How to Tell a Man That There's No Orgasm?

1. Talk about the problem immediately. Not after the first sex, of course. But if you confess to your man that you haven't experienced an orgasm for years, it will be too late... Your sex will enter a habitual rhythm, and it will be difficult to change anything drastically. Therefore, if you are certain that the lack of climax is a regular occurrence and not a one-time event, you should talk about it right away.

2. Formulate the phrases precisely. No fluff, introductory words, or figurative expressions – only precise formulations! Hints and evasion – that's what we women can and understand. Men, on the other hand, need clarity and specificity. 3. Give hints. Having discussed the most important thing – the absence of orgasm, it is worth discussing what you will do next. Explain to your partner that there are certain positions, types of sex, and types of stimulation that you like the most. These are your hints. 4. Choose the right partner. Well, this advice is elementary, it seems to us, but we think you already understood everything.

Poses for the Mood

If you're lacking romance. Maximum closeness can be achieved with a pose where the man sits and you're positioned on top facing him. You look into each other’s eyes, your breaths merge together. If you want maximum pleasure with minimal effort. Lie on your side and let him be behind you. In this pose, there is strong stimulation of the clitoris and the G-spot. If he wants sex and you want to sleep. Choose the missionary position, where you are required to do almost nothing.

Principles of Gentle Rejection in Sex

1. Clearly explain the reason. In the absence of information, the partner can come up with many hurtful reasons. Do not hide the truth. If you're tired from work, just say so. 2. Suggest another time: "Tonight I am terribly sleepy, but how about we make time for sex over the weekend?" Such a refusal is much easier to accept. Of course, this will require you to take responsibility next time. But this shows your partner that they are not the only one 'responsible for sex' in the relationship. 3. Do not distance yourself. Rejection becomes much worse if, after "no," the partner builds an invisible wall: since you have sex on your mind, don't even touch me! Discuss options for showing love and support to each other in other ways. Some may find comfort in hugs, some in personal conversations, and others in shared pleasant activities like walking.
