I could fill a stadium with women who don’t believe what I’m about to write, but nonetheless, I’m going to say it: men want to please you; they just don’t know how.
If you tell your significant other that you’d like for him to be more expressive, or to make more of an emotional connection with you, you might just as well be speaking to him in Japanese.
Men need concrete examples.
They’d rather not do something at all than do it wrong and look foolish to you. If you would like him to be more affectionate with you, be specific on how you’d like him to touch you and when. Lots of men don’t know what kitchen foreplay means. Once I explain it, they’re grateful.
