I’m a woman still sorta coming to terms with my sexuality and comfortable with sex in general so I find it hard to initiate without feeling shame or guilt. My partner does his best to reassure me but I still feel nasty when I try. Any advice?

Were you perhaps raised in a very religious household

I feel embarrassed when I try to hint that I’m in the mood too. I have a really high drive so I try to wait until the right time to send him signals but either he doesn’t get it or he simply doesn’t reciprocate, which ends up with me feeling rejected.

ik it’s been a minute but i’m the same way- luckily i had a therapist at the time of my first relationship. we dove into the rules i had in my brain & the imagined consequences. ex- if i let him touch me, then my family will think im a wh0re etc etc. that really helped bc i could work through the thought and see that they realistically would never know and nothing bad would happen

Lol how could you tell? Jk it’s very obvious. I’m doing my best to work through it.

I was in the same boat for a while lol I just remind myself that feeling guilty and shameful is what the old men who wrote all that shit down would want, and then my natural opposition to authority carries me the rest of the way
