Re: Inspired by #1 - anxiety!
(Anonymous) 2023-07-23 02:30 am (UTC)(link)Like, okay, first off you have to be naked, which is awkward and weird and I always feel like my body language is off when I don't have clothing on, which just makes me more awkward and weird. Then there's the whole issue around communication - what if I suggest something the other person doesn't want and it makes it awkward? what if I talk too much or too little and make it awkward? what if the way I Do Sex is just weird? what if my body language is off and things go off from where I expect it? I mean, even if we decide to just Not it's not like I can just ditch, there's gonna be like 5 minutes of being awkward, even more if this is, like, an actual relationship.
Also, I fucking hate any kind of talking dirty, but I've found that a lot of people tend to not like just being silent during sex. So they'll be trying to do a thing, but like half the time that involves pointing something out about my body/body language/actions, and even if it's positive it's still just awkward because it's not like I can just smile and nod if I don't know what to say. They expect me to actually say something back, and I can't formulate a compliment that isn't extremely awkward to save my life. And if it isn't EXTREMELY explicitly positive I wind up second-guessing whether it was a compliment or them pointing out something awkward or what.
Sorry this is so long, I have a lot of thoughts about how weird and awkward and anxiety-inducing sex is :/
