How to Properly Prepare for an Intimate Encounter: Ten Essential Tips

Intimate encounters are those moments in our lives that are generally private. These moments sometimes seem to almost exist in another world. As if they were something we watch from a distance and sometimes remember later with a little smile. It's all very secret and sometimes quite delicious. But what do we do to prepare for such moments? You might be someone whose been married for many years. Or you might be someone who is still very young and is still learning the dance. Regardless, there are things that anyone and everyone should consider before engaging in an intimate encounter. Man or woman, it doesn't matter. Because intimate encounters by definition involve another person and as such involve some degree of consideration of their role. Below are ten essential tips to help properly prepare for an intimate encounter.

1 - Hygiene. First and foremost, because an intimate encounter will almost certainly involve physical closeness and generally much more, getting yourself as clean as possible beforehand is essential. Obviously the degree of cleanliness you can achieve will depend upon the amount of notice you have before the encounter is to occur. If you can, though, shower. Wash your hair. Be sure to concentrate on the genital areas as these are likely to become involved. If you don't have time for a shower you might consider cleaning with a wet towel, or if you're European and female, try using a bidet. This is just as important for men as it is for women. Being clean is fresh. It's attractive and allows closeness without the discomfort of unpleasant odors. If you don't have time for a wash with a towel, at leas try to give yourself a once over. Few things are less intrusive than bits of paper or other debris from using the toilet. In addition to your private parts, consider your breath. Brushing your teeth is always a good idea. So is chewing some gum. Do whatever is possible and reasonable given the circumstances, especially if it's been awhile since you've had a moment to give your mouth proper attention, or worse, if you've eaten something that will cause discomfort to others.
