I think that what matters in the end is that they are happy and fulfilled.

I don't want her to get worried for me or feel bad for me since it's everything going so well for her and she's very happy and satisfied. I'll work harder on fixing myself and if I don't succeed, at the very least get better at covering my issues.

  • If you do what you both enjoy and please each other and you should enjoy it very much. If that enjoyment isn't there, there are some underlying problems that need to be solved.

  • What do you feel bad about? It is an expression of love

    • I don't enjoy it, and sometimes I feel something bad will happen.

    • Hmm. I know what the bad-intuition feels like - if that is what you mean. You can try and follow that thought, fear included, to see what it is about - maybe it is about how you would raise a child that resulted from it. Or something you consider you'd lose if you did get tied down with that person (I guess your finacee). Are you feeling loyal to someone else instead on that level, and unhappy you are betraying them? Those are my best guesses - it doesn't mean it is that. I don't know if it would help you if you discovered the end-fear anyhow - the relationship advice tends to say you can talk things over with people, but for the deep seated wants and beliefs, I have so far not seen anyone who was willing to change their position one bit - in my case, they would hear it out, even understand it, but nothing would change (and so I am no longer in that relationship, even if it hurts leaving that otherwise good and committed person)

    • That's very good reasoning. I think that in my case it could be that I had a majority of bad experiences with sex, so it's always a big issue to relax and enjoy it. It happened with all women I frequented, although sometimes it gets better.

  • Hmm I don't know, odd question for a guy. Usually i thought y'all liked it more?

    I never feel bad because i really like it so I don't know really how to answer this

  • This sounds terrible to say but maybe you should drink before sex to destress. I've done this a few times and it works for me
