12 Romantic Sex Positions That Will Make Your Bed Rock

The Couch Rocker

For a super intimate position that's also totally comfortable, have him sit on the arm of the couch. Sit on his lap, facing him, with your feet on the seat cushion. Rock gently while hugging him tight. Look into his eyes during and it's like a magic love potion.

The Sweet Course

Go ahead and treat yourselves to a candlelit home-cooked meal. Afterwards, sit on the edge of the table, spread your legs, and drizzle a trail of chocolate syrup up your inner thigh. Lie back onto the table so they can lick their way up your leg. Put a little dollop on your clit (not inside anywhere because gross, infection) and let them lick little circles around it. After, return the favor, because you're good like that.

The Binge-Worthy

Lock the door, turn out the lights, and get naked under a cozy blanket for a night Netflix. Be the inner spoon and enjoy the couple snuggliness. Randomly press your bum against him until both of y'all are too turned on and need to press “pause.” He slides in from behind while his leg is wrapped around your hips—you don't even need to leave the couch. For a tighter feel, straighten your legs and press your legs together. Rub clit as needed.

Bed Fort Bondage

Throw the covers over your heads so you're in your own little bed fort. Lie him on his back, pinning his wrists above his head. Get on top of them, then carefully slide so you're laying flat on top of them with your legs between theirs. The angle makes its easier to rub your clit on his pubic bone and the shallow thrusts will keep him lasting longer. Trying to really kiss during sex can feel bouncy and awkward — like two ships grazing past each other in the night — so focusing on telling each other how you feel to amp up the romance. Things like, "I love the way you feel inside me," and "It's amazing when you go slow and deep," can set a very sexy mood.

Saucy Spoons

Lie on your side with your partner behind you so you're both facing the same direction. Push your butt toward them as they enter you. Put your hand on theirs and show them how you want your clitoris to be touched. Have them alternate between touching you there and your breasts. Commence swooning, etc.

The Soft Rock

Lay down on your back and have your partner lay on top, placing their arms on either side of your shoulders. Their body should be flat against yours. With your legs touching theirs, push your pelvis up about two inches. Your partner should push down gently, providing a little counter-resistance. Instead of the usual in-and-out of thrusting, rock up and down. The rhythm feels sultry and irresistible.

The Tight Squeeze

Lie down on your stomach and keep your legs straight but slightly spread. Rest your arms by your side, or stretch them out in front of you. Have your partner stretch their body over yours, resting on their palms or elbows so they don't place all their weight on you. They position their legs outside yours. As they enter you, close your legs and cross them at the ankles. This take on doggy-style sex feels way more intimate and pulls you physically closer together.

Jump and Grind

Is there anything more romantic than leap-into-his-arms, gotta-have-it-right-this-damn-minute sex? Standing-sex can be complicated, but there are a few hacks for getting it right. You can start standing on a raised surface like a chair to make the lift easier. Once you're comfortably snug in your partner's arms, they can push your back up against a wall to lessen the pressure and deepen their thrusts. Win-win.

The Figure Eight

Lie on the floor face up with a couple of pillows propping up your butt. Keep your knees half bent, with one hand free to touch yourself if you're feeling that. Have your partner enter you at a higher angle than usual (the pillows will help), with his hands on the floor beside your head. He should move inside you with slow, figure-eight motions, so that you feel extra clit-stimulation via his pubic bone. The figure-eight motion is key to this maneuver.

The 68

To really bask in the glow of getting your partner off, have them climb on top of you with their head cradled in your knees. Then commence oral as usual. Total bliss.

Straddle The Saddle

If you're looking for a romantic position to optimize eye-contact, try this: have your partner assume a crab-like pose and align your legs on each side, leaning back on your hands. Then get into a slow, rocking rhythm while you watch each other lose it.

The Cocoon

Wrap yourselves in luxe throw, drape your arms around his neck, wrap one leg about his butt, the other straight down between his legs. Roll once so you're wrapped super close together. Pull him closer and deeper with your leg while you're smooching and luxuriating in your little space for two. You can also grab his butt to help start the rhythm, and if he's a little slow to grasp that you want romantic sex, not give-it-to-me-now speed sex.
