2018she just gave me shivers up my spine when she kissed my jaw\u2019 or \u2018I love the way hands are cupping my body.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2>4.Giving the Silent Treatment<\/h2>\n<p>While loudly faking an orgasm can be reminiscent of particularly poorly acted porn, staying silent during sex could be equally as uninspiring.<\/p>\n<p>Your light moans, groans and verbalized encouragement show your partner when what they\u2019re doing is something you like, and your pleasure and enjoyment shouldn\u2019t be something you keep from your partner. (This goes for the chronically-silent gentlemen as well)!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>If you\u2019re expecting to find particular a blow job technique\u00a0or sex positions\u00a0in this article, we\u2019re sorry; all of those small details are completely based on <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/2017\/03\/06\/mistakes-we-all-make-in-bed-and-how-to-avoid-them\/\" title=\"Mistakes We All Make in Bed (And How to Avoid Them)\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":423,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[14],"tags":[15],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=422"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":424,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422\/revisions\/424"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.realbritishsex.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
