Dear Michael: My boyfriend is convinced he is great in bed and that he is the best lover I have ever had. The problem is that while he is extremely talented at the technical process of physically giving me an orgasm, he never does anything else.
When we decide to have sex (about once every two or three weeks, which is not nearly enough for me), we either just have intercourse without foreplay and no climax for me or he gives me an orgasm through manual stimulation.
It’s all very clinical, not at all sexy. He doesn’t even want to have sex afterwards, he simply congratulates himself on how good he is in bed.
I have tried to explain that I need a little foreplay, that I miss the seduction, the touching, and the excitement that he gave me at the beginning of our relationship. I have even shown him, on his body, what I would like him to do to mine.
