Scarleteen

Hey Scarleteen,

I had coffee with a friend earlier and we chatted about sex and sexual relationships and sexuality..
I have some desires and i want to talk about them but I feel weird saying them out loud so I have always felt safe here and have always felt listened to and understood..

I am lesbian though I prefer the word gay. I was married to a man many years ago and then left him for a woman.. I got divorced from her this year but had a relationship with a woman during the divorce.. the sex was mind-blowing but she was married and I broke it off after a couple of months. In these few months I realised some things about my sexual desires which confuses me a bit ..
I crave someone over me on top of me, I crave the weight of someone on me and at the same time in me .. I love the sensation of being penetrated but also someone over me.. I loved the sight of my girlfriend over me her naked body, I also loved the sight of my wife over me I love the sight of the female body.. it's the most beautiful thing in the world to me.. what I missed was the penetration at the same time.. that's why I wanted to have sex with a strap on so badly.. we never got to it and I still don't own one but I fantasize about it all the time..
Maybe it's the weight of someone on me is like a deep pressure like a massage..
I want it so much.. is that weird?

I want it to be a woman though.. I have come to terms that I prefer women.. I remember I preferred my ex husband to fuck me from behind and I could never understand why.. cause I loved having my ex wife and girlfriend over me but they were beautiful to me.. I loved their Bodies.. it was so gorgeous for me.. and when they were orgasming they were even more beautiful..

As what a man isn't beautiful to me in actual fact I am replused everything just puts me off..

I want to have sex for hours on end that's also one of the reasons why I prefer woman. I was just never satisfied when I was with a man .. it was over so quickly and then I watched porn and masturbated and then I felt bad and wrong and fucked up..
Is that weird or is it normal.. I was talking to colleagues and they were telling me that their men last so much longer that they sometimes wish they would just end.. as I have never experienced a man like that.. and I was so sad that day after that conversation. I felt that I have been robbed and lied to.. I have always believed that men just don't last..

Sometimes I would say the phrase I should fuck it out of you like rough sex beats you into submission.. I don't know if that is wrong or weird or not loving..
I let my ex husband fuck me..
I wanted my girlfriend to fuck me quiet like a 50 shades of grey violent vibe. . My ex-wife was very gentle in bed though.. she never did, I wanted her to do it but she was so gentle and loving.. it confused me..
And now I worry that violence have been a turn on for me.. that really worries me..

I struggled to lubricate with both my ex husband and wife.. I really struggled to orgasm with both of them two but for different reasons..
My ex husband it was too quick.. my ex-wife fucked with me psychologically which left me fearful and then I struggled to orgasm I struggled to focus on her..

With my girlfriend I could just think of her and I orgasmed.. I felt safe with her and I lubricated easily.. I was also so wet and so turned on.. just still thinking of her turns me on.. talking about her turns me on.. we have broken contact but I miss her so much..

I don't know how long a man should last if it is healthy.. my ex husband never lasted long.. I realise now that he watched porn probably and maybe that's why he came quite quickly.. I would encourage him to jerk off before and then have sex with me afterwards so he lasts longer.. I wanted sex more than he did I think.. I felt like he had more power than me.. I felt helpless and I felt wrong.. I knew that I didn't find him so attractive even though he was a very attractive man.. I always longed for female touch..

He used to get so angry and upset with other stuff and then he would fuck me till he felt better.. I never felt nice after and it left me just unsatisfied and horny and lonely.. but I thought it helped him so I just let it..
We did have sex sometimes when it was good and I felt seen and wanted..
I was sexually assaulted a few years ago in a house robbery, when the men assaulted me all I kept saying to myself was that I have been through this before.. only a few weeks ago did I realise that, that wasn't normal that I viewed sex with my exhusband in the same light as men who broke into our house and wanted to assault me... Since I realised this I have been disturbed and so bothered and worry by it.. I've felt physically ill and really feel depressed..

I am fearful of a man though.. I don't long for a man .. but I do want the penetration.. at times I obsessed over having sex with a strap on.. I googled it daily and googled different strap ons and porn with a strap on..

Why am I so obsessed with it.. this needs to have sex with a strap on but not with a man confuses me so much..

I thought I would reach out on Scarleteen and hear what you guys think of this whole thing ..

Maybe you can give me a different view or some different insights into my needs and desires..

Hi TaylorJames!

I don't think there's anything strange about any of the desires you've described.

The one thing I notice though, is that you seem to heavily link certain kinds of sex, duration of sex, and sexual feelings with certain genders... and I don't think that's going to be very helpful to you. Every partner you have is going to have a different approach and experiences with sex, and these are all things you're going to discover anew on a case-by-case basis, with any partner of any gender.

It can also be alarming to find that feelings you have during an assault are familiar to feelings you had in consensual, but unhappy past sexual experiences, and those are certainly observations to pay attention to when you're processing what happened.

I wouldn't look at those reactions as "normal" or "not normal" - The reason they're worth paying attention to is because they're real and you're feeling them, not because of how they do or don't align to some idea of "normal".

Have you ever had therapy or support around the robbery & assaults? That definitely seems like the kind of thing some extra help could be good for!
