“I’ve can't orgasm with my long-term partner": therapists advise

positive

<p>“I have been with my partner for three years now, and although I love him deeply, I have never been able to orgasm when we have sex. At first, I found the sex we were having really enjoyable, although I still couldn’t orgasm, but over time I’ve begun to feel a bit bored by it. I also think I’ve become increasingly distracted during sex, worrying that there is something wrong with me. None of my friends have this problem. I sometimes used to be able to orgasm with a partner, although not often. It’s become a real point of tension in the relationship because my partner feels like he’s doing something wrong and gets insecure when I try to bring it up. I have sort of resigned myself to the fact I can’t orgasm and just focus on the bits I do like, and making sure he’s having a good time. But I want to fix it.”
