3 Things I Would NEVER Do After Working As A Sex Therapist For 20 Years

Vanessa Marin, a sex therapist with 20 years of experience, shares three things she'd never do in a relationship: shame a partner for initiating sex, stop initiating as a test, or fake orgasms. Each one damages intimacy in ways that take years to undo.
Hey there, I'm Vanessa and here are.
Three things that I would never do in my relationship after 20 years of experience in the sex therapy field. 1.
I would never.
Shame my partner for initiating sex in a moment that I was not into it.
I know that when your.
Partner initiates.
Sometimes it can bring up shame.
Embarrassment, frustration if you really weren't into it in that moment.
But I know.
How vulnerable initiating can be and I never want my partner to feel bad for putting himself out there and asking.
2. I would never.
Stop initiating sex as a test to my partner.
If you're the higher.
Sex drive partner.
It may feel really frustrating that your.
Partner rarely or never seems to initiate sex.
And you might wonder if I stopped.
Initiating, would my partner ever even start it.
But tests like these never.
Work out for anybody.
Sex should.
Not be a mind game.
And the last thing that I would never do is fake.
An orgasm.
Like most women.
I have faked tons of orgasms in the past, so I understand and I.
Really sympathize with the.
Many reasons why we fake fake.
But nobody.
Wins when you fake. You have unsatisfying sex, your partner never.
Ends up learning what you like, and.
You only find yourself growing more and more resentful.
Let me know in the comments if.
Any of these surprised you.
