BREAKDOWN

I want to break up with my girlfriend, but I don't want to hurt her feelings. How should I do it?

--Tim, Phoenix, AZ

That's easy--sleep with her sister. Just kidding. Simply follow these rules.

1. Always make sure she's the first to know--like before you write a letter to a national men's magazine.

2. Do it in person and forewarn her with the classic "We need to talk" line.

3. Do it in private. She needs to cry, for closure's sake.

4. Avoid cliches--it isn't you, it's her. Be honest so she won't wonder why.

WET AND WILD

My new girlfriend seems dry downstairs. Is it something I did (or didn't do)?

It could be that she's naturally drier and needs a little extra--and more effective--foreplay. There's also a chance she's dehydrated. That can occur after drinking a lot of booze, not uncommon for nervous new couples. Try laying off the liquor and doubling foreplay time. Lube can help you with those foreplay minutes. Massage it onto her breasts and stomach, or make a well of lube in her navel, dip your finger into it, and slowly trace it down and across her lady garden.

HO, HO, HO!

What sexy gift can I get my girl for Christmas?

--Wilson, Merrick, NY

Don't get her a gift that's sexy for you but annoying for her. "Darling, I bought you this edible chocolate body paint" sounds like "Spread this goo all over me and lick it off while I watch the game." Instead, buy her a set of handcuffs. Let her know you plan to use them by lavishing hours of unadulterated attention on her. It'll be a merry triple-Xmas indeed.
