I can't tell you how happy I am to have found this post! I am involved with someone who is just like you in this regard and I've never been in this situation before. However, I have to say, as respectfully as I can, that I am disappointed to hear so many replies that put it down to 'performance anxiety' even though your post says you're "in heaven" when you are together with your Dom. I would like to pose a few questions: - Is the face down position something you gravitated to naturally on your own when you first started masturbating? Your initial post indicates it was, so I'd be inclined to think it is to a great extent the way you're wired physically. We humans tend to gravitate naturally to the things that work for us when pleasing ourselves. For example: No one ever had to tell me that it is more comfortable and more effective for me to masturbate with my left hand. It just came naturally. I eventually learned that I could do it with my right hand, but it is so much more natural left-handed that I almost always do it that way and I did it that way from the start. - If this was the most comfortable and effective position for you in the beginning, were you 'anxious' then? My guess - and this is only a guess - is that you were not any more anxious than the rest of us, and that the position was simply very natural and comfortable for you. - Was there ever a time when you could climax comfortably in other positions? If so, when did it change back to the face down preference, and what was going on in your life at the time? - If this has been natural for you from the start, I would encourage you to accept yourself as you are, even while you try to branch out and find new ways to play, and to stop thinking that there is something 'wrong' with you. I need to tell you I have a real problem with any explanations that make it your 'fault' for being the way you are. That would be like blaming you for being right or left handed. You said that your Dom has told you that you are thinking too much. I say that is an opinion based in intolerance and disrespect, and it reflects his frustration with himself for not being able to handle it. If you're not "thinking too much" when you're face down, why does he assume you're "thinking too much" when you're face up? What is his explanation for that? Again, an example of my own: I've had insomnia all my adult life. People - doctors included - told me for years that I was thinking too much and that I should just relax! Well, it turned out that I have metabolic issues that cause my insomnia and no amount of relaxing is going to make me sleep better. When people can't solve a problem that is inconvenient to them, they look for someone to blame - the person with the problem. The last resort is always to blame the person who is going through the situation or problem. This relieves the other party of any responsibility, and gives them someone to be angry with - in this case, you - so they can vent their frustration at you. It could very well be that you will learn to be more comfortable in other positions. If your Dom is into you as much as it seems you are into him, he will do what I am doing with my partner: accepting you as you are, then slowly starting to shape you toward something that works for him, too. I look at the situation with my girl as our own unique starting point; I build our scenes and lovemaking around what we have and I am branching out from there. In time I am sure that we will be able to do much more, and we're both enjoying the discovery along the way. But never - ever - do I trivialize what my girl is going through, or act as if something is wrong with her, or blame her, or make her feel like she is anything less than absolutely wonderful. The ironic thing is that what has started to happen is that we are finding all kinds of amazing ways to play and make love that we would never have found if it weren't for the two of us being exactly who we are, the way we are. I look forward to more replies on this, yours especially.
