The most "sexual" thing we've done is apply sunscreen on each other.
...sometimes I just want to have sex instead of having these deep two hour conversations.

I just don't want to make the first move and be rejected..l.
You can't have it both ways ...meaning you'll have to take the risk.

It starts with your hand on him...

Aye, there's no more direct message than that!

You should talk to him about it when things are not hot and heavy. There could be any number of reasons. Several men I've dated in the past waited awhile till we knew each other better. I'm all for getting an early start on things, but some men have more self control than you think.

Have respect for his wishes. Practice communicating and listening. If things move forward, you'll be glad to have learned to discuss sensitive topics at the beginning.

If a man tried to talk to me with his hand on my xxxxx, I'd have to protest.

Besides, if they've already gotten hot and heavy, if he wanted to, she wouldn't have posted.

Are you suggesting that you can define what that phrase means to the OP?

I have my notions... but rather than assuming I know for certain...
the specific suggestion to cross a specific line seems called for.

That's a different thread. And a different sexual dynamic as well.

But I'll suggest that if it was a man you wanted in that "hot and heavy" way...
you wouldn't protest much at all.

I never say/do anything though because I don't want to make it awkward/get rejected.

@funnyman, he's definitely not a virgin
Hmmmm....when he gets up to do something right after, do you notice anything? Is your making out having any effect on him that you can see? I think you need to develop a case of "Roman hands" and perhaps he'll catch on with some "Russian fingers".

What has always worked for me - grab his stuff. And not weakly, use a firm touch. If he doesn't get the message he may not be convincingly heterosexual, or truly interested in you. But you could always unbutton or unzip his pants and make direct contact. If he rebuffs you at this point then he has issues. I'd move on. If I were you, I'd make this move the next time I see him. Sexuality is way too significant a part of a relationship for me, and if he doesn't want sexual intimacy I wouldn't want him. The choice is yours though. I can't abide living with a eunuch.

We females have ways of making men do what we want, but I want the man to come after me because he wants me, not because I made him.
Don't we really want men who will swim through shark infested waters to have us, instead of because we seduce him?
OP needs to drop this guy, for sure.
