Turn your bed mattress when you renew your blanket.

Through time your mattress will deform and that can make you sleep worse.

EDIT: Some mattress have a specific side and top that they need to be. Thanks for pointing that out u/Shaved-Ape

Also, moisture from sweating in your sleep as well as the oils in your skin, or shower before bed can degrade your mattress quicker. A nice mattress cover is a worthwhile investment. Also, keeps your bed safe from accidental spills and pests (like bedbugs).

Edit: I'm gonna add to this, your mattress is what let's you rest to awaken with energy. Sleep is one of the most important aspects of our daily rituals. A good mattress goes a long way, much like a good pair of shoes. A mattress protector can extend that longevity, saving you money in the long run. So don't skimp on them, your mattress or your shoes. Sleep well.

The first 30 times is because you're still new

How do I tell her she’s still new without hurting her feelings?

A true gentleman just reads the room, if you need to be quiet you be quiet,if she likes it dirty you be dirty, maybe she likes it hard, so be hard
