I asked Laura to tell me specially about the problems she and Dave were having in the bedroom. One of Laura\u2019s main complaints was that Dave , a strong and athletic man , pinched her nipple tightly and constantly during intercourse . She told me that her nipples were quite sensitive and she didn\u2019t want them touched , at least not like that.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I asked Laura whether she had ever talked this over with Dave and told him what she liked and disliked sexually . She seemed shocked and protested,\u201d I shouldn\u2019t have to ! Don\u2019t you think he\u2019d get the idea after thirty years ? \u201d Laura saw herself as the victim of someone else \u2018s insensitivity .

All you have to do is encourage Laura to be more open with Dave. Encourage them to have some sessions together so they can talk about their sexual problems. Once she tells Dave where and how she likes to be touched , he\u2019ll probably respond differently . They both have a lot to gain and nothing to lose.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If that\u2019s what you are thinking , you took a page out of my book ! I encouraged Laura to bring Dave to the sessions for that precise reason. She agreed, with some reluctance, but warned me that she thought the situation was \u201dhopeless.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>After several sessions with them together , I got to know Dave. He agreed that something important was missing from their marriage. For years he had been troubled by Laur\u2019s dissatisfaction with him. He fely he wasn\u2019t sufficiently manly to excite her sexually , and told me with embarrassment how he\u2019d taken up long-distance running to try to build up his stamina. He was jogging over 60 miles a week and had competed in numerous marathons.He thought that if he became athletic , that might please her and turn her on.With tears in his eyes , he admitted that no matter how hard he woprked at it, he simply couldn\u2019t excite her. He felt like a real \u201d loser\u201d at sex.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I felt we were on the verge of a real breakthought , so I asked Laura if she\u2019d be willing to tell Dave about some of her sexual needs and feelings. I suggested she might tell him specifically what she liked and disliked about his lovemaking.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>There was a longe, tense moment of silence . Then Laura turned to me and said, \u201d Dr. Burns, you\u2019re just like Dave. You really don\u2019t understand I won\u2019t stand for this ridiculous conversation any longer ! She got up and bolted from the room .<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why did Laurs walk out instead of talking about the problem that we had agreed to discuss? One reason has to do with Laura\u2019s feelings of fear and mistrust. She may have never felt loved or loveable. She may have never learnt that it was possible to open with the people she cared about. She may have never discovered that although these problems can be painful at first, there can be a reward after you confront your fears and resolve the problem. She may not have believed that she and Dave could feel close as a result of working things through . Laura is much like someone with a severe phobia.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-wrapper jetpack-simple-payments-15732\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-product\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-product-image\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-image\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mind55555.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/musical-youth-author.dr_.fawzy-masaoud-1-1-2-1-1-1-2-2-1-1-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-2-1-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1.jpg?w=616&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-details\"><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-title\"><p>eBook For Sale<\/p><\/div><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-description\"><p>It is a detective comedy play book.\n\n After paying, you will receive your copy on your email on the same day.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-price\"><p>\u00a37.00<\/p><\/div><a class=\"jetpack-simple-payments-purchase\" href=\"https:\/\/psychotherapy-londons.com\/?p=15729\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to purchase.<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. David D Burns [ Psychologist, Lecturer in USA ] says , \u201d A woman from Cleveland named Laura told me what an insensitive lover her husband , Dave, she complained that she\u2019d never once experienced an orgasm in over thirty years of marriage .
