Or: What to do when sex feels more like a Monday morning than a passionate night out.
There comes a point when your bedroom routine feels more like a weather report than a steamy romance: “Tonight’s forecast – partly moany with a chance of mild satisfaction.” Sound familiar?
You’re not alone.
The spark that lit up the early days of a relationship can sometimes get buried under laundry, work emails, and that same old position you could probably do in your sleep. But here’s the good news: this isn’t the end. It’s a new beginning – if you’re willing to shake things up a little.
1. Routine is comfy – but sexy? Not always.
Being in a relationship is great. Love, stability, trust – all the good stuff. But sometimes, that same comfort zone turns into autopilot sex: quiet, predictable, over and done with.
Sex thrives on curiosity and surprise. Just like a great series, if you already know what’s coming, your brain will tune out.
Time to rewrite the script.
💡 One of our readers shared: “Five years into our relationship, we could practically time our orgasms. Then we bought these sexy dice and suddenly our Thursday nights were fun again. Simple, silly, but wow – it worked.”
2. If your hands are stuck in the same places, your mind starts to wander
Your body may love routine, but your brain? It craves novelty.
That’s why new partners often feel more exciting – not because they’re better, but because they’re different.
You can recreate that thrill at home. All you need is a little something fresh.
👉 Try something from our Remote Control Vibrators category – discreet, fun, and ideal for couples looking to spice things up from across the room (or across town).
3. Laughter is seriously underrated foreplay
Sex doesn’t always have to be serious. In fact, a little laughter can make things so much hotter.
💡 A customer once told us: “My guy had no idea how to use one of those vibrating rings, and we laughed so hard it turned into an impromptu marathon. Now it’s part of our regular routine.”
👉 Check out our full range of Cock Rings – some vibrate, some squeeze, all of them are built for pleasure and fun.
If you can’t laugh together in bed, you’re probably missing out on more than just a good orgasm.
4. Lube isn’t a backup plan – it’s an upgrade
Let’s bust a myth right now: lube isn’t only for when something’s “wrong.” It’s for when you want everything to feel even better.
👉 Browse our Lubricants – from water-based to silicone and everything in between. Trust us, once you start using lube regularly, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.
5. Schedule the sexy – yes, really
People love to say, “If you have to schedule sex, something’s wrong.” But ask any busy couple and they’ll tell you – anticipation is hot.
💡 A mum of three shared this: “We started having a weekly ‘try something new’ night – sometimes a new position, sometimes a cheeky little finger vibe. We’ve had more fun and more sex in the last two months than in the previous two years.”
👉 Explore our Intim stimulators – small, powerful, and perfect for hands-on play or solo teasing.
Final thoughts: Boredom isn’t the end – it’s the start of something new
Feeling bored in bed doesn’t mean you’re broken. But staying bored? That’s optional.
Great sex doesn’t have to be perfect. It just needs to be real, fun, and a little unexpected. And if you need a little help to get there, well – that’s what SEXstore.ie is for.
Explore new sensations. Try something wild. Laugh until you cry.
Because the best kind of sex? The kind that surprises you. Every time. 😉
