A simple enough premise, but one i'm sure makes a smidge of contention in the real world.

I don't mean to ask for lurid details about things, where the guesses will be left to us to interpret your own take on some fantastic voyage ... i mean more to ask if you find yourself attentive and capable in circumstances that don't exclusively deal with someone whom you've developed a necessary tactile and emotional rapport with.

Please refrain from any particular vulgarity, if you would.

i mean more to ask if you find yourself attentive and capable in circumstances that don't exclusively deal with someone whom you've developed a necessary tactile and emotional rapport with.


Is it just me that feels that this is some form of job interview for a part in a threesome?

-makes obligatory wife joke-

Ask your wife how good of a lover I am! ;)

Is it just me that feels that this is some form of job interview for a part in a threesome?
I'm not averse to that in some circumstances, but i roll just a little different usually. 'sides, i'm pimping for Laerod currently. :)
*sigcheck*

Ask your wife how good of a lover I am! ;)She said you were a much better crier. *consoles*

She said you were a much better crier. *consoles*

ouch. That explains me still being a virgin then. >.<

ouch. That explains me still being a virgin then. >.<
Depends on your definition of "virgin", doesn't it?
And she corrected me ... she meant "yelper" instead of "crier" *shrug*
Seriously though - for you specifically - on your wedding night (or whenever you get your cherry popped), how prepared do you think you'll be for that? (not a trap)

Well, no wedding happening for me any time soon. So who needs to worry about that? I have to get a girl to like me first. Every time I think that happens, its a big let down..


But in the case of marriage, I likely will marry someone who is sort of like me, so it won't matter too much about how many times I make her orgasm or whatever, but rather the fact that we get to share intimacy together.

I have to get a girl to like me first. Every time I think that happens, its a big let down..Well, you should try just being you. Integrity is something that women are attracted to ... composure ... confidence. And if you're being you when they perceive it, you are myriad times better off. If it takes a while, it's still worth it.
I likely will marry someone who is sort of like me, so it won't matter too much about how many times I make her orgasm or whatever, but rather the fact that we get to share intimacy together.Like bunnies you mean? :)

Nope. :)

Hmm, who wants to sleep with me and report on their findings?

Females, who were born a female, and still is a female please form a line.

The kinkier the better BTW. :)

Nope. :)
I find that dubious.
Is this an issue of experience, or lack thereof?

YOUR assessment. Not your 1-900 listings and Penthouse Forum letters. Sheesh. :p

I find that dubious.

Guh? Surely there must be bad lovers out there, no? :p

Is this an issue of experience, or lack thereof?

An educated guess. ;)

Guh? Surely there must be bad lovers out there, no? :p Yes, 'tis certainly true, for which i at one point myself qualified. If this is a case of honesty, i commend you for it. *bows*

An educated guess. ;)Would that mean you've given up on it as a skill/pursuit/interest?

Would that mean you've given up on it as a skill/pursuit/interest?

Never had it in mind to begin with, at least in any concrete way. The older I got, the less I thought about it, until the impulse left completely. No regrets, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone for whom it isn't a natural inclination. :p

Hmm, I hope that I am.

I'm generally really open-minded. I -think- I'm normally up for sex whenever...its wanted. I like to engage in my lover's fantasies - making him happy makes me happy. Umm, I wish I was better than I am. I don't know, perhaps it's just insecurity, but perhaps Rotovia knows if I'm a good lover, haha.

Well, I'm incapable of feeling the emotion "love", therefore I must be a bad lover. Or are we talking about something else...?

Yes and no. It would depend on what the person I'm with wants.

You really need to talk to Charlotte York..

if sticking it in her pooper and calling it an accident is good then yes :)

I certainly get enough and all women do talk so this can only mean:

A) I have a massive penis
B) I have a massive wallet
C) I'm a rapist

this seems to discredit the above no? maybe you should lower your standards :p

That sounds like you're in for a lot more big let-downs in the future...

Never had any complaints, so I can't be all bad I guess.
Apparently some of my... techniques are quite breathtaking ;)

Both of course, age and practice reaps it's own rewards. Do you know anybody approaching the age of 40 that is shit in bed?

Best advice on how to please a woman comes from Sam Kinison:

"Lick the alphabet. It makes you appear creative, it's an easy diagram to remember, it's like 'aaaaa.... beeeee.... ceeee.' She's think you're from fuckin' Europe or somethin: 'OH GOD, WHERE'D YOU LEARN THAT, OHHH,' and you're going 'A, B, C, D, E, F, G.'"

I consider myself a good lover, but that's a question that only my fiançé can answer truthfully. So, when he decides to restore his friggin' nation, I'll tell him to check this thread.:p

I don't know, to be perfectly honest. My one experience was a few years ago and I haven't really had any experience since. I'd like to THINK I would be, since I'm quite attentive and affectionate and whatnot, but I couldn't tell you without some more experience. (Experience I'm not likely to get any time soon.)

so it won't matter too much about how many times I make her orgasm or whatever.

So you think...

Well I could answer directly but why take my word for it? PB&J may be floating around here somewhere... ;)

Hmm, who wants to sleep with me and report on their findings?

Females, who were born a female, and still is a female please form a line.

That's rather contradictory. Erotic is when you use a feather - kinky is when you're fucking the chicken.

Decent skill and good focus - but stamina is not up to the desired level yet.

All I know is that I've gotten very good reviews in the past.


(...and, let's be honest, my particular sexual proclivities seem to be pretty popular with prospective partners. Very few guys are too horribly upset by the idea of a partner who genuinely cares much more about their pleasure than hers, and who explicitly offers to obey their every command. Funny, that. ;) )

so...how YOU doin?

I dont know if I'm a good lover or not! I started back in the 70s, but I'm not done yet. Let me get back to you on this.
:p

How did I know that you'd reply to that post? :p

Really, the ones giving reviews about our 'goodness' or 'badness' as lovers should be the ones we've actually tumbled around with.

NSG testimonials!

I guess this is where I come in.

Neesika is amazing in bed, on the floor, rack or in back seat of the car as the case may be.

She is sexy, enthusiastic, talented and loves to please. She doesn't fail in that either.

Plus she has boundless sexual energy which can really wear a couple like my wife and I out. Several times a night and the mornings after as well for a week straight can make for a very sore but permagrinning SB.

Buahahahahaha, talk about timing :p

Buahahahahaha, talk about timing :p

:D:cool:

I forgot to mention that all of the scratches and bruises Neesika left with shows that she means business. :p

Yes I am, but the real question is just what kind of diseased filthy lying whore is worthy enough to find out?

The world doesn't need more torture porn. It really doesn't.

Sorry, the preceeding was disturbing and definitely undoing the sexy in this thread.

Sumamba Buwhan and his wife are fantastic lovers! His wife is sadistic and rough and beat the hell out of me to my great enjoyment. I left each time with the imprint of her nails all over my back, not to mention huge bruises everywhere. SB is...very enjoyably girthed and wonderfully skilled. Filthy minds, the both of them! Poor innocent me...corrupted by that perverted Vegas couple...

I wasn't surprised that I could dish out the joy to two beautiful women with lots of sexual energy, but I was surprised I could continue to do it all week for both of your visits to Vegas.

Yeah, it was nice feasting on your innocence you fucking liar.

Some have said so.

I read this today:

'We live in a culture that teaches women how to be sexy but not how to have good sex,' says Sharkey. 'The whole mainstreaming of porn means that a lot of young women see sex as a performance, not as an experience that you share with another person that feels good for both of you.'

http://lifeandhealth.guardian.co.uk/relationships/story/0,,2283685,00.html

which sums up most of my sexual experience. I would say that in the past I put on a great performance, judging from the feedback I got, but now I'm finally in a genuinely loving relationship with someone I trust, I'm learning how to enjoy sex :)

Some have said so.

And why would anyone answer
"No" ?

It would be like saying, "how big is your dick?"

and some guy posting, "well, it's about 2 inches long when fully erect, and about the diameter of a threepenny nail..."

I wouldn't know.

I wouldn't know.

The only honest answer in the thread.

The only honest answer in the thread.

Yay! Do I get a prize?

somebody already answered 'no'

my answer about Neesika was honest. She truly is a sexy beast. I don't know if her review of me was honest. She probably just wants more of my wifes beatings.

Well, you and Neesika are self-referencing, so at least we have some corroboration. To be fair, we vote for your wife as sexiest.

I can't argue with that

If you did she'd just leave you for Neesika ;)

We did have a penis-size thread here a while ago, and somebody posted "I have a micropenis" which drew the response, "Thank you for sharing."

I love to make love, yes. I try to learn. My partner's pleasure is paramount. I'm not too fussed about myself, comparatively; though it's always nice to get as well as give a little love. :D

I've never had any complaints. :p

or beat me

Yeah, but you'd like that :P

Yeah, but you'd like that :P

hehe, she wishes - that's why Neesika took such a beating, because the wife had all this pent up sadism that she couldn't take out on me. :D

hehe, she wishes - that's why Neesika took such a beating, because the wife had all this pent up sadism that she couldn't take out on me. :D

OIC. Everyone has their niche, I guess.

I have never heard anyone complain. That doesn't mean that they didn't complain. Long story short, I'm good enough.

I have never heard anyone complain. That doesn't mean that they didn't complain. Long story short, I'm good enough.

Of course if you count the ones that don't call back... :D


I like the "I'm good enough" line. I'm going to have use that one.

Of course if you count the ones that don't call back... :D


I like the "I'm good enough" line. I'm going to have use that one.

Me too. I get really tired of both braggarts and people who seem to pride themselves on being clueless. This is not rocket science. I am as good or as bad as the person I'm with, since the act is nominally mutual.

Never had it in mind to begin with, at least in any concrete way. The older I got, the less I thought about it, until the impulse left completely.So, in other words, you're a zombie. Gotcha. :D
No regrets, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone for whom it isn't a natural inclination. :pAgreed, actually - it's just really hard for me to relate to people as being asexual (at this point in my travels)

Hmm, I hope that I am.

I'm generally really open-minded. I -think- I'm normally up for sex whenever...its wanted. I like to engage in my lover's fantasies - making him happy makes me happy.And now, most assuredly, a few more posters have opened their minds up a bit more. ;)
Umm, I wish I was better than I am.This is kind of what i'm angling at in this thread. If you don't mind me asking, how could you see yourself as "better"? The looks and personality you've expressed here make you one of the sexiest posters we've ever had here, IMNSHO, which makes it that much more curious about what different you would do, in your own mind, about how you felt you were as a lover.
I'll I don't know, perhaps it's just insecurity, but perhaps Rotovia knows if I'm a good lover, haha.I really really really REALLY really doubt he's got any complaints. Legitimate ones at least. :p

if sticking it in her pooper and calling it an accident is good then yes :)
...that issue of having to call something an "accident" pretty much answers the question.
<.<
>.>

Both of course, age and practice reaps it's own rewards. Do you know anybody approaching the age of 40 that is shit in bed?
Next time i lay someone getting up there, which doesn't appear all that soon, i can corroborate. Alas .... :)
Your first statement is very true.

Agreed, actually - it's just really hard for me to relate to people as being asexual (at this point in my travels)

I can't really imagine it either - being asexual by nature, that is. I can assure you, though, that even a perfectly normal libido can/will diminish and ultimately dissipate over a long enough timespan and under the right conditions. :p

You're ALREADY a god, a poll option, and a nightmare pinnacle. I guess it was a given that you'd give good advice about what to do with your mouth as well.
Two things - one, as i was away from my computer today, working (or something like it), it came to me that it would be you posting this. And it came to pass.
And two, i surely heard a strange news story today that helped convince me i wasn't making up the idea that you'd post this. When i find it i'll post it.

I consider myself a good lover, but that's a question that only my fiançé can answer truthfully. .... and no one ELSE would? :confused:

Well I could answer directly but why take my word for it? PB&J may be floating around here somewhere... ;)
This would be the inverse case of Amor Pulchritudo's point, i think.
What if the situation is that, certainly, PB&J sees you as a good (whatever positive description fits) lover, where you don't see yourself as such for what reason?

Decent skill and good focus - but stamina is not up to the desired level yet.
"Good" in context of competency, it would appear.

All I know is that I've gotten very good reviews in the past.


(...and, let's be honest, my particular sexual proclivities seem to be pretty popular with prospective partners. Very few guys are too horribly upset by the idea of a partner who genuinely cares much more about their pleasure than hers, and who explicitly offers to obey their every command. Funny, that. ;) )It most certainly would make you popular ... does it make you fulfilled (no pun intended)?

I dont know if I'm a good lover or not!Is there a quota in mind?
I started back in the 70s, but I'm not done yet.THAT's the spirit! *mega-BOW*
Let me get back to you on this.
:pWe'll be waiting, to take notes. :)

I get good feedback.

I think my husband is lightyears ahead of me in technique than I am, but I'll practice until perfect. :D

Yes I am, but the real question is just what kind of diseased filthy lying whore is worthy enough to find out?As much as i really, really REALLY want to use this as the Ifreann thread receiver *rest his unholy NSNation :( *, i will have to suffice with
totally sigworthy.

I get good feedback.Common feedback is monosyllabic.
POLYsyllabic is the "good category". Have you started coining new uses for Klingon? Like when he yells, "nuqDaq Dochvan vllan? Ha'DlbaH! tugh! I'm gonna baH! Qom .... .. Qapla! blleSnlS."

Nothing to be ashamed of. :)

It would be like saying, "how big is your dick?"

and some guy posting, "well, it's about 2 inches long when fully erect, and about the diameter of a threepenny nail..."Meh, it's the net. Some people don't have any problem posting those kinds of responses.
<.<

Well, I'm a knowledgeable lover. :p

Am I good? I'll ask my SO and report back; he's the only one who'd know. Personally, I'd say he's better than I, if only because I had a heck of a lot of book knowledge and a lot less practical experience until time and comfort levels allowed me to explore, whereas he had no qualms right from the beginning. Plus, I'm a pretty good teacher. ;) And it's very obvious when he's doing something right, so he learnt very quickly.

Mostly, I think we've both come a long way... but as I said earlier, I'll have to ask, since I can't really answer for myself.

I can't really imagine it either - being asexual by nature, that is. I can assure you, though, that even a perfectly normal libido can/will diminish and ultimately dissipate over a long enough timespan and under the right conditions. :pQuite true. Makes me laugh, since i just caught "The Bucket List" the night before last ....
Never pass up a bathroom, never waste a hard-on, and never trust a fart.

You're ALREADY a god, a poll option, and a nightmare pinnacle. I guess it was a given that you'd give good advice about what to do with your mouth as well.

And two, i surely heard a strange news story today that helped convince me i wasn't making up the idea that you'd post this. When i find it i'll post it.

If it's an article about that Ronald McDonald statue painted to look naked and placed in an erotic pose with a Grimace statue, they never proved I had anything to do with it!

Am I good? I'll ask my SO and report back; he's the only one who'd know.Hmmm ... i suspect, actually, that in asking him you'll get more answers and really won't be in much of a hurry to report back ... "report" ... ;)
a sharp explosive sound (especially the sound of a gun firing); "they heard a violent report followed by silence"
I had a heck of a lot of book knowledge and a lot less practical experience until time and comfort levels allowed me to explore... sounds like an internet success story.
he had no qualms right from the beginning.As i understand you, this surprises me not in the slightest, and i also suspect it's not the first time people've felt that way about you.
Plus, I'm a pretty good teacher. ;)Again, there be apt pupils here. Not just Smunk.
And it's very obvious when he's doing something right, so he learnt very quickly.Must be a polysyllabic thing.

Mostly, I think we've both come a long way... ... pun noted.

As i understand you, this surprises me not in the slightest, and i also suspect it's not the first time people've felt that way about you.

Stop trying to make me blush. :p

Hehe.

So, a little birdie told me you wanted to ask me something. Shoot!

That would indeed be an act of a god, but that's not the one i meant. :)
Reminds me of the OTHER story i thought funny today, one i'm having better luck finding ...

Aha, found it!:

Stop trying to make me blush. :p Rush of blood, eh? Hmmm. This is where, under mildly different circumstances, i would say we're on the same page. :p

Not so much coherent as enthusiastic.Oh, indeed. Like when i burp after eating a banana. Funny, my ferret jumped up and scratched at herself as i posted that. Seriously. :)


Hehe.

So, a little birdie told me you wanted to ask me something. Indeed, as the resident sexpert, i was wondering what your input would've been on most of the responses here ... and another i'll get shortly (mod/jolt providing)
Shoot!Again, pun noted. Pronounced more like, "baH!"
(Smunk knows what i'm talkin' 'bout) :p

I am as good or as bad as the person I'm with, since the act is nominally mutual.This.

Indeed, as the resident sexpert, i was wondering what your input would've been on most of the responses here ... and another i'll get shortly (mod/jolt providing)

I claim no expertness. :p It's just something I happen to do with my spare time; research and answer questions.

As for your question... well, I'd say most of us are answering in terms of "do you think you have good physical skills in bed". Being a good lover, in my opinion, relies very little on your actual "talents", so to speak, and depends almost entirely on your ability to communicate/willingness to experiment and learn. After all, what makes a universal good lover, when people's kinks/needs/desires/turn ons are so incredibly diverse? What gets one person off might be bizarre and alien to another. So relying on physical talents is only going to get you so far with certain people.

Instead, I'd say a good lover is someone who can communicate his/her needs, as well as ask after his/her partner's needs. A good lover is willing to both learn and teach as the situation requires, is open and unashamed about his/her needs, will try something new, respects his partner as well as himself, and *cares* about his partners happiness/pleasure/comfort. Physical acts can be learnt, and very often are - as well as fine-tuned - over time and familiarity with one's partner. But nothing will ever progress if you can't talk about what you want in the first place, or listen to what your partner wants. A good lover is comfortable enough to say, "Hey, this isn't working for me. Maybe we could try this instead?

So, in truth, I'd say I am a good lover, in that I am constantly learning, asking questions, experimenting, *telling* my SO when I would like something done a certain way, or differently, or exactly the way he's doing it. Would I consider myself as being extremely talented in bed? Eh. I'm still learning. Every experience makes me a little better. I certainly know a few, but hey, I've been sleeping with my SO for two years. I'd better have picked a few up by now.

A good lover is willing to both learn and teach as the situation requires, is open and unashamed about his/her needs, will try something new, respects his partner as well as himself, and *cares* about his partners happiness/pleasure/comfort. Physical acts can be learnt, and very often are - as well as fine-tuned - over time and familiarity with one's partner. But nothing will ever progress if you can't talk about what you want in the first place, or listen to what your partner wants. A good lover is comfortable enough to say, "Hey, this isn't working for me. Maybe we could try this instead?

So, in truth, I'd say I am a good lover, in that I am constantly learning, asking questions, experimenting, *telling* my SO when I would like something done a certain way, or differently, or exactly the way he's doing it. Would I consider myself as being extremely talented in bed? Eh. I'm still learning. Every experience makes me a little better. I certainly know a few, but hey, I've been sleeping with my SO for two years. I'd better have picked a few up by now.

This is just about exactly what i'm talking about. *bows*
I had one other question that i'll relate when my computer isn't about to die. Time to go charge it.

How about you just TG me when it's posted. :p so I'll know to refresh.

M'kay, since i'm taping Colbert, i'll toss it out ...
In knowledge of yourself as a good lover, are you able to recognize that another person also is without necessarily negotiating the concept of mutual intimacy/sex with them?
As in, after you've hooked up with someone, have you had them tell you they knew the two of you would hook up, based on a "kind of chemistry" that wasn't charged with innuendo/hit-ons/the usual efforts (while still being right of course)? Or when you first meet you know instantly that you're sexually compatible although neither of you discussed it, even with/without many subtle cues? I don't mean just being sexually attracted to superficial appearance, of course.

Are you a good lover?

Good enough to know that I can always be better. :p

Good enough to know that I can always be better. :pAgain, i say THAT's the SPIRIT! *bows*

It's not like I'm going to wake up one day and discover that I am now The Perfect Lover.

You gotta work at it. ;)

It's not like I'm going to wake up one day and discover that I am now The Perfect Lover.

You gotta work at it. ;)That's very true.

Well, my now-ex boyfriend just told me tonight that I'm the best person in bed he's ever been with, and he's been with a fair number of women. We'll say over 10 and under 50. So I guess so.

I really can't answer that in terms of personal experience, because... so far, I have kissed only one person in my life, let alone hooked up with. (Actually, that's a lie - I kissed another guy, once, when my SO and I weren't together for a couple months. But that barely counts as an anything.) Anyway, with my SO, it was a long process of falling for each other before we ever got to the kissing or hooking up, and while looking back I don't know how I believed we *wouldn't* get together, at the time, neither of us thought we would. We were young and silly.

I have certainly met people who I believe, were the situation to arise, that I would be sexually compatible with... but I obviously can't prove my suspicions right or wrong. Do I think it's possible? Yes. I think you can spark amazing chemistry with someone over... well, next to nothing, and it can prove to be monumental sex. I just have no experience in the area to speak of, so I'm going purely by speculation.

We were young and silly.What's this "were" stuff? :p

I have certainly met people who I believe, were the situation to arise, that I would be sexually compatible with... but I obviously can't prove my suspicions right or wrong.Would how you feel of yourself as a lover make the biggest difference in knowing that? (again the third part)
I just have no experience in the area to speak of, so I'm going purely by speculation.Triple :eek:
Well ... according to the forums you'd mentioned a while back, aside from speculation, what would you think?

And try not to feel too scrutinized/cross-examined here, please :p

Well, my now-ex boyfriend just told me tonight that I'm the best person in bed he's ever been with, and he's been with a fair number of women.Certainly he was saying this in respect, and not attempting to curry favour as so many of us are wont to do?
We'll say over 10 and under 50. So I guess so.He actually told you?
I never felt it was important to ask or to tell on that one, since in my experience it fomented a low level-yet-consistent competition mentality that often had a significant whiff of resentment on the part of my lover. Of course, living in a small town has certain ways around the uncertainty of that ... favourite quote used in that town was "you don't lose your bf/gf, you lose your place in line".

But how do you feel about yourself as a lover? Do you feel he's right?

Certainly he was saying this in respect, and not attempting to curry favour as so many of us are wont to do?

Heh. No, it was with respect. I thought it was sweet. I'm a strange girl, I'll admit.

He actually told you?

He never told me an exact number, mostly because he doesn't really know exactly, but we've discussed it, yes. We talk about all kinds of things, it just came up in conversation, not like either of us needed to know who the other had been with. He claims most of it was the result of low self-esteem when he was young and thinking each time someone wanted to sleep with him might be the last (I have no idea why, he is absolutely gorgeous in addition to all the real reasons I love him). I am not a competitive person, and even if I was, I would have known before he told me that I lost that competition--I've only been with one other person.

But how do you feel about yourself as a lover? Do you feel he's right?

I have a mountain of experience with one person, but very little with anyone else, so it's difficult to say. I certainly think that what I lack in experience I make up for in enthusiasm. ;)

This is kind of what i'm angling at in this thread. If you don't mind me asking, how could you see yourself as "better"?

I'd like to be more engergetic, do more 'on top', be more feminine (in terms of the way I act, you know the whole "lady on the street, freak in the bed" thing. And, of course, there's the whole *body issues* thing. Yeahhhhh.

Personally, there is nothing that held me back more or ruined the mood more than having body issues. It didn't help that things got more and more tense between us as my weight loss became more visible. Strangely, the only time I was able to really let go of my self-analysis was when we were in bed. Only time I had more important things on my mind. ;)

I would say that I'm a decent lover. I try to be attentive to my ladyfriend's body language and ask if she's okay if something seems to be wrong. Her being happy makes me happy, and her pleasure excites me. By now I've figured out a lot of things she likes, and some things that she doesn't, and I like cuddling with her, which is good, since she is a very cuddling person. So yeah, I guess I'm ok.

I've probably asked before, but have you suffered from an ED?

This would be the inverse case of Amor Pulchritudo's point, i think.
What if the situation is that, certainly, PB&J sees you as a good (whatever positive description fits) lover, where you don't see yourself as such for what reason?

Interesting question, although it's a little hard to imagine someone with low self-confidence being able to be truly satisfying to their lover.

I'd like to think I'm a good lover. I've had a few compliments by experienced folks. No complaints, but I suppose most guys won't complain to a gals face. I'm pretty skilled, but must admit to being a little lazy. So I'd say better than average.

It most certainly would make you popular ... does it make you fulfilled (no pun intended)?

Very much so. I know I'm kind of a weirdo in this, but it's true. I've had some approximation of the following discussion with everyone I've ever hooked up with:

"What do you want?"
"Whatever you want."
"Aw, that's sweet, but seriously."
"I was being serious."
"Okay, but what would you prefer I want?"
"...whatever you actually do want."
"No, c'mon, you must want something."
"I want to do what you want!"
"Right, right, but if I were to do this, would that be good?"
"Mmm, yes."
"How about this?"
"Yes..."
"But that one was stupid and totally unsexy!"
"Oh. Okay, then you shouldn't do it."
"But you said you liked it?"
"I thought you liked it, so I did."
"But I want to know what you want!"
"I want what you want! That's really and truly and honestly what I want. I want you to be happy because when you are happy I'm happy. I want you to be turned on because turning you on turns me on. Please?"
"...I totally don't understand how that works, but, heck, I can't really complain. Get over here and do this thing I want, then."
"Yaaaaay!"

Interesting question, although it's a little hard to imagine someone with low self-confidence being able to be truly satisfying to their lover.

Why?

No :(

Why?

Because a low level of self confidence tends to be self-defeating and typically leads to lesser results.

I can't honestly be bothered reading through 9 pages of discussion, so I'll just answer the original question posed on the first page :D

The words' skyscraper' and 'stallion' spring to mind :P But seriously though... I wouldn't say that I'm amazing, I mean I don't exactly have a lot of experience. But I can say I'm better than a lot of my other fellow low-confidence socially maladjusted nerds out there! I'm quite lucky though, to have a gf who's caring and patient enough to put up with me.. and no I'm not just talking about sex :P

The thing is, your 'goodness' as a lover is going to depend on the particular tastes of your partner, and their ability to make them clear to you. If your partner just wishes you'd lie there perfectly still and quiet and you're writhing and moaning, then you're not going to be 'good' at that moment.

If your partner just wishes you'd lie there perfectly still and quiet and you're writhing and moaning, then you're not going to be 'good' at that moment.

If you're moaning, you're not good, but annoying and an instant lust-killer, period. Yes, in fact I have recently been appointed Single Valid Opinion-Holder on All Things Sexual; why are you asking?

I can't really imagine it either - being asexual by nature, that is. I can assure you, though, that even a perfectly normal libido can/will diminish and ultimately dissipate over a long enough timespan and under the wrong conditions. :p

Fixed. There are no "right" circumstances for the dissipation of the libido -- at least if you mean "right" as in "good". :(

I get good feedback.

I think my husband is lightyears ahead of me in technique than I am, but I'll practice until perfect. :D

I've said it before, and I'll say it again -- that is one lucky, lucky man.

I claim no expertness. :p It's just something I happen to do with my spare time; research and answer questions.

As for your question... well, I'd say most of us are answering in terms of "do you think you have good physical skills in bed". Being a good lover, in my opinion, relies very little on your actual "talents", so to speak, and depends almost entirely on your ability to communicate/willingness to experiment and learn. After all, what makes a universal good lover, when people's kinks/needs/desires/turn ons are so incredibly diverse? What gets one person off might be bizarre and alien to another. So relying on physical talents is only going to get you so far with certain people.

Instead, I'd say a good lover is someone who can communicate his/her needs, as well as ask after his/her partner's needs. A good lover is willing to both learn and teach as the situation requires, is open and unashamed about his/her needs, will try something new, respects his partner as well as himself, and *cares* about his partners happiness/pleasure/comfort.

But nothing will ever progress if you can't talk about what you want in the first place, or listen to what your partner wants. A good lover is comfortable enough to say, "Hey, this isn't working for me. Maybe we could try this instead?

So, in truth, I'd say I am a good lover, in that I am constantly learning, asking questions, experimenting, *telling* my SO when I would like something done a certain way, or differently, or exactly the way he's doing it. Would I consider myself as being extremely talented in bed? Eh. I'm still learning. Every experience makes me a little better. I certainly know a few, but hey, I've been sleeping with my SO for two years. I'd better have picked a few up by now.

These four paragraphs should be required reading for all those who get their sexual advice from magazines (Cosmo and the like or Maxim and the like), porno, insincere friends, or anywhere else but communication.

You and Straughn win this thread.

If you're moaning, you're not good, but annoying and an instant lust-killer, period. Yes, in fact I have recently been appointed Single Valid Opinion-Holder on All Things Sexual; why are you asking?

That depends on the moaner, the kind of moan, the pitch and timbre of the moan, and the cause-effect modulation of the moan. Never write sexual sounds off until you've heard them all...and I don't think anyone has.

If you're moaning, you're not good, but annoying and an instant lust-killer, period. Yes, in fact I have recently been appointed Single Valid Opinion-Holder on All Things Sexual; why are you asking?

Well Single Valid Opinion-Holder on All Things Sexual, it depends entirely on the moan. Contrived moans are horrific, though still somewhat satisfying to the insecure, but moans you can't help, moans that simply cannot be contained, most surely should not be killing anyone's lust...unless pleasing their partner is inherently lust killing.

Of course it is. The second he's getting any pleasure, he gets all distracted from what he's supposed to be doing, and that gets rather lust-killing rather soon.Yes, I'm still joking.

oooooh buuuuuurn!

oooooh buuuuuurn!

Except the white text makes it clear it wasn't.

You forgot to wear your special superhero glasses. Tsk.

I've probably asked before, but have you suffered from an ED?

Yep. Bulimia.

"that don't exclusively deal with someone whom you've developed a necessary tactile and emotional rapport with."

a good lover would not be one who "loves" (in the physical~sex sense) with one who he or she is not emotionally involved with. that would be more of one who is physical adept at sex with whomever yet devoid of love (the emotional type).

in my OPINION: Love is an Action of giving. one gives to one who is in need. usually the act is one graciousness and seldom manifested thru the act of sex. under this perspective Love can be given to anyone without the necessity of a "tactile and emotional rapport with" they who is receiving the act of love.

In either case, regardless of one's definitions ~ esoteric or superficial ~ i am not a good lover. I am an outstanding lover. ;p

Interesting question, although it's a little hard to imagine someone with low self-confidence being able to be truly satisfying to their lover.That's what makes me wonder when/if a lover is trying harder to please their lover than themselves.

a good lover would not be one who "loves" (in the physical~sex sense) with one who he or she is not emotionally involved with. that would be more of one who is physical adept at sex with whomever yet devoid of love (the emotional type).The reason why i pointed out the "exclusively" part is the obvious conclusion of acclimation couples go through to be most responsive and fulfilling to/with their lover, on strongly binding emotional grounds and the foreknowledge of certain erogenous zones and the like. People will answer that way more often than that, in my experience.

Fair enough. Well thought out, i appreciate that. :)

Heh. No, it was with respect. I thought it was sweet. I'm a strange girl, I'll admit.Which, of course, makes you that much more attractive a person, imnsho. :)

I hope that the fact he's your ex is really what's best for the both of you, because i rarely hear this much respect and appreciation about an ex from anyone.

I certainly think that what I lack in experience I make up for in enthusiasm. ;)
Hallelujah!! :D

I'd like to be more engergetic,I've had people tell me some interesting stories about E, but staying awake and not distracted are all that i shoot for myself these days. :p
do more 'on top',Do you mean, like juggle while whistling the Andy Griffith theme or something?
be more feminine (in terms of the way I act, you know the whole "lady on the street, freak in the bed" thing. Compared with the inverse?
And, of course, there's the whole *body issues* thing. Yeahhhhh.Chez WHAT? :confused:
Can i vote "issue resolved"? :p

Her being happy makes me happy, and her pleasure excites me. Good, good. This is extremely important, imnsho.

You and Straughn win this thread.
This reminds me of a catchy little quote that Sean Connery riffed off in this action flick i saw once. :D

True. I had two thoughts immediately in response to this - one, being those little SimSpeak balloons with the plus and minus (and what we were talking about earlier with enunciation) ... and two, this makes me wonder how many people are into roleplay to strengthen the bond/exacerbate the differences with their lover. I think that was already on another thread though.

That depends on the moaner, the kind of moan, the pitch and timbre of the moan, and the cause-effect modulation of the moan. Never write sexual sounds off until you've heard them all...and I don't think anyone has.
This reminds me of the joke Seinfeld was saying about not following people to their jobs and heckling them. :p

Because a low level of self confidence tends to be self-defeating and typically leads to lesser results.

Well, while that makes sense, people who suffer from a low level of self confidence don't neccesarily feel that way all day. I used to suffer from a low level of self confidence (I don't anymore, I'm probably one of the most confident people I know, haha!), however, when with my lover any sort of issues about myself flew out the window.

Yep. Bulimia.

Ditto. I had it for five years.

How are you nowadays?

I've had people tell me some interesting stories about E, but staying awake and not distracted are all that i shoot for myself these days. :p

I don't think I need E to be more energetic in bed, I just need to be less lazy, haha.


Do you mean, like juggle while whistling the Andy Griffith theme or something?

Not exactly. ;)

Compared with the inverse?

Exactly, haha.

Nah, if anything I need to be less interesting or get hold of a lover with an attention span over 1.7 seconds. Kidding.... he's gone up to 2.1 already. ;P

Sometimes I really want to be alone
But that's one state I'm never in
Because I know that I've got millions upon millions
Of tiny, one-celled organisms living on my skin

(Germs) I rub and scrub until my flesh is raw and bleeding
(Germs) But they just come right back again
(Germs) I can't even see 'em, but I know they're up to something
Hey, don't touch that - you don't know where it's been

They're all over me
They're inside of me
Can't get 'em offa me
I'm covered with ... microscopic bacteria
What do they want from me
What'll they do to me
There's no escape for me
I'm crawling with ... microscopic bacteria

Now if I ever dare to go to sleep
That's when they start their sneak attack
In the morning I wake up in utter horror
To find my teeth are covered with bacterial plaque

(Germs) Can't get those parasitic creatures off my face
(Germs) And there's more comin' every day
(Germs) I never said that they could camp out on my body
I wish they'd pack their tiny little bags and move away

They're all over me
They're inside of me
Can't get 'em offa me
I'm covered with ... microscopic bacteria
What do they want from me
What'll they do to me
There's no escape for me
I'm crawling with ... microscopic bacteria

They're creepin' around my shorts
They're under the bathroom sink
They're ridin' inside my car
They're swimmin' in every drink
They're hidin' between my toes
They're lurkin' in every kiss
I got 'em way up my nose
In every orafice
I'm gonna show them who's boss
I'm gonna get even yet
Just gimme some Lysol spray
Just hand me a moist towelette
Don't tell me I'm paranoid
I know that they're after me
Look under the microscope
See??

They're all over me
They're inside of me
Can't get 'em offa me
I'm covered with ... microscopic bacteria
What do they want from me
What'll they do to me
There's no escape for me
I'm crawling with ... microscopic bacteria

They're all over me
I can feel 'em all over me
Over every part of me
Microscopic bacteria
I know they're watching me
They're always watching me
They're coming after me
Microscopic bacteria
Won't somebody help me
Please somebody help me
You've got to believe me
They're out to get me
They wanna control me
They wanna destroy me
They're tryin' to kill me
It kind of upsets me

So, do you have germaphobia (well, obsesiveness surrounding bodily hygene)?
Not generally (as anyone who knows me would attest), just seemed like a good place to put a joke in at my expense.
Things i find unbecoming about my body/self? Well, one thing that's kinda complicated to have to explain, but i'll suffice to say it has to do with an ulcer and martial arts training i was going through in 7th grade that has had an effect on my sensitivities to things, including sex.
I've got other problems of course, but this one is the only one that comes to mind in this context.
