Dan Savage at University of Montana - The question: My ex-boyfriend and I never had sex once during our months long relationship. Every time we got close, he would get too anxious to follow through and back off whenever I would try to take control. It's too late now, but in the future if I am in this position again with someone I love, what's the best way to address someone's severe anxiety towards sex?


never had sex during months long relationship, he'd initiate and then back out.mov

  • @Rosethecomposer There's nothing wrong with asexuality, but in this case, the ex-boyfriend was initiating the sex, then not following through. A true asexual wouldn't be initiating at all. Asexual relationships are fine, as long as it's clear to both parties that sex is off the table. In this case, it wasn't, there were mixed signals.

  • @vegangirly Breaking up with somebody whit never wants sex is not rape.

    You are trivializing real rape.

  • @Rosethecomposer They should make clear what they are immeadiatly and only ge involved with people of the same orientation.

  • @JustABiff The boyfreinds who don't like sex...

  • What about asexuals?

  • Wowa dude. That sounds like abusive asshole possible rape talk...

  • Well... He sounded a little harsh on this topic. I think it's definitely something that shouldn't be withheld. But if he tells you, and it's an issue you can deal with or work with them on then you should stay with them if you think it's worth it. However, someone like me, I don't think I'd be very happy with someone who was uncomfortable with sex.

  • fair advice, no one should suffer being rejected all the time.

  • Who the fuck are the four who actually disliked this?

  • Fair and healthy advice.
