PHOTOS : How To Have Fun In Bed With Your Partner Without Sex

People choose to wait to have sex with a romantic partner for a wide variety of reasons. If you're one of many people who have made this decision, you can still enjoy sensual activities with your partner without having intercourse.

Have a sincere, personal conversation: Emotional intimacy is key for a serious relationship. Also, you can use this time to discuss each other's "comfort zone" about physical intimacy. Touch each other in simple, non-sexual ways, such as hugging, holding hands, or snuggling in bed.

Give each other full-body massages: You can make this extra sensual by using scented lotion or oil.

Work on great kissing: You'll both enjoy your practice time!

Take a bath together, or relax in a hot tub.

Draw or photograph each other naked: Doing this allows you to slow down and appreciate every detail of your partner's body.

Play games with a twist, such as strip poker.

Read erotic literature together, or watch an explicit movie.

Roleplay fantasy situations.
