Sharing Your Sex Fantasies With your Partner: Sizzler or Fizzler?

Bringing Your Partner Into the Loop With Sexual Fantasies

But when it's only inhibition, not guilt, that's keeping you from sharing your fantasies from your partner, it might be mutually beneficial to let those feelings surface, say experts.

"Don't expect your partner to figure out what turns you on. Tell your partner. That's all part of the fantasy," McClary says. "Life's too short to wait for your partner to figure it out."

For many couples, sharing erotic fantasies may be a matter of remembering how things used to be when your relationship was new. "Ask yourself, 'What's going to make us start giggling again? What used to be sexy and fun?'" McClary says.
