Can we explore some touch? Can we explore some massage together and see if it builds from there? But it can also be tricky because, again, because of the way our society is set up, that person might never have had a conversation like this. Like what we're talking about now is not as commonplace.

So I feel like you could just sort of be vulnerable with somebody you're dating and say, like, I don't know if I feel the spark, but would you be open to like exploring with me, going to a play party, doing something different and seeing if you can kind of find that with somebody? Yeah. But also we just might not have it. Somebody might just come into your life to be a really good friend.

Like I don't, there's a lot of factors that have to fall into place. But if you, but you were asking if everything's great, yeah, they're great on paper or all that stuff, but it's not there. Sometimes it's just not there. Yeah. Like that's just the magic.

And I have to say that people have to, I love that you said non-negotiable because it's I can't tell you how many people are like, everything's great and we're married, but we don't have great sex. We're married and have never been attracted. We have six kids.

And it's like, that's really tough when you've already like walked on the aisle and committed to somebody, but you're like, everything was great. But the sex, the sex is not a but. Sex is not an afterthought. Like that is what we're talking about. That sex is wellness. Sex is important. Your pleasure is important. And you have to prioritize it from the jump.

So again, if you're dating somebody and it's only been a few times you've gone out or it's been a few months and it just, you've tried, like I, someone recently reached out, they're like, I'm dating this person. And, and it's really like, they've tried to have conversations with them about a few things that weren't working. They weren't receptive.

They're like, but I really like, I'm like, listen, it's been three months. This is the honeymoon phase. If the sex isn't great right now, like, cut your losses. This is still, it's like, they're not open. They're showing you who they are right now. You know, you have enough information at this point.

Oh my God. I love this question because it's so true. Like you nailed it. The reason why we don't have these conversations with our partners is exactly that. We're afraid we're going to offend them. We're going to hurt their feelings. And we're like, I know it's not great, but I actually don't know what I want. So I think I'm just going to stay mute about it and hope it gets better.
