310: How do I initiate sex without coming off as demanding? (ft. me)

310: How do I initiate sex without coming off as demanding? (ft. me)

Author: Melanie Curtin May 24, 2024 Duration: 28:46

Sexy time, pickers, and dating, oh my! Here I answer the following three common client or listener questions:

  1. "I’ve heard women say it’s a red flag if the man has not had relationship experience. What do you say?" 
  2. "One issue I've had is selecting the right female partner. What is a good way to guide myself to go about doing this?" (My picker is off)
  3. "How do I initiate sex without coming off as demanding? I come from a relationship where I think I pressured her into sex, or I wrongly felt sex was owed to me … how can I now be bold in initiation without coming across as pressuring?"

I want to give a shoutout to the men who asked these questions. It's brave to put yourself out there and ask about what you really want to know.
