An Erotic Guide to Quarantine: Connect with Your Sexual Side

Whether you’re social distancing, in quarantine, or in lock down like I am here in Barcelona, I have been thinking about how we can all keep in touch with our erotic selves during this time. It’s important for us to look after ourselves and try to find joy and satisfaction in our daily routines (indoors). So I have put together an erotic guide to help us all get through this period – whether you’re single, a couple living together or part of a couple living apart there should be something to help you. Have a look at the section that is most suitable to your living situation but please check the other lists too as there may be suggestions that you can also do!

For The Couples Living Together

I can assure you that Netflix & Chill will get boring pretty quickly, so work your way through this list and keep the erotic spark alive while you’re both stuck indoors.

1. Take a shower together and have some good, clean fun in the bathroom.

2. Cuddle through it. We’re all for social distancing but if you live with your partner, now is not the time to stop cuddling. Just be conscious that you’re both being hygienic.

3. Sleep in different beds. Sometimes its good to have time apart and a good night’s sleep in seperate beds. It can make it even more special when you do actually share a bed together. Also, you can plan a time to meet in the shower in the morning..

4. Give each other erotic massages with some natural oils.

5. Watch some adult movies together and maybe act out some of the moves after.

6. If you’re really in the mood you can make a homemade sex tape, just make sure you’re filming it with someone you trust and be careful about where you store it.

7. If someone in your relationship has a vagina, then you can watch Kenneth Play’s guide to multiple orgasms and practice together. If there are no vaginas in your relationship check out the other Lust Ed videos to find a more suitable one.

8. Show & Tell! Give each other a lesson on exactly how you like to be touched.

For Couples Living Apart

I know it must be tough if you’re living apart and you can’t see each other due to quarantine, but thanks to technology there are lots of ways you can remain intimate with your partner, no matter the distance.

1. Send nudes! Need I say more? And while you’re at it you can send some sexy texts telling your partner exactly what you’d like to be doing if you were together.

2. Video call and enjoy being in each other’s company. Whether it’s sexual or not, you can eat together, masturbate together, watch the same erotic movie at the same time…

3. Send each other genital moulds. Have a look online and send your partner a surprise in the post.

4. Write a list of all the sexual things you want to try together after quarantine.

5. Do the test to find out your love languages and learn about each other’s.

6. Ask each other the infamous 36 questions that lead to love.

7. Send each other love letters (via email if you can’t post!)

8. Download the XConfessions App for free and learn about your shared desires and kinks.

For Single (or Self-Partnered) People

Now is the perfect time to fall even more in love with yourself…

1. Please, repeat after me: Don’t text your ex! Now is not the time to overthink your beak-ups and send a message to your ex. Put your phone away and distract yourself in other, much more pleasurable ways.

2. Explore your body and re-discover your pleasures. Touch new parts of your body, spend 30 minutes touching everything but your genitals, find new erogenous zones, light a candle and take things slow.

3. Write a sexual bucket list of all of the things you want to try alone

4. Write a list of your favourite adult movies or performers and share them with your friends

5. Read some erotica and if you’re feeling very inspired write your own!

6. Confess your sexual desires to me on XConfessions. Your sexual confession might become my next screenplay!

7. Write a list of your sexual desires and fantasies. You can download the XConfessions App and play by yourself if you want to discover new ones!

8. Have a date night with yourself. Cook yourself a nice meal, listen to music, drink wine, massage your feet, masturbate and write a list of all of the things that you love about yourself!

However you’re spending your days at the moment, look after yourself and be kind with yourself.

Sending love and lust to all of you ?
