Hubby wants to try something new...

Sooooo... This is really embarassing for me to talk about, but I need advice. 

My husband wants to try anal sex. I'm very hesitant for a number of reasons, but mostly I'm afraid that it will hurt to much! When we first started having sex, it hurt alot and I'm afraid that will happen again.

Advice? Tips? Any help would be great! Thanks!

    The most important thing when trying anything new is COMMUNICATION. Yes, anal can be very painful. Especially if your partner goes too fast, to deep, to hard, etc. I recommend a LOT of foreplay and lots of lube. Go really slowly and say everything you are feeling about the experience. If it is too much for you, say so. It can be great, with the right person and in the right "conditions"-so to speak.

  • This is embarassing for me as well. My FI wants the same thing. We tired & tired but I would always get scared and chicken out. One night somehow I just let myself get calm and it happened. Yes it hurts but once you get past "that point" its fine. Communication is key though. Thankfully if I told my FI to stop, it hurt so on & so on, he listened and didn't get mad or frustrated with me. So I would suggest read the article in the PP & make sure to talk it out with your DH.
    • LUBE.  More than you would ever think you'd need. I mean A LOT.
    • COMMUNICATE. Tell him to stop if it hurts. Tell him if you need more lube. Tell him if you want to quit.
    • YOU do the work. Have him get things started, then you move at your own pace to try to get it in.
    • FOREPLAY. The more worked up you are beforehand, the more relaxed you will be, which will make it easier.
    • RELAX. Breathe. Use a vibe or your fingers on your clitoris at the same time, it will also help you relax and focus on something other than discomfort. It shouldn't be full on painful.
    • TAKE YOUR TIME. Go slow, take it easy. Stop if you need to, try again if you want.

  • To be honest, my hubby loves it! One thing that I've found that helps me is anal beads. Ones that start small and get bigger.

    Good luck! And remember lube and communication! It can really be fun for the both of you!

  • I was EXTREMELY embarrassed and hesitant when my fi first asked me to do this. It took me a long time to agree. My fi is very patient and understanding and constantly talking to me. We've done it 4 or 5 times (we would stop when it got too painful for my liking) and each time it gets better and better. It's still not completely enjoyable for me yet, but I have a feeling that we'll get there at some point, as will you! The key is communication and making sure you're keeping eachothers feelings at heart.

     

    Good luck!

  • I sell Romance enhancement products. One of the items is tooshies it used to be called anal ease. It helps numb the area! It is also Awesome for waxing! I have also heard that doing it in the spooning position helps to keep your body more relaxed. But above all else lube and communication is the most important.

  • Like what has been said, the most important thing is communication. If this is something you deep down dont really want to do then say so. Personally I wouldnt ever try it, just because of the problems it can cause. I would never want to risk getting hemroids or anything like that. Maybe talk to your doc and ask what the risks are and if it will cause any long term damage.
