Episode 73: Do You Ever “Owe” Sex To Your Partner?

Have you ever had your partner initiate sex and thought to
yourself, “I should probably just do it because I’ve said ‘no’ so
much”? Or has your partner been the one reminding you of your track
record of responses?   Or maybe you’re the one wishing your
partner would say “yes” a whole lot more often.   
Spoiler alert: You should never feel pressured (or pressure
yourself) to do something you don’t want to do with your own body.
But this issue can get surprisingly complex. Intimacy is one of the
foundations of a relationship, and it’s understandable for partners
to have needs. How can we honor what our partner wants, while also
staying true to ourself and our boundaries?   Let us walk you
through how to identify the real issue in all this gray area and
some simple ways to tackle this touchy subject.   Links &
