On your anniversary you may want to pay more attention to how you do it. The ideas in this article give you clear steps to follow. They cover preparation, how to move, what to say and how to end. You can do most of them without buying anything. Take time to talk with your partner about which ones sound good. This way the night stays focused on what you both enjoy.
Action
Take a few minutes to make the bedroom comfortable. Remove any clutter from the bed and set the lighting low. Get undressed and move into the first position once the space is ready. This helps you avoid interruptions and keeps the focus on each other for the anniversary.
Pro-Tip
Do the preparation together as a way to start the evening.
Spicy Twist
Try preparing the room in silence.
