Today, unfortunately, my new husband's idea of foreplay is to tap me on the shoulder and tell me to roll over. I saved myself for marriage for this? FML

You know you can still say no, right? Just because you're married doesn't mean you're forced to have sex every time he wants to. If you aren't feeling it say no. If you want him to put some effort in tell him so.

If he saved himself for marriage too and you're the kind of people who have a moral issue with things like ****, masturbation, sex ed etc., he might simply not know any better. Sit him down, tell him that women generally don't come as quickly and easily as men and that we usually need some work before the actual sex can happen. Good luck.

I always wonder what people who save themselves for marriage expect. It seems that it's not something that's realistic.

What if this is the incredibly depressing follow-up to the FML by the woman who waited for marriage only to have her husband "accidentally" put it in the wrong hole????

At least he's interested in you. He could just ignore you, and jerk off every night while you stay in bed wondering why you aren't good enough.

Tbh, I don't understand not having sex before marriage. How do you know what you like, don't like, etc. Unless you explore it safely with someone you trust.

Only a fool would buy a car without driving it. Only a fool would buy a house without going inside. Only a fool would get married without having had sex with their partner on a regular basis. It's the only way to know if you are sexually compatible.

Maybe that worked for someone else, its your job to tell him what you like!

Always take him for a test drive before marrying. Always.

I feel like the "He's not a mind reader!" excuse only works to a certain degree. It's a good excuse for him being bad at foreplay, or not knowing what his wife likes. It's not so great an excuse for none at all. Hell, unless he's already been day dreaming himself into a raging boner, most guys take a little more foreplay than that, so it's a little selfish to expect OP to roll over and already be good to go.

Your fault, you should test before buying. Other way is to explain him what foreplay is, and guide him. He doesn't know what are you thinking, communication is the key.
