The Art of Sexting

Since we've become so reliant and dependent on mobile devices, which allow us to text and avoid personal interactions, sexting has grown to become one of the largest ways of modern day flirting.  "Sexting is the act of sending sexually explicit messages and/or photographs, primarily between mobile phones or devices." -Wikipedia

Ultimately, sexting is the next evolution to phone sex.  While there isn't the same verbal interaction, people are able to turn each other on from anywhere and use their imagination to fulfill their sexual desires.

There are two main forms of sexting, one is text and the other is via pictures.  It's important to note also that if you're going to be sending pictures of yourself to someone you should either have an extremely trusting relationship or try to leave your head, or any recognizable things, out of the photo.

Teenagers have begun sexting which has caused a large amount of commotion over pictures being leaked and other information.  Phone apps such as "Snapchat", which allows you to take a picture that will be erased up to 8 seconds after the person opens it, has allowed for teenagers to exchange all sorts of photos and messages without any backlash.  It's important to sext responsibly!

Sexting is a great way to spice up a relationship or let someone know you're interested in them.  The goal of sexting is typically to encourage a future sexual interaction with the receiver.  It has helped maintain a sexual desire in busy relationships and is encouraged between couples.

The trick to sexting is to tease; you want to add in sexual intentions without being to forward or up front.  It's important to turn the person on and not creep them out.  I suggest adding some creative humor to compliment the sexual comments.  Be descriptive but don't include too much detail, let the person's imagination have a little fun.

Sexting can be sensual, romantic, and descriptive.  A good sext will hit on several of these areas.  Some people even use the "**hugs**" kind of approach and will sext something like **wrap my arms around you and kiss you slowly** in which the ** ** indicate an imaginary action that the two of you are participating in. 

Some good sexting examples can be found at http://sextingexamples.org/.  There are several examples of different approaches in the comments.

Now that you understand the background and basics it's time to test it out!

Happy sexting,
