The Art of Role Playing

When you’re ready to take your sexual relationship from average to exceptional, role-playing is certainly an avenue you may want to explore. There’s something about the guise of being in character that allows couples to open their mind to things they might not have considered before. Role-playing also makes it easier to reveal some of your hidden desires. It can alleviate some of the boredom and pressure to be creative or try every new position under the sun.

If you’ve never engaged in this activity before, it might seem a little silly at first, especially if you chose to wear costumes. The best way to start out is to really go slowly. You can introduce the topic by asking a simple question such as, “Have you been good today?” The endless answers to that kind of question invite many different role-playing scenarios. You can also set up a scene that you both must act as a character in. For example, one of you will come to the door to fix something and things lead from there. If you want to be a little more formal about the process, send an invitation to your partner inviting them to join you in a little sex play. Explain their character and give any other instructions you wish them to follow. After you’ve done it a few times, you’ll both feel a little more comfortable with it and the ideas for new adventures will be something you’ll both be eager to explore.
