What's so romantic about a couples massage?

[serrano2008]

My wife always wants to get a couples massage as a special romantic thing on our anniversary and stuff. We did that last year, went to a B&B in a small resort town place, and it wasn't very relaxing. I guess it was fun to get massages, my wife and I in the same room, but I couldn't really relax so it wasn't very romantic or enjoyable. Any ideas?

1. both of you learn some massage basics

make your own world, make it romantic, dim the lights, light some aromatic candles, knead your tense knots out of each other's bodies, take pleasure in making your other feel good and vice versa?

2. I'm with you. Not a fan. I want to be alone when I get a massage.

3. You must be double or triple jointed

how else would one get an upper back massage if one were alone?
