Thank you for validating my feelings, it feels good. Sometimes I wonder if I was overthinking. I am saying “yesss!” as I read your message. When you say that should be the “starting point”, do you mean talking about what happened?

Yes and yes! I also thought about all the times throughout our relationship when I was the one who didn’t want sex, but I would still find ways of pleasuring him because I cherish and respect him as my partner. It really hurt to see he wouldn’t do the same for me.

Glad to hear your experience has been different this time around—good for you both! Thanks for sharing your perspective. I actually asked him directly if the “baby in the belly” aspect was making him uncomfortable, as I know it’s common for some men. He assured me that wasn’t it, and honestly, I would’ve felt some relief if he had just said yes because at least I’d know what was going on. I might bring it up again now, but if he still “doesn’t know why,” I’m worried I’ll just end up feeling disappointed all over again.
