I (F) feel guilty that I can’t orgasm with my boyfriend

I’m young and my boyfriend is the first person I’ve done ANYTHING with. I love him so much and he is incredibly patient, caring, and understanding with me as I learn about my body, too.

But since being with him, I’ve faked my orgasms because I felt like I couldn’t and that I was broken, and I wanted to make him feel happy and fulfilled. He approached me about it about a month ago and I felt awful, but he wasn’t mad at me. He just wants both of us to have a good time together. I love him so much and I feel so awful that I lied to him and let him down.

Now I’m trying to figure out my body and it’s so hard to orgasm with my fingers (I understand his pain now). I learned to orgasm by rubbing against a chair with my clothes on with some markers underneath. I think I rub too hard because I can’t get off when my boyfriend rubs me, fingers me, eats me out, etc. So I’m going cold turkey on the chair rubbing to see if I can gain some of that sensitivity back. I read things on here that said to try a vibrator, so I got one and I got off with it (I should add that he is very understanding about me getting a vibrator). It was exciting, so I tried again shortly after... and I couldn’t do it.

I just feel so terrible. I want him to feel fulfilled, and I want to know what feels good to me, but I can’t seem to get there too often. I don’t know what the point of this post is, but I want to tell someone who isn’t my boyfriend how awful I feel about this situation. Orgasming always feels so stressful and I feel expectation from MYSELF to get off with him.

With all of this said, he has told me that he still has a great time with me and that he has no expectation with our sex life. He is extremely patient while I am not. I want to please him just as much as he wants to please me. And our sex is great. I have a great time every time, it feels wonderful. He tells me not to worry about it, and I want to not worry about it so badly.

The difference between being right and being understood

My boyfriend and I are 28. We’ve been together for about 1.5 years and recently moved in together. He’s a pretty patient and easygoing person (Type B) whereas I’m more particular (Type A). Of course there are two sides to every trait, and my Type A nature benefits us in some ways too. Like all couples, we have differences in perspective or preference. When this happens, he will usually say something like “I disagree (with your perspective) but fine.” I tend to push the issue in an attempt to get him to understand where I’m coming from. This escalates the disagreement into a fight because he perceives it as me trying to be “right”. I truly just want to be understood (and I want to understand where he’s coming from) so I’m looking for more of a dialogue whereas he avoids conflict and just wants it to be over as quickly as possible. His general approach is “agree to disagree” but that doesn’t make sense to me when it’s an issue that will keep coming up and requires compromise. I’m n...

My (27f) gf (27f) is getting tired of me not sharing intimate/ personal info about me

I’ve always been extremely private and introverted. We have more than a year together and we’ve been living together for like 6 months, we get along pretty good and I’m really in love with her, however I can not seem to open up... and I can tell it’s frustrating to her by the way she tells me it bothers her that she feels she’s the only one committed and the one that’s always sharing... At this point I don’t even know if it is that I’ve gotten too used to it, to the point I’ve became lazy to talk about myself or give any genuine personal opinion... it sucks, really, I need to communicate better... Where do I start? Tl;dr: I can’t be completely intimate with my gf and its frustrating her, I need to communicate better because I really love her... where to start?

My (23M) girlfriend (25F) relationship is confusing to me. I might be the problem, or maybe we are just incompatible.

I met my girlfriend after a few serious breakups that led me to change both intentionally and unintentionally over a few years. For better and for worse. She had just gotten out of an engagement with a verbally and physically abusive man who had a cocaine problem. We have been together about 8 months now. We hit it off and spent a lot of time together but she began to push our relationship as if there were a time clock for milestones. I was pressed beyond my comfort zone and went with it because of my affection for her. My living situation fell apart and I lost a few thousand dollars to shit roommates right around the time she and I met and she offered to let me stay with her. I agreed with some resistance. I pay for food, help her with bills, and throw money toward rent while trying to get back on my feet. As long as we have been together she has gotten more possessive, angry, and irrational. She is dealing with shit from her engagement and I feel shes looking for a level of seriou...
