Okay. I have been reading a lot on this forum and have learned a lot the last few weeks. I haven't been posting much, since I don't really have anything to add, but I do have some things on my mind right now that I wanted to get your opinion on.
I have a girlfriend now for more than 4 years. She is really good to me in the sense that she stimulates those things within myself that I need to develop. Points out my blind spots, so to say. And she really knows how to do it in a way that I cannot neglect. My biggest blind spot is sex. I have a very ambiguous attitude towards it. It is surrounded by feelings of pleasure, bliss, joy, but also by feelings of shame, guilt and fear. I have grown a habit of avoiding it as much as possible and my girlfriend is becoming frustrated.
This habit actually made me believe I didn't want sex, that I didn't want to get close to someone, that it was a waste of energy. Everything always seems so heavy and loaded. I don't like it. I do have sex with my girlfriend every now and then (once twice a week), but I never get really into it if you get what I mean. We have tried tantric methods and this is really interesting, but still doesn't help us get to it. Once we get to it, it is mostly pleasurable, but I have problems recognizing that my girlfriend wants to have sex and even that I want to have sex, it is so unconscious!
I frankly don't know what to do. I wish I could just uncover myself, grow up and get on with it without feeling bad about it. Why has a cultural taboo had such an influence on me? How can I free myself from all this bullshit?
