Ask Men Intimacy
How do I say I want to try something new in bed?
Asked by Man, 25
I am afraid she will think I am unsatisfied. I am not. I am curious.
Men’s answer
From the men
Curiosity is not a complaint if you say so. Do not dump a list. Offer one thing, with an easy out: 'Would you ever want to try X? No is fine.' If you only bring it up when you are already resentful, it will sound like a verdict. Timing: clothed, not mid-act.
Women’s answer
From the women
We can hear curiosity. We cannot hear 'you are boring' dressed as a fantasy. Tell us it is additive. Let us say no without a sulk. If our no becomes a mood for days, we will never feel safe saying yes later. Safety is the whole erotic skill.
What to do next
One ask, one out, no campaign. If it is a no, thank her for the honesty.
