I didn't see the other post for ladies.
I didn't feel comfortable with daty when I first started.
I felt like guys only did it because they felt obligated and I didn't want them to feel that way. That was probably mostly subconscious. I just thought I didn't like it.
When I started working as a provider 5 or 6 years ago, not doing daty was a deal breaker for many guys. I was kind of amazed that I'd been so wrong about so many things. I had to learn how to be comfortable "receiving", and I had to trust that a man would speak up about what he does and doesn't want to do. If he says he wants to, I believe him, now.
Even still I have to work at this. I often feel like if I'm "receiving" for longer that a few minutes I should begin "giving" again to be sure the man will enjoy himself.
Since daty is such an important part of what many men want I think it's extremely important for providers to make every effort to learn to enjoy it this and all other aspects of a sexual encounter. I'm sure some people will disagree. It's not like it hurts.
Most importantly, we all have to learn to feel comfortable speaking up for ourselves and saying what we like and what we want. Everyone says this, but in reality it's not always comfortable for us to speak up when it comes to intimacy. We don't want the other person to be displeased or have hurt feelings. Especially as a provider. I want the client to want to return. I definitely have to remind myself that this is okay. It has to be okay. We are being intimate with strangers and we want it to be good, so we all have to learn to be comfortable speaking up about our likes and dislikes.
Sorry to butt in on the guys thread, but I felt like I had something to offer because of my personal insecurities and learning experiences
