i was a virgin before my current boyfriend, we were friends before and things developed blah blah blah. my point: i've been faking it from day one. I FEEL AWFUL. and now i'm so in over my head i'm afraid if i tell him he'll dump me, or it'll be such a blow to his ego that he wont recover.

but it's hard to orgasm when you're like halfway there and your guy says "are you almost there?" TOTAL MOOD KILLER!

it also doesn't help that he only lasts 10 minutes if that!

i dont mean to criticize him, and i love him very much but i really want to be able to orgasm with him in the room.

i've tried giving him subtle hints, putting his hand here, vocalizing when it's good etc, but if i take more than 5 minutes the "are you there yet?" slips out of his lips.

AND when pleasing him i NEVER say such things, and many a night spend 15+ minutes down south pleasing him. doesn't seem to bother him then. . . . >:[

so a few questions:
how can i explain to him that girls take longer?
he's had a few partners, and he knows where things are, but how????
how can i get him to "warm" me up too, before we have sex? i get him going and he just hops in the sack ready to go. . .
and finally how can i get him to instigate sex? i do it 99% of the time and it makes me feel like he's not attracted to me. .

HELP

You're right, faking orgasms is never good.  You fake and therefore he thinks you're satisfied.  When you fake, you're also depriving yourself.  To orgasm you have to let your mind and body connect and come together to feel the sensations but when you're faking, your mind is concentrating *acting* out an orgasm and not on the sensations.

Actually a guy lasting 10 minutes during intercourse isn't considered too fast.  A lot of men get off much quicker than 10 minutes but they can also teach themselves to last longer.   If it's not long enough for your to orgasm, if you have orgasms during foreplay then you won't be left hanging when he gets off during IC.  Having orgasms during foreplay can also help you orgasm during IC.  Do you/he know that about 80% of women do not orgasm through IC alone without either clitoral stimulation during IC or the g-spot being stimulated?  The clitoris is where the majority of the female sexual nerve endings are, the vagina has very little nerve endings. 

If you need more after he gets off with IC, there's no reason the fun has to end, he can give you oral or manual stimulation afterwards.

Here's a good site, have him read it:  http://the-clitoris.com/

how can i explain to him that girls take longer?  You talk to him.  If he's ready to jump into intercourse and you're not, tell him you're not ready and you want/need more foreplay, more oral, more manual stimulation, whatever it is you want.

he's had a few partners, and he knows where things are, but how????  He might know where things are but if you don't tell him what you need and want, he'll never know because he's not a mind reader.  Not all women want and need the same thing, what worked for someone from his past doesn't mean it's going to work for you.  All women and all men are different, what works for one doesn't mean it will work for someone else. 

Tell him or better yet, show him what you need.  If you orgasm with masturbation, show him how you do it.

how can i get him to "warm" me up too, before we have sex? i get him going and he just hops in the sack ready to go. . .   As I said before, you talk him.

and finally how can i get him to instigate sex? i do it 99% of the time and it makes me feel like he's not attracted to me. .   Again, you talk to him about it, let him know that you would like him it initiate more often.   

With everything you asked, the key to a great sex life is being able to openly and honestly talk to each other about your sex life.  Talk to him outside of the bedroom when you're not being intimate.  Let him know when he asks are you almost there that it kills your mood.  Let him know you want and need more foreplay.  Let each other know what your wants, needs and desires are.

Great post by Tish, she gave you some great advice.

I would just probably reinforce more foreplay and definitely encourage afterplay with oral or hand stimulation if he tends to finish before you.

I wouldn't continue "faking it" as you project satisfaction in his eyes, so there is nothing for him to fix so to speak.

I wouldn't tell him that you have been faking it either, perhaps have a conversation outside the bedroom  blaming it on the time of the month and changes in libido...etc... Like honey, sometimes depending on my cycle, i need a little more foreplay or afterplay....

i dont mean to criticize him, and i love him very much but i really want to be able to orgasm with him in the room.

Putting it in the friendliest way possible; how can you criticise someone for what they're doing when they've been doing it based on the lies that you've told them??

how can i explain to him that girls take longer?

You talk to him and tell him. You can tell him to look it up on the internet if he doesn't believe you. Make it a light hearted conversation, don't get too serious or down on him. And do NOT criticise.

he's had a few partners, and he knows where things are, but how???? how can i get him to "warm" me up too, before we have sex? i get him going and he just hops in the sack ready to go. . .

Again by talking to him. If you were warmed up then I think that 10 minutes of intercourse would be plenty. You'd be popping after the first few minutes! A good way to start would be to resist him when he jumps into the sack ready to go next time. Pull away slightly as he goes to "jump on" you. Move back towards him and start touching him and kissing. Ask him to do the same. Tell him that you'd like to take it "slower" tonight and get "warmed up, that you're not quite turned on enough". Move, or do something different every time he tries to jump on if you're not ready. He can't get on top of you don't let him! Ask him to go down on you - having a woman ask you to go down on her can ber very erotic. After a few sessions he'll start to get the idea.

and finally how can i get him to instigate sex? i do it 99% of the time and it makes me feel like he's not attracted to me. .,?

This could take longer because he's probably used to letting you initiate it. Perhaps he's learnt that he'll be rejected if he tries to initiate it and now he waits for a clear invitation from you? Again, talk to him. Mention that it would be sexy or nice if he initiated some times. At least for the first few times that he tries to initiate you might have to go along with him even if it wasn't the sexiest or best way of initiating sex so that he doesn't feel rejected.

In many ways it might help to think of him as a small child - how do you get a reluctant child to do something? You talk nicely, you encourage them, you praise them when they've done well, you don't complain or growl if they don't get it exactly right the first time, you give them subtle and gentle pointers as time goes on so that they get better and better at what they're doing. yes, you are training him ;-)

On an emotional level, you are deceiving your partner. That can be harsh especially if your partner is working hard to please you.
