writes:My girlfriend of 8 months has a lot of difficulty with intimacy with men, due to the fact that she has had bad sexual experiences in the past. She is bisexual and finds it easier to relate to women, but at the same time she tells me she loves me with all her heart. I just don't know how to make her trust me and realise I am not like the other men she knew. We have yet to have sex as she tells me she doesn't fully trust me yet, and I have respected her wishes and not tried in any way to initiate intimacy. I love her more than anything, but don't know how much longer I can stay in a relationship without intimacy (even kissing and cuddlin).

 Eight months is a long time and she should know you fairly well by now to trust you. Does she not try to kiss you or to cuddle you? Do you have any form of physical contact at all? What happened with these men in the past that were so awful? She needs to be reassured that NOT all men are the same and you would never treat her that way. If you could answer my questions we'll try to work together and sort this out. I think there's more to it. Either get back to me here or email me okay?
