Your first night as a married couple after the wedding may be different from the way you imagine it.
Difficulty: Hard
Time Required: all night
Here's How:
Accept the fact that wedding nights are perfect only in the movies.
In most cases, you're either going to be exhausted from the wedding or totally wired.
Neither is the best state of mind for the best sex of your life.
So take the pressure off yourselves.
Shower and change into comfortable clothes.
If it feels right to you, and you still have out-of-town friends around, invite them to your honeymoon suite.
If that's the craziest advice you ever heard, ignore it.
Order room service.
After the food and drink arrive, slip the "do not disturb" sign on your door.
Share with each other the high points of the wedding, and what you remember most.
Present a small wedding night gift to each other (see below for ideas).
Arrange a wake-up call if you need to catch a flight.
Don't rush things. Start with a massage, perhaps.
If you don't plan on starting a family immediately, plan in advance for the birth control you'll use.
And if the sex isn't the greatest thing you ever experienced, don't fret. You've got a lifetime to perfect it.
Tips:
No children. Anywhere.
You'll remember this evening for the rest of your life, so make an effort to make it special.
Candles, a subtle fragrance, music you both love can enhance the occasion.
Even if you usually sleep in a T-shirt or naked, consider wearing something special to bed on this night.
Remember, it will NOT all be over in the morning

Love Questions
Is There Any Point in Dating If You Don't Have a Job?
Okoro wants to know, "I am currently not working, but am in between jobs, and looking. I've been wanting to do the online dating thing for some time now. I believe that to be the best vehicle for finding someone, but I don't think any woman would be interested in a guy without a job. So I have been holding out till I can secure a job. This is tough though because I am lonely and tired of not being in a relationship. Should I post the ad anyway taking the slim chance that there is a lady that would respond, or should I continue to hold out until I am employed (whenever that may be)?"
So readers, what do you think? I've added my two cents already. ) Would you try to meet someone if you didn't have a job, or would you date someone who was jobless? For those who have been in this position (single and without employment) what did you do?
What Do Teenage Boys Want in a Relationship?
Based on movies like American Pie, I'll hazard a guess that most people would immediately answer, "sex" to this question.
Is Living With the Parents a Turn Off?
Frank asks: "I'm not in school but I was recently and am saving money to return. I don't make much money and I don't have a rich family (well off and comfortable but not rich, I pay for my own school), so I'm pretty much stuck with them, unless I want to give up my educational and career dreams.
I consider myself to be independant in my endevors but when it comes to a place to live I don't really have much of a choice.
Would a girl of the same age or older take that as a turn off at all or is it sort of trivial? I know I wouldn't care if the person I was interested in lived with their parents but then I'm in that situation so I'm kind of biased."
So, what do you think? Does Hank living with his parents make him a less desirable date?
