LAUGHING AT ME

My boyfriend mocked my bedroom skills and now I have lost my confidence

DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER my boyfriend teased me for having “mum skills” in the bedroom, my confidence is shattered.

I am what you would call a late developer.

I feel like I don't want to bother with him in bed any more

No issue is too small, too large or too embarrassing. Read our personal replies here.

Although physically I looked just as mature as other girls my age, I’ve never had body confidence or felt confident in the bedroom.

I’m now 23 and he’s 25.

I have only had one other boyfriend and have been with this current guy for the past 18 months.

He is the first person I had oral sex with and now I don’t want to try again, as I feel like he’s laughing at me.

DEIDRE SAYS: While oral sex may be a turn-on to one person it can have completely the opposite effect on another.

Let your boyfriend know his comments upset you. If he is worth investing in, he will want to help you explore this sexual experience.

Go at your own pace. A kiss here or there is fine until you feel you want to venture further.

I am sending you my support pack Oral Sex to reassure you.
