I dont know what to do! Me and my husbands body dont mesh well at all.

To cutt a long story short i was a virgin but my husband wasnt when we met but decided to abstain from sex before marriage. After marriage our bodies never meshed well, its always awkward and uncomfortable with eachother, i cant get comfortable with him and hes shit at forplay, most of the times im not even wet when he tries having sex with me. Its been 5 years and i havent orgasmed once. I feel like we have shit sexual chemistry and its starting to depress me. Its put me off sex. Anytime i really want to have sex he does something that just turns me off. Im very vocal so ive told him what not to do but he doesnt listen. We hardly have sex. I feel like ive missed out on so much

Have you tried fully communicating with him, like not only expressing yourself, but listening to his experience with it as well? My partner and I are very open with each other outside and in the bedroom alike. It feels really good to be on the same page and discover what we love together.

You have to sit down and have a deep conversation about what you like in bed (potentially more foreplay and how) and what he likes and try to do both. My husband was basically a virgin when we met and had no idea what to do so I had to basically teach him what I liked and how to do it. That helped us so much and now 10 years later he is amazing at making me orgasm, but did take about half that time to get here lol

Does he think your sex life is good? Or does he see the issues also?

Have you used a wand during sex? It helps a lot if your partner isnt overly talented in that way but great with other things

If you’re not having orgasms then intro a wand or bullet so you CAN cum. I cum nearly every time unless it’s a quickie in the ensuite or car or shower sex, but if it’s bed sex I usually cum, sometimes I grab my wand. If things aren’t going great there’s no shame in adding a wand or a vibrating cock ring or something. Try you giving him a massage or him giving you a massage and slowly going into the thighs and the hotspots. The buildup is what’s erotic so by the time he enters after all that foreplay it’s so much relief. I’d recommend watching Sexlife on Netflix. It’s about a mum who’s lost herself in marriage. I just finished it w my hubby.

I’m sorry to say this, but if you’re as vocal about this as you claim & your hubs is still claiming y’all’s sex life is “good”, then you called it, he’s trying to convince you & that’s really mean of him to do & personally, I go so far as to say he’s being a selfish lover & he’s really lucky that this hasn’t already overflowed into the way you view him as a person overall. No, sex isn’t everything, not even by a long shot, but the sex you have with the person you’re supposed to love most in this world should reflect that love & commitment. It’s not healthy to be having dry sex, so I’d start shutting that down with a simple “I’m not ready yet, I need more stimulation to get wet”, maybe this can be where you start taking the lead & push that head where it needs to go & do the guiding. The more you get into it the more he should be turned on too, it’s super thrilling to turn on your partner when you know they feel the same, but you’re hubs doesn’t know this yet, you’ve figured it out w/o

Most women have not experienced an orgasm so don’t feel bad nor put it all on him.
Are u able to make urself orgasm without clitoral stimulation? If the answer is no then u can’t put it all on him. U need to learn ur own body first.
And Yup having dry sex is a big no! The more u have sex when u don’t crave it or enjoy it the less ur gonna want it or the worse ur sexual relationship with ur partner is gonna be.
Sex starts before the bedroom. Therefore make sure he is stimulating ur other senses , for example make sure u pay attention to what ur not liking about him outside of the bedroom.
Does he smell? Does he brush his teeth? Is he too heavy on u? Do u like how he talks to u? Etc

Also help his confidence up a bit it will make him feel better about himself and give u some good D. A man that works out feels good has confidence and has good testosterone maybe he needs to hit the gym or some hobbies he enjoys. Help him feel like the man

i ended up sitting him down and having a conversation with him about this but he didnt take it well. He became defensive and took it as a personal attack and then some how turned it into how hes not going to stay quiet anymore when i do something he doesnt like (but he meant it in a general sense and not related to sex) so i have no idea whre to go from here. It was a very uncomfortable conversation and it felt like it was going no where and falling on deaf ears.

I'm so sorry... that's really immature. That's not how he should have taken it, and he should have listened and tried to be open to try what you need and learn what pleases you... I hope he can calm down and come back to this conversation. It sounded like you said he's great outside of sex so hopefully he just didn't know how to express how he felt about it and will come back to and try.

It does somewhat sound like an avoidant personality. Fear of letting people down or rejection can make them avoid difficult things/conversations. I just had to do a case study on it as I'm in school for psychology. I'm so sorry he is being like this. It may be worth it to bring up with your own therapist if you have one how to best go about this if he does have an avoidant personality

6 year old says he hates me

I was putting my son to bed after a nice day together, and he just came out with it. 10 minutes prior he said ‘ I love you mummy’ then he said ‘I hate you but you’re part of my family’ 🫠 His little sister gets a lot of my attention and my patience isn’t where it used to be, but this has just really thrown me!!! He’s a daddies boy and maybe our connection has slipped a little because of our daughter. Any advice?

Annoyed with nursery

Please hear me out as I am fully understanding of policies. My son has been going to nursery since June and after a long period settling in now really enjoys it. On Monday I sent him in and mentioned he had 2 teeth breaking through (1 being a molar) causing him a dribble rash. Within 15mins of leaving and still driving I get a call and eventually a few hours later was asked to pick him up. Nursery were adamant it was HFM (despite no other symptoms) and he was not allowed back for 3 days. Checked by a dr who has confirmed it is not HFM. He has not been in nursery all of this week, the longest he’s not been. I’ve had to take unpaid leave from my work and my husband a days holiday to allow me to work a few hours. We still have to pay over £160 this month including the missed days. I wouldn’t be annoyed if this was the 1st time. However last month we sent him in fine, 15mins later had a call to pick him up as he was ‘poorly’. He wasn’t. last month we paid over £140 including a missed day. It’s not even like they’re giving it a few hours, I’m being rung within minutes having sent my child in perfectly well. I wouldn’t if he wasn’t well and would be more understanding if he had been in for say 3+ hours. I can’t afford to keep having unpaid days off work or to be paying nursery fees when he isn’t in and it defeats the whole point of why we’ve opted for childcare if I can’t work

Being cheated on for like the 8 million time

Why is it so easy for him to cheat? Why does he do it? What do I do that is so difficult for him to love me and our almost 3 month old daughter? All I know is I need to break the cycle I’m done! I rather be a single mom and struggle than deal with this all over! My self esteem is gone! Self respect in myself gone I continues forgive and forgive and forgive just to be cheated on again I just want a good man that is loyal 🙄😟😞done

Parking

Can someone tell me if I’m in the wrong as I’m feeling really guilty! I have just been shopping, was parked in a child and parent space and as we came out of the shop my little man decided he was hungry, so instead of waiting the 30 mins to drive home, I sat in the back and fed him, when I got out, another mum started shouting at me that I was ‘inconsiderate’ as other people needed a space. Admittedly all the other parent and child spaces were taken. Am I in the wrong?

Im so exhausted

Sorry this is long. I have a 5 year old. Shes wonderful. Extremely smart, funny, silly, and very creative. We will be in the process of testing for gifted. She complained about school because as she said she didn't use her brain. She wasnt challenged. The teacher gave us little readers to read at home. Now shes doing 'decodable' books. (It usually has a reading rule in it. Last week was ch and it talked about chess). So thats her homework. The other kindergarteners homework is doing letters and sounds, numbers and sight words. Hers is the book and like 8 flashcards of different reading rules (ch, sl,gr, gh, ph, -nt, -nd, etc). So nothing too crazy. They are doing 1st grade reading with her and another kid and reading the decodable at school with a para. They all say she does great and never complains and tries and does amazing. Well we get home and get to homework and its constant crying and fussing and 'i cant sound it out! I dont know that word! I dont know what it says'. Today it was just she didn't want to. I said when you are ready we will read and i sat there. She started hitting me, kicking me, and then punching me which is new. I ignored it all otherwise I would've lost my shit. I said why are you doing this. It's not okay to hurt people. Then dad got home and he said he won't tolerate her hurting his wife and now she gets to do her homework with him. She cried for a few minutes while I went outside for 5 minutes. Came back in and she was done. Like wtf?!
We are in behavioral therapy and idk what to do anymore. When shes in that state thers no talking about feelings or anything. I just sit with her while she runs through it. Im just tired of being abused by a 5 year old but idk what to do anymore.
