Q - Dear Annabelle,
I have been with my boyfriend for 6 months and we have an excellent relationship. But I seem very timid (sexually). I am unable to touch him w/out feeling embarrassed or ashamed. Why do I feel this way?What can I do to change that?
A - Dear Nichole,
You donāt say how old you are, but you are, (probably), responding, perhaps appropriately, to anxiety, stemming from parental directives, religious training, or deeply held personal beliefs. **Thereās a VERY GOOD REASON why sex is proscribed for unmarried people.** It is NOT merely recreational, something delightfully fun to do of an afternoon or evening. Sex is the #1 cause of babies........gee, really?? (Yes, and you might take a really good look at your behavior, because you are risking creating a new life here.)
If youāre *not ready for married life and motherhood*, either find another boyfriend, (because, once one has begun a sexual relationship, it is very difficult to stop), or find other, and ideally supervised, activities. Believe it or not, there are lots of ways to enjoy a young manās, or young womanās company that do NOT include getting naked and having sex.
