Valentine's Day has always been the Day to show how much you love your partner. But what if you want to bring the romance back into your relationship? Below are 4 Valentine's Day sex positions that will help spice up things on your valentines Day!

One of the most romantic days of the year is fast approaching, and you want to give your partner something special this Valentine's Day to show them how much you love them. Valentine's Day sex positions are an excellent way to spice up your sex life together, adding more passion and making things more interesting between the sheets in the process! This article will go over 4 different sex positions you can try out with your partner this Valentine's Day to help make things even better! These detailed explanations of the positions will give you what you need to understand them and how to do it yourself.

The Flower

This position requires a bed or other raised surface for her to lie on and balance. You can do it with or without pillows under her bum, but you may need to move them from time to time as things heat up. The idea is that she spreads her legs (or knees bent if she's tight) wide and either puts a pillow under each thigh or between them. For deeper penetration, try bending her legs up towards her head. It should allow you to get extra deep, which is great for your partner if she loves deep thrusting.

This amazing sex position can vary according to your partner's preference. You can switch it up to fit your moment every time you decide to try it out. Your partner can try and get one leg around your waste if it is better for her giving the man a tight grip that can help turn him on. The basic principle of this style is that their legs are open, which is why some might call it the Open flower. It's refreshing to enjoy your sexual experience with your lover and add more contact if that is what you crave.

The Lotus

To pull off Lotus, start by lying on your back and have your partner straddle you. (She should be facing you) Next, have her squat as she lowers herself onto your penis. Ensure she has enough lube, so she doesn't burn herself out of discomfort or friction. Gorbach et al. (2012) stated that lube reduces friction during sex. This position gives both partners a great view of each other's bodies and allows easy clitoral stimulation. According to Towne (2019), clitoral stimulation leads to orgasms. If her legs get tired during Lotus, she can easily prop them up on pillows or furniture for extra support.

This amazing style gives both partners enough body contact to give the intimacy and sweet feeling they deserve on a special day like Valentine's. With your partner facing you, you can easily have eye contact to help you understand what your partner loves and needs you to do more. This visual interaction will go a long way to help both of you enjoy sex as you have never felt before.

Better yet, you can choose to switch it up and add variations to the lotus sex position. Change the leaning angle or speed of grinding for a variation of sensation. You can even change the body movement variation by grinding or bouncing to stimulate both of you. The lotus sex position is loved by many because it gives so much intimacy while giving a powerful body charge that will help enhance your body movement.

The Treasure Chest Sex Position

The treasure chest sex position requires the woman to lie down while one of their legs is raised to face the roof. The woman's other leg can be laid straight or curled on the man's waist for a strong grip; the man can then be at the center of the legs and can penetrate the woman easily. This great sex position offers deeper penetration and intimacy as both partners get to watch as it slides in and out. One of the man's hands can hold up the woman's leg while the other is free to roam and appreciate the woman's beauty. The best part is that the woman's hands are free; she can stimulate her clitoris or choose to blow his man's brain as they run through the man's body.

Start in missionary, but scoot back until your hips are almost off of his. Then, wrap your legs around him as though you're trying to trap him between your thighs. You can lift up a bit from his chest to pull him in close and let gravity help you both. The treasure chest works for many reasons: It gives deeper penetration, and some women find it easier to orgasm if they can draw their knees closer to their chests. Faubion  & Rullo (2015) stated that deep penetration could lead to orgasms. However, don't let that position keep you from exploring others.

The Spork Sex Position

This is an easy position to do, but most people would not be able to hold it for a long time. The spork sex position is done in a standing-up position, and your head needs to lean against something like a wall or the back of your door. If you can do that comfortably, then you are ready for it. In this sex position, her legs need to be spread out far enough where she can easily balance. When her body balance is right, you need to enter her using a lot of force and start thrusting away while rubbing her clitoris (or using toys). According to Döring (2021), sex toys add pleasure. The two of you will have no problem keeping steady while having sex in spork because if one person loses their balance, then both will fall together so that there is no loss in pleasure.

This is a great position for couples who love doing missionary sex position but are often exhausted from it. If you enjoy missionary sex, you will find that there is no need to break up from the spork because it allows your hands to move freely while giving you greater access and control over your partner. This makes it easy for your body and mind to focus on pleasure rather than just controlling her balance or keeping herself steady so that she can enjoy herself to her fullest extent without worrying about worries like whether she is in pain or anything.

Conclusion

It is always good to spice things up; to do that. You must understand what sex positions are best for your body type and relationship. Use this newfound knowledge to pleasure yourselves, spice up your love life, and hopefully have mind-blowing sex with your valentine. Make sure to try each position out a few times before leaving any reviews on different websites because it takes a little practice before you feel comfortable doing these positions. Also, ensure you get plenty of lubrication, so you do not experience dryness or discomfort during intercourse. It can be uncomfortable at first, so it is important to get as much comfort as possible when trying different sex positions.
