Hi (((((Inny)))),

What's wrong? Why are you punishing yourself? And why does sex feel like a punishment? If it feels bad, you don't have to do it. You can wait and try to figure out how to make it feel pleasurable.

I don't know if it helps for me to ask those questions (probably not), so don't answer if you don't want to. But don't punish yourself! Have some compassion for you. You don't deserve to suffer.

I wish you comfort.

Sidony

i dont know...most of the time i like being intimate with my boyfriend....but there are times where i cannot stand myself....and part of that feeling is not wanting to expose myself to someone else...even though i am deeply in love with my bf and he feels the same....so as a way to hurt myself.....to punish myself....i force myself to be intimate even if i hate it ....and cannot stand it...my boyfriend kinda sorta realized it....but i dont think he is totally getting the idea...besides im a great actress ....i dont know why i do or..or why ive associated it at times with punishment...its a mystery...thanks for responding....

Poor Inny,

Can you talk to your boyfriend about it? Tell him you're feeling so down on yourself that you're not able to make love? Maybe he can help you when you're like that. I'm sure he'd try since he loves you.

Do you see a therapist in real life? Maybe one could help you get to the root of the issue so that you're not afraid to feel exposed or vulnerable. If you're afraid, the sex won't feel good I'm sure.

I'm so sorry. Wish I had more helpful suggestions.

Take care,
Sidony
