"Sometimes I need a little extra somethin' somethin' to get in the mood. So I do all the things that feel like they're going to lead to sex — dim the lights, light candles, play romantic music, put on lingerie. If I'm feeling adventurous, I may even take out a sex toy or say I want to try a new game for some added fun." —T.O. and B.L., Brooklyn, NY; married 3 months
"Rather than jumping right into sex, sometimes I'll force the two of us to slow things down. We'll spend a lot of time making out like teenagers, then go on to foreplay before finally moving to sex. It builds up a lot of anticipation and obviously draws things out, so it feels really sexy." —K.W. and T.W., Queens, NY; married 3 years
"If there's one shopping weakness I have, it's for high heels. Which is completely impractical since I barely wear them anymore. Still, I have them, so I make use of them. I'll slip on a pair shortly before starting something with my husband and tell him I want to keep them on. It ends up being the only thing that I'm still wearing. He thinks it's kind of funny, but whatever — I think it's hot." —E.L. and J.L., Austin, TX; married 5 years
"Sometimes I'll wake my husband up by giving him oral. I'm a big fan of morning sex as a great way to start the day, and this way we both get steamy things to fantasize about while we're sitting in interminable meetings later." —J.S. and C.G., Queens, NY; married 3 years
"It may sound boring, but after chasing around our toddler all day I don't usually have the energy for a lot of sexy games. So if I feel like we've hit a slump, I just do it. Even if I'm not in the mood when I start, that usually changes after just a few minutes. Sometimes you just have to get the juices flowing." —E.L. and J.L., Austin, TX; married 5 years
"If my husband and I are getting ready to go out but I'm in the mood for a little action later, then I make sure to get dressed last and spend the entire time getting ready wearing just a sexy bra and panties. He almost always wants to do something right away, but I usually shoo him off. That way when we get home later, we're both practically bursting with anticipation." —S.L and D.L., New York, NY; married 1 year
"Never underestimate the power of a good pillow. Whenever I'm getting bored with missionary, or just not getting off from it, I'll put a pillow under my hips. Entirely new sensations for both of us — especially if I also squeeze my legs a little tighter — that keeps things interesting while we're going at it." —B.A. and C.B., Syracuse, NY; married 2 years
"After long work days, dinner, clean up, kids' baths, and bedtime stories, usually there's just enough time to plop into bed and watch some mind-numbing TV. So we started making out only during the commercials. As soon as the show comes back on, you have to hit pause on the makeout session. It can be frustratingly hot — and sometimes just plain funny — but either way it's great. And it's almost guaranteed to lead somewhere…whenever
"Clear the schedule, stock up on favorite foods, and spend the entire day at home. My husband and I do this from time to time, and when we do there are no clothes allowed. It pretty much guarantees we'll bang at least three times." —J.S. and C.G., Queens, NY; married 3 years
