Giving Thanks for Sex; However…
It’s Thanksgiving, so let’s give thanks for sex. Not just the huffing and puffing, the in-ing and out-ing, the sloshing around and drying off.

Choose your sexual story carefully
Choose your sexual story carefully—because you’re going to live it. Humans find meaning and patterns in everything we do. So everyone develops stories about themselves—why they’re always (or never) late; how they’re terrible (or great) with numbers; how a stove is something they’ve never (or always) felt comfortable around.

Ask Me Anything
Q: How can I get my object of desire to love me? We have sex together, but she says she isn't ready to commit. What should I do?

She obviously isn't ready to commit, but she is interested enough to have sex periodically. If you can handle the emotional turmoil, allow things to continue as they are. If it is just too painful to have sex with her under these conditions (she might even have other sex partners), explain your difficulty to her and say goodbye.
