4 Unexpected Ways to Spice Up Your Valentine's Night

4 Unexpected Ways to Spice Up Your Valentine's Night

Valentine's Day is around the corner, and while a candlelit dinner is always a classic, it might be time to spice things up with something a little more out of the ordinary; let's swap predictability for passion!

If you're looking for new ways to have fun and get the juices flowing with your partner, this is the perfect opportunity to explore some unexpected, sultry activities. Let's forget the traditional clichés and try something fresh this February. From erotic storytelling to sensory play and even exploring Hot Octopuss toys, here are four exciting ways to turn up the heat and have an unforgettable Valentine's Day. 

 

Write an erotic story you have been fantasising about

The power of words is undeniable when it comes to sex and intimacy, but for someone, it may come a lot easier when written down rather than spoken aloud. 

Before you dive into the writing, take a moment to decide on a theme or setting. Do you want it to be a forbidden office romance? A wild night in a luxurious hotel room? A slow-building seduction that takes place over a day or a night? Explore either of the two writing options below. 

Option one:

Take some time with your partner to create two separate erotic stories. It can be a fantasy you've always thought about or an entirely new scenario. The key is to be playful and let your imagination run wild. Once the story is written, read it to each other—sensually, slowly, and deliberately. If you're feeling adventurous, act out the story together as it unfolds. 

Option two:

Begin by writing a paragraph each, alternating back and forth. The first person starts by setting the scene. Then, the second person picks up the narrative, adding to the tension or describing the next step in the seduction. Keep writing back and forth and see where this takes you.

 

Set up a sensory station in your bedroom.

Turn your bedroom into an immersive sensory playground with items that excite the body and mind. Start by gathering household objects like whipped cream, rose petals, ice cubes, feathers, or even some BDSM gear like the ones from Hot Octopuss to add that extra touch of the unknown. 

When you are both ready, place a blindfold on the person receiving the sensory play; this will heighten their senses and leave their minds guessing about what is being introduced to their skin. Slowly introduce each object with care and attention, and be mindful of how certain temperatures or sensations might feel in some areas of the body. The whipped cream might feel cool and creamy against their body, while a feather's soft tickle sends shivers of pleasure. 

Take turns using these objects, and remember to check in with your partner regularly and always ask them what they like or don't like and what they want more or less of.

 

Spend an entire evening naked.

Why rush straight into sex when you can build excitement and intimacy throughout the evening? 

Spend the night completely naked, avoid falling into the trap of getting to the "end goal" too quickly, and enjoy each other in your birthday suits. You could start the evening by watching a romantic or steamy movie under some sheets with your favourite food, play games that make you laugh, dance, talk about your wildest fantasies, or even reminisce about your favourite moments together. When the time feels right, you could then move into the bath or take a shower together, exploring each other's bodies without rushing to sex.

By avoiding the rush and focusing on just being together (but naked), you'll find that anticipation builds throughout the evening. Let the sensations of being close to one another without immediately jumping into sex become a playful game of teasing and also an appreciation for each other's bodies. It's about spending quality time together, letting the energy between you build and deepen, leading to a more intense and satisfying experience when the night finally ends in sex, or not, whatever feels right on the night.
