Talk ahead of time about your boundaries and preferences regarding sleep sex, just as you would discuss sex while intoxicated, or sex under other circumstances. If your partner is not comfortable with the idea, you have to respect that boundary, plain and simple. Check in the night before to see if your partner would be open to being woken up with sex the next morning or later that night.

No matter how red-hot your sex life is in the beginning of a relationship, it's bound to taper off at some point unless, of course, you two happen to be the luckiest couple on the entire planet. Everyone falls into sexual ruts, so what makes the difference is what you do once you get there. If you're ready to get inventive and perhaps venture out of your comfort zone, try waking up in the middle of the night and surprising your guy with some sex. Afternoon delight? It just got upgraded.
