5 natural ways to improve your sex drive

Though diet and exercise help to improve sex drive, some herbs and fruits also help as sex stimulants.

WE ARE ALL ON A QUEST TO FIND SOLUTIONS OR FIND IMPROVEMENT WITH EVERYTHING. PART OF THIS QUEST IS FINDING WAYS TO IMPROVE AND BOOST OUR SEX DRIVE.

While you are looking for supplements and artificial ways to improve and boost your sex drive, there are natural ways to do.

Though diet and exercise help to improve sex drive, some herbs and fruits also help as sex stimulants.

There are some herbs that are natural sex boosters.

Here are 5 different kinds of herbs and fruits that will boost your sex drive

1. Ginger

Ginger is a common type of root spice originally grown in China.

Ginger has a very strong aroma. Though ginger is used to help indigestion, ginger serves as a sex booster.

It helps to increase the sexual performance. Ginger contains gingerol which is related to capsaicin that is found in chilli pepper.

Gingerol gives a sudden warmth to the body, that increases blood flow which increases sexual arousal for both man and woman and improved penis erection for the man.

2. Watermelon

Watermelon is known to be a natural viagra.

It contains phytonutrients called citrulline which relaxes the blood vessels and improves circulation of blood around the genitals.

It helps to treat erectile dysfunction and increase the libido. Unlike viagra, consuming watermelon doesn’t have side effects.

3. Banana

Banana is another fruitthat boosts sexual. Banana helps to boost the libido with the presence of bromelain.

Bromelain is an enzyme which increases the libido and helps to fight impotence in men.

Banana is also rich in potassium and contains a vitamin called riboflavin which increases the body’s overall energy levels.

4. Ginseng

Ginseng is a fleshy root plant that comes in different varieties. But the most common types of ginseng are the American ginseng and Asian ginseng.

But the Asian ginseng is best in boosting libido. Studies have shown that ginseng helps to boost the testosterone in men, which means it makes the men function more in bed.

Also, ginseng helps to improve erection of men with erectile dysfunction and it reduces infertility in men.

5. Honey

Honey is also a sexual stimulant.

The honey base contains a type of mineral by the name boron which boosts testosterone in men and also putting oestrogen to good use.

Daily and regular intake of honey helps to boost sperm cells production and also aids in the revitalisation of both the male and female reproductive organs

9 Types Of People Who Simply Aren’t Marriage Material

By:Brittany Wong

It’s easy to disregard your reservations when you’ve found someone who seems perfect for you on paper. But trusting your instincts in the beginning of a relationship could save you a tremendous amount of hurt down the road.

Below, relationship experts offer nine types of people who just aren’t marriage material.

1. The flake.
The two of you have so much in common and the chemistry is undeniable. You can’t wait until the next date — whenever that will be; it’s damn near impossible to get him to pencil in time for you. The last thing you need is someone who comes in and out of your life but never really commits, said Brenda Della Casa, the author of Cinderella Was a Liar: The Real Reason You Can’t Find (or Keep) a Prince.

“They might tell you to be patient or to ‘trust’ them, but you’re probably feeling more anxiety than butterflies,” she said. “You have an instinct for a reason and it’s OK to trust and protect yourself in relationships. Those who want to be with you will make adjustments and those who want to be with you out of convenience will fall by the wayside when you set strong boundaries in place.”

2. The too-much-too-soon type.

It’s only date number three and you’ve already been handed a set of keys to her apartment and heard her top five private school choices for your future offspring. That spidey sense you’re picking up, telling you to back away slowly from this person? Listen to it, said Amy Van Doran, a New York City-based matchmaker and founder of The Modern Love Club.

“What’s the rush here? If it’s real, you are not going anywhere. This excitement is less about you, and more about their insecurities and who they are as a person,” she said. “It’s a red flag when they are too effusive with their words and their actions before they get to know you as a person. The second you share their excitement, the whirlwind has already passed and they are onto their next romantic conquest. Time is the best indicator for who a person actually is.”

3. The selfish S.O.
A great romantic partner is generous and willing to indulge the occasional “ugh, today at work…” rant. If you get the sense that the person you’re seeing isn’t totally supportive, it’s a good idea to press pause on the relationship, said dating coach Jeffrey Platts.

“This is really about all forms of giving,” he said. “Is he generous with his compliments? Does she listen to you when you’re having a rough day? Overall, do you feel that he or she is your absolute biggest fan and cheerleader? And just as important as giving, are they able to pause and fully receive whatever you’re giving? If not, what’s the point? It takes a healthy self-esteem to openly give or receive an expression of love or support — and you need that in a partner.”

4. The critic.
You can’t seem to do or say anything right with this person. Ever. Your theory on what really happened in the “Serial” murder case? Implausible at best. Your unapologetic love for World of Warcraft? A total time-suck. The judgement is incessant — and in the long-run, who wants to be in a relationship with someone that critical?

“Initially, their stubbornness and convictions might seem attractive — it’s hot when someone knows who they are and what they want,” said Julie Nguyen, a matchmaker at The Modern Love Club in New York City. “Those qualities start to turn ugly when you realize there’s no room for what you want. These critics demand things to be done a certain way, their way. Real relationships are negotiated by compromise, empathy and the capacity to want to understand where the other person is coming from.”

5. The sidekick.
Anything and everything you propose gets the OK, from your plans for the weekend to when you’ll move in together. And time apart is virtually non-existent — you’re joined at the hip. You wanted a partner who’d be willing to compromise; not someone who sits on the sidelines and lets you take the lead on every decision, Nguyen said.

“Instead of delving inwards, this type of person intensely picks up your hobbies, follows your passions and does whatever you want to do,” she explained. “In the beginning, it’s easy and flattering to have someone like you without much effort. However as the relationship progresses, it becomes unfulfilling when you start to realize there’s no challenge in the partnership because the other person has nothing else to offer. You need a partner, not a sidekick.”

6. The narcissist.

It’s my way or the highway with the narcissist. A narcissist can’t admit when he or she is wrong and has hissy fits when others try to assert their needs. Clearly, those aren’t qualities you’re looking for in a long-term partner, Della Casa said.

“This is someone who has the inability to empathize with those around them,” she said. “Think about being in a relationship with a narcissist for a minute: Any time you’re hurt, need support or count on them to consider how you might feel — they won’t be there for you. No real understanding, no sincere apologies, no consideration. That’s definitely not the relationship you want.”

7. The job hopper.
Don’t write someone off simply because they’re in the middle of a career change or looking for work after going back to school. But if the person you’re seeing is constantly unemployed, getting fired or changing jobs every few months, it may signal a bigger problem, said Della Casa.

“It showcases an inability to make a long-term commitment to something and also gives some insight into their value system,” she said. “Whether their movement stems from a sense of entitlement, a lack of self worth or an inability to work well with others, that negative behavior or trait will ultimately find its way into your relationship.”

8. The over-reactor.

Arguments and disagreements are bound to happen in any healthy relationship. (It’s a good thing, too; you wouldn’t have the occasional fight with your partner if you didn’t care about the relationship.) That said, you need an S.O. who has the emotional wherewithal to fight fair, not someone who will flip out at the slightest hint of disagreement, Platt said.

“Both partners need to have to the emotional skill of hold space for the other’s feelings and perspectives,” he said. “It’s a big red flag if the person blows up at the first sign of fight and threatens to end the relationship. Our emotional triggers are opportunities to explore our emotions and grow closer, not automatic reasons to question your compatibility or the relationship. The question to ask is: ‘Do I feel safe to express myself, even during the heated and stressful moments? And does my partner feel the same?’ And if the answer is no, find out why.”

9. The lone wolf.
It’s essential that you both have lives outside of your relationship. But if you’re with someone who’s so good on her own, she hints that she doesn’t need you in her life, take that as your exit cue, Van Doran said.

“The truth is, a little dependency in a relationship is not a bad thing,” she said. “All humans crave connection and a relationship, it’s an innate need for people. The overly independent person might say that they want a relationship but won’t actually make the space in their life for two people. No matter what, you can’t fit in because they won’t let you get closer. The more you need… the further you push them away. Ultimately, you don’t want to deal with that kind of emotional distance in a relationship.”

Ladies! Here Are 10 Things Your Man Should Never Make You Do, No Matter How much you love him

Things your man should never make you do – You might think that you love your man so much, you’d do absolutely anything for him, but then again, there are also some things a man simply should never ask a woman to do for him.

Being in a relationship doesn’t mean that you have to give up the right to be an individual, with a mind of your own, so find out where the line has to be drawn and read these ten things no man should ever ask a girl to do:

10. Force you to stay when you really want to leave

If you are really unhappy in a relationship, then you should end it. Don’t let a man force to you to stay, just because he doesn’t want it to end and, don’t let him make you stay through emotional blackmail either.

9. Have an abortion

Things happen and, if an unexpected pregnancy occurs, then the man must step up to the mark and take his responsibilities seriously.

He should never, under any circumstances, tell the woman to have an abortion. That is a very emotional decision that only the woman can make and then the man should be there to support her, whatever she decides.

8. Be more of a girl

Yes, some guys do still think that girls should know their place! Well, don’t stand for it.

If you are not the pretty pink, candy floss, stay at home type, then don’t be.

Get out there and do the things that you want to do, even if he does think that they are not ‘girly’ enough pastimes.

7. Stop seeing your friends:

You do need a life outside of a relationship and friends are an important part of that.

If he is trying to stop you from going out with your friends, then that’s a sign of his own insecurities or of his controlling nature and you shouldn’t be putting up with it.

6. Change who you are:

You are who you are, you should be proud of that, and he should love you for it too.

A man should not ask you to change who you are because, if you do, then it will only be pretence and you won’t be happy pretending to be someone else.

5. Have a baby before you are ready:

It’s your body and you will know when the time is right for you to have children.

Kids aren’t just accessories that go with a relationship, they are a huge, long term, commitment and both partners must be sure that they are ready for that.

4. Forget your dreams:

Whether its finishing college, going to university, having kids or following a career, a man should never ask to you give up your dreams for him.

You should be able to work together, so that you can both follow your dreams and share them together.

3. Have physical intimacy without protection:

Unless you are really settled in a long term relationship, then physical intimacy without a ‘protection’ is an obvious no-no and a man should never ask you to do it.

Some guys do still have a hang up about using a safety hat, but, if he has that little respect for you, then it should be telling you something more about this man.

2. Switch religions or beliefs:

Convert or go is not a thing that anyone should be told, because your beliefs are your own and they should not be up for negotiation.

If he can persuade you to modify your beliefs, through rational and logical debate, and you are comfortable with that, then that’s no problem. But, it should be your decision alone, no one else’s.

1. Stop seeing your family:

Relationships with the in-laws can often be fraught, but he doesn’t have the right to tell you to stop seeing your family, or to make you choose between them and him.

Your family were around way before him and they could be around long after too.

Stop Using Saliva As Sex Lubricant

Lubrication, especially v-@-gina lubrication is an important part of Sexual arousal. It readies the v-@-gina for penetration and reduces any accompanying friction or irritation. In this regard, a medical expert has warned against the practice of using saliva as a lubricant during Sex.

Dr Kolade Johnson who works in a private hospital told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Ilorin that if anyone with a mouth sore use saliva as a lubricant, the partner would be exposed to genital herpes.

He said other diseases that could arise from using saliva as Sex lubricant include Human Papilo Virus (HPV), syphilis, chlamydia and even gonorrhoea among others.

The medical expert said it could be worse for women as saliva could upset the v-@-gina environment to cause v-@-gina or yeast infections.

10 Ways to Make Any Relationship Last

By By Daniel G. Amen

Love that lasts is the result of partners embedding themselves in each other’s brains in a positive way. Memory circuits and pleasure get all wound up together so that the other person becomes integral to the very structure of your brain, and you become part of the structure of theirs. (Here’s more on what happens to your brain when you’re in love.)

Here are some steps toward making your love last:

1. Take your partner’s breath away.

Do something amazingly thoughtful and out of the ordinary and try to incorporate an element of surprise to it: a loving note tucked into a pocket. A special dinner on an otherwise ordinary night. A playlist made up with his favorite songs. These thoughtful acts will embed you in your partner’s memory.

2. Do something special on a regular basis.

Call them every day just to touch base for a few minutes. Make their favorite meal once a week. Once they begin to expect these things, you will always be close to their awareness.

3. Engage in lots of eye contact.

New couples seem to do this naturally, but don’t drop this strong bonding behavior just because the relationship has progressed. This is one way to keep the “romance alive”, as they say, and is especially powerful when making love. (Need inspo? These hot-and-heavy sex positions could spark joy in your sex life.)

4. Learn what pleases your partner sexually.

Make it clear that their pleasure is your pleasure, and you want to discover everything about what turns them on. They’ll be happy to have you experiment with them while making love.

5. Teach your partner what you like.

Likewise, making you happy will make your partner feel good. And research shows that the sexual pleasure of one partner increases the pleasure of the other partner. (Figure out what you like using these 13 tips for a mind-blowing masturbation session.)

6. Boost lasting love with sexual novelty.

When things get humdrum and routine, there is not going to be as much of a hormonal/neurotransmitter reaction, and arousal is lessened. While you don’t have to break out the whips and chains, a little novelty while you’re making love can increase anticipation, which means that more hormones are secreted. The result? Hotter, more thrilling sex for both of you. (You can start with one of these vibrators.)

7. Do something edgy.

If you get your partner’s heart rate up, they may associate the feeling of excitement with you and may develop more powerful feelings for you. Going on a roller-coaster ride, taking a balloon trip, shooting the rapids-anything with a touch of danger to it-can make them fall more deeply in love with you. (This couple tried learning trapeze together.)

8. Do something great for someone your partner loves.

If you show kindness and love for someone they love, you’ll earn major points. When you enter a relationship, you also enter a relationship with all their family and friends. Show them that the people who are important to them are important to you.

9. Summarize and immortalize loving moments.

Don’t be afraid to give voice to your love. Tell them how you feel. Write a loving note or poem. Lovers have been doing this from the beginning of time because it works.

10. Boost the love chemicals.

There are many brain chemicals that go into the feeling of love and attachment. Oxytocin is known as the bonding, trust, and cuddle hormone. Oxytocin is enhanced by watching romantic movies together, holding hands, cuddling, and long, loving eye contact. (And kissing, which has a bunch of other health benefits!) Women usually have more oxytocin than men, but according to one study, a man’s level of oxytocin goes up 500 percent after making love. Being too busy to make love pushes couples apart.
