hi there Brian... let me see if I can answer your questions fully... Im not shy about sharing. How often? at most once a month. Who initiates? 90% me Forplay to him is 30 sec long... as for routine? changing things up? I am up for it but he isnt. He likes to get his pleasure and is done. oral activities? I do for him, he never does that for me. I have tried to get him to be in control and I have taken control. Nothing seems to make him want more. I have made it clear that I am willing. He just has no desire. Im not sure what answers you were expecting....
