What It's Really Like To Have Sex With An Aries
They love the chase.
Should you be lucky enough to find yourself in the position of having a sexual relationship with an Aries, knowing a thing or two about how to have great sex that keeps them satisfied will go a long, long way in your favor.
The first thing to know is that you should be prepared for a long, hard ride — both literally and figuratively. As lovers, the Rams' fiery personality traits make them the most relentless of all zodiac signs in astrology.
They are known for having particularly great stamina, and for Aries men and women alike, sex is a quest. They go at it wholeheartedly with gusto until both of you are sore (but only in the very best of ways).
An Aries will truly treat sex like a sport, and they won't be satisfied to remain a spectator.
Those born under the sign of Aries (between March 20 and April 20 of any given year) get off on both the challenge and the chase.
In fact, some may enjoy the pursuit and the conquest even more than the act of having sex itself.
As with everything else in their lives, the Aries lover knows what they want and when they want it, and they won't give up willingly until they get it.
Pursuit is the best kind of like foreplay for them.
If their prospective partners are equally aroused by being desired so intensely, that's great! And if not, this may cause huge problems.
After all, there's a fine line between being pursued and stalked ...
Although Aries has the capacity to be very devoted and loving, don't expect hearts, flowers and romance from them, at least not in the traditional sense.
For example, when prodded to say, “I love you,” a typical Aries response could be, "Of course, I love you ... or else I wouldn't be here!"
Get used to it. Aries are highly sensual, but very cut and dry about what they want and need.
Like the other barnyard animals in the zodiac (Capricorn and Taurus), Aries are lusty critters indeed, but more so for Aries because they have the added bonus of being fueled by the "combustibles" characteristic of being a Fire Sign. Aries are most satiated physically when the sex is spontaneous and unrestricted. Wild and uninhibited is their preference.
Remember, as the Evel Knievels among the sun signs, Aries are game for almost anything.
They're known to say that they'll try anything at least once; twice if they really like it. Because of this, it's not uncommon for those born under the sign of Aries to be bisexual, even if it's just occasionally.
I love to tell the story of an Aries friend who found himself in a peep show booth (see, there's that wonderful Aries sense of adventure). When the screen went up, there was a beautiful, bountiful Latina on the other side, who revealed "a Johnson bigger than mine." Instead of being put off by this minor technicality, my buddy made the best of the situation, focused on the bits he liked, and came away with not only a climax, but a hilarious, typically Aries escapade to regale with.
As they do in everyday life, Aries likes to take control in bed. They have an uncanny ability for calling the shots, even when they're on the bottom.
An Aries man can be perfectly content being ridden like a stallion for a time, but he'll somehow manage to take charge using his movements and words even from below, grabbing his partner's buttocks, urging them on, and so forth.
Likewise, the Aries woman is by no means submissive, even when in missionary position. Beneath her partner, she will move like a liquid fire, hips rising up to meet each thrust.
Although Aries tend to be very aggressive in bed, it's never tinged with violence, just super-intense.
Again, if you're expecting violins and rose-petals strewn on the sheets, you will be sadly disappointed.
But if you crave a spontaneous encounter in an alley that leaves you with your legs trembling, then look no further.
For Aries, their heads are their most erogenous zones.
They love it when you muss their hair or grab their face, and vice versa.
It's not uncommon for male Aries to grab a handful of your ponytail as they head down the homestretch. They usually give fantastic head rubs and will be yours forever if you give one in return.
And as for giving or getting "head," well ... that goes without saying.
Aries also tend to have extremely sensitive nipples, although many Aries males might be reluctant to admit this for fear it will make them seem feminine or vulnerable. But rest assured, big, strong Aries men have been known to get rock solid just from a little nipple play.
It's not uncommon for Aries women to have hyper-sensitive nipples and even be able to have orgasms solely from having their nipples stimulated in just the right way.
Simply put, the Aries mate is also very aroused by their partner's sex organs, so be prepared to be put in the spotlight and have your hotspots worshipped.
Adventurous and outrageous, that's what you can expect from Aries between the sheets. Don't be surprised if they spray-paint their pubes bright green just for fun.
Don't expect flowers, but do expect the ride of your life.
