They say that necessity is the mother of invention, and certain situations require improvisations. We wholeheartedly agree. After all, when you have one cute guy, a whole lot of unresolved sexual tension, and a handy broom closet, what else would you do? Call it a day and wait for an opportunity when both of you are coincidentally in the same bedroom?

A quickie, by definition, is fast and perhaps a bit unforgiving. There are no candles, no mood music, and definitely no time to shave. Then again, romance isn’t exactly the point. Need more convincing? Here are a few tips that might help sway you.

1. Stop worrying about how you look.

Your man won’t have time to explore every inch of your body. He’ll strip you down as quickly as possible (maybe he won’t even get to remove everything), and get right on to the main event. He won’t mind that you haven’t shaved or that you’re wearing granny panties, so relax and let it happen.

2. Try it in different places.

If you and your man are feeling a bit adventurous (a potent aphrodisiac), try doing it someplace you’ve never done it before. By a secluded beach, in a hotel lobby bathroom, at your condo’s penthouse—doing it outside of your usual comfort zone will definitely intensify the experience tenfold.

3. Always practice safe sex.

Yes, yes, you can throw yourself in abandon, but not before slipping him a rubber. If you’re using oral contraceptives, and provided that you two are in a monogamous relationship, then you two should already have an agreement. But if you’re entering a broom closet with someone whose nocturnal activities you’re not 100 percent familiar with, we say be smart about it. Go safe or go home.
