I know your momma probably taught you that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach but I am here to tell you something else.  I know plenty of ladies who can’t boil water let alone cook and they have no problem keeping a man. What’s their secret? The truth of the matter is keeping your man happy is not through his stomach, it’s a little more south.  

Rapper Ludacris made the phrase “a lady in the streets but a freak in the bed” popular in 2008 and it still rings true today.

I won’t argue that it’s cool to be able to whip up a home-cooked meal but that isn’t all a woman should be able to whip! 

It’s not all about sex, but I would be lying if I didn’t say that’s a big part of it.

Unlike your best pot roast or fried chicken recipe you cannot continue to serve up the same moves night after night.  You might follow your mother’s or grandmother’s recipe to a “t” but when dealing with matters of the heart, I suggest you keep him guessing.  

Here are 3 simple tips on how to really keep a man that does not involve cooking, cleaning or sewing

Switch It Up

Remember how much fun you had dressing up for Halloween as a kid?  Why not continue that fun and excitement in your grown life! There’s nothing wrong with having an alter ego complete with a different name and look.  I highly recommend wigs and outfits outside of your norm just for your mate.  Do you think Beyonce leaves her “Sasha Fierce” character on stage all the time?!?

New Moves

You would be surprised what a new move in the bedroom can do.  If you’re not sure where to find “new moves” they are all around!  Zumba class, Pilates and adult videos are tried and true sources – guaranteed to make your mate take notice of your improved skills.

Give In

I know the last thing on your mind is messing up your hair straight from the beauty shop but sometimes you just have to give in to keep your partner happy. Remember, it’s only a hairdo… it can be fixed.  And, if you take my advice in #1- Switch It Up and wear a wig your hair won’t even be an issue!!!! My point, nothing is that serious.  A quickie causing a messed up ‘do’’ is in the end, all worth it. 

It sounds simple enough but a lot of us don’t do it.  We get so bogged down with every day chores that these tips seem extra. 

If you want to keep your man then you need to adapt your thinking towards sex and find just as much pleasure in the activity as he does. And, if you can get into his head and learn how he thinks you have officially sealed the deal.
