Don't Tell Him...
Your mother may have told you that honesty is the best policy, but in this case, many experts advise keeping your mouth shut. "If it really was just one indiscretion, don't tell him," says psychologist Marcella Bakur Weiner, PhD, author of Cheaters. "Although it might make you feel better, it will only hurt him and ruin the trust between you."
...Or Anyone Else
Even if the guilt is killing you, let it be your burden to bear. And don't tell other people either or you increase the possibility of his finding out.
Examine Your Motives
When a woman cheats, even just once, there's usually a problem in her relationship. "Women often stray if their sex lives are stagnant or they're feeling neglected," says Ruth Houston, author of

Keep It to Yourself
Until a guy says he wants to be exclusive (and you feel the same way), you have the right to play the field. For all you know, he's doing the same thing. Until you have The Talk, there's no reason to tell him you're seeing someone else.
Be a Little Cagey
In order to make a good decision, you need to be able to do your own thing. So don't tell either guy where you are all the time. If they're clued in to what you're doing 24/7, it's going to be harder for you to have the space you need to decide on one.

You Feel Like You Have the Flu
...Or at least a low-level one. What's up with that? Early in a pregnancy, some women feel nauseous all the time, have a higher body temp, and feel wiped out all the time-just like you do when you have the flu.
Your Boobs Change
Early on in a pregnancy, your boobs grow rapidly-they can increase by a full cup size or more-because they're storing fat and the milk glands are increasing in size. They also feel tender.

Make It Pop
When you're giving him oral, slowly slide your mouth all the way down to the base of his penis (use your hand as a mouth extension if you need some assistance). Then, make a vacuum suction with your mouth as you slowwwwly drag yourself back up. Once you get to the head of his penis, release it from your mouth with a popping noise. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat...
Press the Million-Dollar Point
His perineum (the spot between his balls and butt) is packed with nerves-and if you press on it, you'll give him waves of pleasure. Ride him in reverse cowgirl, so he gets the great visual of your booty and you get to keep an eye on his boys. Watch for his testicles to begin to rise-a sign that he's about to climax-then lick your fingers and press on

Go on a Food Crawl
Pick a spot in your neighborhood or someplace nearby that has a ton of restaurants (little, less trendy ones are the best). Start at one end of the area and work your way to the other, splitting apps, entrees, and desserts along the way.
Take Them Tubing
Hit up your local body of water for lazy river tubing. Most places will rent you a tube per person for a small fee, plus a cooler that you can pack with beer and food, and drop you at the top of a river. You and your couple friends can slowly float downstream while enjoying cold ones in a gorgeous setting.

Drink Up
It's a myth that guzzling lots of water makes you bloated. In fact, not hydrating often enough causes you to retain water underneath the skin's surface, giving you a puffy look. For the next 72 hours, cut out diuretics like caffeine and alcohol and sip six to eight glasses of H2O a day. Not only will you appear slimmer, you'll seem more toned, because your body will create a reserve of water below your muscles, pressing them out and adding definition.

By Molly Triffin
"What do you want me to do to you?"
Asking him what he needs from you proves you're open to changing things up. Also, if you're talking dirty for the first time with your guy, this phrase is a good way to ease into conversation and gauge how naughty he's ready to get.
"You're an amazing kisser."
Not only will this deepen intimacy during foreplay, but since guys are performance-oriented, positive feedback emboldens him, heightening his arousal.
"Your arms are so sexy."
Unlike women, guys don't often receive physical compliments, so telling him what you love about his bod is a powerful ego boost-and aphrodisiac.
