Home decor can make or break a potential relationship. Years ago, I had just started dating this guy I was really excited about. After a particularly great date and ample wine, we headed back to his place to consummate our budding relationship. The sex was amazing. However, in the light of day everything looked different. I emerged from the bedroom to find bongs on the coffee table, a set of haphazardly hung curtains adorned with the marijuana leaf motif and pizza boxes piled sky-high against the wood-panelled walls.
It seems that the combination of dim lighting, wine and orgasms from the night before had blinded me to the fact that this guy lived in the basement apartment version of the Jersey Shore house.
Think about it - even Dexter has a few throw pillows. Bedroom: If your sheets have seen better days or are god forbid stained - ditch them. Invest in some high thread count linens and keep them clean. Choose a bed that has ample room for two people and center it between two walls to facilitate sleep and sex.
Kitchen: Keep it clean! Crusty, dirty dishes piled up in the sink act as a bad omen of what we might find in your pants. A couple of quirky coffee mugs can be endearing, however invest in matching dishware.
