Something me and my wife almost always do is light a bunch of the little tea light candles all over the room. It makes for a real dramatic affect. It really helps set the mood and the light is low enough that small flaws don't stand out near as much, even if you was looking for them.
You can buy a box of 12 pretty cheap, and then buy a few rolls of extra tea light candles. Very nice!
Another thing you can do is use red light bulbs for lighting. Not to be tacky but I heard there is a reason they use them in certian places. They are suppose to create a dramatic effect as well, hide flaws, blemishes, ect. I might give this a try some time.
I want to! Yikes! He hasn't been specifically asking..but at random times he'll make small comments.. But never just asks.
It seems like he doesn't want to put me in an uncomfortable position, or get uncomfortable himself.
Guys-- how should I go about it without it seeming contrived- how would it be welll received?
Honestly what do u think will go through his mind? Whew- that FREAKS me out!
But I want to be open with him...

Knock back a 1/2 a bottle of wine.
Say "Hey can you come in here, I want to show you something"

OK, you screwed up, it happens. Now apologize. But apologize just once. Make it loud, clear, short, to the point, and directly to those you trespassed against. Then move on.
Yep, I considered indulging in a couple glasses before I shed my layers before him..
That way, I'll be relaxed enough to not care but sober enough to remember his reaction..so I can hopefully be brave again the next time with no alcohol involved..
(Candlelight is very forgiving, I might go with that too..)

yes, i agree with what was stated earlier about candles.
if youre not quite sure yet, use candles and a nighty and with just candle light, let the nighty slip off your shoulders slowly and seductively.
After many years of self loathing I have finally come to accept my body. I exercise and watch what I eat so I do try to look my best. It's far from perfect IMO, and I still have some weight to lose, but my husband seems very happy with it. I think I look pretty darn good for my age (close to 40).
Confidence plays a huge part in sexiness. My husband said that when I used to put myself down about how I looked, it was the biggest turn off. Now that I gladly let him see and touch everything, he's happier and hornier than ever! LOL

Just to add my bit, my wife doesnt appreciate herself as much as I appreciate her, and I cant get enough of her nakedness. She has put on a little weight since we first met and I love her figure more so with curves, which is what she has, but I feel her best part is her extensive stretch marks on her tummy, from child birth and they make her unique, they also feel so soft and to me just sexy. Mind what she calls her lack of a bum is a long way from the mark, its the best part of her, and altogether I could spend the day gazing at her for sure if she would let me of course lol!!!!

I appreciate what everyone offers up here, the more the better! So thank you!
Your wife is so lucky to have a man like you..as are all the wives of the men who have contributed here.
It still amazes me after reading so many positive posts, that my H might actually be attracted to me like this- I know that seems dense after all the awesome posts, but 15 yrs. of thinking one way will take a bit of time to reverse
It's been so long that I have not been able to be comfortable naked that when I do throw caution to the wind, he's probably going to wonder what the heck is up with me- it could totally be painfully awkward..hoping when the time is right, he takes it okay! Posted via Mobile Device
