Role play ideas for couples

Spice up your relationship

Summary:  If your marriage is becoming stale and you no longer feel excited in the company of your lover, try some role playing.  It might turn out to be the best thing that you ever did for yourself.

No, I am not suggesting that you start to hire call girls (as former New York Governor Elliott Spitzer did by paying Ashley Alexandra Dupré or Kristen) or bring another person in the relationship (as former New Jersey Gov. Jim McGreevey and his ex-wife Dina Matos McGreevey did by having threesomes with an aide Teddy Pedersen) or by having prostitutes come and roleplay with you (as Charlee Sheen did by having prostitutes dress up as cheerleaders while he pretended to be a movie director). While some of these actions are illegal, others are unethical, and open relationships and swinging is not for all couples.

So what works?

My discussions with hundreds of people who have written to me over the years have shown that the problems in a relationship arise when:

From the advice that I have given to many couples, they have found that role play is a great way to put fun into physical intimacy. Costumes are extremely cheap and you can always improvise.  Plus, as you will watch in this video amazing things happen when you put on a costume.

The other technique that seems to work for a lot of couples is putting up a show. We all have a trace of exhibitionism in us, but you don't need a third person to do that. Use a video camera and connect it to your bedroom television and you will realize that it is safe and so much more fun to watch yourself on TV.  The tapes can then be used during foreplay in the future.
