Dear Emily,
I have a problem with masturbation — I can’t do it.
It’s not that I’m a prude about masturbation. Believe me, I have tried time and time again! I know what I’m supposed to do and I get how to do it, I’ve masturbated in front of a partner before and it was GREAT. But when it’s me by myself, I just can’t seem to get into it or even get to a place where it feels good. Since I’m doing the actual touching part the right way, I know it has to be something about my mindset. What am I doing wrong?

Dear Emily,
My boyfriend of three years and I have decided that we would really like to spice things up in the bedroom, but we're having trouble coming up with something that will WOW us both.
He has proposed the idea of a threesome several times throughout our relationship, and I've always ignored it or changed the subject. I just wasn't sure how I felt about it. But now that we're looking to try new things together, I'm wondering if I should give the threesome idea a chance. On the one hand, it sounds like it could be a really fun time, but what if it changes things between us? So my question is, can a threesome ever be a good thing for people in a relationship? And if so, how can I tell if my relationship is ready for one?

Ever been contemplating a visit to the gym and thought “I wish someone could just take my spinning class for me and I could continue to sit here eating my cheez-its?”
We’ve all had those days where we wish someone else could sweat in our stead while still reaping the benefits of flatter abs or a firmer behind.
Well, technology hasn’t come that far in the cardio department, but it has made amazing strides for your pelvic floor muscles.

Q:
Hi Emily,
I have a question regarding sex with my fiance. We really only have sex on the weekends, maybe once or twice on Saturday or on Sunday morning. He works long hours and is often very tired after work, and he has stated on multiple occasions that he doesn’t feel like having sex when he is tired. Personally, I would love to be getting busy more often, but I always end up feeling like he’s just not into it.

Dear Emily,
Recently I have been dealing with an issue that I can’t seem to wrap my head around: I’m in love with a man who is absolutely awful at performing oral sex. He doesn’t go down on me very often, but when he does it’s sloppy and rough and all over the place - I mean, really terrible! I just don’t get it... He is a great kisser and is so good with his hands, but when it comes to oral sex, he seems to be completely clueless.

Dear Emily,
I recently started dating a guy (a great guy, actually!) and things are going really well. There’s only one problem… I’m afraid to have sex with him! We’ve been seeing each other for almost two months now and we still haven’t done the deed. It’s not that I’m not attracted to him or that I’m afraid he won’t respect me. The real reason is that I am pretty sure I’m bad in bed.
