Home Twice At Once

As a man, your apartment is your love lair, command center and playground all at once. Hence, your abode has to work for you, not against you. Even if a girl really digs you, there are still things around your home that can seriously turn her off or send her trotting away in dismay.
Here are some details you might want to consider for those times a woman decides to spend the night.
1. make it look "lived in"
Be messy within reason
Contrary to popular belief, women don't want you to scrub your apartment spotless before they come over for the first time. They want it to be just the way it always is. If you make too much effort to clean up your pad, it looks, well, like you're tryingtoo hard. This makes women nervous and generally uncomfortable. Hence, a little bit of clutter is acceptable.
Indeed, success despite a messy place is entirely possible too. But why add any more obstacles to your quest for sex? Your best bet is to maintain a state of general order and cleanliness around your homestead; just don't make it look like you scoured the place top to bottom with a toothbrush.
2. Clean your bathroom
Because most women are born with that neat freak gene, the bathroom has got to be kept reasonably clean. If your bathroom is too funky, they have one more reason not to spend the night. Keep at least two big, clean towels in the bathroom and designate one as "hand washing only."
Stock the bathroom with extra essentials like hand soap, a new unopened toothbrush, toothpaste, and mouthwash. Finally, put down a bathroom mat that she won't be afraid to step on.
make her comfortable
3. Adjust the room temperature
Once you get her in your clutches, you don't want her to leave, so offering comfort in your surroundings is key. Because women are acutely sensitive to temperature, you have to prepare for them to be hot or cold when you are not. At 65 degrees, you might feel fine, while she has goose bumps. So always have an extra blanket handy.
On the other hand, women also hate to sweat. So it pays to invest in a powerful fan if you don't have access to air conditioning.
4. Have a nice-sized bed
A queen-sized mattress is perfect for two average-sized adults. If you still have a double bed, it's time to invest in a bigger bed today. But don't get one of those enormous helicopter landing pad beds. You want her to sleep in the same time zone as you.
Bonus: Put baby wipes near your bed. These are much nicer to clean up with than tissues. Women will appreciate this.
The sheets smell clean, and the entertainment's constant
Keep your linen clean
Women will notice your sheets and pillowcases, so make sure they are sharp-looking, and more importantly, clean. Pleasant odors and images equate pleasant reactions, so ensure that your sheets are stain-free and smell like fabric softener.
Set up some entertainment
In your room, put together an entertainment system with a large TV, DVD, CD player, and VCR in view of the bed. This way, once she's lying down, there's yet another reason for her to stay there longer. And showing a movie after sex might just buy you time to go for a second round. For just such a situation, invest in a collection of female-friendly movies that aren't chick flicks, like Jerry Maguire and Gladiator , so you can enjoy them too.
Prepare extra clothes for her
As a final word on comfort, it's always good to have an extra T-shirt and pair of boxers handy for her to sleep in, if the need arises. Word has it that women enjoy sleeping in men's clothes.
craft a sexual environment
Keep your pad smelling pleasant
First off, it's vital to keep your pad smelling good. Researchers have found strong evidence that estrogen makes women's noses more sensitive than ours. This means that whatever smells bad to you smells worse to her, so keep shoes and dirty laundry out of your bedroom. In their place, use a citrus plug-in air freshener or light some scented candles.
5. Adjust the lighting
Candles can also provide the right mood, another important element in any sexual setting. Or you can dim the lights in the room, if possible. Even using a red-colored light will make your skin, and hers, seem more tan and flawless.
Put on mood music
Be sure to keep a CD or two of atmospheric music near your stereo to be unleashed at the right moment. Good choices include Zero 7's Simple Things , the Garden State soundtrack, Massive Attack's Mezzanine , and Air's The Virgin Suicides . Then again, your music preferences may be completely different. Whatever the case, look for music with a melodic bass line and wispy vocals.
6. Keep alcohol handy
No sexual discussion would be complete without a mention of alcohol. It's always wise to keep some red wine, champagne, and vodka with some cranberry or orange juice mixers on hand.
As well, keep your fridge stocked with some sodas, water and ice.
make your pad work for you
Taking a girl to your place is always going to give you the advantage when you make your move. So ensure that once she passes through your doorway, she's stimulated in every room, not just in your bed.
