'Introducing kinkier elements into your sex life together can create a sense of adventure and deepen sense of trust,' Balestrieri says. Plus, if you’re in a serious relationship, talking about your kinks and preferences can help you feel more connected to your partner, says Kate Balestrieri, licensed psychologist, certified therapist and founder of Modern Intimacy. In fact, there are basic, accessible ways to make sex feel more erotic without going into full BDSM mode (unless you want to). Taking relationships-whether long term, a casual fling, or a FWB-to the next level and getting a little kinky doesn’t have to be as intimidating as it sounds. If you've only rotated between two or three sex positions in the past month, it's probably time to spice things up (for your own pleasure's sake).
