Should We Teach?

October 26, 2005 by NML

I’ve discovered recently that a great kiss doesn’t translate into great in the sack, but does that mean that I should become ‘teacher’ and teach him all that he should know?

In a world where it is not that easy to meet people and there is another side of us that doesn’t want to have keep fishing in the dating lake and putting ourselves out there, when does it stop being acceptable to teach someone the ropes?

I guess this where we have to think about all areas of the relationship and weigh things up. Sex is a very important part of a relationship, but it’s not the be all and end all. We can have great sex with people and but still be incompatible elsewhere. I don’t expect the earth, moon and stars to collide and fireworks to shoot out of my ass, and I know that life isn’t like the movies, but when has it become acceptable not to want more?

There have been a lot of suggestions regarding how I should move forward:

1) Teach the guy the ropes - Main concern is going to the trouble of investing the energy, only to discover that things aren’t right between us

2) Give him another chance to redeem himself when I’m comfortable with it. Leave some distance between us and the bedroom and focus on rebuilding the chemistry - Should we have to rebuild?

3) Move on.

Just so we’re clear, it would be a back to basics lesson…

Sounds like far too much hard work for me…
