The feeling of your body tingling and your blood pumping is exhilarating. Let’s look at some of the things to make you horny together.
We all want to feel maximum pleasure when we’re with our partner. It doesn’t matter if you’re with a one-night stand or your significant other of five years. Horny is horny, and we all love it. Being horny not only leads to some jaw-dropping sex, but you also learn what turns you on and what turns your partner on. You know, for future reference. So, what is it that makes you horny?
Things to make you horny
So, if you want to go from watching TV to all over each other, you need to put away the cell phones and focus on getting horny. If you’re trying to figure out how to get horny, then listen up.
#1 Watch something steamy. You remember the scene in Ghost where Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore sit at the potter wheel, attempting to make a vase? Or basically every scene from Cruel Intentions? Of course you do, those scenes were hot as hell. If you watch that with your partner and don’t end up trying to recreate that, then something is wrong there.
If you start to think about it, there’s an endless list of movies that can easily turn you on and make you horny. Sure, you could watch porn, but if you’re a man, your lady isn’t going to love it. Most women are turned off by porn because we enjoy the plot. We want conversation, we want the buildup—not just some guy who takes off his pants and calls it a day. Where’s the imagination? Exactly. So put on a steamy film and let yourself relax and get horny with your partner. [Read: Get in the mood with these movies with a lot of sex]
#2 Take some naughty photos. You don’t need to take fully nude shots of yourself for your partner. Sending a shot of their favorite body part, or if you’re a female, you can do a sexy lingerie shot. That’ll do the trick. The point is, naughty doesn’t have to be nude. Boudoir photos are great examples of creating sensual and sexy scenes without having to take a photo spread eagle.
If you send your partner a photo of you during work, make sure you’re ready when you come home because they’ll get horny. Very horny.
#3 Take a weekend getaway. Sometimes when you’re in the grind of working full time, you become lazy and lose some of the sexual energy you once had. If that’s the case, then it’s time to spice things up! Be spontaneous and book a weekend getaway. It’s a great way to bring the sexual energy back between you and your partner.
When you remove yourself from your daily responsibilities, you and your partner have the opportunity to relax and let loose. My boyfriend and I once booked a hotel room in the same city we lived in. We didn’t leave the hotel room the whole weekend—you get the point. [Read: 8 tips to have a great time when you travel as a couple]
#4 Touch yourself. Masturbating is a great way to get yourself and your partner in the mood. If they walk into the bed while you’re touching yourself, there is no way they’re walking out with clothes on. Whether you’re a guy or girl, take some time touching yourself. If my boyfriend and I watched a movie, and I subtly started to touch myself, he’d notice it within seconds. And well, we never found out the ending of Iron Man. I hear it’s a good movie, though.
#5 Munch on some aphrodisiacs. Do not underestimate the power of food. If you need to kickstart your libido, try munching on some foods that are natural aphrodisiacs, they’ll help you get horny and increase your arousal. So, jump in the car and run to the market to buy these foods:
– Olive Oil
– Bananas
– Vanilla
– Honey
– Red wine *a personal favorite*
– Figs
– Walnuts
– Avocados
– Chocolate
– Chili Peppers
– Pomegranates
– Oysters *brush your teeth after eating this one*
These foods boost the production of sex hormones in both men and women, now that’s true equality. [Read: Aphrodisiacs and food hell: A lover’s guide to eating well]
#6 Wear red. You remember the bull chasing the matador? Well, that’s basically the effect of the color red. Men view women who wear red to be more sexually appealing than those who wear other colors. Why? Good question. It’s just how we’re wired. Humans see red as a sign of sexual interest. Don’t blame me if your closet has only black and gray in it.
#7 Foreplay. Of course, everyone enjoys sex, but there’s something about foreplay. Foreplay can be almost anything, from oral sex to a sensual massage. The point is to slowly increase the sexual tension between you two and get horny before having sex. This is your opportunity to explore each other’s bodies. Kiss, touch, bite, grab—do it all.

#8 It’s all in the nose. You may think dousing yourself in perfume or cologne would get your partner’s attention. However, that isn’t quite the case. Smelling like a perfume shop isn’t going to turn on anyone but the wasps. But, you should know our sense of smell is heavily tied to memory.
So, take a shower, put on some perfume or cologne, but remember, subtlety is what drives people crazy. I mean, nothing is hotter than walking by someone who smells amazing.
#9 Get your sweat on. There is something very sexy about looking at a guy who just finished his workout. He’s sweaty, his muscles glisten, his shirt sticks to his body—yummy. In his case, working out releases dopamine and norepinephrine which are chemicals that ignite the feeling of love.
For women, when your man is sweaty, the pheromones in his sweat are actually making your cortisol, the hormone associated with arousal, rises. If you’re a sweaty man, then you’re in the clear.
#10 Play fighting. Have you ever started play fighting with a guy or girl and ended up having sex? Well, golly gee, I wonder why that happened. Play fighting or tickling is a great way to build up the sexual tension between you two. Now, when I mean play fighting, I don’t mean UFC cage fighting. Keep it light and fun. There should be no tapping out. You’re aiming for sex, not the ER. [Read: 9 primal ways to have angry sex and do it right!]
#11 Getting frisky in public. You don’t have to have sex in public in order to get an adrenaline boost. While you’re walking down the street, playfully grab your partner’s ass or when you’re at a restaurant, put your hand on their upper thigh and squeeze it. These little things build up the sexual tension because they can’t react how they would like to. If it works, your night out is going to end a lot earlier than expected. Actually, we’re going to take our dinner to go.
